I think any difficulties like that could be quickly overcome... particularly playing 6-max. Also, having playing regularly on almost all Euro sites I am already very familiar with all software.

I imagine we would also have some test sessions on the mini stakes to build highly effective communication foundations between ghoster and player.

HU could be problematic but certainly 3 handed+ could be very profitable. I believe the bulk of profits would come from multi handed games anyway where there are less poker speciliasts and simply more gamblers.

There are a number of high liquidity sites with very active games, e.g. ipoker network, Ladbrokes, Party Poker, Everest, Betfair. All of these have very juicy high stakes games infested with fish.

To be honest I am surprised this idea has not been proposed previously...or perhaps it is actually something players already do?

If anyone would like to PM me to discuss in detail please feel free.

I would be willing to do something like this for no profit. I would not be able to put up any funds. PM me if interested.

Mark.

The remote access for US players is not the problem. Someone could just set up a proxy in Europe and then the US players could use their own machines. The problem is a Europe address.

I believe ghosting is allowed by most sites. There are many instances of team play ongoing that are tolerated by both players and site operators.

I'll take the over ;-)

Access to ghosters thoughts and play processes would in turn open up their fish pool to me!

+EV for me and the ghosters

-EV for fish worldwide

I am still undecided on the ethics of the whole project, though I am leaning towards it not being a problem.

Correct me if i'm wrong but couldn't you take this one step further and remote access his PC and then click the buttons yourself?

I'm actually surprised nobody is offering a service of a European computer being used for the sole use of remote access and US players using them. Or maybe it's just a silly idea?
