Luck



Posted Sat Dec 16, 2006 11:44 am GMT by LeafsFan1122
I do not beleive in luck. Luck is a myth and/or theory that's tied in with probability.

However, I'm usually not very good at expressing this thought when people ask me about it in real life.

Can anyone who has remotely the same opinion as me please help me to articulate my thoughts?

I think it's important to define luck first before you can say it exists or doesn't. Webster had an interesting defintion that I tend to agree with in regards to poker.

Luck- the events or circumstances that operate for or against an individual.

if it weren't for luck, I'd win most of these things.

Phil Hellmuth: "there weren't luck involved, I guess I'd win every one." (After losing in WSOP 2004)
