I believe that poker is a more casual game than chess. Although chess is very intelligent and addictive game. So I prefer poker, but I do not know how to play chess at all:D:D:D:D

I love both

The difficult in both games are measured by the ourself skill and by the skill of our opponents. Both have many difficult levels. Certainly for negreanu, dwan and other poker players, poker is easier. But for garry kasparov, poker is harder. All of we that play poker know how this game is hard instead we know and study a lot about it. A lot of people talk poker is easy, but they aren't profitable.

both are mental sports, but I consider that poker carries a greater degree of difficulty having more players in the game, that is why the strategy changes if you play 2, 6, 8, 9 or 10. and what you think is a part of chance or luck is not, since if you analyze each hand are all possibilities, you can only talk about%. poker is more complicated than chess.

In poker, there is a dose of luck that in chess is unthinkable. Chess requires a lot of thinking and pre-planned moves while happiness is in the background. Poker is a skill similar to chess, but luck plays one of the main roles.

The degree of skill in chess is significantly higher. As you said, there is no tilt, and no luck in chess. Yes, moves get overlooked due to rushing or just not viewing the entire board, but if you make the better moves, you win. In poker, you can do everything perfectly and lose because of the randomness of card distribution. Poker may be more emotionally demanding because of the luck factor, but chess is by far the tougher game. A poker player will use math to calculate potential hands, and try to get a read on their opponent. A chess player must take each potential opponent move, and play it forward for several moves (as a child I was told 8 moves ahead). In short, your hand in poker is random, whereas, in chess, the game is entirely in your hands.

It's the strategy, though I'd say it has more poker elements given the toxicity of many of the players. It's a hard game. Genius IQ, and I still have trouble. It's also a game that makes you pay for your teammates' mistakes, so you need to be a team player and realize that your bad beats may be based upon your attitude, and other players' reactions to your play.

Chess is really a very clever game. Players must think through their moves on how many moves forward, 5 by 10, and also think about the possible actions of the opponent in front of

Esli on complexity, I'm still for chess. There everything is calculated for many moves forward. And in poker, I agree, too, must be calculated according to probability theory. But this is at a very long distance, and then a more cool player will always have an advantage. But if the number of chips is limited, the player on the clearly strong card is all-in, and loses this episode and all the chips, and flies out of the tournament, and all ...

You still don't understand... Chess is not a game, it is a science.

Poker is a game because it is part science part art.

Chess requires 0% creativity and 100% analysis and deep rooted memory bank.

Poker requires 30% or so creativity, 20% or so memory of hand odds and 50% or so dynamic analysis of pot odds and opponent's range to estimate bluffing, calling and folding being the wiser option.

I think you compare the warm and soft, and it does not make sense

I really love to play chess. Poker is also a good game, but this is really two different games.
