Jaws Is Back. Run For Your Lives!!

Not your average Steven Spielberg film but we all know how menacing looking jaws were in that film with its sharp teeth. They can have more bite than we can chew and similarly if jaws would have taken a hold of our chips we would have a big chunk of chips teared up away from our grasps. This big fish is a predator we commonly known on the felt as the shark.

They are constantly lurking around pool of fishes eagerly awaiting their next meal. This vicious cycle of predator and prey have been around since you know when. But when you are playing online, it is always hard even if you are the bigger fish of the small fish.

Who says online poker is child's play? Yes, you can play up to a few cents at stakes at online poker compared to when you are playing with real games. It isn't all that convenient that you come around a live game just to play a few cents?

But knowing how popular poker are right now, everybody is playing it. Along with it, there are tracking tools made available for online poker. This specific tool is one bit annoying. It is called the sharkscope. You can search for anybody almost anywhere at the online poker room and see how they are doing.

You can find how well he is doing with his ROI, return of investments and his state of mind. Yes, this tool can allow you to read your opponent's mind even if he is wearing an aluminium thin foil hat. But wait, this is not a damper yet because you can still use it back to check up on players you have noted earlier to be fishy in their games.

So it can really be an advantage and disadvantage at the same time. If you think playing online poker is for the kids, you might want to think again. The next fish might just be you. However ironic it may seems, this tool certainly is not privacy friendly.
