HUD users and developers who profit from selling them to players like to point to the fact that heads up displays aren’t technically “stealing” data. I think using HUDs during games is borderline cheating, and I wouldn't have to be convinced much that it is definitively.īasically, HUDs collect data on everyone you play against and then put it into numbers displayed right next to your opponent’s seat at the table. This applies to every every Texas Hold'em and Omaha game. Players are only given a number from 1-9 and can never be tracked across tables. While some poker sites have pussyfooted around with anonymous tables, Ignition applies them across every cash game, Zone (fast-fold) game, Sit and Go (including Heads-up), and tournament. A ll identifying data blocked from all games.

The result? They’re still one of the loosest poker sites online, open to US players, and have grown exponentially since introducing anonymous tables. It was a brilliant idea that the rest of the industry is starting to catch up with. Ahead of their time. I stand and applaud them as forerunners to ban poker HUDs.

I thought something along the lines of “What is the point of a gimmick like that?” Yes, I was still fairly naïve about the effect of HUDs in online poker. I believe they were the first to introduce them.
#POKER COPILOT MAC SOFTWARE#
I remember being mildly amused and somewhat annoyed when Bovada (the ancestor of Ignition Poker) announced that they would be making their entire poker software anonymous back in 2011.
#POKER COPILOT MAC MANUAL#
I think that's a good balance of blocking HUDs, but still allowing you to take manual notes on players if you choose to. However, when you look at your hand history, all other players will have anonymous player names. You'll still see usernames and can take notes on players. One interesting thing about Global Poker is that they don't have anonymous tables.
