Duplicate poker
The poker at this site is played with a separate table which mirrors all the hands at your table. You are not really playing against the hands at your table, but against the mirror hand at the opposite table. This is supposed to take the luck of the draw out of the game and make this a game of skill as opposed to regular poker which the governmental authorities consider a game of luck (yeah, I know). For this reason, this game is legal in the US and they accept credit cards.
The irony is that this game is probably more of a game of luck than regular poker. The players on your mirror table will often play recklessly, and you find that if you win on your table by conservative play, that you will have lost to the luck of the draw to your mirror player. In fact, you often have to pay to lose in order to win. Or resort to reckless play yourself.
