Default Re: Salon.com article about poker: \"Requiem for a poker game\"

It's actually a decent article. I actually agree that the game has become too "mechanical" as I'm not at all a fan of PokerTracker or HUDs.

That's unfortunate.

I thought the article was meh. Kind of like "poker was better in the good ole days before those robotic internet players started competing".

I love online poker and I play all the time. I just think that all these "tools" that are available are making decisions for people and I don't think that's right. Some of the HUDs and data mining services are allowing morons who know little about the game to be successful and that's a problem.

Online poker just doesn't resemble live, real poker much anymore and that's unfortunate.
