Is poker more about skill or luck?

[Letterk]

I don’t know

Anyone who says its just one thing has never grinded low stakes for a few months straight. Luck gets you paid that one night but skill is what keeps you from punting it all back before sunrise.

Do you find your own reads get sharper after a long session or do they start to blur?

[trasynie]

yeah if you play enough hands the donkeys always give it back, just gotta survive the bad beats without tilting lol ?

def a mix but skill tips the scale long term, the short bursts of luck just mess with your head. i lost a big pot this morning cause i forgot to check if the guy was actually tilting or just acting, small mistake cost me a stack

[mikastone]

yeah for sure a mix but the real separator is how many hands you play not how many you win

[gUnofu5]

I'd say skill edges it out long term but luck feels way more visible when you're on a bad run, you know? Winning a single hand is pure luck but grinding a profit over months is all discipline and reading people.
