no, you are not right here, this is a game of your skill, and luck is also involved here, but by making the right decisions at a distance you will be in the plus, recently I won several freerolls and earned 50 dollars from 0

Poker is a full-fledged card game like other casino games. But poker has some differences. Thanks to your skills and experience, you can have a certain advantage over other players, and this makes poker a radically different game. But poker is a game of chance in any case.

Poker and casinos are two completely different industries, the only thing they have in common is that some live casinos have poker tables.In a casino, only the owner of the establishment will win, in poker – the one who devotes more time to the game and its nuances, the one who has experience and skills.You must understand that if your main goal that you want to achieve in the game is to make a profit, then in this case you should always choose poker. The casino should be considered only as a way to get some new emotions and impressions, it is not about profit at all.

yes, online poker is a lot like a casino game probably because it is a casino game. We have no control of the cards that will appear next. In fact, the cards appear on a screen and people risk money on each spin, just like a casino game.

Do you have any knowledge of the game? Where do you feel more comfortable putting your money vs the players or vs the house. Hint* the house ALWAYS wins. slots pay back 90-96ish % over time you lose -EV poker is not easy but you can profit by playing with a solid understanding. You can get lucky and win against better players but you won’t win against better opponents enough to make a profit in the long run. You have to constantly learn and constantly improve your game to stay in the green. IMO if you aren’t going to put in the work you should just go with the slots.

Same industry “Entertainment” as in its meant for people to have fun doing. It’s a very small % that ever gets good enough to consistently make a profit. 100’s of thousands of hands played millions even and as much strategy as you can absorb and practice. That is why I am quitting… right as soon as I die. ❤️

There is no comparison whatsoever, poker is a game of skill and casinos are games of chance.

Hi :)
For some players, yes, for others, no. Everything is individual and depends primarily on the personal attitude to the game. For me, poker is more of a sport than a game of chance, so in my opinion, poker is not very similar to slots or other casino games, even blackjack. The reason is my attitude to this game.

I agree, I think it depends on the player. Poker has many more opportunities for players to influence their short and longer term outcomes, if they decide to play the game this way and put the effort in.

In casino games you are playing against the house, in poker you are playing against other players.

The house has the edge in casino games, but in poker the best players have the edge.

Yes and no, both have algorithms and are based on luck, but the casino returns based on what is played on that machine, poker returns prizes randomly based on the gameplay (often these algorithms are so unrealistic that they help players who don't know)

Hello, welcome to the Cardschat forum:)
We can gamble with anything, not just poker or casino games. Unfortunately, we can even use both sides of a coin to gamble, but we have to be sure that gambling in poker with “good” players will have sad results and more losses if we don’t care.
Poker is not like other games of chance, sometimes we have to close our eyes to luck and fold a pair of aces.

Poker and online casino are two different games, in poker you can train yourself as a professional player because it not only depends on luck but also on your experience and study of the game.

In casino games you play vs the house where the house always has an edge,

In poker you compete against other humans where it's possible to gain a post rake edge for yourself with hard work and dedication.

No they aren't the same. With casino games you play against the house (casino), while in poker you play against the other people at the table.

As mentioned above it is a game of skill which allows the player to affect the outcome of the game. That however doesn't differentiate poker from casino games because with a game like blackjack the player can change the outcome by how he or she plays their hand, even though they are playing against the house.

A game of chance like craps doesn't allow the player to affect the outcome. That is the difference between a game of chance and a game of skill.

A casino is a gambling establishment where gambling games with declared monetary or other property winnings are conducted using roulette, card and dice tables, slot machines, and other gambling equipment.
Poker is one of the types of casino games. I don't understand how it can be similar to a gambling establishment or how it can be different :unsure:

Online poker is similar to online casinos, where the main trump card is luck, the other components are secondary and play a small role.

Yes, if playing both of those happends on line. Both are build up by scripts and codes. They are online games. :)

You can reduce luck in poker by from your own actions, sometimes, if you are lucky.
