Is there any real skill at all to poker?

SBR Poker is pure luck

Way less swings in poker than sports betting. When I did not have much money played a ton of poker and made good money with a super low bankroll, in sports that is much harder

My story is the reverse. I was making at poker, but found I was far better at sports betting.

There's skill involved, but it seems like it always comes down to a race like A-K vs. pocket tens or something similar.

This is basically what you see over and over and over again at the WSOP, somebody goin all in with a coinflip and celebrating like they hit a homerun when they win....I mean sure they got lucky and dodged or hit and won alot of money coinflipping but is that really a skill?

More people make a living sports betting than poker playing <--- winning$ from actually playing

Hell , poker players you see on TV dont make their living playing poker.

I am probably better at sports, but I am saying to build a low bankroll it is much easier to play low stakes poker than to bet 50-100 a bet and win a bunch of units, and least for me. But I think should be the same for most because poker gets much harder as the stakes go up where sports betting gets a little harder.

I disagree with you Frank.

I would imagine there are many more people who are ruined by sports betting than by poker.
