I don't understand how you can master luck at all, if someone can do that, you'll just find a bag of gold and why bother developing and so on. In my opinion, it's impossible. And poker is won with a certain level of skill and the missing percentage of luck.

Me gusta la frase porque refleja una de las mayores paradojas del póker. Aprender estrategia, rangos y matemáticas es difícil, pero al final lo que más cuesta dominar es nuestra reacción ante la suerte y la varianza. No podemos controlar las cartas que salen, pero sí cómo respondemos cuando ganamos o perdemos.
Una frase que siempre me gustó es: "El póker no consiste en ganar una mano, sino en tomar buenas decisiones una y otra vez".
Al final, los resultados van y vienen, pero las buenas decisiones son lo que realmente construyen un jugador ganador.
