I don't think it's a game of pure luck. I'd say 70% skill, 30% luck. Sometimes you can play perfect, but if you don't get lucky at the right times there goes your tournament.
It takes a lot of discipline to have success in poker for the long term.

You need a bit of luck as well to win. It is not always easy to rely only on skill when your rivals are also good with their skills. So, you will definitely need some luck to achieve success in the poker game as well.
