is Ignition poker anonymous tables actually a good thing or does it just hide bad players?

so i’ve been messing around on a few sites with these so-called anonymous tables and i keep wondering if they’re actually helping the game or just making it even harder to spot fish and adjust. i get the argument that it levels the playing field for new players, but doesn’t it just push all the bad habits under the rug instead of encouraging real improvement? hard to keep notes or use anything you learn from session to session. feels kinda like you’re always playing the guessing game.

am i missing something here, or does anyone else think it kind of wrecks the whole table dynamic?

I just care whether the site pays reliably and keeps the rake fair, not if the guy across from me is “improving” his game. Do anonymous tables kill real trust when it comes to site support if a payout dispute pops up?

Losing session history burns more bankroll fast. Have you found tracking software that helps at all?

I miss the long-term edge of tracking leaks, but it does slow predatory bumhunting - would you rather trade strategy for safety?

i’m not a fan, it kills the edge you get from reading people and punishes those who actually track patterns, so yeah it turns every hand into pure guesswork instead of skill. online casinos use it as a selling point but honestly it just means more random play and less real growth at the table.
