Default Re: Congratulations WPEX on dumbest improvement ever

Actually you are quite off as you must not play on wpex. HUDs are not useable since there were no names in hand histories. There was some software to get around it for sometime and then I think support dropped off. I was tempted a few times to go through the hassle of using a bunch of programs to get a workable hud going but I felt that it was better to simply play it the way that the GM wanted.

The reason the change upsets me is that now I can not track my own results via pokertracker for tax info and for just general examination of my hands.

For tax info:

Write down the time you started playing.
Write down the time you finished playing.
Write down the amount of money you won or lost.

You don't have to have documentation of every single hand for tax purposes. This would be silly and unrealistic. Do you think pros who play live-poker in B&M's write down every time they won a $40 pot or lost $5 because they limped then folded?

So the tax-purposes argument seems a bit odd to me.

sorry you cant play without huds and pt

Since they are now specifically referencing datamining in their disclaimer about it I think they are implying that they are allowing PT and other software on these tables.

They essentially are saying they listened to all the 2+2'er who complained that they never play there because of no HUD's.

That's what it looks like to me anyway.

At least we can collude now. I'm going to go round the team up Danny Ocean-style.

Good, I hope all the sites make it impossible for you to datamine, and your site is worthless. You [censored] baby.

You are a little late to the party. You should have been colluding at WPX when they were 100% rakeback and there was no handhistory names

Why not make the non-HH tables still have HH w/o player names like the old HH? Then you could still track your own stats on these tables and also have the hand # for AA promo.

Yeah, I don't understand this either. Why in the world would a site not want to you be able to look at YOUR OWN HANDS?. I had no problem playing with no names in the HH, I will have no problem playing with names in the HH. But I do have a problem without being to download MY OWN STATS.

If this is indeed the case anyway. Has anybody played a session at a non-HH table to know for sure?

WPEX has now implemented no hand history tables. So now everyone is free to collude. Also, if fish decide to play on the tables it is now a complete pain in the ass to get info for reporting taxes.
Oh and think about how easy it is to lose with your aces and then lose the hand history number forever because the next hand folded through before you write down the number for aces never lose.

ye well ant u just play on the yes handhistory tables?? is you dumb or what>>>>

Thank you.

You have a choice. You can play on the HH tables or the non-HH tables. The HH tables have all of the table names.

If you don't want to be datamined, play on the non-HH tables. You want to datamine others and be datamined yourself, enjoy the full HH tables.

You can't please everyone. But we're trying.
