I was reading Poker Player magazine and saw an ad for this. Heres their website: Pokerhpc.com
The Cube! Look at your hole cards without picking them up off the table! It's a dual card protector and hole card viewer. It also brags about "No physical discomfort or straining your neck while looking at your cards!"

Now I have to ask, are you ****ing kidding me? Who would buy this thing? Are there really people that are that lazy that it's easier for them to slide their cards in to a bulky box to read them instead of just lifting the corners of them up off the felt?

How would a poker room even allow this thing on the table? How would a dealer and the other players know that you're still in the hand if your cards are concealed in some stupid ****ing box in front of you on the table! I've seen some really dumb inventions before but I think this one might take the cake. Who financially backs these things, surely they are gonna take a bath on this one. Thoughts?

It like the greatest ting to be invented 4 poker ever!

HAHAHAHHA wtf that is the stupidest invention ive ever seeon. it looks like some guy nailed a bunch of pieces of wood together and its going to fall apart

how can i pick up cards that are on my computer screen?

But what if you dressed up as a wizard and waved your hands around the cube while you played?

lol the best part may have been "designed for poker players of every level, from beginner to tournaments players." I guess cash game players = fish

That is one creepy video. Looks like it was made by the Dharma initiative.

I can't wait until I see some toolbox using one of these. Might be a long wait tho. It's a pretty awful incarnation of "solving a problem that doesn't exist"

Horrible, absolutely horrible. This is the worst invention ever.

creator's parents are obviously brother and sister

how is the person who made this not embarassed.

It's not a horrible idea for older people who have arthritis or other similar ailments that makes it harder for them to lift cards off table without showing their neighbors.

even after the video im still not sure how this thing actually works. You have to insert your hole cards? lol

and lol at the guy in the video. he sound like a psychotic.

+1. How can they have a freakin' video with no product demonstration?

FAIL.

Not only does it show you your hole cards, but if you give it to someone as a gift, it'll also show you what complete and utter disappointment looks like.

the only guy that should use this is the dude with no arms that palys every main event. other thatn that youre a loser and i have a a suitcase of collectible card protectors for $50 a piece in this cant miss one time deal

omg the accent this tard puts on is Fhilarious

second stupidest cube ever

does it come with the pic of a young girl?

Well, due to the completely random and extraneous picture of a young girl on it, I'd imagine Amarillo Slim will be interested.

It doesn't even look like a cube.

I think you also can use it to read really small porn magazines without anyone noticing..

Other than this being one of the dumbest inventions ive seen, why place a 10 year old girl on the box..

level ??
