Hey....I just saw this article on a danish poker site, thought it was interesting so I would share it with you. Personally I think it's pretty obvious that poker is a skill game with a luck factor. Like some pro said (cant remember who) in the end of the year it's allways the good players who have the money and not the lucky

wow that actually is very interesting actually... thanx for posting that but it really is a game of skill because they lucky players cant get lucky all the time and like you said (and like the ftp commercial says...) thats why the final table has so many familiar faces

lol yea it was a pretty complex formula if your seeing something like that for the first time but i took a course in high school a while back that was all about probabilty and chances of something happening and stuff.. it was a pretty hard course thinking back on it

Next Sunday check out Jordan Morgan in FTP 750K guarantee he is allmost allways in that tourney and in top 50 out 3800-4000 players it's so sick. He must be a pretty "lucky" dude

Never heard of Jordan Morgan. Just checked and hes pretty young. I don't really have a FTP account, well I did but I haven't logged in it for more than a year and no longer have the software on my computer. And that is pretty sick, whats the prize for 50th?

Then there is no reason for you to post here....a negative statement without explanation. If you dont wonna look stupid you could argument for your opinoin instead of just throwing a stupid statement.
