if u try to win it on skill some lucker comes and screws u, if u try to win it on luck some clever boy throws his skills on ur face....wellll ...... :)
I think it requires both, but more skill than luck. Sometimes you do get lucky and win flips or hit a 2 or 3 outer depending on the situation.
The way I answer if poker is skill or luck is by saying that luck is more important on the short run and skill plays in the long run.
I think it was kind of skillful how you managed to get 15 points (3 posts) out of the exact same topic by just changing the words
It looks like 2 of em were deleted LMFAO Luck is playing for the suckout and skill is knowing when ur beat and fold but you need both onlineQuote:

A quote from Phil Hellmuth. If poker was all skill I would never lose. LMAO. So I have to say it is probaly 50/50.

If you aint good you wont win....simple as that....Believe what you wanna believe..:) GOOD LUCK!!! LOL
poker most definetly involves both skill and luck
kind of a dumb question don't you think? lol
I think mainly skill, but you also need a little (or sometimes a lotta) luck. If someone you see is consistently ITM, at final tables, etc. I think that proves they have skills. I mean how consistently lucky can you get in my opinion.
The best way I have heard it described is this. Can you intentionally lose in poker? Yes. You could fold every hand and lose everytime. Your odds of winning/losing are completely determined by your actions. Can you intentionally lose in roulette? No. Your odds of winning and losing are the same no matter what your actions are. Poker is a game of skill that involves luck.
poker is a game of skill, anyone who says its a game of luck obviously has no skill.
theres skill involved, but i think theres more luck then people think!
