Chinese RPS : Bakku Is Such A Luckbox
For the uninitiated, Chinese RPS is a variation of the age-old game Rock Paper Scissors. It involves rounds where each player involved (max 4handed) makes a "throw" of some predetermined number of individual [R,P,S] throws. Each of the players' individual throws are then pitted against the respective individual throws of their opponents and points are awarded accordingly. You settle with each player individual, much like Chinese Poker. E.g., in a 3handed game where PlayerA throws RSP, PlayerB throws PPP, and PlayerC throws SPP, A would break even with B and win 2 points from C, and C would win 1 point from B. Typical bonus system is 3x points for a sweep of any given player, an extra 3x bonus for a sweep of all players (if more than HU), a +3 points penalty for getting swept by all players, and a doubling of the points for the next round if any given round results in a complete wash (e.g. RRR vs PPP vs SSS vs RPS). Typical structure is throws of 3 for multiway and throws of 5 or 7 for HU.
So anyway, OMFG. Bakku is so ridiculous. This kid is up ~$1.6k on this game lifetime. We just got done with a HU sesh where he lucked his way into $372 of my hard-earned monies, despite the fact that I most definitely won the majority of decisions. So it is pretty obv to all who have witnessed his luckbox ways that it is only a matter of time before my edge prevails and he either goes bust and is dunzo or cries uncle like a nit and pulls a multi-sesh hit and run. The question is, just how long exactly can his lucky run go on for? I am talking hard numbers here; I would appreciate it if BruzeZ or Homer chimed in or maybe Skuhlansky. I will graph my last month's play as soon as RPSGrapher goes Beta. GoT |

The key to RPS is bluffing. You have to feint certain throws and gambits and then pull the perfect counter to his strategy. Of course, double- and triple-bluffing comes into play, so you have to know how smart your opponent is.

I heard Bakku cheats at various drunken holdem games and that Deathdonkey helps. I suggest that GoT look into the possibliy of RPS packet sniffing and other forms of hacking.
