I actually enjoyed watching the normal players make plays. It would be awesome to watch a "normal" tournament in this format

This thread is odd because it mainly consists of people saying "x is obvious" (where x is the proposition that Potripper could see hole cards) and either (a) not giving any evidence for x being true; or (b) giving evidence that does not support the claim; or (c) suggesting x is true because x is believed; or (d) evincing a lack of understanding of technology.

(a) I think comprises the majority of posts. People say either "x is clearly true" or even, bizarrely, "x is clearly true so we should do a statistical test to prove it."

(c) is also kind of common.
As to (b), the post below is a typical example. The poster argues that a called all-in against a busted flush is evidence that caller could see hole cards.

A player without access to hole cards might play this the same way. Where a player reads that another player had a flush draw that busted, it is not unreasonable to call with ten high.

Here, a player without access to the hole cards might have read the betting by CrazyMarco as inconsistent with playing for a high hand and inconsistent with a set. When the river came not a heart, there was a significant chance that CrazyMarco only had a busted flush. The call seems reasonable in that situation.

To be surer, it would make sense to find out CrazyMarco's betting patterns as observed by Potripper. Had CrazyMarco been consistently going all-in in such situations where a busted flush seemed likely, then the call is even more reasonable.

Thus, although there may be evidence that a player could see others' hole cards, I have not seen any actual posts that adduce such evidence.

Hand 80, he's in the HJ w/KQo and everyone folds to him and he folds...??? He's opened w/72o and absolute JUNK, but this time he folds w/a decent hand. The SB had AA.......... Super user???

There is no way he folds KQo when his range for opening is HUGH and he's in relatively late position....

Yet in the example you are citing, it is not a busted flush. DUCY?
