Posted by dragosh999: you need more then that.you need a lot of luck and a lot of donks.in this game 50% its luck and 20% intuition,the rest its ability and experience
I belive 50 % is luck, 50 % is pshycology, 8 % is table selection, 33 % is experience, 15 % is missclicking in the right spots, and 50 % is math (i.e. knowing how % works).

Which comes to a grand total of 14% out of a hundred, if I calculate it correctly. Depending on the odds, of course....
Unless I use a calculator, in which case it's 17 over 2.

Tricky stuff, but I think we got it right.
Which gives you a 33 % chance (14+17+2) to win pre flop if you play the optimal game, is that right?
