OK. I'm not sure you've understood my post.

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

No difference! Its the same game, that hasnt changed! If someone plays poor but gets lucky, theyll stay in and be doing well! No different.

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."

Most likely the two that come bottom of the group played one or two hands very poorly for a lot of chips, e.g. called the nut flush on the river when the other 8 folded. It wont come down to marginal differences in most cases.

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.

No I'm not. I actually said this in my post.

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.

Absolutaly not. It makes the game more competitive, thats the motivation.

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