You example of two teams being equal is wrong. Firstly a team with more stamina or who's breaking through a defence more often than the other, thus giving a chance of someone giving away a penalty means that the other team is more skilled than the other and they aren't equal in terms of skill and it isn't coming down to luck. If we say for arguments sake you have a set of equally good players on a team who are all just as good as each other yet one team gets more tired quicker than the other, then overall the team with the more stamina now has an edge over this team so we should expect that team to come out on top more often.

In regards to poker, it's about making adjustments to other players games. If someone has picked up on ones betting pattern or timing tells etc, good players will adjust and so will the other player who knows he's adjusting. Noone can be equally as good as the other in poker imo, someone will always have an edge on someone else even if that edge is small, it's still and edge which will equate to them having a better winrate over a large sample. It's all about who can adjust more over the long term.

So no, poker isn't a game of a luck/chance between two people who are similar in regards to their poker abilities. A losing player who can't beat another player and thinks it's coming down to luck or chance yet feels he's just as good as them, is actually in denial and a dog in the game they are playing.
