Poker by Mail

[Gelford]

In theory you are right, but since you only play one 20% of the hand you are dealt and a lot of those are mucked quickly, then mailpoker would become slower than paint waiting to dry ... not forgetting, that you have to wait for 8 to 10 players to make there decision (and if one raises, then we need wait another round at least before betting is over)

While mailpoker sound slow, slow and fairly boring, there is one comparison that hold up to chess, you can analyse your plays after the game is over
