70% skill 30% luck. Luck is always apart of the game, but more skilled players usually only lose when they get unlucky.

Bad beats, variance, and how you handle the swings in poker also plays a part to how well you do long term.

You will definitely need more skills than luck before you can be successful in playing poker. I can admit that luck might play a role in your winning but you cannot depend on luck 100% to succeed.

Poker is 100% luck. Just ship it in when you feel like it. You'll probably win. Not sure there is any math of any kind involved.
