'Pokertox:' NY doc ups ante with Botox for poker players Card players who don't want to give themselves away and tip their hand can turn to a Manhattan doctor who says bet on him - and "Pokertox." Dr. Jack Berdy, an East Side doctor of aesthetic medicine, just launched the idea of using Botox to "allow people to gain a poker face"" in a service he calls Pokertox. "Very few people can maintain a real poker face,"" Berdy said. "They have some "tells," some expression that gives away that they have a good hand or a bad hand"" to an opponent. Berdy said he and his patients would go over those ""tells"" and the expressions that would give away a hand. Some players look at their cards and ""might raise their eyebrows or raise one eyebrow"" if they do or don't like what they see. "Some squint, or furrow their brows,"" Berdy said. "We can inject Botox appropriately"" so the other player doesn't get the message that they're angry, disappointed or happy. Pokertox costs an average $600 to $800 and lasts three to four months, Berdy said. Click here to read more on this story from the New York Post.
