No strategy does not help with tough olinas with garbage hands, it's just crazy at tournaments.

In the cache, only the skills are important, and in tournaments and skills the main thing and good luck is much for victory.

I think poker is 80% strategy and 20% luck and my game improved a lot after I started to study ...

Poker is not a game based on luck. But sure help is always appreciated. So there is always a little percent of the luck you need in poker :)

poker is a little bit of skill and luck in the short term, but over time skill always rises to the top imo.

I think the most important thing is to have a strategy, because if you play for it, you win in the long run. You may have to lose yourself to worse hands, but it is important not to be a coward.

I think strategy goes a long way and the luck is good to have. I want to be a winning player. I need to find a way to win and keep winning. I am pretty sure I need to fold more because if you do not have a good starting hand then relying on luck becomes heavier. And the more I rely on luck it doesn't work.

I would say it is 80% skill / 20% luck in poker.

What do you think about this thread?
I've read to much about poker strategy, but the luck is not with me lately at the table.






For a successful game you need a sinking of luck, intuition, your good mood for the game, your experience and your skills! You can not win a tournament with only luck, but you can not win only with skills. Everything should harmoniously blend!:party:

Poker is a strategy in which you should be good at playing to wait for good combinations or be able to bluff, but luck will come to you at any moment or come to another player who is luckier!

Hi.
I believe, that without a good strategy there will be no prospect of success.
But it is also obvious that success will not be without luck. Therefore, these are mutually exclusive facts.

You can be strategic all you want, but when the board shows that youve lost, well then, make a new strategy for getting off the table :)

Both. You can have a strategy to be less unlucky but sometimes you do everything right and just lose.

Poker is a game of chance and therefore a game of LUCK. Strategize as much as you like , if your opponent has better cards you lose.

The classic question. The luck varies according to the emotional, philosophical, religious or mystical context of who interprets. According to the dictionary, luck is "a force without purpose, unpredictable and uncontrollable, that shapes events in a manner favorable or unfavorable to a particular individual, group or cause."

However, to imagine that there luck is to suppose that there the possibility of changing destiny, according to certain conditions that generate the events (merit for example) since that destiny is the synonym of fatality, programming or imposed by larger forces, affected by our direct or indirect action.
