Default Re: Poker, FOV, and Response of the brain

Hmm... that's interesting. I was considering a second monitor, but I feel I'd want the tables on the right screen, and reference material on the left. Same way I tend to do it with one screen. I'm right handed, if that affects the discussion.

But then I tend to look slightly over to my right shoulder when I concentrate on something to. Guess that could all be part of being right handed.

In any event, I seem to remember from health classes somewhere that information crosses from one side of the brain to the other through the a bundle of connecting nerves. Which is what they shred when a lobotomy is done. Though I cannot recall what that structure was called, nor was I able to find exactly what I was looking for in a quick look on the web.

So my belief was, that as long as that connection was there, there would be some transfer of abilities from one side to the other. But that may be mistaken. Anyone else know for sure? Perhaps the corpus callosum?
