Skill or Luck?

[Confucius]

Imo it takes some luck to get a decent hand and match the right cards, but poker is mostly skill, because a bad player would not bluff good, would not know how to react to certain situations or know when he should just fold.

So overall I'd say poker is 20-30% luck and 70-80% skill, given that a pro with 7 2 could possibly beat someone new to the game who only knows to bet when you have a good hand xD

Heavily on skill. You always hear the pros saying "I haven't been all in yet in this tourney" that's how they get deep.

It's definitely a combination of both. I'd say 50/50.

It may seem like there is more luck involved with all the donkeys but it is usually about the same.

its about 50/50 if someone keeps getting lucky at your table you cant do anything but fold most of the time

50-50? Man I gotta think its at least 75\25 I mean

[DisturbedPoker]

I think poker is more luck than it is skill because you never know what card will come out next and people chase draws.

[mdqpool]

50 and 50

In the future, to poker does not affect luck. In the long run experienced player in any case would be in the black. Luck has meaning only in the short run.
