I first got really interested in playing cards, via MSN Zone Hearts, back in the day; before in went all auto-match.

I became decent at the game, however when I reached the stage where I was considering playing cards for a living I realised it was impossible for hearts to work as a money game.

For fun, I have recently started playing the game again and can't remember why it could never really work for cash. So my question is why doesn't it?

This is a poker forum so I am not sure it is the correct place to get this info

I have no idea if it would work for cash or not, the main questions to ask is luck/skill factor in hearts and your skill level vs other cash players in this game.

One thing to take into account about hearts is that collusion in this game is lethal to the other players, while in poker collusion provides some help to the players but not in such a way that it makes everyone else a sure loser in hearts two players cooperating will totaly kill your game

TLR has a point about this not being the forum for it.

However, it is FTR's BEST forum for this question. Which may raise another question...should FTR have a subforum for "Other Games"? Many poker players enjoy other games such as chess, backgammon, bridge, etc.

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

There used to be a forum called house of cards or something similar which was meant for it, I think it got like 1 post a year or so

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Rounders?

What's Rounders?

Some enjoy those games, some enjoy luckboxing them to others dismay
