Duplicate Poker

The game Duplicate Poker is a new twist on Texas Hold-em that has players captivated. In an interesting angle Duplicate Poker involves playing two duplicate hands at two duplicate tables. The quote below pretty much sums it up.

In Duplicate Poker the cards are set-up so that each table and each seat at each table gets exactly the same cards: Duplicate hole cards, duplicate flop, turn and river.

How to play duplicate Poker

these are the rules of Duplicate Poker from the official Duplicate Poker website. They seem quite simple and straight forward...

1. First, there are always two or more tables of players, with the same number of players seated at each table.

2. Second, an identically shuffled deck of cards is used at each table for each hand played so that players in the same seat position at each table receive the same hole cards and the common cards are the same at each table.

3. Third, every player begins each hand with the same number of playing chips, regardless of how he/she may have done in any previous hand.

4. Fourth, the winner of each hand is determined based on the number of chips he or she has at the end of the game as compared with those held by all players in the same seat at the other tables.

Determining winners by comparing the results achieved by the players playing identical hands eliminates the luck of the draw element normally associated with poker so that skill is what determines who wins, not whether you got good cards or bad cards. Every hand can win if it is well played.
