he would have to have installed a remote access tool on the computer doing the live overlay, and have a buddy relaying the info. has he ever been in the booth? could quickly plug in a usb stick. does he have a compute background?
rfid transmits a max of 18 inches, maybe somethings possible there too, unlikely
hes not making any tragic mistakes, like folding full house vs full house, calling with ten high.
It's very easy to fast forward through hands Mike isn't involved in + I'm learning a lot about the game. It's fun to watch this guy crush the game. Some of the most fun poker I've watched in awhile. This guy is very far from a whale, very much the opposite.
He doesn't seem to make mistakes like folding in spots where it would be to obvious, because then it would be to obvious.

But just a general thing to keep in mind, if something seems totally bizarre, there is a good chance it's just the card reader. It would be nice if someone who knows the technical setup at Stones could chime in. AFAIK they basically set it all up themselves, which both explains the weird lines but also increases the possibility of cheating. Any real further discussion at this point should be on the technicals and not just fishing for weirdly played hands which prove basically nothing.
No one is looking to prove anything by pointing out a large sample size of weirdly played hands, it's one piece of the story that will lead to the bigger story at some point in time.
I don't think it's right to call him a cheater because of the HHs posted by myself and others so far, there isn't any proof of that only going off hand histories. There might be something going on but it's impossible to know without more information.
