Message: [QUOTE="NCfoldem, post: 1464996, member: 67240"] The biggest misconception is that it is more skill than luck. Isn't there luck/ bad luck involved with the deal of each and every card? If you get dealt A Q it's only a good hand because other players did NOT get dealt AA, KK, or QQ, for example. You can get paid off eventually if you practice at making good decisions, but your luck has to hold up at some point. Luck (bad luck) is always the big winner. It is constantly at play with every single card. Skill helps you to recognize probable outcomes if you play a hand a certain way, but you still have to rely on luck (bad luck) that the cards will behave somewhat according to the laws of probability.
