Re: Computerized Poker Tables
I really hate this idea. However, what if they just had a robot dealer? I think the tech is a long way off, but what would you think of that, assuming it still uses real cards and chips?

Re: Computerized Poker Tables
I love the idea of a robot dealer, as long as it worked and the procedure for returning the cards back to the bot worked. This is a tough procedure for a robot, though.
As for the computer poker tables...if they have some of the computerized computer tables and some of the regular tables, that might be OK, since then everyone could get what they preferred. However, a total switchover sounds like a bad idea. How much chatter would there be at a computerized table? Not much, I'd imagine.

Re: Computerized Poker Tables
I think this is a great idea. I'm surprised something isn't already in casinos where they spread multiplayer poker games on video-poker machines. At the very least, players on a waiting list for a real game would be playing on them.

Re: Computerized Poker Tables
How would one protect his or her hole cards in such an automated game?

Re: Computerized Poker Tables
Why don't they open up a site strictly for casino goers and then rent out laptops?
