Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

  1. Play nicely with others here.
  2. Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
  3. Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

That's a very common perception for beginners in the game :). With enough plays you'll get into the mindset of playing the hand rather than forcing the hand to do something else

That's what I meant, your tactics get dictated by the hand you're dealt. And I don't like that.

Fair enough! It's definitely a love it or hate it kind of game
