Protecting Weaker Players or Avoiding Controversy?
GGPoker claims that the decision to block SharkScope was made to protect "weaker players" from ❤️ being targeted by more experienced opponents. By preventing players from accessing others' tournament records, GGPoker said it is aiming to ❤️ create a more level playing field and improve the overall poker ecosystem.
The company maintains that the timing of this decision ❤️ is unrelated to the launch of its new Tournament Honours feature, which provides players with a summary of their tournament ❤️ achievements.
Despite GGPoker's rationale, many players have criticised the decision to block SharkScope, arguing that the move limits transparency and makes ❤️ it more difficult for players to detect when something is amiss with a particular group of players.
Sharkscope posted the news ❤️ on its social media channels.
