Skills are more important than luck in the long term for sure.

I don't think poker is based on luck, only poker is based on studying as well as luckI don't think poker is based on luck, only poker is based on studying as well as luck

Of course it's possible, but it won't happen often...

of course it is possible; but you have to be lucky enough to bust better hands. and win enough flips. and hope that we don't get mixed hands

I'm a big believer in math and players who count on luck in poker, out of 10 times will benefit a maximum of 2!🍀

I think you can win many hands with luck but not a tournament

We cant rely on luck alone to win tournaments. We need to mix it with good skills and discipline.

I think poker is lucky, you have to play every day, and sooner or later you're going to win, you don't need to study or anything like that.

For me, this method is possible,
but it is not always reliable,
I use it when I am tired and I cannot use plans and strategies .;)
Only people who are irresponsible towards the game and their results can afford to play poker and rely only on luck. Responsible and disciplined players will never rely on luck alone.

Luck can influence the outcome in the short term, but skill is a major factor in long-term poker success.

Luck seems to work perfect for everyone else, not for me.

It depends on what you mean by term "luck".

When we play a hand in poker, we evaluate the actions of our opponent - the size of the bet and the position from which he bets, how he played before (if there is such information) and many more factors that will influence your actions, we also take into account the strength of our own hands and making conclusions we make decisions for further actions!!! Given so many factors influencing your actions, I think you yourself understand that in the long run the method - "relying only on luck" will not work!!!

I believe it is virtually impossible. The game of poker requires skills to become a winner, just like any sport.

Luck is an important part of the poker game but you can't win relying only on it. You need to be very lucky to do so, and if you have so much luck better use it at lottery

Anything is possible in poker. But luck is a finite thing. You could win one tournament in a thousand, but it would still be a loss because luck is just a small part of experience and skill.

Not really in MTT. On a rare occasion you can run very well.

Luck in the longrun doesnt exist.
Statistics will always even out luck and bad luck if you consider a longer timeframe.

Для меня этот метод возможен,
но это не всегда надежно,
Я использую его, когда устаю и не могу использовать планы и стратегии.;)
That's the only way I play

In no way is it possible to win at poker relying only on luck, but it is also not possible to win relying only on technique. You need a little luck too. Poker is not a lottery!
