Have any of you played duplicate poker before? I remember trying it a few years ago but preferred regular poker so I never tried it again. Is it legit? I saw a new site that claims its legal because of some "skill" element. I prefer regular poker but what's a US player to do :(
Lacey Jones is sponsoring this site (skillbet) and the site looks pretty professional, thoughts?
I played it, and it was terrible.Quote:

So if you have AA and the guy against you decides to fold his JJ preflop, you don't win much. If a guy at another table with the same AA gets a monkey to stack off big with JJ, you will likely lose the round through no fault of your own.
The whole thing is a clusterfuck, and sounds way better in theory than it is in practice.
i like it, wish it was back
everyone plays different, someone should come up with a new site like this, awesome
yes it is skill
Did you read what I wrote about it above?Quote:

I'm telling you, Duplicate Poker was both boring and ill-conceived.
