Haven't posted in ages...but a workmate the other day asked me isn't it all just luck,n depends in the cards ur dealt...
I stammered n spluttered ,about pot odds,trends,n tells,gaining info...etc..to a blank stare.....
So if u were asked a similar,cliched question about poker how would you explain it accurately,and shortly?

It's a combination of luck and skill, provided you have some skill.

"Yes you're right" is the best response.
Because if you reply with a decent sensible answer they just say
"Yes, but what about Flushy"
And you've just lost the entire discussion...it's not worth it.

It's only luck when I lose, it's a skill game when I win.

Dabbered up to the hilt. What does me is how some people are just consistently lucky. Play cash at least once a week in local snooker club and two guys week in week out hit flush's str8's no probs. Agree when i win its a very skillful game
