• playing poker at a primary table consisting of two or more primary players, wherein said primary players at said primary table make their own playing decisions;
• and
• playing poker at a first derivative table consisting of two or more derivative players, wherein each of said derivative players at said first derivative table has a corresponding primary player at said primary table, and further wherein said derivative players at said first derivative table are dealt the same cards as their corresponding primary players at said primary table, and wherein the playing decisions of said derivative players at said first derivative table are exactly the same as the playing decisions made by their corresponding primary players at said primary table, further wherein said derivative players have the option to not make the same playing decisions made by their corresponding primary player, but to make a different decision of their own choosing.
