What do you think can be a consistent winning player on this game? is this game of skills or luck?
the longer you play more skills you get?
I think is a vice versa, sometimes you will win by your skills or strategy, sometimes you can win because you just lucky.
But it's more consistent if you will play for a longer time. In the long run, both are needed a bigger portion for your skills and strategy should be built up when you play poker. It's not mostly about luck because you will have to be a player that's full of strategies on your mind on how you will start bluffing and folding your cards. And with that said, luck will also play a role to it but you don't rely on it most of the time.
And yet I rely on luck most of the time. Say, when playing Texas Hold 'em I go all-in on the pre-flop with pocket Aces, what can I rely on but luck, knowing that there are so many scenarios that can be unfavorable to me? Another example is when several players make it to the river, and, say, I have 3 Aces in the end, but I can see that there are possibilities of Straights and Flushes. And when someone raises, what should I do, fold? I'm not folding with 3 Aces! But of course, I know I can lose, and the only thing that can help me in such a case is luck.
