NEWSFLASH!!
DuplicatePoker... the Only US-Legal Online Poker Site!!
Welcome to DuplicatePoker!
DuplicatePoker.com is a skill-based games website, not a gambling site. Skill-based games can be played legally in most U.S. states.
It's a new twist on classic poker play. The object of the game is to beat your opponents at other tables with your same playing hand.
This reduces the luck in the game and increases the skill in play.
Duplicate Poker Duplicate Poker involves play of Pot Limit and No Limit Texas Hold'em under the general rules governing that game with four exceptions.
First, there are always two or more tables of players, with the same number of players seated at each table.
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.
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.
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.
Our games eliminate the "luck of the draw" element from poker. As a result the elements of skill predominate in determining winners in our Duplicate Poker games. We have taken the principles of duplicate bridge and applied them to popular poker games, like Texas Hold'Em By eliminating this luck element we have greatly increased the skill elements. This makes playing our poker games more fair and more mentally challenging.
Games that are predominately skill-based are legal in most U.S. jurisdictions. There are a few states within the U.S. that have not yet permitted skill-based games to be played for cash or prizes. For those states, Duplicate Poker only allows its games to be played on a play-money basis and you cannot win cash or prizes except in freerolls that we may offer from time to time.
