HonestHoldem Terms and Conditions
guys,
assuming the population was sufficient would you play at an online site that had these terms and conditions ******** HonestHoldem Terms and Conditions Multiple Accounts You are allowed to register multiple times at our site. The first registration is free. Subsequent registrations cost $10 and must be accompanied by a $100 deposit before you'll be allowed to use it. It's in our best interest to encourage deposits. You can register as many times as you like, we dont care, as long as you're willing to pay the fee. Cash only - No credit cards We do not believe you should gamble on credit. If you play online then you need to own up to your responsibilities. We accept cash deposits only. It's supposed to hurt when you lose and feel good when you win. You are hereby advised to play at limits where you can bring 100 big bets or more to the table such that your risk of ruin is reduced. Hand Histories and the Muck Since the server has access to the entire hand history, it is not possible to prove that the muck is indeed 100% secure - i.e. that we did not share the server side hh with one or more of your opponents and not you. So at the end of each hand, the entire server side hh for that hand will be delivered to each participant in the hand free of charge. Hand History requests You may at any time buy any number of real money server side hh's for any hand where you did not participate at the cost of 1c per hh. The reason we do not offer these for free is that this service is resource intensive and has a cost associated with it. Connection Encryption Due to the fact that we are an internet site, we must provide encryption for your connection otherwise it is possible (in theory) for somebody to introduce a network sniffer between the server and you and learn about your card information and potentially gain edge over you. The reality of this encryption feature is that this makes it entirely impossible to prove that the server is not colluding with one or more of your opponents by sending them privileged information such as your cards or future cards. Therefore you are hereby notified that your only recourse is to accept, on good faith, that we serve our best interest by not engaging in such an activity. Pokerbotting We fully embrace all forms of artificial intelligence and you are hereby advised to seek out the best analysis tools available. Any and all email complaints about suspsected botting will be summarily dismissed. Tracking We fully embrace all forms of tracking. You are hereby advised to learn about tracking and seek out the best statistical tracking tools available. Any and all email complaints about suspsected tracking will be summarily dismissed. No IPSEC Restrictions We do not care about your IP address whatsoever. Nor do we attempt to limit seating based on the IP address of the connection. You may not sit at the same table with the same screen name more than once. You may seat yourself more than once at the same table as long as you use a different name for each instance. e.g. You cannot seat Adam and Adam but you may seat Adam and Bill. Identify Privacy No attempt will be made to inform your opponents that you are playing more than one chair. By this same policy no attempt will be made to inform you that one or more opponents might be the same entity. You are hereby advised to learn about teaming methods as well as to learn how to track them. Teaming No effort whatsoever will be made to prevent anybody from engaging in action at the table even if they are playing more than one hand. Our business model is tied to the rake therefore we have nothing to lose by letting you play more than 1 hand; it's your choice. If you play and generate rake then you are our friend and we intend to help you play in any way you see fit. The reason this policy exists is because there is no way to prove that any of your opponents did not share their cards (i.e. via phone, chat, voip, etc.) and as such you are allowed to avail yourself of any and all cardsharing techniques suitable to you. Our lives as internet poker providers are much simpler by not attempting to police this activity. Any and all email complaints about suspsected teaming will be summarily dismissed. Random Shuffling We implement player determined shuffling. Our game servers have no control over the outcome of the shuffle other than to apply a deterministic shuffling algorithm combined with random information collected from each client. This feature makes it possible for a gaming authority to randomly sample the shuffler for integrity. Chatting Manners Your chatting privileges can be revoked for the following: - not speaking english - threatening physical violence - using language more severe than the table rating (G,PG,PG13,R) Denial of Service You are hereby notified that we will take severe action against you if we believe that you are attempting to engage in any type of DOS attack upon our game servers. No other disclosure is offered to you insofar as what we're willing to do to you and your computer should you attempt to threaten our service. You have been warned. Be nice to us and we will be nice to you. *************** originally posted at: forum.winholdem.net/wbb/viewtopic.php?t=8483 |

Re: HonestHoldem Terms and Conditions
no one is interested in playing with bots, or colluders, or paying for hand histories. the first two ruin the game, and other sites don't charge for hh's so why should we have to pay for them? for example, i have 7875 hands at NL50 with a profit of about $840. so i'd lose about $79 off that profit to have my hand histories.

[/ QUOTE ] prove to me that the site didnt give you access to the muck thus giving you some edge that has contributed to your winnings. clarifiction: as a participant in the hand you dont pay for your current hh. it's free. the 1c charge is if you wanted to collect the hh's where you were not a participant. ray. |

[/ QUOTE ] note that the hand histories in question are a complete server side hand history which includes all card info for all opponents (i.e. the entire muck). datamining at other sites will get you client side hh's but not the entire muck. ann. dont you understand that it's not possible for a site to prevent your opponents from tracking, botting, teaming. one of the purposes of the honest holdem t&c is to tell you that truth. ray |
