Luck

Luck
I believe in luck
mainly when it comes to games in general
and then poker is not even mentioned I think 60% of the game in poker can be based on luck

Not sure you can, I have never had luck, so if there is a way of getting luck I would really like to know. I think Lee Trevino said it best after a fan said lucky putt, "The more I practise the luckier I get". That is true of any sport including poker, practise practise and what seems like luck will actually be skill.

clear and who does not believe, in the same way that I believe in bad luck

bethqueen · Mar 26, 2022

I do not believe. I believe the rating is related to the mathematical probabilities possible on a certain thing. The concept of luck goes a lot towards this mathematical side, which I believe I believe in. Flip heads and tails 10 infinite times and beat me, flip and let's tie.

bigthereal · Mar 26, 2022

yes, I do, if not luck then it is fate, hand of god or something like this

Like2Play2 · Mar 26, 2022

Yes I do believe in luck and because I believe in it
It does come my way

Sometimes i believe in luck but at the same time i see all the situations to do a move.

Of course, without luck, there are no winnings in poker. You always have to keep in mind that there is a very high variance in poker. What is variance? Now let's say a good online player wins 5 big blinds over 100 hands. The normal variance for such a player is 100 big blinds per 100 hands. Means he can lose 95 big blinds over 100 hands. With low win rates, the variance plays a very important role. You have to play a lot of hands to even out the variance. That's why you often need luck to make a profit

Good luck - to believe in him. I feel like there are days when luck is with you - good cards. On the other hand, poker can not be played only with luck, you need for good play is experience, the right strategy, patience. If you rely too much on luck you will lose! I try to play sensibly and not rely entirely on luck. Good luck to all!

Snake2007 · Mar 26, 2022

Yes i believe.

pjokay · Mar 26, 2022

Of course, sometimes you make a hand when you shouldn't and that is luck. When you shove preflop KK and beat AA hitting KKK that is luck. Poker is not a certainty and a game of incomplete information. Luck is definitely an element.

AizenFalck said:
I do believe in luck, but it seems that luck in poker has a different name, it's called variance, whenever I say bad luck or good luck at a table, someone has to come out and correct me, which is the variance of poker. Will this be true? Is luck equal to variance?

The variance called luck

As the great philosopher said "Luck is for those who have it, not for those who want". Both in life and in the game at times luck will smile for us, but for me it hasn't come very often, but I keep smiling.

It’s impossible to play and not believe in luck, because when the only card that makes you a winner comes to the river, then you believe in anyone

Luck is essentially the lack of knowledge, so since it is difficult to know everything, we place our hopes in luck. So as much as we gather knowledge and experience the least our moves need luck.

nimburkx · Mar 26, 2022

beneath the luck is great hard work!

Oranaro · Mar 26, 2022

I think luck does exist, but not as an entity, but as a consequence of "choice". When there are different results for one event, luck does exist. Well there is different types of it, as for exemple in poker, as we take it live, the cards are determined from the time the dealer starts distributing them. While in quantum physics, it is know that a system isn't determined before mesuring it, as all the possible ways exist at the same time, until we measure them. In the first exemple, the luck is due to lack of information, and in the second is due to a physical consequence of measurement and interaction.

I certainly believe in luck unless the odds are stacked against you. I have always been lucky. Example: I do not expect to be lucky if I go all in with a pair of duces because the odds are stacked against me which most poker players already know.

pocketace222 · Mar 26, 2022

You'd best believe there's luck in poker. You don't always need it but you can say you need to get lucky to not have another player get lucky against you.... and what defines lucky
... it's lucky to catch set over set and be the higher set. Or straight flush ect. Playing by math is huge but there's luck and you need it to make deep runs in tournaments or pile chips in a cash game

viacheslavtezikov · Mar 26, 2022

I believe in luck, because it seems to me that it is impossible to win a tournament without luck. If you play cash games, then you need more skill here, and only fish are lucky.

Kenorgcom · Mar 26, 2022

I do believe in it, because you see it all the time, unless you just don’t recognize it.

speper · Mar 26, 2022

Of course, the game is present in a significant proportion, and the biggest professionals fail in front of luck.

kanycta99 · Mar 26, 2022

Of course. Luck is all around us, we just need to wait a little bit....

Raphael Zabel · Mar 26, 2022

Luck appears from time to time, as does the lack of it. The skill and experience help to take advantage of it.
