How important is luck?

30% of your luck depends on 70% of your skill. I think something like this.

Luck and bad luck are part of the game. You can minimise the impact with good skills,but your hand is given randomly, so luck is always a factor.

Keep in mind that the theory is based on million samples. You will never find the time to play this million of hands to be EV+

Nevertheless the games is fun, isn't it?

Without luck, it seems to me not to drag tournaments, and in the cash you can drain your bankroll if your nut hands are constantly moving, connectors also do not go through, any pairs are broken against unsuited 72, 93 and so on. Alas, already every day there are such transfers everywhere. I try not to tilt, so I really want a little luck.

How important is luck and how I could minimize its impact on my results. Still, I tend to rely on my own skills rather than luck.

Restrain your impulsiveness, that will clean the way for your skills. Take your time before apply your next action.

I am a believer in making your own luck. Playing smart, changing styles, bullying and my favorite slap and tickle time.

I think the luck factor has its percentage in all poker tournaments. When the blinds taper, there's usually no way for you to escape going All in pre flop and face that Flip, 55% - 45%, or that 70% - 30%, regardless of what situation, you'll have to root for your hand hold or hit.
Even in hands post flop, you will find the same situations and will have to twist Turn and River.

really important.. without some luck you will never win a tournament!

imo that is

Luck is very important.

 

[Angel v rai]

I think 60 percent good luck and 40 percent experience. There are people who are lucky). I'm not one of them)

 

[1nsomn1a]

luck is very important in poker, because despite your skills, you should be very lucky not to have frequent bad beats.

Nice to see a thread where people are generally honest about how big a factor luck is within the game.

My perspective is skill and patience can get you to the cash, luck becomes an overriding factor to get you to the final table and winning itself? Well that's pretty much 100% luck!

Luck can be a big factor but skill will win most tourneys.

Hello.
Of course, luck plays an important role, but with experience you will see that your skills, patience, and discipline are more important.

The more you study the game, the less you need luck. but he will still be part of the game.

Poker is a combination of luck and skill. People think mastering the skill part is hard, but they’re wrong. The trick to poker is mastering the luck. Jesse May.

I'm still struggling with the luck part of my game. But some day, some day, some day ...............

 

[johnmaltz19]

Bad players and good players have the same luck. Only differs on skill so relying on luck too much is gonna cost you money in the long term. And of course luck could be life changing as well.

I agree with you. I think so too. Apparently, thanks to experience and skill, our chances of luck increase.

 

[HTML]

you always need luck.

 

[recerveau]

In fact, luck is implicit in the variation. In the short term, it carries a lot of weight.

 

[wengz2002]

Definitely VERY!!!

 

[57noona]

It is important. I wouldn't know how important? I feel that you can't over come the luck factor in a single tournament. I believe that there is good luck and bad luck.

 

[lezghin]

a friend of mine! you asked a very interesting question. How important is luck? , but what do you think, watching some players play live, even at major competitions. and poker championships ... we perfectly see that luck is far from the last place, we draw conclusions from here ... of course luck is the most important thing on the cards ... but fortune knows who to come to, there is such a moment, she is a very capricious thing ... and does not always turn to face us .. luck is in second place, after the ability to play

 

[valanddon]

You will win more hands with skill but luck has a bit to do with
winning also.

 

[venycyos]

As this is a game of odds, there is no way to rule out the luck factor. However, playing good players can play without seeing their own cards, it means that it is possible to play competitively even without luck, to minimize the effects of luck we have to have many skills. Today I count on luck.

Hi bro. Luck is needed. I always start to pray when I have AA on my hands and the opponent has 37o : - D. 70% of the victory is luck, and everything else is skill.This is poker.:deal::angel:
