In live televised tournaments, they should prohibit any electronic device at the table such as telephone headphones, and even when the hand is live and they are being transmitted they could have a vibrating receiver, in some device attached to the body, to know if they can play or not or bet or fold

well, this is purely for an amateur, watching broadcasts on TV, I often see how top players sit with gadgets and still manage to play there, as for me it's more for PR, if you are serious about the game, then nothing should distract you. I can say for myself that playing 2 tournaments on one monitor already feels a little uncomfortable

I think that video tables are often broadcast with a delay, so I personally do not see the need to ban gadgets about the time of tournaments, as for me, the main role in a live tournament is played by psychology and observation of opponents
