From looking at these pics, it seems like you could just look at your opponents monitor and see their cards... wtf? are they tilted in some special way that you can't??? [/ QUOTE ] Card protection is no problem. Touch the screen in a designated spot and the corners of the cards are revealed. Easy to conceal with your hands or whatever. Even if you don't the protective screen would make it nearly impossible for someone sitting to your side to see your cards. ~ Rick |

Even if the player doesn't protect his eCards with his hand, it's very hard to see through the individual screen's protective covers from the side. ~Rick |

My opinion has changed on these tables as I am for them TO AN EXTENT NOW.
After doing some research on rake and stuff I think that I would want a FEW of these tables in the room under these circumstances. 1) They have a jackpot drop. I'll stay at my hand dealt game. While my odds of winning a jackpot might go down a little since the electronic tables will be playing 2x as many hands as me. The jackpots I do win will be 2x's as big. Bigger Jackpots = more players woo |

Let's say table A and table B both share the same jackpot pool. Assume table A is much faster than table B. Assume this is not due to the betting action (i.e., games where people play any ace or any pair are more likely to hit a jackpot); rather, it is due to the speed of the dealer and players. Table A is more likely to hit a jackpot in any given time period, but it also contributes more to the jackpot pool in that same time period. The chances that either table will hit a jackpot for any given hand are the same. OTOH, if the jackpot is offering an overlay that will disappear once the jackpot is hit, you want to play at the faster table. ~ Rick |

A part of me is intrigued by these new tables as I have tried the demo version during the Borgata Classic. The other part of me reall, really doesn't want to see these things catch on and become the norm instead of standard B&M tables. I mean, if I wanted to play video game style poker I would stay home and be on my computer.
