"Luck or skill: what weighs more in poker in the long run?"

Hospedar said:

You can, obviously, never win a poker hand in your entire life, even if you are the best poker player in world, as luck has it's hole and may destroy your game easily.

But this is statistically almost impossible to happen...

In long run you will have the tendency to always be in advantage and, consequently, win by your positive EV.



It depends, but this is a great question!

I remember when I once heard from a poker pro saying something very interesting to think about; it was something like: "The 'long term' is not something to care about, because it will never arrive", since the "long term" is just a theorical concept to complement the tendency to win that I told above.
