...poker also skill are still needed but is still all boils down to luck , and luck not something you can control...

Using a simple example, I'm going to show you that skills are very important in poker. You can have Pocket Aces and win without showdown, or you can bluff and hold weak cards and at the same time force other players to fold their cards. Thus, in the first case, no skills are required, but for the second case, they cannot be dispensed with. So in the first case, it's luck, but in the second case, you can't do without skills.
Good explanation, but the topic is about the long run. It is simply not possible to win with luck in the long run, only a highly skilled player with some support from luck could do so.

If someone becomes successful in sports betting over the long run, would you say that’s because of luck or skill?
