QFT

nothing beats shuffling/playing with your chips *chik chikikik*, being dealt real cards, spitting at your cards as you muck 'em...

the "feel" of playing live poker will be gone... might as well play at home...

i cant play without a mouse

Anyone else think minraising would be more common at these tables?
onk stabs raise button*
onk grins!*

And there would be no need at all for any kind of verbal interaction.
"I'm all in."
"Yeah, I can see that, idiot."
@_@

..and the griping about "misclicks"? =/

It's like this in the MTL casino.,..

at first its nice, but it gets boring pretty quick, and people don't like it after a while,.... your missing out on the feeling it feels to play poker with chips, and also, it doesnt speed up the game at much, because they is no clock, so people can take 5 minutes for a decision

Yay, one tabling online poker at a casino! ^_^v

I've never played live poker but I don't think this will eventually take over the entire part of live poker that's still done with real cards, chips and an actual dealer that has a heart (and maybe even a brain) and everything. I think too many people will like the normal way of playing live poker and once they miss out on people playing because of this they would accomodate the customer. Not sure, but we'll see... I think it will all be alright...

Why didn't they make a simple screen around the displays?
I can see many many many ways this can go wrong. You lift your hand to grab a drink and your cards are open for everybody to see. Not to mention the fact it's very annoying and uncomfortable to have to sit with your hand in the same position all the time.

Nah, it's probably like you hold your hand there when cards are dealt and when you've seen them, you tap the screen and they flip over so that you'll only see the back of them.

WTF THIS SUCKS

meh
i think id probably do better at these tables to start off but i think id rather play around with chips and shit

This is prolly a great opportunity to take advantage of all this fish trying something new. Once the novelty wears off it sucks though.

PS- I wonder if your screen turns into a big red fold or all in when. I wonder if they thing talks and says "bet 1000 from player 6", "call from player 4" etc.

don't like the idea, and i'll never play at a casino that has this.

fuck the hating, non-knowing cunts

this was fun in macau

can i bring my underwear?
