[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 5706673, member: 957"] I think you are missing the point. Everything else being equal the odds of a given hand winning is in no way impacted by the pot. Just as a character's ability to do things is in no way impacted by how many HP or surges he has left. The willingness to take the risk depends on the risk/reward for that hand. But that is a different point. The hand (and the character) is not one bit less or more effective for any variation of pot and bet (or surges or lack thereof) Clearly we vastly disagree. And if it is good for you then that is all that matters. But this thread is about why would someone dislike them, so you having a different standard doesn't really have any relevance. For me, I can't think of ANY cinematic example of a group of characters all incapable of receiving any wound that they could not simply ignore briefly but actually make truly and completely go away.
