Also, while WSOP's TOS in Nevada says that HUDs are not permitted, the TOS for Michigan clearly implies that they are permitted. So if H2N or some other company has a workaround for hand histories, then all's good I guess.
I wouldn't be surprised if a private stable already has the capability with all their RTA bullsht.
As for the unfair advantage for Nevada players, I heard them complaining that there are no more HUDs, which implies that their older software likely saved hand histories (even if they couldn't use them during play) So they're already going to have an advantage over us when the player pools are combined with Michigan.
Also, Sharkscope has WSOP data for MI, PA, and NJ, but I don't see anything for NV.
The NV software doesn't store HH (unless that changed since I last played it)
Actually someone already got caught using a HUD there.

The full text of the NV statute is below. Could be argued either way that the language covers it, it's kind of broad.
NRS 465.075 Use or possession of device, software or hardware to obtain advantage at playing game prohibited. It is unlawful for any person to use, possess with the intent to use or assist another person in using or possessing with the intent to use any computerized, electronic, electrical or mechanical device, or any software or hardware, or any combination thereof, which is designed, constructed, altered or programmed to obtain an advantage at playing any game in a licensed gaming establishment or any game that is offered by a licensee or affiliate, including, without limitation, a device that:
1. Projects the outcome of the game;
2. Keeps track of cards played or cards prepared for play in the game;
3. Analyzes the probability of the occurrence of an event relating to the game; or
4. Analyzes the strategy for playing or betting to be used in the game,
Ê except as may be made available as part of an approved game or otherwise permitted by the Commission.
