Some card players are so good that they could even win a tourney without looking at their cards.this notion has intrigued bryan and i,so we thought we wouldput it to the test.lacking confidence,we decided to enter at the bottom level so we weren,t risking our under heavy roll.the 30p sit n go 6 seater came to our attention as a good place to start.i would blindfold bryan and proceed to tell him only the community cards,and how the betting was going.it became obvious after only a few hands that bryan was becoming quite irratable,he started to perspire heavily,suddenly bryan asked me to go get him an orange and some rope.i immedietely removed the blindfold and put a stop to the experiment at once.we both came to the conclusion that this kind of practice is best left to "proffesional "type people and took it off our investigations pendings list indefinetely.our findings were therefore inconclusive ,if anyone out there in poker land has took this experiment to conclusion we would be interested in your findings ,yours me n bryan oryan pi,poker investigator.

    Dantb10 has done it using post-its to cover his hole cards. He did a post about it a couple of weeks ago.

    id find it hard to believe any1 could WIN a tourney without seeing their cards(maybe a very slim chance of pulling it off in a HU tourney),youd need a massif slice of luck(more than when u can see them),surely if the rest of the table can see their cards,they have a huge advantage over 'blind bryan' or whoever..any1 with half a hand will call 'bryans' bet or raise,if someone raises or pushes,it would be  just a guess to call...id say even with lots of luck itd be nigh on impossible...
