Consider, if you played pokery really terribly and never won a hand, tourney or whatever wouldn't you quit a lot sooner and dump less money into the poker economy? Why do you think Stud Hi/Lo no qualifier (or even worse with a declare) died off? Why can't you find a good online 5 card draw game above 2/4? Why is there lots of very serious concern for the long-term life of cash NLHE?
