Default Re: \"Poker is a game of chance\"

poker is more like 75% skill and 25% luck. if someone has 0 skill it would mean they go allin preflop every hand. with someone doing that, you would have give or take a 75% equity edge against the player assuming you are well skilled. its when players of equal skill start playing against each other than poker becomes a game of luck. a player of 0 skill level is a 75% underdog to a player of infinite skill level with a 25% luck factor whereas 2 players of equal skill level have a 0% advantage and are playing with a 100% luck element.
