luck does help man.!! it counts a lot. skill is important. but you have to wait for the right moment to push your money in. wait it out till you have enough luck stashed up. dont "hope to get lucky on the turn/river... that will be just your bad karma if you don't hit!

I want to believe luck is just 25% (in the long run I'm convinced it is), but unfortunately online poker has showed me so far that there's definitely a 50% luck factor involved... So now, when I'm about to play online on a big tourney, I ask myself the same question over and over again: "DO YOU FEEL LUCKY, P U N K?..."
Yes, for you it's 0 %. We're not all a pokergenius like you, so we do need a little bit more luck than 0 %.

Tourneys and esp. big (guaranteed) tourneys you def. need (some) luck, but you can go a long way (everytime) with just skill.
Poker is a game of knowledge also have to be a big liar hahaha but always as lucky in any game is going to effect certain times.
Yes!! Even with soccermatches you need some luck to win, even when you are (way) better than your opponent, you need some luck, it's 11 men against 11 men and with poker it's 2 cards against 2 cards.
------------ and never forget: everybody plays to win! Even when they're not, think that they are.

Hello,
you have really understood very well my point of view and what I wanted to go.
No matter what game is always going to influence the fate one might say that even in chess influences the fate and this is a game full of logic because if your opponent makes a mistake you ran with luck!

Yep and sometimes your opponent make mistake (and you make the best play) and they still win. BUT they can never win everything with only mistakes, that's why we know the best players' names and faces.
