Default Re: How much information about poker strategy is really available?

If there were some poker secret wouldn't we see a dominant poker champion? Wouldn't the same people win the money year after year after year instead of having huge fluctuations?

Not sure what sort of secret you're looking for (sounds like magic almost), but given the strong luck factor in poker and more prevalent in tournaments than in ring games I think consistent tournament winning would be very unlikely. The best you can do is look at tournaments over the longest term possible, hope it's statistically significant, and assign player skill levels based on those results.
