Even if you are playing skill based games you need to be lucky in that also so you win the game.There are many chances where you can turn bad game into winning one also with your skills but still you need to be lucky.

Gambling is all based on luck no matter game it is. Poker and sports betting was heavily influenced by analytic skills yet gambler still needs luck in able to become successful on this field since we are playing with chances.

Suppose you have bad hand in poker but you have skills to bluff still you need to be lucky that others close or have even bad cards from you so there are many cases like this.

The idea of bluffing is to make your opponent believe that you have the highest combination in the game not to wish that the opponent have weak hands. No one will bite on your bluff if the opponent have weak hands because they will automatically fold. Real Bluff will enter once the three face up card already reveal because that’s the time you will need to establish your hands image.

We used to have poker competitions hosted all the time and in every tourney, there were at least 4-5 players who mastered their bluffing skills. You won't believe many times I had to fold just because the opponent was raising their stakes with such high confidence and even though I had the best hand, I just had no option but to fold.

With an ever-increasing number of players, you do not understand if someone is bluffing or not. I wouldn't call it a skill, bluffing is just bluffing. Anyways, we also had couple of legendary players who beat such guys too. Used to have lot of fun and won amazing chips.

The only games where you need pure luck is the slots. Wink
