Can the Element of “LUCK” Be Taken Out of Poker?

If you've ever played poker – it's happened to you. You play your cards right, trap your opponent, get your money in with the better hand....and lose.

“Lady Luck” slaps you upside the head and snatches victory from your hands at the same time.

A new poker format has emerged recently that looks to take the “luck” factor out of the game of poker in an effort to make skill the determining factor.

The new poker format is called “DuplicatePoker” and it works by having your opponents sit at other tables and play the exact same hands that you do! Because of this “luck” is no longer a factor and the player who plays the best poker is the winner.

The mission of the guys over at Duplicate Poker is to have DuplicatePoker recognized as an official sport by the “Recognized Sport Organization”. The game is already recognized as a “game of skill” and not “gambling”. This recognition means that the game is legal in the US and makes Duplicate Poker the only poker room to accept credit cards.

Players can easily deposit funds with their credit cards as DuplicatePoker is a site trusted by US banks. So poker players do not have to worry about any legal issues when participating in DuplicatePoker. All of this has helped Duplicate Poker become the fastest growing poker room online.

DuplicatePoker also offers some great deals for new players who want to give DuplicatePoker a try. They offer a 200% Deposit Bonus up to $100, so if you deposit $100, you get $300 to play with. That's $200 of FREE money.

DuplicatePoker also offers new players a free $3 credit just for signing up, with no deposit necessary. This means you can sign up and give DuplicatePoker a free try before depositing to see if you like the new “duplicate” format.

How do you “fold” on a deal like that?

Shoot on over to DuplicatePoker now and see what you think.
