Cash Game Player/Table Ratings

[otbdave]

A good friend of mine pointed me to this site last night and it looks like this will be an indispensable free tool for the cash game players out there.

This website is basically like the "OPR for cash game players" and you can look up anyone and their wins and losses. Furthermore, it has a live table rating system where it pulls all cash games on Full Tilt or Stars and rates the table based on how many losing players and how "juicy" the table is. This way, you can pick tables loaded with losing players instead of a table full of regs.

It has only been tracking since March but claims it tracks over 95% of hands, so their DB is now looking pretty nice! The site is planning some major improvements still where player profiles will include detailed reports on how they play instead of just their win/loss. Also, they will hopefully eventually implement a rating system for each stake on each site.

Without further adieu, Online Poker Table Selection and Power Tools - Player Statistics.

Although a decent tool for those who know about them I hate these sites and I think they are ruining online poker. I even hate sharkscope, I used to be a paying member of it but have now found without it I am playing better again. I used to look for the easy games then find out bad players can wake up with good hands. I also started to underestimate certain players because sharkscope said they were bad and in the long run I am now doing much better with my own notes. I truly hope cash games cannot be tracked to the extent that sngs can for the simple point sharks are following fish to tables EVERY day. The fish are coming up against tougher opponents than an average player would and eventually they will just give up the game. I really do believe these sites give players an unfair advantage. I tried to find myself at Cake and Carbon and failed so Im happy with that at least.

I don't have time to actually use the table selection tool for the most part. In order to finish my sessions in the time I have to do so I have to take the first 12 seats available. I also would not alter my play due to someone's winrate I already have pokertracker for that.

Mostly I found the site very amusing, especially some of the bigger winners and losers, and it was nice to look up some of the regular players at my limit to see how they do over a huge sample. I don't datamine much so my wins/losses on them are meaningless.

As far as unfair advantage, I think it is not as much so as pokertracker. Someones wins/losses does not really tell you how to play them. However, I would never give up pokertracker because I would put myself at too big of a disadvantage by not using it.

With all that being said, that is one of the things I love about Cake is the banning of tracking software. I definitely prefer noone have it, but if its allowed, I am using it. I am here to make money and the big guys at tilt are there to decide whats fair.

Yes, if its there its in everyone advantage to use it but I just wish it wasnt there. I think Carbon poker is against most hud software and doesnt seem to pop up in many of these sites either so Im happy here. Im a little alarmed that Bodog has popped up here as when I was on sharkscope I dont think that even that supported Bodog. But Ive just had another look at the site and currently you cannot search any player who plays below .50 .1 at any site. No wonder I couldnt find myself.
