It occured to me, reading your post, how entertaining it would be to be a "fly on the astral wall" in a room full of psychics playing poker.
For instance, you said that you would pick up on how confident I was in my hand. However, what if I could project my confidence in my ability to bamfoozle you??
Just like poker with "normal" folks, at that point it's got almost nothing to do with the cards in your hand, but rather how you "feel" about the cards in your hand - or more specifically, how you feel about your ability to make others feel something about the cards in your hand. Gives the term "poker face" a whole new dimension.
