I been told that some sites (888 to name the one i was told about ) are doing web cam poker I have not tried it yet myself or seen it. So if anyone here has whats the virdict does it eat the resources and slow the comp down is multi table possible. I don't have a cam on this comp so I can't try it right now but as soon as i get to a cam comp and the right site i will for sure.
But to me that beats PKR with all the fancy graphics and gismo sounds and slow play etc. Should catch on I feel being able to see the whites of the eye so to speak might be fun calling someone a tosser in real time with sound to no doubt lol

never tried it but it'll surely eatup the ram and other resources, so avoid it on old computers. might be good for a change but dont think you can multitable efficiently with it.

I like the anonymity of online poker play. Online if you think your 2-4s is going to hit you can call and the worst you get called is DONK or NOOB, but in live play people have to be tossed out sometimes when they go wild over donk calls. Webcams, I would just find a cardboard cutout of some superhero and there you go, you are now playing against Superman.

I don't know of any others. But I would like to throw in my two cents here.
I like the idea it sounds like it could be good for a laugh, and while it could work well in theory I agree it probably will end up being annoying. With people turning their cams or blocking them when big hands come up or what not.

First time hearing about this. But i find it pointless and useless. if you wanna have that kind of interaction better visit a local club or a casino and enjoy it at its best. The better come up with ideas to keep the sites online than that lol
