Default Re: Luck-free Poker

Poker is PERFECT already. Poor play is rewarded EXACTLY often enough to keep the donaters donating and the sharks sharking.

What tournament pro needs to get into a pissing contest over who gets the most value with marginal hands? There's already a game that measures this ability; it's called "limit poker."

In your "tournament" you're assuming that that the texture of every table is exactly the same and that every player who plays poorly plays poorly in exactly the same way.

It seems like you want to be rewarded for entering pots as a favorite without getting caught up in the emotion of losing to a suckout.

Grow up. Play chess if the dark side of probability scares you.
