Well, my eyes have been opened. I still find it hard to understand why there haven't been rules in place to avoid 'help from the rail during a tournament'. But, I guess if it is allowed who are we to discredit the win? Just as fundiver mentioned, 'They are basically looking for any kind of edge, they can find of the recreational players, and its up to the tournament organizers to draw a line.' Tournament organizers should be looking to change the rules to reflect at minimum, fairness to all whether amateur or pro.
But there was actually an announcement made at the beginning of each tournament at the wsop series this year (after some players had been spotted on tables looking at laptops, & some were actually disqualified!).
This was the announcement made at the start of each WSOP event:
"We do ask you to please do not use any type of poker solvers at any point in time at the table or in the tournament area. If you're found using one of these poker solvers, there's a possibility of being disqualified from the tournament."
Daniel Negreanu's comment:
"No one at the table said anything as far as I know (to staff re: solver use in Main Event), but had they asked the floor for a ruling, I don't see how they would have been allowed to continue."
