Luck becomes a very big factor these days, because everyone knows how to play decent poker after reading all of those strategies & s*it, it's really hard to find a true fish (those I've played with a few) where it would be 99% skill and 1% luck.


You probably never played pokerari poker and hollywood poker...
That's the fish heaven :D

i think its skill more than 80% - over the thing time (>2 years). and its only luck over the short range (one hand) for over 80%. so take it as you like for the moment - lol.

when i play i believe 50 proc in luck and 50 proc in my skills, i like to bluff so its luck, and i like when players think that i am bluffing but i have a good hand, so its skill.

I played at Hollywood, cash tables we're impossible, i raise to $2 with AQ and 4 people call and stuff, so I went to play SnG 20+2$, got my QQ beat by K8 from UTG, AA beat by KT, KK beat by A2.. ETC.. lost $100 in total and decided never to play with idiots again.

I think poker is a game of skill. Luck is not so important. The only important thing that your opponent will not get lucky against you :)

That's where I usually make the most money - playing 20$ SNG at hollywood with your mentioned idiots :D
they bring me an additional paycheck from poker each month ($)
