    Anyone else completely fed up with Poker Prophecy? It gives general idea of skill level in SNG's but is consistently 3 - 5% off and misses a ton of games. For me, for instance, it shows 37.2% win percentage primarily at $50 level. My own stats show > 40%. We're talking about almost 600 games played, there shouldn't be this big of a disparity.

    I advocate avoiding this software, speaking from experience... unless you can accept getting "more or less" the idea of the talent at your sit and go. Anybody else have thoughts? Is there a better tracking program out there for SNG's?

    Thanks.

    Personally I use SNG Tracker, and manually enter all of my tournament data. I think you can synchronize it with Pokertracker, but I prefer manually importing. Gives you graphs of ITM, ROI, profit, and a bar graph of your finishes. You can put a bunch of filters in as well.

    p.s. search sng tracker program in google and you shoudl find the dl site

    Thanks Phoenix. Will give it a try.... Added the link just in case some people hadn't heard of it. It gives 5 free tries in case you care to test my hypothesis.

    partypoker also freezes your account if they see that site in your files. I had a friend who used it and they froze his.

    I don't know of anyone who has gotten their account frozen, but I do know that party doesn't like pokerprophecy very much and they aren't terribly accurate. Sharkscope says they will be adding Party at some point and they should be much more in line with accurate stats.

    That is true of Dise as well... also, even mentioning Prophecy (in jest or otherwise) will get your chat turned off indefinitely. Happened to several people.

    Need to remove the link. Prophecy is highly illegal

    Illegal ? Don't think so. Some sites might not like it - and it might be against their T&C but illegal in the wider sense of the word - no way!

    Every time I bring up Poker Prophecy I get a message from party saying it is against their policy to use it and they will shut down the account if I keep using it.

    I hope people try to use poker prophecy to get an idea of how good I am when playing them cuz it is totally off and says I'm a lot worse than I am. It says I've played 388 games when I've played over 2500 in the last year.
