I hear what you're saying Craig, but it isn't correct when referring to poker. A lot of poker is getting players to call with the worst hand and knowing how to maximize your winnings with the best hand. For example, let's say that you have top set, and your opponent has top pair, and all the money goes in. It doesn't matter how lucky or unlucky you are, you're going to win the hand. The pros are experts at figuring out weakness and what the other player has, they can almost "see" what their opponents have. They put their money in with the best hand and fold with the worst hand. So with this in mind, luck really doesn't matter too much in regarding how good a poker player is.
