Default Re: Which poker variation is most exploitable by pure math strategy?

It seems one of the points you were trying to make, which is a good one, was that in regular poker you can make more money by playing in a way that is really bad if they know what you're doing. But in chinese this isn't really true. Most of the possible exploitation in chinese comes in situations where you have two or more settings that are close against a broad range of opponent hands, but you choose the one that exploits their tendency. You would basically never set a hand in some bad way to exploit your opponents. But you might value bet superthin against an uber-calling station where you would never do that against a normal player.

Also, I think there is more room for exploitation in 2-7 chinese than in 3xhigh. I'll let others elaborate.
