Default Re: How much would GOD make playing poker?

this is probably a poker theory question.

but i'm going to guess something like 35bb/100. just a rough guess.

By the way, this was certainly not a thread that was supposed to have ANYTHING to do with theology...I just thought it was a catchy subject line...

I think someone else asked the same question in Poker Theory a few days back. Supposing that I can see everyone's hole cards, I would raise a lot while folding a lot at the same time. It's pretty easy to figure out why. The only inconsistency would be whether betting a worse hand is correct or not, depending on the opponent(s).

By the way, God would not gamble. But if it ends up that He wants to humor you with some Hold'em headsup, God would let you win every hand.

If God were playing, he/she would control all the cards in the deck, not just know what the opponents held, so a typical hand would go something like this:
Player1: AA
Player2: KK
Player3: QQ
Player4: JJ
Player5: JJ
Player6: TT
Player7: AKs
God: 53o

Flop: AKQ
Turn: 2
River: 4

From this, we can deduce that God plays low-stakes at Party. And does quite well.

would everyone stop referring to god as "her"

not because i favor a male gender for the good lord i don't believe in, but simply because it's like typing him/her or he/she as opposed to just "he."

yeah, it blows that the english language is male-dominated and patriarchal reinforcing, [censored], traditional narrative structure is inherently sexist...

but that doesn't mean that even though i don't have a point we need to start female-genderizing "god."

and chris, clearly god makes 37~38bb/100. you forget that when god wants to steal the blind, she STEALS the frickin' blinds.
