Default Re: WSOP - XRay Vision Winning Chances

don't know about you guys, but i'd win if i could see other peoples' cards

we're talking every single hand, you know exactly what everybody is doing and from this information can determine exactly how to respond... think about it -- you pick up KK and somebody has AA you will know IMMEDIATELY... you dont even have to call the BB.

you also don't have to have any starting hand requirements because 1) you can always tell if you have the best hand 2) you never have to worry about being put in a 'what's his kicker?' situation.

i would be willing to bet that you could still win even if you folded every time someone put you all-in and you didnt have them drawing dead (which would only happen in the beginning, as you would be steadily increasing in chips from making perfect reads and stealing pots when other people have junk)

i would bet all the money i have on that person making the payout, and believe they would win at least 50% of the time, if not more -- barring any flaws in their play. sklansky, negreanu, ivey, hellmuth win 75% of the time.
