A lot (though by no means all) of luck factor is removed in duplicate bridge because all 52 cards are used. There's no way of getting round luck in poker - all this does is remove the luck in what cards you get pre-flop. For example, a player may get it all in with aces pre-flop and lose more to a suck out than his competitor who doesn't.

How about running cards multiple times when people are all in? How much does that reduce the luck element?

This had slightly more luck (which was neccessary to avoid collusion) and they didn't get very far with anything.

Skill Poker, for those who have short memories.

If anyone could be bothered to search all of cmwings' posts they'd learn a lot more about it.
