Where do these stats come from?

sharkscope

It's a website that tracks the results of players and displays graphs and stuff.

Don't worry too much about people slagging others off.

IMO, it's usually the ABC players who slag off everyone, because they can't understand the moves.

People who use sharkscope stats at the table should be chatbanned.

no they shouldnt, people have the choice to turn these stats off and if they have not so good stats then they should have the confidence to use this to there advantage, and the reason realy why i say they shouldnt be chat banned is because i do it sometimes because i get players trying to attack me via the chatbox prob because of my name and i get great pleasure in telling the table just how good he or she is, then after that can get back to the game knowing the table knows the waight of the players words.

TBH, I find it pretty sad when people revert to SS stats as some kind of proof of superiority.

Suppose it's different if someone is having a go at you for no real reason, but generally those who resort to stats are usuallly pretty poor, ABC players

Starting on SS stats with no provocation is out of line .

Trotting them out to cut down numpties who think they know everything and are omgwtfawesome and are lecturing the whole table on how much they suck is priceless imho

Yes yes!! Tight aggressive ABC poker bookworm boring predictable average Joe slim win complaining players, they are the worst I find. Poker is very much a situational game, and the better players use the situational opportunities to thier advantage.

pffft its information and a tool to be utilised to achieve what you want like everyting else in poker. im always checking out the pple im up against and if i think i can tilt/gain an edge over sum1 by telling the table they are -50% roi/are a monsta/over their heads/etc then i will.

btw tony ur name tilts the F outta me....it shudnt but it just does.. :0

thanks for the input all ... now i have to rush over to sharkscope and block my account, cos, frankly, my record sucks! Been playing for about 9 months now and already $250 down ... my biggest problem is this: if i play when I'm alert, I can usually make it into the money, maybe win in a 10-seat SnG ... but if I'm tired after a long day (which is often) I make poor calls, and go all-in when i shouldn't, and get punished. I tell myself I shouldn't play at all at those times ... but, man, it's hard to stay away from the tables...

@Chiv totally agree

@Modge think Ive just been pwned

Doesnt everyone run off to SS as soon as some tard sucks out and starts lolling/berating them?

SS can be a lovely place that offers much love and warmth after a cold and bitter suckout unless your me and you check your own stats to see how fecking long the swings been boshing your ass /no comments please.

I reset my SS when I improved my game.. got an awful bollocking over it in a game last night, put me on tilt and lost the game, still deciding if I should report it to CS or not... Seriously belittled me when I was contemplating a call "better reset your ss again" .. made me almost call lol... but yeah it was not an enjoyable game to say the least.

Jack, yours is not bad at all! people will see that as a mere downswing which is now on the rise.
What you do is go to options and reset username
You need to be a paying member I think... its only like 9$ for 200 searches, enough to last me anyhow for a few months.
