Re: How much of Poker is luck?
 

Back in the day, and I stress that this was before online poker, we did a study on this. The result of that study determined that poker was 27% luck and the rest was skill.

But with the onset of online poker and the coming of age of the donkey in 2005, I would assume that number is slightly higher today.

The institute for psychology in gambling did a study in 1983 and determined that success in poker is based on the following weightings:

31%: the hands you are dealt

12%: your aggression at the table

8%: your highest level of education

17%: the environment you were raised in

6%: your exercise regimen

14%: your average daily intake of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose

7%: geographic distance to closest server hub

12%: symmetry of facial features

41%: luck

Of course not. Because if it were my stupid joke might actually have a chance of being funny.
