This information is very interesting, first we must know that in the end the cards will be distributed to everyone equally, luck is also shared, but the big difference will be noticed in the skill of the player, your success in the game depends on that. poker.

I wish or was only luck but it is not . Generally skill prevails on the long run , at least on live poker games . But online , this rng sucks ,it's more the skill to manipulate rng , not the skill to play cards , opponents and odds . What about 100% luck , that would be the best . The manipulation of rng makes you wanna stop playing , I have read many others complaining about the same thing . RNG is imperfect , actually cr** ((((

Well in the freerolls , the nano stakes , skilleans nothing , offers no protection from crazy loose players who are all in all the time or call ATC or play bingo with the rng and the software . Also at theicro stakes you see this , you witness this behavior a lot . That's a annoying fact . Now at higher stakes or at live poker , of course skill means mote and can help you prevail on the long run . But online rng rullls, not skill or luck .

This will always be a case of much debate, for me in particular, as in every game, there will always be the luck factor, but you can minimize that with study, work and perseverance, in the long term this usually almost disappears.

I was playing one hour , then I got an exit hand ,y AK vs AA . Lol . This luck follows me all the way the last years . No reason to deposit more or gamble more or play higher stakes with this luck . QQ vs AQ , AQ wins , my KK vs AK , AK wins , my 4 Aces lose to straight flush . Crazy hands , especially on ACR . With this luck skill cannot help , studying the game cannot help , at least online

I recently listened to a professional poker player, and he said that in the end the game of poker becomes a game of skill, where the competition is that, each player faces off and their skills in the game are measured, luck is distributed and skill no.
