Anonymous Poker Tables Launch at Online Poker Sites

Oct 26, 2010

Many people claim the anonymous nature of the Internet is one of its greatest strengths, and it seems as though a few online poker rooms may be taking that concept to its logical end. Cool Hand Poker and Ladbrokes Poker have announced the launch of anonymous tables, giving players a way to play poker without having their identity revealed to their opponents in any manner.
The move seems to be aimed at leveling the playing field for those who do not use any form of poker tracking software. Programs such as PokerTracker allow players to collect data on their opponents, potentially giving them an informational edge at the table. With anonymous tables, it becomes impossible to know who you are playing from one session to the next, meaning that tracking software becomes virtually useless for gaining information on other players.
“We are really excited about this launch,” said Kate McLennan, head of poker at Ladbrokes Poker. “Never before have poker players been able to play without other players knowing who they are. This brings an added element to the game for people whose playing style may be recognisable. For those new to the game, it is an opportunity to try some different moves without getting a reputation because players will simply never know who they are playing against.”
The ability of players to use poker tracking software to compile information on opponents has long been a source of division among players. While learning the playing styles and betting patterns of other players was always a part of the game, even in live poker, the ability to keep a database of perfectly accurate data on one’s opponents was an innovation brought about by online poker hand histories. While almost all players see the value in such software, some feel that tactics such as datamining or buying hand histories from third party sources goes too far, and that players should only be able to use data from hands they played in.
It remains to be seen how players will react to the concept of anonymous tables. Some players are likely to see it as the next step in combating datamining tactics, while others speculate that anonymous tables will be unpopular, as they make the game too impersonal and don’t allow players to gain an edge even by studying their opponents in more traditional ways.

This is my idea. The UK just asks me, and i give advice

Quick note - the only people who play here are the confident very good players, who will still mop up the fish. The super agressive players who have a name for being suepragressive, or just morons who dont want to be mocked. This will just be a fish fest, with a couple of good people thrown in. All the normal people will still be at the names tables.
