According to this news story over at Yahoo!, a researcher has found a group of people who have the amazing ability to catch people lying.
Most people believe they could easily detect such lying behavior, but in fact most miss a good 50 percent of lies, says deception expert Maureen O’Sullivan of the University of California San Francisco.
But O’Sullivan says she has found a special group — just 1 percent of those she has tested — who catch a lie nearly 90 percent of the time.
Now if they could teach those people to play poker they might just be the world’s best poker team!

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.
