Yeah, it is luck. But i always quit when i'm ahead which i think is also one of the reasons i'm up. Sometimes i'll go to the casino and win go up about 75% in as little as 10 minutes. I'm out the door ASAP. So yeah, i get lucky, but i take advantage of that luck and don't piss it away. Learning strategy will probably help me win more, but honestly, i don't sit at a table for very long and i don't play very serious amounts of money. It's just for fun.
