hero knowledge in Scrum planning poker

This seems to lead to a scenario in which others just come up or down to the hero's estimate. It's not hard to talk others there as they know they are not in the know.

 
 

Where I work there is a growing inclination to skip using the cards with the Fibonacci sequence spread across them and to just talk our way to a consensus on a number for story points for any one story. On a team of seven not everyone is going to be equal in knowledge for every story. Often someone may more or less have the estimate standalone and it's just a matter of acknowledging it aloud.
