poker nonsense again

at least in chess they cant bluff you off the pot!!! well not that much.....

very interesting comment, i`ll bear that in mind. all knowledge is power.the statement i made was coming from my pockets, after a few tables  ha ha

What style of poker was this lostapiece?  I'd be interested to know as I play texas hold'em on the weekends.

I, for one, enjoy poker, even though the only game I know is Texas Hold 'Em.  I think that chess and poker are a lot alike, once you look at them closely.  I'll use Texas Hold 'Em for the comparison.  In poker, you have 13 different cards in each of 4 different suits that can be dealt.  You are dealt two cards, and you have to predict whether your opponents can beat you based on what your cards are, and you have to bluff to make your opponents think that you have better cards than they do.  In chess, you have 6 different pieces that can move in different directions in different styles.  You have to figure out what move would be best to make to get your opponent in a position they don't like.  If you are playing them OTB, you have to make sure that nothing upsets you; you have to keep a poker face.  You need to have the ability to "read" your opponent(s) in both games.  They aren't alike for how you play them, but you need almost the same set of skills for both games.
