Live feeds and hole cards: Ethics and considerations

[MANTIS01]

So if you made the final table with no iphone etc / rail, you would have been at a disadvantage then

Doesn't seem right.

very good

[gatso]

I give up lol

You couldn't use phone at table!

Don't know who commentated but the commentators were locked in the only room where the actual live feed was surrounded by the 3 man production crew!

but what's to stop one of the production crew texting someone on the rail who signals to a player who's been stalling over a difficult decision? with the amount of money at stake I think anyone having access to a live feed with holecards is really dangerous. surely the commentary can be done as it's aired rather than live

[MANTIS01]

Loving the irony of calling someone a coward with an anon post on the internet.

also good

why would the production crew do this? it's their reputation at stake, hey i tried to get a peek at the back room and trust me no one was getting in there! and there was no way to watch the stream at dtd.

No but the charger can be used for my portable kettle

surely any one with a rail of half decent poker players, observing when not streamed
would have a slight advantage if he was getting  decent feed bad during breaks cant see any one accusing them of cheating



the more interesting point is showing hole cards and length of delay

and how it may or may not effect your play  with these circumstances

[gatso]

why would the production crew do this?

serious question? money perhaps

and there was no way to watch the stream at dtd.

there clearly was otherwise the couldn't have done the commentary live

Think LeKnave has come across really badly in this thread

Seems like the sort of lad who would mug an old granny given the oppourtunity

ok edit that to not to anyone outside of that secret back room i wasn't allowed in.

I think the production crew set to gain a lot more from the rent / sales of their equiptment, why risk future business to make a small %? I spent a while chatting to these guys the tech they use is awesome and they are extremely passionate about their product.

I think that I prefer the whole live feed/hole-card scenario better when the hole-cards are only visible when there's a flop a la WSOP.

It doesn't seem fair to me that a player's full strategy should get exposed.

I wouldn't have thought MP's would risk their jobs, reputations, and a prison sentence to make a few k on expenses either. They come across as passionate about stuff. Then steal our money.

It would be a marv long-term grim to get in that room imo.
