Default Re: texas shootout: A beatable game??

[ QUOTE ]
If this is spread in a casino, played against the house, I highly doubt it is beatable. There are usually very strong rules in place governing those games, which mandate a house edge in a certain range, and compliance must be proved. I assure you, the casino has done the math; in fact, I would guess it was done independantly by at least two parties, then was vetted by whatever gaming commision governs the casino. So, basically, your chances of the game being beatable are the chances that a major math error got through all those entities. Not likely I would say.

the house pushes a massive edge in bonus bets, which almost all players play every hand (and a 5$ bonus bet gets you an "envy" bet, which gives u more ways to win, but is clearly a bad bet). i woould be willing to bet that this game is beatable given that you have free information.
