Thanks. I knew Stu, but lost track of him in the late 70's. I've heard a lot of stories from the 80's - but only saw him once at a game in Reno. It just seemed to me he would be a good example when comparing luck to skill -- maybe some of you can name players that have better (or better documented) track records.

I don't believe this question is answerable.
At a table of players of equal ability (ie. all playing identically) the skill factor is 0% and the luck factor is 100%, and it makes no difference if they are World Champions or novices. Introduce 1 stronger or weaker player to the table and that completely changes. |

Depends on the blinds, starting chips, time bewteen the blinds and so on. The shorter the game, luck increases.
Outside of that, I find most people who lose alot claim its all luck. And, when and someone tells me it was all luck, I thank them very much. It tells me they don't know how to play |

wow, that was EXACTLY what i was going to say...
i think that luck and skill aren't mutually exclusive, therefore, poker is both. when you get the luck, you have to use your skill to get the most money. and when you get bad luck, ou have to use your skill to lose the least money. |

There is no way to answer this question with anything but an opinion, it's not a quantifiable thing.
