Re: Odd hold\'em structure
Explain to me how's it's different, Larry.
If you get involved on one street, it costs you 4 bets. Period. There's no limping and hoping it doesn't get raised this time, because it does get raised.
It's capped 6-ways preflop, and gets down to capped 3- or 4-ways at showdown.
I honestly don't see how this is different than the game I described in the original post. Please explain to me why I'm wrong.
As to why I posted it the way I did...I wanted to emphasize the essential features of the game, and pare away any of the extraneous distractions. At worst, the game in the OP was a slight abstraction and simplification of the game I saw, but it seems like a reasonable starting point to start thinking about the game.
