I was playing PS last night and when I sat down to start it up there was a new version of the client ready for DL. I didn’t notice anything different in this version, not that I usually do, but then I saw it, after you muck you hand you can mouse over your icon and see your hole cards. I didn’t think much of it, but then I started noticeing myself checking it out more often. WOW if I kept that 46 off suit I would have turned a straight.
It almost drove me to be much more loser with my hole cards, but luckily I have a short cheat sheet with starting hands and their odds that I like to play with. This is something that I will ahve to post another time. It is great if you want to play tight, but it can also be a detriment if you are playing at a relatively tight table. As the rule of thumb goes, the tighter the table the looser your play and visa-versa.
Anyway, I think that PokerStars is going to notice a jump in VP$IP, especially in the lower limit games where the players are a lot less disciplined anyway.
So what do you think about the new software?
