Default Re: Poll: How lucky or unlucky have you been?

[ QUOTE ]
I think poker players as a group will tend to under-estimate their luck.

I believe the opposite to be true. I believe they will tend to over quantify the amount of "bad luck" they have had. This is due to the fact that the bad beats are always easier to remember than the time they got lucky to win a hand. In addition, I would say that a good portion of 2+2ers don't often let themselves in to situations where they need to get "lucky" to win a hand. They play solid poker and often don't play against the odds.
