Poker Is A Game Of Skill

Reply Subscribe
A judge in the state of Colorado has become the latest in the past few weeks to rule the game of poker one of skill, not luck. Last week, a Pennsylvania judge ruled that poker was a game of skill, and in Kentucky, an Appeals Court took away Governor Steve Beshear's self proclaimed right to seize online gambling domain names.

Texas Hold'em is a game of skill and therefore not unlawful gambling.

Poker is a game based on math calculations, timing and knowledge of opponents and their actions.

In a study released on Friday, it was revealed that Texas Hold'em, statistically at least, is a game of skill. The research in question investigated 103 million hands and found that three-quarters of them did not go to showdown. In essence, they were won due to betting by players.

The study was performed by Cigital using 103 million hands on PokerStars, the world's most popular online poker site.

PokerStars worked in conjunction with Cigital on the study.
