Finally, people often ask me what percentage of poker is luck. Well, in the short run as much as 80% of poker can be luck but in the long run it is pretty much 100% skill. This is because the math plays itself out and luck no longer plays a significant role at all.

Poker is a game that involves elements of both skill and luck. The outcome of each hand is influenced by the random distribution of cards, which introduces an element of luck.
