I believe if you're on a loosing streak. take a break. thinking you're due or owed is a huge mistake

Luck is a necessary element of a good result.

When you look at the cards in a tournament, luck is a big factor. Whether you play a tournament where the strongest hand you get is A10 in two hours or play one where you get AA three times in a row, there is a difference (whether you win with them is another matter). I think we all know that there are days when “the force is with us” and there are days when no matter what we do, we just can’t win.

In my opinion, poker is a combination of three components. First and foremost, it is your skills, your experience and your luck. And while your skills and experience depend solely on you, luck is a component that generally does not depend on you.

Hello Poker Fans,
The aspect of poker that everyone wishes is on their side, whether; you believe in it or not or call it something else...
When a player defies the odds and nails a one-outter, you can call it what you want but many would say that LUCK was not just with them but hit that player in the face. Of course, some players seem to have more than their fair share or, as they say, "just make very profitable decisions". Whatever it is, probability seems to take a back seat to Lady LUCK.
This is part of poker, LUCK is here to stay and a part of the game that many people cling to when their back is against the wall of their spider senses are tingling!
When it matters most, you definitely want a piece of it and believe in it wholeheartedly - LUCK

Honestly, every time I hear someone say “Poker is a game of skill, not luck,” I feel like inviting them to sit with me at my tables for a while… maybe they'll change their mind after their first bad beat 😂
I truly believe luck makes up 90% of success in poker. The other 10%? A mix of praying, staying calm, and knowing when to shut your laptop before you lose your dignity.
You’ve got people out there living by GTO charts, running range calculations, studying solver outputs like they’re in a lab. Respect to them — seriously. But let’s be real: when someone calls you down with 7-2 offsuit and magically hits a flush on the river… no amount of strategy is gonna save you 😅
Poker is a game of luck with a strategic disguise — not the other way around.
Play it right, you still lose. Play it crazy, sometimes you win. That’s the game. So spare us the lecture on elite strategy, and just hope the deck shows you some love for once 😄

Poker is a mix of luck and skill, but skill dominates in the long run. Luck plays a big role in short-term results because you can’t control the cards you or your opponents get. However, decisions based on math, psychology, and strategy determine long-term success. Skilled players consistently outperform weaker ones by managing risk, reading opponents, and applying probability. In essence, luck decides who wins today, but skill decides who wins over months and years.

Luck is part of the game , but online the manipulation of pot odds and rng plays the most important role , that's why joker stars and bingo clowns have very good winning results . You can watch them the way they play one blind or two or three blinds or 4-20 blinds stacks and how they get rewarded by rng everywhere . Their gameplay is just funny to me , it doesn't irritate me at all . Only annoying is when you discuss this with people that deny it . These discussions are really stupid .

Def. luck is a huge part.
I once saw someone live who got dealed AA 6 times within 2 hours. He still busted 'cause he was fairly new though.
Skill however is the thing that can make you profitable long term.
