I actually don't feel as though I have a dog in this fight. I thought Monkeyf0cker and FuzzyD did a good job breaking things down.

There's always going to be extreme positions for or against. Looking at it through the eyes of a poker player who enjoys using third-party software, it's easy to see why the update isn't well received. Considering it from a business perspective, it's not tough to conclude that Bodog may not want their sportsbook players who may frequent the poker rooms to be hunted by poker sharps (maybe even SBRforum poker sharps ) using the aforementioned software.

No matter how you slice it, it's ultimately the book's right to disable, show, randomize or even capitalize the usernames. It's certainly a good and interesting discussion either way.
