  • Quantification of Luck and Skill in Texas Hold'em Frederic Paik
    Quantification of Luck and Skill in Texas Hold’em Frederic Paik Schoenberg 1. Introduction. Las Vegas, Nevada, July 11, 2015. It is day 4 of the 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event. The tournament began with 6,420 players paying $10,000 apiece to enter the tournament. Now only about 400 remain. Some are legendary poker professionals, while others are amateurs taking a shot at poker glory. The tension and drama increase each hand, as millions of dollars and the title of World Champion hang in the balance with each card dealt and each poker decision made. Winning the tournament will clearly require not only great skill but also a huge amount of luck as well. The determination of whether poker is primarily a game of luck or skill has been the subject of intense legal debate. For instance, in 2007 an English court ruled that poker is primarily a game of luck in finding the owner of the Gutshot Club in central London guilty of violating the Gaming Act, which requires a license to host games of chance but not games of skill (Cacciotollo 2007). On the other hand, in 2009 the organizer of a poker club in Colorado was found not guilty of illegal gambling on games of chance in a trial where the jury agreed with a statistician's testimony contending that poker is a game of skill (Hannum and Cabot 2009). As laws differ around the world regarding the legality of gambling on games of skill or games of luck, a clear definition of whether poker is a game primarily of skill or luck might have broad legal implications.

  • The Mathematics of Poker: Basic Equity Calculations
    - MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTER EDUCATION- THE MATHEMATICS OF POKER: BASIC EQUITY CALCULATIONS AND ESTIMATES Mark Farag Gildart Haase School of Computer Sciences and Engineering Fairleigh Dickinson University 1000 River Road, Mail Stop T-BE2-01 Teaneck, New Jersey 07666 [email protected] INTRODUCTION The game of poker has experienced a worldwide boom in popularity in the past decade. This can be attributed to a confiuence of events: the invention of the "lipstick" camera that allows viewing of players' "hole" (hidden) cards for television broadcasts, the growth of online poker rooms, and the increased popularity of "satellite" events that allow players to win their way into larger-money events. The largest single prize awarded in a poker tournament to date, 12 million US dollars, was won by an amateur player in 2006 [2]. Poker is a game of skill that contains an element of chance; it lies somewhere between chess (pure skill) and roulette (pure luck) in the spectrum of games. Since poker is a game of incomplete information, skilled players often use psychology to help them make correct decisions or to infiuence others to make incorrect decisions. Some situations do arise, however, in which mathematical considerations are paramount. It is the purpose of this article to discuss such situations. Since the first section covers the rules of poker in detail, the subsequent discussion should be of interest and accessible to students with only a basic knowledge of combinatorics and probability. THE RULES Modem poker is played with a standard deck of 52 cards, using cards marked with numbers 2 through 10, J (Jack), Q (Queen), K (King), and A (Ace) to indicate, in increasing order, their respective ranks.

  • THREE CARD POKER Before the First Card Is Dealt, Each Player Must Place an Ante Wager And/ Or a Pair Plus Wager
    THREE CARD POKER Before the first card is dealt, each player must place an ante wager and/ or a pair plus wager. The ante wager is a wager against the dealer. The pair plus wager is a wager against a posted scale of payouts. All ante and pair plus wagers must be placed prior to the dealer announcing “no more bets.” Each player and the dealer receive three cards face down. Players then look at their cards and decide whether to fold (forfeit their ante wager), or continue playing by placing a play wager which must be equal in amount to the ante wager. The dealer must qualify with a queen high or better. If the dealer does not have at least a queen high, the ante wager wins 1 to 1 and the play wager is returned. If the dealer qualifies with queen high or better, and if the player’s hand beats the dealer’s hand, the play wager wins 1 to 1 and the ante wager pays 1 to 1. In the event of a tie the hand is declared a push and all wagers are returned. ANTE BONUS Straight • 1 to 1 Three of a Kind • 4 to 1 Straight Flush • 5 to 1 PAIR PLUS PAYOUTS The Pair Plus Wager allows you to wager on the ranked value of your hand as it is dealt. The wager is not in competition with the dealer’s hand. The payouts for the Pair Plus Wager are as follows: Pair • 1 to 1 Flush • 3 to 1 Straight • 6 to 1 Three of a Kind • 30 to 1 Straight Flush • 40 to 1 An incorrect number of cards dealt to either the player or the dealer constitues a misdeal.
