I think you underestimate the degree to which more poker, in gross numbers, is being played today than ever before.

I think you overestimate their chances.

So has every possible permutation of cards and player actions occurred? To what degree of accuracy do we know this to be or not to be the case?

Not even close. How could you not realize this?

Because you like to keep us guessing

Given that I don't know how many poker hands have been played and how many possible permutations of player actions there are...well, I guess that's why I don't realize that it's not even close.

Maybe we could figure out which ones haven't occured yet and make them happen. ;-)

50,000 games going at one time for 100 years. And I was counting individual hands.

Oh I see. So you just pull out a random number out your ass and multiply by 100 years. Guess a dolt like me missed that step.
