Default Re: Is Triple Draw really worth it?

[ QUOTE ]
The general problem is that any poker game where decision outcomes, regardless of how they are derived, are the same for both expert and fish is going to be one with a lower win rate. And it seems to me that there are a *lot* of scenarios where this is the case in Triple Draw.

Yes but there are plenty of situations where this is not the case.

I'm just ending a trip to Vegas and played quite a bit in mixed games. A lot of these folks are awful, calling raises and drawing 3 (and not even w/ a 23) calling a BB and drawing 2 in smallish pots. Also tells that are much more obvious and reliable, not to mention that position is huge. You just know if the guy made or missed his draw.

I dunno, maybe I was just blessed with a good games. But if they stay that way I won't complain.

I'm sure a lot of people are bad but not all the examples you gave are necessarily representative of that. Low to mid limit games are extremely straightforward so that's why you think its so easy in position, they never bluff!
