I can't say the exact percentage, but I think it's negative. When it's a flip, I lose 75% of the hands.
So you cant say the exact percentage (which is understandable) but when it comes to flips you suddenly know i it and it's exactly 75 %? why not 70 %? Or 80%?
 
In any game, you need luck, especially when you are gambling and for money, there is a theory of probability and variance
 
My luck percentage, even at the best of times, might exceed 20%, but my poker strategy doesn't rely on luck at all. Yes, I'll take advantage of that lucky moment, but I'll immediately forget the word "luck" once it😅

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Brah, are you reading yourself? 💩

Is that why you play 5~10 games to win once? Cause its just a small percentage...
Well, then there's something really wrong with your skills right? 🤣
KKKKKK OMG MAN, people are weird...

Do you see now, why I doubt it? This is the exact same person that will later on assure you that pokers sites are legit.
Now, how can anyone ever trust this "source"? You tell me.

How much would you say my fellow scientist? 5%? 10%? 15%?
Please, enlighten me with your expertise.


Why are you getting so upset?

Honestly you sound like someone who is relatively new to the game. Your attitude is going to really keep you from getting better at the game.

You do realize that there are players today who are winning players.... don't you???

My situation is difficult; February, March, and April are the months that treat me best. The rest of the year, I'm more lost than Amelia Earhart.

It's hard to define online... physical factors, communication style, gestures are missing, so you have good luck online.
 
I’m not sure I understand how you measured that 2% luck. Could you explain how you came up with that percentage?

I don't know if it's luck or the algorithm of the poker software, how much money you deposit and run, depending on this you are "helped" by the software

Luck is present and will always be. It doesn't make sense to talk much more about it.

Well, I am of the opinion that it's not about luck, it's about learning to play the right way and making the least amount of mistakes, knowing how to take care of your bank and knowing that there are all possible possibilities at the tables, you have to be 100% focused when playing.
 
Luck accounts for less than half of success, an estimated 40 percent. The remaining 60 percent is skill, knowledge, and stress tolerance. Says a pro who has played poker for 3 decades.
 
online poker has more variance because you play many more hands per hour than live poker, so you'll experience bad beats more frequently, people often think that it's luck based but it's not
 
It's definitely a factor; there's no doubt about that. Whether it's decisive in the long run is a different story.
 
I'm going through a rough run of bad luck in poker right now, but I know it's only temporary and things will eventually return to normal. The most important thing during these downswings is not to let them affect your decision-making or keep you from making the correct plays.
 
In a single hand: luck can account for 80–95% of the outcome. Even the best play can lose to a weaker hand.
Over a short session (100–500 hands): luck still plays a very significant role, accounting for roughly 60–80% of the results.
Over tens or hundreds of thousands of hands: skill becomes the dominant factor in determining the outcome. Luck is still present, but its influence decreases significantly.
