poker prophecy

Has anyone heard of this? It looks interesting and Im considering trying it out, but im wondering will using something like this be frowned upon by FTP or other poker sites? Or is it just giving me a fair advantage?

Isn't this pretty much the same as Sharkscope?

As far as I can tell all it does is show you the percentage of times the person finishes in the money in SNG's. It's like a HUD for sharkscope, kinda.

There's a monthly fee for most of the sites of $19.99.

Not worth it imo.

Isn't this one of the data mining sites that are frowned upon by various sites?

I could be wrong about that, but I'm sure FT has a list of sites/programs that it doesn't like. I know PokerStars does.

A friend of mine was banned from Party Poker for using this program (when PP was still accepting US players). He loved the program but I believe it'll get you in trouble with most sites.

Here's my stats from it for Party (I used the free test), while I am a winning SnG player these seem plain wrong.

You'd think I would remember playing 2 $200 buy-in SnGs for a start!

Mrs Irexes has been know to play a $5 SnG but there's plenty here I can't explain.

Don't waste your money.

Actually it could be referring to the Steps tournies that Party started ages ago I guess. I did get pretty far in those at one point. Possibly the $200 level?

As for the $0 ones, I've no idea and I'd love to have that win % but it seems a few % too high.

What ChuckTs said.

I just did a search of myself there and it claims Ive only played 17 tournaments. I have played well over 100 at pokerstars, so Im not really sure where it only got 17.

I searched myself and the stats were WAY WAY WAY wrong.

It had me playing several turbos, which I've never played.
It had me playing HORSE, which I've never played.
It had me listed in $10, 6 person SNG, which I've never played.

Looks like you should have gone 1 higher if it was a step. I'd imagine you'd remember a big cash like that. Probably a grand.
