Does he have somebody to whisper to his ears what he have or what is the deal? Do he ask every pot how much chips the people have left?

What if the assistent is bribed and whispers the wrong cards to the guy?

I read this story yesterday and was a bit surprised that they are letting someone do this. I guess they would not want the negative press that would come with telling a handicapped person that they cannot play because of their disability. It's still like 100x better than the guy with no arms who was looking at his hole cards with his feet. I'm sorry but that was just gross.

I agree, that guy last year was not funny to watch.

I have absolutely no idea what to think about this situation.

This proves how ridiculous Harrah's is and maybe it is because of the concern for receiving negative PR. But you can't speak a foreign language at the table and you can't have an IPhone, but someone can whisper in your ear what other players are doing and possibly how to play your hand? Don't get me wrong I feel bad that he's blind, but this shouldn't be allowed.

Would it really be good for poker if the blind man would make it real deep in the ME?

Honestly, I don`t know about that.

Wow you guys are dicks. The guy is f-ing blind. Give him a break. Do you really think this is some blind poker strategy expert and his tell-master prodigy assistant teaming up to gain an unfair advantage? Oh, and sory you were so grossed out by the guy with no arms. He should definitely not be allowed in a casino.
