Most of the lists that you made are true. Some gambling take skill and some just pure luck.
Depends on what you prefer to do as well.

of course skill works, otherwise anyone with a bit of poker knowledge would be on tv at the major poker tournaments and making millions. there is a skill ceiling to poker and there are a handful of players who consistently play at that level and are constantly appearing at these events. that should be more than a small indication of how much skill can matter.

Well, do not know why but I always feel that betting on roulette at a particular colour maybe say " red " is better than betting on 50% chance at any site , simply because I have never heard anyone loosing 20 roulette bets consecutively, while I have seen in dice.


try it with very small units and see yourself Smiley or google for the biggest streak on roulette black or red

yah cause roulette is a very slow play. so it will tends to be quite hard to play too many times to experience 20 consecutively loss but still it is very possible in the long run.

I think the only gamble that required skill is only Poker, because even with bad cards you still can win the game, using bluff technique

and the professional player also can use mimic or emotion bluffing tecnique

May be that will not happen in online poker. Mimic and some emotion that you let people to see that will just happened in direct play not online poker. And bluff too that is not 100% works because sometimes people will follow your bluff because they also have a good card so although skill your really need some luck when you play all gambling games

Yes, i think skills work on some gambling. Like poker and blackjack. These two games also need luck but the next step is your skills, like poker you need to smart to trick or bluff.

Yap, poker requires skill but not 100% skill. Players still need luck to win on poker, and I would say that bluff is not a skill. It is just a crazy thing to do on poker Smiley

i do agree with you if you're playing poker and blackjack you will need not only just luck but also need good skill to do it because if someone doesn't have it i'm quite doubt they can win if only rely of pure luck

I think with poker and sportbetting is is possible to make profit.
For win  it's needed more experience and parince.

I do agree to make some money from poker and sports betting we need skills and patience but only with these two we can't win in all bets. Even though these are skill based games but we still need some luck to win in these games also. So luck is very important factor in gambling winnings.
Yeah, in the end for both it comes down to luck. You could get a bad hand in poker or a team that you were 100% sure would win suddenly looses.
You could get very unlucky and lose it all.

I think more games that need luck are like multiplayer chess and such games which you cant win alone with luck at all.

Those games, online, require a lot of luck. You need to be very lucky to not end playing with a cheater Angry. If you are talking about face to face multiplayer chess, yeah, it is mainly about skill, but such games are not covered in this thread.

You forgot to include regular poker games, player vs player. Where skill is most. Or at least most from the list above.

In P2P Poker, site only collect rake and doesn't care at all which player will win.

My thoughts exactly. Poker and Player vs Player games take a huge amount of skill to get to a point where you can win consistently. Although, it can take some good cards/ Luck / Chance to win, But experience and skill give you the advantages in certain situations to know when to make a certain move or a big fold. When it comes to Skill based gambling, poker is the only way to go.

Yes

Poker is played against other humans, not the house.  Humans are exploitable.  Imagine playing against a human whose aggression is completely out of control.  I play against them every day.  Imagine playing against a human who is afraid to take any risk.  There are plenty of them.  And they identify themselves.  The house-created games are almost always not exploitable (unless the people who created them are incompetent).  Bitcoin internet poker has a unique combination of advantages that none of the others (including brick and mortar poker) have. The very low rake (or even zero rake at the lowest tables on SwCPoker) allows players to gain the needed skill at very low expense.  It is not unusual to play over 100 hands per hour.  In contrast, trying to learn how to play poker in a brick and mortar poker room can be expensive and time-consuming.  It is Bitcoins that allow internet poker to be provided at such low expense.

True, poker is one of the, if not, the most skill-oriented gambling game there is - at the moment.
Indeed. If you are skilled enough in poker, you can make thousands of money in the casino.

Why I can't see any dice inside the chance games? Isnt dice include in chance game? Btw blackjack have something to do with skill? I dont really think that blackjack is using any skills to play because you are compete with banker card so this is pure luck there you just need to stop increase your card when it is higher so I guess this is purely chances games

that is correct. Black Jack would be a skill game if the cards of the decks would be countable. most online casinos offering Black Jack shuffle after each game and that means there is no skill involved
