I could not disagree more
Poker like all card games amounts to gambling when all parties know the strategy. If all know the probabilities then it comes down to the flop.
Anybody that has played poker knows this. You can play the right way and still lose big. In fact the biggest losses are with the best strategy and the best hands. The old saying goes that the biggest loser in poker is not the person with the worst hand but the second best hand.
Chess it totally different.

Yes Chess is highly skill.

Poker is not skill cause if ya don't get the good cards your a cooked goose in the end/yes you can bluff your position but your not going to win the big championship with out getting the cards too
