i've heard it said that in the short run, poker is 90% luck and 10% skill...and in the long run, its 10% luck and 90% skill...or something

this would make it much better in the short run, and wouldn't change the long run

this sounds fine, in theory...but what about when all the fish stop making money in the short run, stop having stories to share with their friends, and when phil ivey gets 90% of the pot 10 handed at the 2003 WSOP and Moneymaker doesn't go on to win that tourney

without suckouts and extreme variance...there would be no fish, remember that, embrace it
