Can only imagine how blatant the collusion would be.

So how does everybody seeing the flop decrease luck? I'm not VPIPing with a hand like 84o pretty much ever...but if I see the flop for free (yes, I know, ante) and it is 444, I'm a 989-1 favorite against anything you can dream up.

That's the epitome of luck.

No, you can now skillfully milk the other donkeys at the table with 22+ because they have a fullhouse!

Why are we giving the losing hand more equity? "Because that how the game was created.." Yes, it was created by man, it can be change by man.

You made a mistake, a bad call, you lose. Simple as that. There is still a small window of chance of course, but most of the gambling elements are gone.
Weak players should and will lose, and good, disciplined, assertive players will win, short and long term.

I fully understand that this will no be well received by the major "Poker Corporations.." to call it somehow, as they profit from gambling (and i understand that) but at least i'm planting the seed.

Why giving the losing hand more equity to catch? It is ridiculous. If you made a mistake, you lose, except you get really lucky (Now bad beats are more polarized because of this)

Take for example 72o vs AK, almost a flip in current holdem rules, with the New holdem AK is something like a 4 to 1 favorite.

In this case there will be no long term.
Just figure out how to win at poker and then we don't need these ridiculous new forms of poker which are not sustainable but fit the narrative of the general tight fish

.

If you want more skill, you need to add a skill element to the game. Or subtract a luck element.

One skill element you could add would be team play. As in spades or bridge.

Seek ideas on execution elsewhere. I'm a 'big picture' kind of a guy.

pretty good big picture you got there... either a massive troll or actually no understanding of poker whatsoever.

There was a Team Poker format tried for live tournaments.......

The first live event at Caesars was a great event, quite an opening, team jerseys, photos, celebrity players, etc.

The folks behind the concept included the Mayor of Beverly Hills and his son. Very nice, earnest folks, but the concept apparently did not thrive beyond the second event:

And he wrote "The game is 3 handed, no action preflop. Big ante. Holdem, but using both hole cards an an all in player plays current street"

That right there is the future

I had an idea one day, i said i shall eliminate all variance from the game, and GOD said, feel free to do it. Then i fall asleep.

The way i wanted to go about it was, whenever players are all in, they get their percentage of chanse as percentage of pot back. auto cash out without the fee.

I dreamt of being at a final table, heads up, my opponent said, this is not a game kid, this is a spiritual journey, i will show you what absolute infinity is.I was confused, then he proceed and said.

"Do whatever you want, i will always shove ATC, i will never fold, we will never see a flop , but you will never escape this dream, this is reality, this is absolute infinity, pure consciousness.

After some years of dreaming, i remember wining 47 consecutive all ins at one point, and his stack was 0.00000000000043 chips. But he would never lose.

Then i became pure consciousness, pure ifnitiy , i realised what GOD is. The simple undeniable truth, everything is one, you are me and i am you and we are all GOD. Yes.
