Message: [QUOTE="feecg, post: 3656985, member: 225267"] Poker is considered a mental game and with the proper skills you'll be able to be lucrative at long run, it's not strange that the top players always are winners, I mean, would they get lucky every time till they reach the top?, and even more lucky to stat there? Surely luck has part in it, but it's minimal, about 15%, the other 85% is purely skill. To have skill in poker doesn't mean you'll win every pot, it means that you'll know what to do in each situation and each spot, sometimes you'll have to do the most profitable play in a spot, and in other spots (I would say, most of the time) you will need to know what is the less unprofitable play so you don't spare money on bad pots. This is why the Tight Aggressive is the optimal strategy in most cases, cause it's not that complicated and it's very profitable by the time you are able to extract a lot of chips from the opponents.
