Re: New technology in Poker tables: -EV or +EV?
Maybe +EV in the strictly cash sense. No dealer tokes, plus maybe more fish - people who aren't comfortable sitting at a regular table, but who will play video poker or something similar might be more comfortable sitting at one of these. Maybe. You could also pick up on some physical tells that you would not get at home on the computer.
Most people aren't pros, though. We play because we love to play poker, and in that sense, whether the game is +EV or not is a personal choice. I don't like the idea of this as much as playing with cards and chips. It's probably -EV for me when the "Value" is something other than cash.
