PokerStars Allowed Poker Tools — 4 Comments

  1. In general, what kind of tools and services are acceptable?

    The following types of tools and services are generally acceptable:

    Tools and services that simply report basic game state information, such as pot odds or absolute hand strength.

    Tools and services that are static reference material and basic in nature, such as a single table-based starting hand chart.

    Tools and services that monitor and display numerical based statistics in-game, but make use of only information which you have accumulated through your own play.

    Macros and Hotkey programs that don’t have any bearing on gameplay logic. For example, you can use AutoHotKey, MacroExpress or AutoIt3 to make it such that you ‘bet the pot’ when you press the ‘P’ key, but you cannot use these or other utilities to create an autofolder that folds poor starting hands, or that automates advice or actions from any other tool or service.

  3. PokerStars banned Tools

    In general, what kinds of tools and services are prohibited?

    The following types of tools and services are prohibited:

    Any tool or service that shares hole card data with other players or services is colluding, and is prohibited.‡

    Any tool or service that works off of a central database of player profiles, hands played or private results is prohibited.

    Any tool or service that plays without human intervention (a ‘bot’) or reduces the requirement of a human playing. For instance, an ‘auto-folder’ is prohibited.
    The practice of datamining (observing games without playing in order to build up a database of hand histories for future reference) is prohibited.

    Any tool or service that offers real-time commentary or advice on the current game state that goes beyond reporting data and statistics.

    Any tool or service that is targeted towards the manipulation of opponents in games in which you are unable to choose a specific table to play on, such as Spin & Go’s

    ‡ Hosting live streams on Twitch and other similar services is not considered as sharing hole card data.
