CowsOnTilt Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Re: Poker skill or luck ? There is a lot of skill in playing poker however online' date=' because the donkeys are behind a computer screen and no one can see them and embarrass them with their donk play they play like donks and do get lucky. The problem is there is so many of them kind of players online that you may encounter 10 of these in a tournament and out of those ten at least 2 or 3 get lucky and take a big chunk from your stack[/quote'] There is so much wrong with this, first of all why do you want to embarrass donks? we need donks to continue playing not to scare them off. second, why are you complaining that there are so many donks? would you rather play against comeptent pros and be constantly outplayed or get it in against a donk and be the one whos gets it in best the vast majority of the time?

courtneylagman Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Re: Poker skill or luck ? Poker is combination of luck and skill. I am a online poker player and using many software like Leak Buster HUDs to support me for winning. If anyone can apply his tricks on proper time he can be won mostly.

fatfreddy Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Re: Poker skill or luck ? the skill is in navigating the field and knowing when to press your luck by your observations of your opponenets which is much easier live, but can be helped with the software..... there are times to push and times to fold your 16 out hand depending on the dynamics of the table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple_Pie Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 To me, Poker means both of them, in a equal manner. It's like 50/50. But it depends, usually they always have an advantage, "house advantage" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
