I think Slots is a game of chance and Poker is a game of skills. Do you agree?

Your list is not complete dice is also a very popular game in casinos and it's considered a game of chance both slots and dice outcomes are based on chance and there's nothing you can do on your own to manipulate or control the outcome, on the other hand, poker is a game of skill it depends on how good you read your opponent's reaction, that is why there are's such a thing as poker face because poker players trained themselves to be without a reaction when playing.
Sports betting is also considered a game of chance because you can get a win by analyzing the team and the individual's performance against their opponents, if you're a follower of the sport you'll have an insight into who's the better team or individual.
You would be finding out for yourself once you do able to experience out these type of games.You would eventually be able to notice on what are the games which do needs strategy and which one is really just

depending or basing up on luck because it is really just that part of the code and its execution.Things which would really be needing up that strategy is into those games which does require your own
skills and knowledge about on certain games.

Its up to yours whether you would be dealing with luck based or skill based ones.You would be able to find for yourself which one suits into your interest.

Among the choices given slots are the most ideal in terms of having a chance to win not all the time it's gives a huge win because all you need is to keep playing and clucking the role until you hit a huge multiplier that cope up all of your losses even though there's a jump head start still there's no assurance that you will take a good take run.

Other in the choices is reliable with the players decision to take the current state and make a risk of the bet or make fold and back out its their option.

Generally, there ain't no skill in virtua or simulation games. That's the way I see it at least, it's always about the chances you took out of luck and the once you didn't take. It either ends badly or good for you but most times, the house winsa nd as such, you have to play for the fun and not really because of the money so, you better enjoy it. Gambling is more fun that way and when its otherwise, you might just be messing yourself up as there is no such thing as being too professional or skilled about it and this applies more to the casino games. Rest assured, most of the casinos do there bit to be fair and you would need luck on your side too.

If the game is determined by random variables then its a game of chance these are games in which you don't have to set up a strategy or a pattern because these will be useless,
If the game can be won by determining who is a stronger team or fighter against their opponents and you can summarize why the other team is better than the one then this is a game of skill, its easy to trace for casino players what are games of chance and games of skill, anything that requires a roll or pure bet is game of chance and anything where to two teams are competing are categorized as sports betting and you need the skill to determine a winner.

this is why based from OP's question, it has long been known that poker is a game of skill. whereas, most casino classics are games of chance.
so if you want better chance of winning, maybe, start learning how a poker works but it would be years and years of experience to learn very good tactics. and in terms of those luck-based games, don't think that there's strategy that will give you tons of money because those known strategies will only work for certain period of time. if you don't know when to stop, all your winnings will just go back to the house.

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅
....to my own relative discreetion, every games needs them both.
Whatchu mean chance? Luck? If yes, then every game requires some piece of luck.
Poker needs alot of skills to start with, so you need to learn first.... although jack Does too but that's not even a problem compared to how coordinated you could make your odds, to be able to get a win.
I think everything about gambling isn't how much you know, but how lucky you are .... Cus if it's about the knowledge, alot would be winning and the relentless will continue on a daily pursuit.

Blackjack is a kind of skill and it also requires luck because without a good luck it is difficult to win in Blackjack but in this case if you have a good understanding of the cards you can increase the chances of winning by using various tricks. Although gambling is also based on luck, winning at poker requires skill. And to win at pokar you must have skill and if you have this skill you can earn a lot of money from gambling

That is indeed correct because slots machine are system generated and you can't make any decision on that aside from hitting the bet button while in porker and blackjack, you have to analyze your cards and your opponent or else you will be lose, though there still a chance for luck in poker but I think its not a pure luck based game. Gambling can be very risky, even if you play the game using your own skills there's still a higher chance to lose money, there's no guarantee in gambling after all.

All 4 games depends on both luck and chance; playing with others or the house depends on the condition of the game.  The skilled person may find himself in the midst of proficient players. Even, the slot game depends on the machine, a skilled person could get around some bucks in return and also fail if the machine is programmed at a lesser payout. As we keep playing a particular game, our skills improve on that game. Yet it depends on working closely with skilled gamblers to understand the game. They're people who don't make grave mistakes on slot and such people could also quit poker for slot games. Since they all fall in the category of gambling its linked to both terminologies.

Did you see this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/top-3-reasons-why-cytpocurrency-gambling-is-more-addictive-than-fiat-gambling-5445679 and it leaves you more questions so you research the entire web to look for further answers? If not, you can still check that out as the topic is also about "why crypto gambling is addictive".

Moving on, to answer your own question, I think the game of skill are blackjack, baccarat and poker but poker should be the purest one since it involves more cards and strategies. Blackjack would be the second and baccarat is last. Slot is the only game of chance there because the game is too basic. All you need to do is to push that spin button. You can not invent a strategy with it and if ever some insist, I still don't think that it will work.

