The Solution to Saturation


Let’s talk about poker, since maybe you play it and I am qualified to talk about it. Maybe fix it? Firstly, not all is bad and a lot of the solution is hinted at and already happening. Stratified success is going to be a big theme of the solution here, and you are probably thinking of this in terms of money. And you’re largely right. Money is still important and a large factor. 


As I write this, I realize also that it may be important to list out all the possibilities for each 



Stratified Success in Variants of Poker 


Poker is not just nine handed ring no-limit holdem. There are all kinds of games such as pot-limit omaha, mixed games, online games, private games, whatever. These variations helped diversify the economy and gave more outlets for people to win at. It’s important to show these as a source of poker’s solution because they’ve prolonged the game massively! The invention of additional games such as the squid game have helped a lot also. Point being, why then do we not create systems to create more of them? 


Yours truly is on the case, as this will be one of the features of the Jungleverse community being released that people may suggest variants of a game for a chance to EARN MONEY if their idea is selected. On the operations end, poker sites should experiment with running different variants but conservatively as if like any speculative investment that may payoff asymmetrically.


Stratified Success in Jobs 


Giving jobs is one the best ways to help people and superior to charity in helping people. So obviously there are all kinds of jobs around poker. Working in the media, dealing, running sites, coaching, affiliate deals, etc. But guess what, there’s also a bunch of other jobs that can totally be given out and can even help poker players learn! I started writing a list, on the list I’ve got: 


Poker math, Vetting (for a justice system), game scouting (live and online), “Promoter (where are the girls?),” software development, running seminars, hidden value report (on rake, bonuses, etc), data analysis and abstraction, content planning and creation, editing, photocopying, intel gathering, Intern, news reporting, verification (of games and other resources), Live data mining, sim running, etc 


Successful people and players don’t have much time, but less successful ones do. The possibilities of jobs given seem to barely be expounded on, and poker players are a rare bunch that are willing to try new things. A jobs market will also be offered in the Jungleverse. 


Stratified Success Beyond Money and for the Rich
