Does it matter in UTH if the players can see each others cards? I haven't seen any studies on what, if any, advantage could be generated if people were to be able to see all the cards out with 7 people at a table sharing information. I assume someone has done a study, but I haven't come across it.

Check for "collusion UTH" as keywords on apheat..net. I think teliot has had something to say about this. Seems like there is an advantage with a full table, but not enough to overcome the HE, especially since they deal a fresh deck. I could be wrong.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

A full (six-player) table gets a computer-perfect edge of about 2.5%.

Thanks for posting the link (and doing the work)!

In real life, however, players who peek at other players' cards tend to make poor choices, often chickening out of good 4x bets because they see one out gone.

Stephen How wrote said full table collusion wasn't even enough to overcome the house edge. So someone unfortunately goofed. Or longer sims are needed to get a clearer answer. :(

There is no discrepancy between Stephen's results and my results. My results are for computer-perfect play. Stephen's are for a particular sub-optimal human-feasible strategy that he discusses in his post.
