This is a common social phenomenon called social categorization. It is very much an 'us vs them' mentality. Its also define by sets of in-groups and out-groups. In this case, your in-group is your side of the table. Naturally your side will describe the other as the lucky side, where your side is all skill or something like this. That is called the ultimate attribution error, also very common in 'us vs them' situations. Your side of the table will feel a self serving bias to discount the talents and skills of the other side. In short, the sociology graduate in me says this is a standard social situation. The poker player in me says, standard poker table situation, enjoy. Also, be sure and take advantage of your kind neighbors, they wont suspect it.
