Cmon folks, now really. "Can't we all just git along".

No really, luck does come into play quite a bit more than some would think. How much? I guess Im really not sure. But I am sure that skilled proffesional players have 2 things working for them that we do not, at least in my case. The first being "MONEY". Usually lots of it. Which in turn leads to more tourneys, which in turn leads to more experience, which in turn leads me to the second thing they have that we do not, "EXPERIENCE". So, is this the equation I see? "MONEY" + "EXPERIENCE" = PROFESSIONAL POKER PLAYER?
Could be. Sure sounds like if you combine "MONEY", "EXPERIENCE", and and a couple of sets of 3's on the river you just might have a professional poker player! ??????
