Re: Which Poker game has the least amount of luck?
I disagree with most people here over the definition of luck in game.
Most people in this thread are defining it as "the game where you are least likely to lose to terrible players". Sure, maybe 7-card Stud makes you unlikely to lose because most people are terrible at it... but that's not a feature of the game itself.
It just so happens that 7 card Stud games are populated by terrible players. But suppose Stud had been the game that got popular on TV and NLHE was some obscure game few people played, then it would be the exact opposite.
As for which game is affected by luck the least, going only by the rules of the game itself... I am confident that it's Limit Omaha H/L.
As for the most luck-based, any game where single cards can decide huge pots will be at the top. PLO is the clear #1, probably followed by NLHE.
