From the earlier poker books through to today's wealth of knowledge, basic odds and chances.
I understand that computers can calculate amazing statistics, scenarios and equations very quickly, however...
Has there ever to have been, real physical experimentation.

Live hands that are recorded?

Mad scientists spending years of their lives dealing out cards and hypothesing various scenarios or do they themselves use computer simulation.

Has anyone spent years of their lives flipping coins and recording the results.

I know that there are already so many online hands collected and analysed now, is there a similar compilation of live hands?

I thought I would ask here before I Google.