I've never played poker before, so in all honestly, I can't tell if it's a game of chance or skill, but what I do know is that most games that has to do with cards are mostly games of skill, where the gambler's knowledge and skill will be the determinant to whether he or she wins or loses the game..
This is what I think.
It's actually a game of both but to weigh these two, it all ends up with a game of skill. Because if even you're not lucky with your cards and if you're skilled in bluffing, that means that even having weak cards, you can still turn the situation and win against those high cards if they're scared of you bluffing them.
Wow, haha, 😂, from this little/simple, but yet vital information, I think poker must be an really interesting game to play, somebody shared a link with me yesterday, a YouTube video actually, through which I could learn how to poker, I will make out time to thoroughly watch that video..
I can't wait to try my hands on some poker games, I just hope the online version be as fun as it is to play it in the physical.
Good luck with that mate, you can do it. It's a fun game but it's also a game that you need to be serious about because you really have to use your brain on it.
If those supplemental videos that you're watching aren't enough, you can download some poker games on the app/play store for you to understand more about the game and try it unlimited since it's a game that you'll use some free money through those apps and be against with AI. There's no need to think about how much you're gonna lose unless you initially step into an actual poker table.

Slots is completely a game of luck. You can do nothing to change outcome of a game with it. Poker is very complicated. Its also mainly game of luck because cards you receive is all about your luck. Its random. But if you can observe the game, read your opponents' mind through, manipulate them with your surprising moves etc. you can definitely change outcome. Skill and intelligence parts of poker is so influential its important aspect of game. That's why people may prefer to watch poker but noone would watch someone playing slots.

We all know that slot games rely more on luck. which means, the probability of winning that we have is smaller than the ratio of defeats. but uniquely, slot games offer fantastic prizes that can even be multiplied, if luck is on our side maybe we can get the jackpot.

As for poker, besides being quite complicated, this game also requires a lot of patience. that's why I say, because every round we won't always get a good card. if we play physical poker, reading opponent's mind, opponent manipulation, bluffing, is very useful and effective. but playing online poker, these things don't really matter. but still, it always requires skill, reading the opponent's style of play and so on. the rest, is a factor of luck.

By the way, actually you can try playing Baccarat, I think this game is more tense than playing blackjack. also, has a different sensation from other types of games. not infrequently, many gamblers use the martingale technique when playing this game. although high risk, but quite fun.

I was recently browsing the internet on a topic as to why cryptocurrency gambling games are so addictive. This topic is not only about online crypto gambling please do remember this before replying.

While going through multiple websites for my topic I found out that the online gambling industry has been growing rapidly. The growth has been significant as in 2021 the global online gambling industry size was recorded at $61.5 Billion, whereas it went up to $79.8 Billion in 2022. The rise as per my understanding is significant.

While going through different websites I stumbled upon many websites which were about the top most played games in online casinos in 2021-2022. I have listed down the top 4 most played games below but my question is which one of these do you consider to be a game of skill or a game of chance?

  • Slots
  • Balckjack
  • Baccarat

Slots is purely a game of chance, while Blackjack is a combination same with Poker, baccarat is also pure game of chance.  I say blackjack and Poker is a combination of game of chance and skill because when a card is distributed to the player, it triggers the chance of getting a good deck, then along the process, the player then make use of their skills like card counting (blackjack) and bluffing on poker to win the game.  Also strategy is greatly applicable for blackjack and poker due to some of its mechanics depends on the skill, while strategy on slots and baccarat is somehow futile because of the random results of the roll.

I've tried playing all these games and I could say that skills might help but winning these games is always based on a person's luck. It all depends on our luck because if skills could always make us win, lots of skilled gamblers shouldn't be experiencing losses. Our luck still plays a big role in our game play and of course the proper condition of our focus and mindset.

In my view, poker can be said to be a gambling game that requires skills because, it is a combination of memory sharpness, strategy to win over its opponents. As for the game of chance, I think it includes Slot games, Roulette, and baccarat. I can say that it's just luck, even if you don't use strategy, it's fine. Because winning is based on a gambler's luck in my opinion.

Poker is a skillful game,you need to understand the game and memorize the card,with this whatever strategy that you want to use can work for you but take note good cards can give you a win if your opponent picks the bad cards.
Slot is basically on luck because it doesn't need any need for you to win since the game is beyond our knowledge to win.

Well, i would say that all games are games of luck when it comes to gambling.
Poker is a game of chance that required skill to play. Just like football, football is a game of luck but it requires skill to play it well.
Slot is also a game of luck that needs your skill also.
Blackjack game is a game of skill with little or no luck involved in it.

Since we are talking only about online gambling then the only game that is a game of skill in which it is possible to produce profits is poker, and while blackjack can be considered a game of skill too as you can increase your chances to win with the right strategy, this is not enough to make you a profitable gambler when you are doing so online.

However if you were talking about offline gambling as well then blackjack will also become a game of skill capable of producing profits, as there are a few strategies you can use to become profitable, even if those strategies are frowned upon by casinos.

Totally agree! I think poker is the only game there that is a game of skill but all for them links to the game of chances. You learn to handle your funds which you can also apply in real life.

Like slot games, we can use a pattern strategy when buying spins so that we can get a free scatter on normal spins and the chances of the jackpot coming out can be bigger.

Do not spread false information, there is no guarantee of bigger winning chance when you use buy bonus feature in slots game. Maybe you have tried it several times and you get good result, but have you ever experienced a long losing streak from buy bonus feature? If you ask those slot gambler who like to use buy bonus feature most of the time, you will know that buy bonus is not a guarantee of a better result than normal spins. Slots is completely game of luck, there is no pattern strategy to give you better winning chance.

I think it is not meant to spread false info, but yeah it gives a wrong impression. Maybe you have a better luck of getting jackpot but it doesn't always work that way. Also, just be careful because if you hold to much into that belief, you might get addicted into betting on it always.
