Poker, FOV, and Response of the brain

Could the position of things in ones field of view effect how the brain deals
with the incoming information?

In this day of the mega display (19" and up) more of ones field of vision is
filled with information. Based on human tendency to be either left brained or
right brained (hair brained not withstanding) it stands to reason that spatial
location of objects in the FOV are processed by different parts of the brain.

There are studies that have shown that when the two halves of the brain are
separated they clearly take on different roles.
"With their communications link severed, each side of the patient's brain was
functioning independently. Although this did not prevent his ability to walk,
talk and eat, some unexpected findings were encountered in some of the higher
brain functions when each side was examined independently of the other.
The right hand and eye could name an object, such as a pencil, but the patient
could not explain what it was used for. When shown to the left hand and eye, the
patient could explain and demonstrate its use, but could not name it. Further
studies showed that various functions of thought are physically separated and
localized to a specific area on either the left or right side of the human
brain. This functional map is consistent for an estimated 70 to 95 percent of
us." Quoted from Dan Eden at http://www.viewzone.com/bicam.html

My idea is that by keeping stimuli to one side or the other we can control, to
some degree which side of our brain processes the information.

It is important to remember that the human body is cross wired so that the left
side of the brain control the right side of the body and vice versa.

A perfect example would be the playing of online poker. Since the left side of
the brain is the side most suited to dealing with numbers and logical reasoning
I suspect that keeping your poker table (or tables) to the right side of the
screen, or to the right most of a dual monitor setup should force the left brain
to process most of the incoming information.

I'm interested in everyone’s comments on this.
