The luck factor never 'disappears' with time - it sure is less.
The luck factor say in chess is miniscule and dependent on player's health, fatigue, nervousness etc. So too in other games .


This cop out that over x amount of years its all skill - doesn't work.
Since no way can you define something as a 'game' over a long period (more than a year) and since games must be finite - there is a substantial luck factor.

The WSOP ME clearly shows that.
