"People think mastering the skill is the hard part, but they're wrong....The trick to poker is mastering the luck"

just wondering if anyone else has some good quotes...
just leave me a messages if ya will....telling me how u like or not like my quote.
And how do we master what we can't control? Intuition? No, I think we're just back to mastering skill... maybe that's all we can do.

Oh, I've got a few favorite poker quotes that really resonate with me:
  1. "In poker, you don't have to play every hand. It's okay to fold and wait for a better opportunity."
  2. "The beautiful thing about poker is that everybody thinks they can play."
  3. "Poker is a skill game pretending to be a chance game."
  4. "Trust everyone, but always cut the cards."
  5. "It's not whether you won or lost, but how many bad-beat stories you were able to tell."
  6. "Poker is a lot like sex. Everyone thinks they are the best, but most don't have a clue what they are doing."
  7. "If you can't spot the sucker in your first half-hour at the table, then you are the sucker."
  8. "Fold and live to fold again."
These quotes capture the essence of poker – the blend of skill, strategy, psychology, and a good dose of humor that makes the game so captivating.

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect...

This isn't a phrase, but I like the words from a Sting's song.
