Correct.

RealKidPoker Daniel Negreanu My best table draw thus far. None of my opponents have any tournament wins or any significant cashes. Hope I can take advantage.

Poker's a weird spectator sport when people can't see the cards. It's almost like playing Starcraft with the fog of war on everything.

and sc2 players complain about buyins.

I find that playing poker in a professional setting is more about playing people than playing the cards themselves.

That's true, but it also helps not being result-oriented. I think I learn more watching without the cards than when we see them

stream cheating is easy for pros with a social network of assistants scouting online. phil helmuth was said to have admitted to this. Your very question was answered in the broadcast of the european wsop, and afterward they cited the phil helmuth tactic.

A lot of players have headphones and listening to musics. Not sure if iphone is allowed, but with iphone cheating could be done very easy. Also someone could mod the mp3 player as a one-way radio? So they can get updates from their "partner" to get an edge,
I think it is more interesting to watch poker without knowing the cards, it is more educational as well.

Only time it had been done there was cheating (there's a case in tribunal right as we speak in France). You just have to have a partner in the audience who makes signs while watching the live broadcast.
