has anybody heard of or seen someone "scan" another players hand on any of the internet casinos? i have seen some talk of a computer program that will "scan" the other players hole cards and show them to the cheat. anybody else heard of this?

i agree w/ everybody that acting out at the table is uncalled for and b/s. but in espn's defence they are showing the wsop to a world people who never knew about no-limit poker until they say the shows. ilike the way they show the wsop because it helps the game grow.if all they showed was a bunch of people sitting around chit-chating and playing poker it would not get any ratings, except from us sick puppy's who watch the wsop coverage like it is a class at college. i for one have earned a lot o money from people who never have played a day in a brick and morter casino and will dump $500 dol

like annie or not she is still one of the better players in the world, i would not want her sitting at my table.i think that tourny showed the world alot about raymer, if i could win every showdown w/ A high and spike an ace i could win too.( don't get me wrong he played his chipstack well, but he got lucky. like all wsop winners. ) raymer tried the same style at the tourny of champions and was shot down. it just goes to show that good smart play and experience pays off and luck only goes so far.as far as phil saying annie is a 30 to 1 shot, if he would take his head out of his ass for a look

try playing in the free games for awhile. i know the play sucks but it might help you get throught the slump. it works for me.also do not go to no-limit from limit play when your confidence is shot, no-limit is all about confidence. gear down to a lower limit or just take a break for a week or two.don't let those bad beats get you down, just don't try to gain all your money back in one night, always play w/ a leavel head and when you feel confident.you will get through this it just takes time. good luck, i hope this helps
