Poker is a game of skill. Anyone who thinks poker is a game of luck doesn't understand the game and how skill is a huge contributor when winning the larger pot.

I think both.Skill will no let you win every time,even for a period of time.So ove the short tern,luck take import role.But over the long tern,you must have enough skill.

I agree that poker is a game of skill - on the long run.
Every hand however is based on luck (or the RNG involved).
This is why chosing your hand range and good bank-roll management are essential.
You might lose a hand to a complete fish/donk but in the long run you will profit from him.

I do also think a combination of both luck and skill but for the most part skill is the main thing and I believe that would show over time. The 1 site I play most of my poker on I've seen a select few people who seem to time and time again cash in some of the biggger tourneys and when sharkscoping them saw some off their profits for the course of the year. I believe this consistency is due to their high poker sense and knowing pot odds,percentages and not playing some of the lower end hands that the average joe will throw chips away on etc.,which in turn allows them to make more tourneys and ring games profitable for themselves

Like in every game, for winning you must have knowledge of basics as well as special skills. Poker is a game dependent on skills but many a times luck plays major role and gives surprises too.

A good player's view = 75% skill + 25% luck
A pro's view = 100% skill + 0% luck 😡

Poker is about 90% skill, 10% luck...the luck part comes when the cards are first dealt. the player has no control over the cards dealt. the skill is what comes in after that. betting, knowledge of the game and of the opponents are not luck...those parts must be learned through play.

Luck is being all-in pre-flop and winning, Skill is pushing all-in post-flop and winning

Well as far as online poker goes its like 80% luck 15% donking someone and 5% skill
were in real life poker at a table seeing people poker is about say 85 % skill and 15% luck and being able to read players and knowing there tells
online poker its hard to do all that so thats why is more luck then skill and u have all kinds of players playing online were most the time at a table it be skilled players playing real poker hands

Poker does require some skill, without skill you would be betting on everything. However, I do believe luck is also a big part of the game.

There is no luck in poker....save that ideology for the slots.Poker is a much more complex game that requires some sort of thinking logic behind it.
