It is very interesting indeed, certainly if you see what good it can do. However i've never seen a movie showing it off for what it really is. In the movies they make it a bit to much fun heh. It's not magic, and the client is the one in control (that's where 90% of the movies go wrong). Although with the help of hypnotherapy you can still achieve wonderous things.
And yes it can be handy for live poker since most players have some tells without themselves actually knowing it. A few rounds of observation can be very proffitable. The trick is to just remember to do this with everyone who sits down, even if you know them already. You must find out that specific persons tells at that specific time. And with tells i mean little things like getting a little red at the ears when they just bluffed for example. Off course if you can spot bigger ones that's nice too but most players will be aware of their own big tells and actually try to fool you with them. Everyone can do that, but this studie (NLP in particulair) helps a lot with it. Very few pro's have a true poker face, you can even practice on the TV shows.
Unfortunatly i (nor anyone else) can't hypnotize them into giving me all their money heh, although you could possibly help them a bit if you'd be really mean i guess. You might be able to influence some people's playing styles, make them more tight or loose, but it's good to remember that if that would work they still do that themselves.
