My advice to you consider yourself an unlucky player, consider that if you treat lightly and play just for luck, you will lose everything. tell yourself that if you don't work hard on your poker game you will never get lucky. this is of course negative, but it is very motivating to constantly get better.
and luck in poker certainly plays an important role, no matter what anyone says. sometimes the opponent folds not because they are afraid Of your aggression, but because they don't like their pocket cards. and the fact that your aces were not beaten by deuces is also luck.:)

10% luck and 90% how you play your card and use your position to your advantage in flop, turn, and river. Betting is also a factor in playing poker.

Hello, I have a very simple question for which I would very much like to know your opinion. How important is luck in poker? 100% what percentage would you give? I particularly think that luck is an important factor but it cannot be used as a game system. I await your opinions. Bye.:jd4::driver:
Luck definitely plays a part in the game. Getting pocket aces while your opponent has pocket Kings is not skill. It's just luck. How you play your cards is another story. Great players find ways to overcome the luck factor most of the time.

To me luck is a very important aspect of poker. I know some folks discount luck as a big factor and say that skill will somehow negate luck. I think, though, luck is more extensive in poker than we sometimes realize. Getting a good hand is an important first step to think about playing a hand (unless we are pulling a bluff, of course) but that's not all. I've had AA on the button with one limper in MP. When I made a standard 2BB raise the blinds folded and the limper went with them. My 'lucky' hand produced a very small profit. I have also had AA on the button in a MTT when a slightly smaller stack shoved with tens. I called and won a pile of chips that ended up putting me in the money. So, luck is a combination of cards dealt, both to me and my opponents, table positions, stack sizes, tournament stage etc. If all these things line up we are feeling pretty lucky. Then we try to put our skill to work to take advantage.

luck is everywhere, but for me poker is a sport, it’s mathematics, it’s an analysis, and first of all, it’s a study of game strategies, as well as a study of opponents, based on an analysis of these concepts, I use the solution to draw my range of hands, the more I use the right decisions, the more I win!

I think that in poker the player's success depends on his experience and skill. In general, I believe that 80% is skill and experience, and only 20% is luck.

Hello.
I believe that only patience is key. If you are a patient enough player, then you will succeed in any case. That is, I believe that our luck depends directly on our patience.

0% Luck) What is it? In poker, this is called RANDOMNESS. If you are a professional you will win more.

It depends if you mean in short or in a long run. In short run luck can reach more than 50% and even unexperienced player can win in a session. I am proof for this as i won live MTT in casino in one of the few times i played. In a long run though good players win and bad players loose so luck is not important factor in this case.

No higher than 20%. If you depend on it more, it's hard to imagine you could earn money long term.

It is an important factor, but it is not the number one, or in other words you don`t win only with luck. It depends from each situation how much luck will be involved. I think it doesn`t go over 20%!
