Do You Have the Skill to be a Great Poker Player

This is one of the questions that are asked the most in the poker sector and it does seem to get ignored by a lot of people. Folk cannot really answer this question because there is no true answer, it's a bit like asking how was the planet created and what came first the chicken or the egg. But let's have a brief look at unravelling some of the answers and seeing what the game is all about, is it just skill or luck?

Luck
Lets first have a look at why you have to be lucky to play poker, because you do not have judgement over how the cards are in fact dealt, you have to be lucky to be dealt the best possible hand, by getting a bad hand time after time you will never get any where in a game, unless of course you have the nerve and skill.

Skill
Skill is a very important and crucial factor in a game of poker, simply because you have to know when the time is right to pull out so that you do not end up loasing lots of money. You also have to know the precise right time that you should call a bluff.

In my honest opinion, i actually feel that the game is about both attributes. But over time I feel skill creeps in more and more. For example if a beginner poker player played ten games against a person of high calibre then they would probably end up winning 1 or 2 but the advanced player would come out a lot more higher.
