Default Don\'t you like the \"lucky\" games?

Suppose a made up game of holdem.

The rules are the same as traditional holdem, with a few exceptions. It has three blinds, a 2/3 button blind, a 2/3 small blind, and a full big blind. It is also a kill game. Added to these differences is the fact that it has two wild cards (not completely wild, mind you, but in the same vain as 5 card draw).

Would a game like this be considered a skillful one? It would certainly have a very large variance due to the increased blinds, and it being a kill game. The wild cards, I'm not so sure, since they can be used skillfully (and for the fact that they are not completely wild).

Whose with me on this? I happen to like games that appear to be a luck driven game, however, if you delve deeper you can find a skillful route? Don't you guys have more fun in these games? I would certainly have more fun in the above imaginary game, than I do when I've just posted a 9% voluntary preflop play percentage in my holdem game. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
