Default Re: get rid of the blinds?

This whole explanation is pointless since the only rational way for the game to be played is everyone check/folding anything but the nuts on all streets.

The game doesn't work where there is nothing to fight over from the start, think of it from the stand point of the "opener". Why on earth would he put money into the pot without the current nuts? Why would anything less than the nuts call?

Game is no longer worth playing. Even if you factor in "fish" you will still make infinite money by just waiting for AA preflop or the post flop nuts after seeing a flop for free and going all in. No one can beat you. The only thing you have to lose is time.

EDIT: Your last paragraph is wrong. First of all there wont always be fish because the game is stupid and anyone dumb enough to put money into a pot of $0 with less than the nuts will be broke quickly since the only hands that should play with them is the nuts which should be going all in. Also, no "shark" could crush me, they'd be playing the same as me or rather not playing since this game could/would never exist in real life.
