What does lucky mean to you in poker?

vassourilson · Mar 14, 2018

To me, being lucky is not only having a great hand.

But actually having the winning hand while the other players have great hands.

Mare10 · Mar 14, 2018

For me very important thinks

without lucky no money

I don't like to be lucky in poker, I like to win because I have played it the best I can and I gii good.

I always think of being lucky is gii bad and sucking out, which I do not want to do.

I do see myself as lucky if my PP finally holds against a drawing hand, as I lose a lot of flips like that, but it is not really luck if say your 77 beats TJ+ QT+ KT+ or any A as you were favourite pre.

luck comes sometimes, no matter what

izzyill · Mar 14, 2018

luck to me means that you hit a 1 outter when ur crushed

Mateo · Mar 14, 2018

Luck to me is when you're losing and hit the few outs you have to take down the pot l. Even more so when there is some direct monetary gain from that take down

Luck is when everything runs according to your plans and nothing hits you from the side out of a sudden. :bike:

is very important for me . poker is 65% skills and 35% lucky

hugh blair · Mar 14, 2018

If it was not for bad luck I would have no luck at all

XYZ2123 · Mar 15, 2018

There is no luck, only variance. The idea of luck makes it too personal and when things go badly inevitably leads to tilt.

Jimboskie · Mar 15, 2018

I've found that luck is quite predictable in poker. Shouldn't be a surprise. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often at the tables...

Gohaku94 · Mar 15, 2018

Luck is getting it in bad, improving to a winning hand and holding by the end of the hand.

Andrei Korolev · Mar 15, 2018

When you already think will lose but the river you get stronger...

infonazar · Mar 15, 2018

Sometimes it happens.

But usually, if I don't play good, luck don't help me.

haiiG · Mar 15, 2018

As a short stack in the late stage of the game, I beg for luck since I can't wait any longer for priority hands. (I hope that I'm not dominated and if I am - to get lucky :])

CriesuaID · Mar 15, 2018

In a single hand luck can help a lot, but in long term you need to be a good player to win.

GRIN281289 · Mar 15, 2018

on poker stars so always was lucky or not can be called lottery

Shalarin · Mar 15, 2018

lucky is for me, when I sometimes play a bad hand that I should have foldet but I do win with it. But I always feel a little guilty at the player who lost

Dailon Arroyo Blandon · Mar 15, 2018

I do not like to believe or think that poker is a game of luck ... in poker one chooses which hands to play and which hands do not ... sometimes you can lose a premium hand like AA ... however that is calls variance and before betting one knows the percentage of possibilities each hand has to win ...! One can win or lose in poker by his own decisions ...!

wrabinho · Mar 15, 2018

for me lucky is everything in poker..

Cashcards · Mar 15, 2018

luck is good for me)

Stacker · Mar 15, 2018

I think you put yourself in position to be lucky. You can't always just raise with AA or KK you become to predictable. Three bet with suited connectors and good things can happen also

freddy66 · Mar 15, 2018

its involved but.....

for me unless its a 2-4 out suckout,luck means nothing to me anymore when it comes to poker,im more into not making mistakes....not beating myself,if they suck out so be it....but making the right decision is what i want to concentrate on.im sure alot dis-agree,and thats ok also.but thats my thoughts on luck.

redmast · Mar 15, 2018

I believe that my luck has already met with me. To have a good victory in poker is not given to everyone. I was lucky. Let and you all be lucky in poker.

texantuner · Mar 15, 2018

To me being "lucky" is misreading a guys hand but I have small chance to win due to outs. For instance, one hand I was in I had KhQh on the button and called a $50 raise preflop putting the guy on Aces or Kings. I only called because I had position behind him and if I hit my flush or a straight I'm sitting pretty. If not then I lose $50 and I'll have to tighten up for a bit to make it back. So the flop comes TcJsKs and he bets out only half pot. I instantly put him on Aces and he's a little worried I might have flopped the straight because he didn't bet his usual 75-80% of the pot. I went ahead and represented the straight and went all in for $137. He snap called and showed AsQc for the broadway. I'm now drawing to the only three aces left in the deck. I've got a 13% chance on the turn and 7% chance on the river to catch one. I got "lucky" and hit Ah on the river to chop the pot.
