When you play, rummy you will have to build the right combinations, however, when you are playing poker you will have to focus more on betting decisions and reading players. You need a lot of patience to play both of these games. Have you played both of these games, based on your personal experience, which game do you find harder to master?
 
I like rummy as well as poker. Rummy is about forming sets and sequences with cards, while poker is more about betting, probability, and reading opponents, making poker more psychological and rummy more pattern-focused.
 
Poker feels more psychological to me because you’re constantly dealing with betting pressure, bluffing, and reading opponents. Rummy feels more focused on building combinations and tracking discarded cards. You need skills ro playbthese games, but poker usually feels more aggressive and people-oriented, while rummy feels calmer and more pattern-based m
 
Poker is harder to master for one simple reason and that is because cards follow rules, people don't. In rummy you're mostly solving a puzzle. In poker you're solving a puzzle while somebody is actively trying to trick you. That's a different level of stress.
