Naismith 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Guys, I e-mailed FTP regarding some security issues. Essentially, so many accounts are getting frozen for a variety of reasons, I wanted to be clear about sweat sessions and their stance on AIM.Here was my e-mail:"I have a couple of questions regarding Heads Up NL.If I hire a coach and he watches me play on, say, TeamViewer and suggests moves for me to make, but never controls my account, is that okay or against the rules?If I use AIM during play to discuss hands while playing heads up (so there's no possibility of collusion as there would be in 6m or full ring), is that okay?Thanks"Their response:"Thank you for contacting Full Tilt Poker Support.Unfortunately team play by any means on our site is prohibited. Therefore discussing hands on AIM or live coaching during play is not permitted.If there's anything else we can help you with, please feel free to ask. We're always here to help.Regards,AmaanPoker SpecialistFull Tilt Poker Support" Link to post Share on other sites

The only part that sucks is I now assume AIM is off limits in general, even just for chatting with people even if nothing to do with poker?How do the people not intensely plugged into the forum scene know that these kinds of rules are in play? I'm fairly certain only a minority of Full Tilt poker players will actually find out about this stuff, only because they regularly browse forums. Even some players with poker forum accounts will probably miss out on this kind of stuff. Just seems ridiculous that Full Tilt is so ambiguous about it and they basically provide no recourse for players that aren't aware of these new rules. Link to post Share on other sites

Even some players with poker forum accounts will probably miss out on this kind of stuff. Just seems ridiculous that Full Tilt is so ambiguous about it and they basically provide no recourse for players that aren't aware of these new rules.I put it out there that anyone using Teamviewer/Mikogo is a regular on some sort of Forum. That only leaves the AIM or whatever ambiguity, and that is solved by a simple email along the lines of... As part of the Terms of Agreement you signed up with you allow FTP to monitor which other programs are running while the FTP is running. You have also agreed not to use instant messaging programs while playing at FTP, if you wish to chat on Instant messager please sit out using the sit out next hand option, or leave the table.Or something similar, which puts people at ease they aren't being spyed on too bad but also that they aren't allowed to use AIM. Will ftp send emalis like this, hell no, because their support sucks and theyll probably send; you were using AIM while playing, you are banned. And people will scream FTP is spying on me, ONRINE POKERZZZ IS RIGGED, they can see my cards and that's why I always lose. Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, is he shoving a boat like that? What's he think you'll pay off with here if he's got 67/77? Your turn flat may have done a good job under repping your hand. Link to post Share on other sites

FARGOpokerND 22 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I call.I guess I should add with no real consequence on the hand, that I DID call, but I am more wondering what type of hands I can expect a nit like that to turn up with in that spot. Especially one who I have never seen get out of line.Something like JJ or TT seems too risky...AA? KK? Random bluff? Link to post Share on other sites

He's repping 77/66 as the only hands that beat you. If he can have 76, he can probably have 65 and 68 as well.And bet this flop whenever checked to. I make a lot of plays on boards like these. Definitely bet them when you have it. Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely bet them when you have it.I probably bet 80% of the time when I flop something big and am checked to. In retrospect I think I should have fired flop, but I remember thinking to myself to check that flop for a change of pace.So pretty much I can narrow his range there to something like 65 68 67 66 77?Maybe AA KK if he went passive on me?
