My religion forbids gambling or games of chance.

My religion forbids games of chance (where there is no skill involved) to be played for money as do nmost conservative faiths.

I would like to know if Limit poker is a game of skill or chance. I really want to play but this is the only issue that is stopping me from doing so.

Please do not say obvious things like, if you play 1 hand, then yes chance dominates the skill factor and if you play 10000, vice versa.

Could someone informed in this area comment please. It would really help me out and decide once and for all to play or not.

Does skill truly determine the FINAL outcome of this game?

Thanks.
