Duplicate Poker Will It Work For American Poker Players

Recently there has been a way of playing poker that has some wondering if this could be a way of getting around the United States Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, this is Duplicate Poker.


Duplicate Poker is a game where the same cards are dealt to different tables whereby the poker players are the ones who decide how the game will be played out making this more about skill than chance.


If Duplicate Poker were to be considered a game of skill rather than chance could be the key to by pass the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act and this has many poker players excited. With the way this game of Duplicate Poker is dealt out with several hands at different tables being played out no two poker players with the same hand are going to play the same way which means there will be different outcomes to each table. By having different outcomes at these tables this makes this type of poker a game of skill and not chance, there is no uncertainty involved.


The way the laws are written it separates games of luck and chance from those that involve skill and that could be a good thing for online poker players.
