hand in a no-limit hold'em tournament game is dependent on whether U are running lucky or not for that given hand.
Does anyone agree with this statement? SittingBull |

Of course it's dependent on that...assuming "luck" = variance.

uh...
what? explain more? If you're saying tournaments are all luck, then you're wrong. If you're saying that you have to be lucky to win a preflop all in race...then sure... |

I can tell you that if I was in a coinflip situation against Tiffany Williamson this main event or Moneymaker two years back, I would definitely not be expecting to win 50% of the time.

no it's pure nonsense but many people play like they believe it.

I know that when I'm running hot, I'm more likely to call in a coinflip situation or after flopping four flush. Obviously "running good" is about 1000th on the list of things I consider when making a preflop all-in or the like, but every now and again you're on a roll and want to keep the momentum going.

no it's pure nonsense but many people play like they believe it. [/ QUOTE ] So you claim that there is no element of luck involved in poker? So essentially, if I'm better than you...I will win every single hand. The only way you can win is if you're better than your opponent. If you have A-A and get all in preflop against 2-3 and lose, you're saying that variance (a.k.a. "luck") didn't come into play? |
