I think both are important, although skill is always the one that helps the most to achieve great things in poker.

I use skill as much as I can, but luck does play a huge roll. Sometimes they hit that 5% chance on the river

You need both, but with strategy you at least make your chances go up by that crucial 1 percent I guess. Thats atleast how I see it.

The question is a verry tricky. At the freerolls, when begins all in pre flop, the luck preside (skill also preside), (just drop it and watch, there is nothing to do), everything can hapend. The skill, more or less, is game for postflop (luck preside too, so, they go hand by hand, can't escape it).

Last night i was a witness, how many "big hands" fall down at the all in batle: AK vs QJ; 99 vs QQ and so on.

And last but not least, there were also many quality games after the flop (last night)...

:)

(Oh, i forgot for the strategy: well, I prefer to have no one in front of me when I push, and mostly "good hands" are played. )

I think poker is about being lucky, no matter how hard you study, in the end, luck is what makes you win or lose.

I agree with the opinion that poker is a combination of luck and skill. The strategy for playing at different stages of the tournament is good, I don't argue, but you need to constantly hone your skills and skills in playing your cards. And luck - she likes the stubborn, in short stages - daredevil may be a favorite, but it doesn't last long. I think luck is like a train passing by when you're doing it right and ready for a quick change — jump in!!! as they say, “in the saddle”.

I always play the players I have stats on. I don't believe in my luck, although it is an important aspect of poker. But still, good decision making is the main tool for success in poker tournaments. Luck may be present in the early stages of a tournament, but not in the later stages. :sneaky::unsure:

By my opinion, in Poker, as by the way and in Life, the All is very important! And Skill, and Luck, and the many of other things! That's it!

70 % skill
30 % luck
You try to minimize luck, but you have to accept it is part of the game.

Well that depends on what I'm playing and my opponents, but it's better to use the ability and have a little luck.

the important part is that you should always be happy with the decision you made, before seeing the outcome. luck is on everyone, just let it do its thing ^^

Good morning everyone, poker is not a game where the luck factor is very relevant, as a general rule, the most important thing is technical knowledge, patience, study and volume, this is the secret of every player who is profitable at poker.
Is it possible to get lucky and win money in the short term in poker?
Yes it is possible, there are some modes in which the luck factor is more relevant, for example spin go, you can take one day and play a spin go the jackpot happens to come, the highest prize in the spins roulette wheel, then you will win a lot money but relying on luck, as a general rule poker is a long term game.

The best strategy is to study the odds. I'll leave the rest to chance.

If you do not have a strategy and skill, then you will not see good luck:)

Perhaps both options. In any case, you'll have to go to Wabank a couple of times during the entire tournament. And even with the best maps, you can lose.
