The best poker players around the world are often described to have an almost incomprehensible six sense that allows them decipher their opponent’s hidden cards and make mind blowing bluffs or calls. Hand reading may seem like an esoteric talent that is beyond the reach of mortals. However, it is a science based on deductive logic. Poker players analyze their opponents’ actions based on previous experience, and then form assumptions to help them pinpoint their opponent’s holdings.
A good poker player will watch for physical cues, such as an opponent’s stiff neck, bad back or uncomfortable shoes. These tells can help a player determine whether or not an opponent has a strong hand. A poker card reader can go one step further and give a more accurate reading of the cards hidden in the player’s hands. This is possible due to the RFID chips that are embedded in the playing cards. These chips can transmit data which can be read from far distances.
The data is then sent to a computer, which can use it to predict a hand’s winner. This technology is not only intrusive, but also accurate and reliable. The accuracy of this system is also bolstered with a number of features, including the ability of the camera to be adjusted in sensitivity, the ability to connect various accessories and the ability of the device to report who won.
The main screen of the poker card reader shows various bits of information, including the game type (in this case, 1016), the current result and a list of available settings. There are also buttons to select the number players and to turn on or off the haptic feedback.
Another important setting on this screen is the ‘game hall menu,’ which allows the user to select which games the device will analyze. As you can see, the screen has a lot of options and there is a lot of room to add more in the future.
The maximum reading distance of the poker card reader is 8-10 cm. This is less than the minimum reading distance required for RFID chips, but it is still too far to reliably read a deck of cards stacked on top of each other.
The reader on this table uses encryption of banking-grade to protect the transmission and storage of card information. This is a good security measure, but not foolproof. If a skilled hacker intercepted this transmission, he or she could figure out the exact position of the cards. This is why you should be very careful when handling poker cheating devices.
