Well are equally important in my opinion as well as discipline. Sometimes you can get sucked into situations on the poker table. Trick is to keep a good strategy and stick with it

Both. Aggressive play can be part of your strategy depending on the situation

Je li poker igra agresije ili strategije?
Poker je igra i agresija i strategije, a hoće li agresija biti veća ili manja ovisi o više čimbenika, odnosno dosta ovisi o cilju koji smo postavili, financijskom stanju, igrača za stolom...

It is a Game of strategy and aggression it is one of those strategies, to me poker it's a game of adaptation, you must always adapt your strategy to the environment almost like in life, you must take in a lot of variables and give a response, make a decision like in life, that's why I like it so much it's exiting, and you can learn of your poker studies and training to make better decisions in life as well...

Good luck and welcome to CC ;)

Strategic use of skill , aggression. Players' manipulation , games with the RNG . Pure aggression only gives poor results .

One of the poker strategies is aggression. But only with it you can't always win, remembering that there is a lot of variance in the game. That's why you should be aggressive, especially with your value hands, but folding is also a tool that, when well applied, takes us out of several situations where we could put our tournament at risk.
On certain flops, checking is the best option and a well applied probe is capable of yielding more than an improper cbet.
Studying the different scenarios and knowing how to play each spot is difficult, but it is the best strategy to use. It takes time and discipline, but it's not impossible.

It is a game of strategy, aggression, exploiting and adapting too the players/table you're facing.

I think poker is a game of strategy and aggressive play is an important aspect of poker strategy. It helps realize fold equity.

Poker is a game with a little bit of everything. Strategy I think is the most important factor at a distance

Poker is a game that involves both aggression and strategy. Aggression is an important part of poker as players often need to be aggressive in order to win pots and put pressure on their opponents.
Strategy is equally important in poker as players need to make careful decisions about how to play their hands, when to bet and when to fold.

Poker certainly includes both situations, you need strategy to choose the best moves and aggressiveness to stay in the game and take the chips.

It's definitely a game of strategy. Aggression can be added, as needed, much like adding candied sprinkles or nuts to a chocolate sundae; it just looks more appealing and correct.

You should play moderately aggressive, but not always.

In my opinion, this game is more strategic because you need to understand when to just pick, when to raise, and when to just check
