By now, you have probably found out that our editorial team’s opinion is that poker is a game of skill. We have several strong arguments to put forward in defense of this thesis, and they all have to do with trends observed over the past 20 or so years of playing and observing the game.
We have spoken with several professional players, including Jonathan Little and Maria Ho, who have helped us understand a little more about the institution of poker as a sport and skill rather than the luck of the draw, which is admittedly a part of the gameplay.
