    In the real world, you sit down at the table with 7 other “normal” players, and one player who has access to Infinite Credit. He can keep doubling down on his losses until one of his bets wins, and then he bankrupts the rest of the players who do not have access to infinite credit.

    Like the Poker Table, the Capitalist sytem provides a Window Dressing which makes 7 or the players BELIEVE they are in a fair competition based on merit, but they really are not, there is always one fo the Illuminati sitting at the table who can CRUSH all the rest of them at any time. He can Bluff you out with a bet so big you will fold your Aces. Long as the Game is proceeding along to his benefit, he doesn’t do that, but when push comes to shove he does.

    RE

    Two poker nitpicks here. You cannot have “infinite credit” at the poker table because there is a limit to how much you can buy in for in a real game. There is not way to “double down” because the maximum bet will remain the max buy-in size. Of course this is real casino poker games, not the movies where you can like pull your house deed or more money out of your pocket if you have the nuts.

    Secondly, “He can Bluff you out with a bet so big you will fold your Aces.” makes no sense either in the context of a maximum buy-in size. In strict cash-game holdem poker it is never correct to fold AA preflop, although in a tournament is correct sometimes. However in that case it is not because you are “afraid of a bluff”.

    I get your points I just had to throw that out there since I play a decent amount.
