And that is more of acting, not skill. But if you get the cards then it becomes and act again. So actually there is my answer. It is a game of chance that is played with skill.

A skilled player will lose less in bad situations and win more in good ones. The primary way skill benefits a player is in the hands they choose to discard: playing less danger hands means less chance of finding yourself outkicked, overpaired etc.If you are routinely playing hands like QJ or KT, you definitely need more of this kind of advice, as your hand selection is opening you up to many more situations where chance will have a nasty effect on your outcome. http://www.church-of-texas-holdem.com/free-texas-holdem-ebook.htmlskill--- like bridge is you have to know what cards are out math like smarts.. you can see what cards are out and on the table..

So there cannot be a definitive answer to your question with the stated premises. 20% of players are winning 80% of the money. So for those 20% of players poker is very much a game of skill. The same hold true in poker. The seasoned poker player recognizes all situations where the odds favor them and while taking into account a great number of other factors choose hot to most equitably play their hand. In retail 20% of customers typically make up for 80% of a particular store's revenue. They are in essence comparable to a casino. All elements of life incorporate a certain level of chance; even chess. In the short term (during any particular hand) there is certainly chance/luck/random probability involved, in the long run that particular poker player is not gambling. However, for the average recreational poker player it's a game of chance. The typical 80/20 rule from business can be applied to answer this question. While throughout the course of a visit or two gamblers might beat the house; in the long run the house will ALWAYS win because they have the probabilistic edge in every game. Rather, they are investing.

By far it is a game of skill.
Sure the cards dealt and the ones you get are the luck of the draw, but that's the only luck involved in the game.
What YOU do with the cards dealt is skill.
Knowing when to bet, when to fold, how much to raise, knowing how to mask your emotions from your opponent, and much more take skill that is not learned overnight.
A game of chance to me would be ANY state lottery, roulette, slot machines, and anything where you just randomly put your money down and HOPE that you win.
With poker YOU control your destiny...not a machine.

Well it's about 50/50.
The entire game is really based on luck of the draw, but by knowing the strength of hands and the odds of achieving a hand based on your cards you can give yourself an advantage over other players - which takes skill.
If it was a game completely based on chance then, for example, if a person who has never played poker ever played 10 games against a person who is a professional poker player then each would, theoretically, win 5 games...I can tell you that if the game was actually played between these two types of players then the professional would probably win 9 outta 10 times.
So some kinds of skillful advantage does exhist...
