As I read this article from High Stakes News, one Shawn Riley has designed a new variant of poker really strange: the Kandu. It’s basically a game of Hold’em in which, before playing the hand, the dealer, during a time of 2 or 3 seconds, stretches across the deck-and-mixed on the table, so that Players are supposed to do and can memorize the order of the letters.

Then cut the deck and the dealer lower teaches the letter – so if you’re God, you should be able to deduct the entire order, guessing the hands of opponents and the community cards to get out.

In addition, a player can decide if you want to pay before each hand before the game – the thing gets even more bizarre, since the game’s designer wants to change various terms, such that the ‘pot’ is a ‘ purse ‘for example.

Personally, and this is only my opinion, I wish so much success at this game as all other attempts to make variants of Hold’em trying to reduce the chance, that is, none. Apart from the fact that this game would not be playing for the Internet, since it is assumed that any bot and / or software assistant would not have the slightest problem in calculating the letters to perfection to get out and the hands of opponents.

However, we also need to understand the origin of this; the player in question, Shawn Riley, Kansas, has assembled a league of poker “bar” amateur ( “ World Poker Tour Amateur Bar Poker League Circuit “, for more details), and believes that no one can say anything in terms of problems legal , as when teaching the deck before play ‘to’ and then show the lowest, The game is pure skill. It might not be silly, one wonders if the Mossos d’Esquadra not have the same sensitivity that this man mnemonic.
