To sum up, let's get the amateurs out of Texas Hold 'Em by using a new deck of cards."<BR/><BR/>This is brilliantly hilarious! :)<BR/><BR/>It touches upon a very interesting topic, though, which is: the skills professional poker players need to play against each other actually leave them a little vulnerable to amateur players with no clue what their doing. You need different skills to take down a poker-literate player than you do to take down a poker-ignoramus.<BR/><BR/>In practice, this vulnerability is marginal - the pros regular clean out the amateurs in the side games if for no other reason than amateurs don't know how to play any way but loose - but it does mean the poker professionals I know won't play the game with their friends because it would mean playing in a wholly different style, one utterly incompatible with how they would normally play.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07550565723765898399noreply@blogger.com
