    I'm sure these games would be fun to learn, just don't know how i'd do in the longrun.. Know some of the baics (starting hans, etc.) but curious to how much "math" plays in these..

    Reminds me of a line I heard Alex Outhred spout about understanding pot odds: It's about as important as being a Christian and believing in Jesus.
