I hate the incognito way acr is doing their website for cash games

[chuckycheese]

I hate it, I like to watch and see the action, when not playing. why did they start hiding the names. and their stacks they must have a reason but I think it sucks

For a few weeks now been like that, and yea it is lame.

And i hate for example some sharkscope thing tracking all my little wins and losses. Or bum hunting. And after all you can still watch the action on the table. Just not the names or stack sizes. Whats so important about that anyway.

Do you bum hunt?

If you're good at the game I don't see an issue, you can also sit at a table and see everyone's stack and who they are, and then you can leave if you don't like it.

I misunderstood. I thought he meant completely hidden entire time like some sites do (bodog) with the names. Yea that's fine. I play mostly zoom so it wouldn't affect me at all.

Each site has its own terms and conditions, it is their right. I think you should always rely only on your skills and experience. This is the main thing.

it is what it is.

They did it to stop illegal datamining and excessive bum hunting. When I played cash games, I hated people, who joined a starting table with several empty seats, only to right away sit out and observe the action before deciding, if they wanted to play. Table selection will always be a part of cash games, but I think, its totally fair, that you need to sit in and pay the blinds, before you can start observing other players. And if you dont like the table, then just sit out and leave on the next round of blinds.

ACR worried that someone gonna log into the darkwebz and buy up little Jimmy's NLH10 stats.

Hackers would fleece him for 10's of dollars!

ACR has to make it enjoyable for the recreational players, I doubt that the regs and those playing the higher limits will care that much, unless they bum hunt.

No numbers for players, and you have to pay a BB first to see the players. I just had this hand at a $2 bomb pot table and had no takers.
