iPoker Introduces Anonymous Cash Game Tables

[PokerDonV73]

Players at the iPoker network will have the option of playing completely anonymously on certain rooms
The new Anonymous tables offer you the chance to hide yourself from all other players. This way, your opponents will not be able to see your nickname, avatar, or get any information on your playing style via tracking software.
These tables can be found in iPoker client lobbies under "All Tables" by selecting to show "Anonymous" tables on your ring game filters.
All Anonymous tables are titled "Anonymous" followed by numerals, and are indicated by a mask icon.

Personally I don't think it is a very good idea. it motives cheating, collusion, bots (so many already on Ipoker, whis is well known!). and indeed it would not attract regulars really.

I really wonder what made them make this decision? what advantages do they see?

Sounds like they are taking a play right out of the Bovada playbook! It really is a great feature!

Well I kno Bovada does it because it attracts bad players and pushes away regs. Since regs withdraw and sucky players don't, it makes more money for them. Pretty lame to mimic the worst feature in online poker.

That is fine just profile players on a per table basis ... like you would IRL....

[ROOKMAN]

Don't like anonymous poker myself. Will not play at Bovada for this very reason.

i hate this feature. way too fishy imo.

[royalpat]

sounds very fishy to me too i would not do it

I'm not a fan of anonymous games. But as an option I like it. It's fine to have the choice. I wish Bovada would have made it a "choice".
