    agreed. i can't see this catching on. i think most players would not like this idea.

    Wow so creepy. I think I'd rather the dealer had an actual robot head rather than a simulated person's head.

    The Muppet like hands are a nice touch.

    Not that it wouldn't catch on with customers. I just don't think it will work well enough. At least not for something like poker. Too much going on at the table to get rid of filthy humans. Cards flying. Changing out chips. Splitting pots. Is it April 1st already? Come on!

    Unless the robot will look like the one in "Ex Machina" and will have the AI to interact like live dealers trained to entertain, it won't be popular with gamblers.

    Just like the PokerTek electronic tables that are great in dealing more hands and excellent for tournaments, :h: many gamblers will stoopidly think that the robot is "rigged" against them and stop playing.
