The main skill, luck is important only at a short distanceRedbull199030 said:
something is not right
For me, there are different types of luck and skill in the game, in a cash game there are more skills, players shove less in the all-in AK AD play more in collecting combinations, and for me in the cash game somewhere 80% of the skills and the rest for luck, and in tournaments I noticed many times that many players often play all-in on AQ AJ AK and many players are helped not by skills but just luck and in the tournament for me 60-70% of skills and the rest is played by luck!Redbull199030 said:

you need luck. you need to be able to ger the cards. hope that your pocket aces hold up. hope you ger ypur flush or straight draws. hope you flop a high hand when they have a high hand promo. and hope you can ger the bad end of the bad beat jack pot. so luck is always better than skill. cause if it was just skill . same people would always win the big event in wsop. and the reason you do see the same people like phil helmuth is cause hes sponsered in eevey big tourny n onlu wons few just imagine how you would do if you were sponsered in every tourny and disnt have to worry about the money.Redbull199030 said:

There is no doubt that skill and luck both play a place in poker, however I am rapidly learning that good luck and bad luck seem to run in streaks. Today I was in the 888 $500 freeroll early in the tourney, I had amassed about three times the chips of all at my table, I get 10 10 end up all in against 63suited, yep he flushes, a few hands later I get AKsuited end up all in again and lose to 55, and three times is unlucky, I have KK all in and am covered by AJ he flops AJ and I am done, so the bad luck just like the good luck runs in streaks, now if only we could tell in advance which cycle (good or bad ) are we in...lolRedbull199030 said:
