Would you rather have the ability to see/know the flop, turn, river before the first bets are made, or would you rather have the ability to see/know every single person's hand around the table?

Haha exactly.

Why would you want to know what the flop turn and river is, if you can see exactly what your opponents hold?

To make this more fair I would say maybe if you could see 1/3rd the players hands @ the table @ random and it switches every new hand, or always know flop turn river.

I don't want to have any such supernatural abilities as then there is no fun to play in my mind.

It might seem fun in the beginning to cheat others but then what about the guilt ?? I want to sleep well at night so i just want to play normally. Thanks but no thanks.

Be able to see other peoples cards... that way when I fold the 2nd nuts and am correct people are all oooo and Ahhhh- instead of how it is now I either call with the 2nd nuts and hear giggles and laughter, ot I fold the 2nd nuts and hear Fish and donkey

Well, all moral qualms aside, seeing the board would make every hand you decide to play a lock. I'd say that's a preferable skill. But it would seem fishy after a while, so I don't know how long you would be able to get away with hitting constant nuts on wierd starting hands. But seing your opponents hole cards would make for some awesome bluffs and hero calls.

Definitely rather see the hands. I mean knowing what they have would ensure u almost never lose. I mean there are times when u know without seeing what they have and they still beat u

If I had 24 hours where I could see all villains cards I wouldn't leave the room. Possibly for essential water, but thats all.

How about either knowing flop turn river or seeing 1 of the 2 cards in each opponents hand??

I think i would wanna know the flop. I mean knowing the first 3 cards would help me to determine whether i raise call fold .

even though i would want the upper hand on ppl in the game its just not right. i feel it would take away the competitive part of the game. but i think that seeing players cards would be the best advantage.

Is this a some kind of joke?! If not, B-option is surely winning option, so...:rolleyes:

think the ability to know your opponents cards would make you virtually unstoppable- the only problem is after the first game they wouldnt play with you again

I feel exactly like this these last two weeks.I have had good reads put my chips in and get sucked out on over and over again.Then sometimes this has lead to tilt and its making my downswing even worse. Right this second i NEED god mode myself lol, but cheating is disrespect of the game and the players.To hell with the money i love this game !!:D :D
