After what now appears to be a lengthy argumentation in favor of poker as a game of skill, we are fairly confident to say that the game is indeed one that relies heavily on a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Was that not the case, you would not be able to teach complete novices into defeating the majority of players.

A game of chance is, by definition, very unpredictable, with outcomes constantly catching players by surprise. While you cannot always expect the luck of the draw to favor you, you can always learn what cards give you a good to strong chance to win and act on those.
