Unlike all table games, you are not playing against the house in poker. You are not doomed to be -EV every hand. Therefore, could a system be formulated for the game?

Sure.

Doyle Brunson wrote the book on it: Super System. Of course, he also wrote Super System 2.

And Doyle has come to regret writing Super System. No telling how much money it cost him the first decade after it was published. "Vanity thy name is not alway woman."

Ok, Super System is not the type of 'system' I meant. I was speaking more of a video-poker-like system. A mathematically proven system.

Only in NO-Limit Holdem Heads-UP. And that system has already been published.

A system has already been written, as stated above.

One of the biggest misconceptions about casino poker is that you don't play against the house. You surely do play against the house. The house plays in the form of a rake. The rake will beat you just as surely as your opponent will beat you.
