The 39th World Series of Poker got going in earnest Friday, and perhaps the most common question pondered about the game is this:
Luck or skill, which is it? The obvious answer, of course, is:
Both.

Skill is especially evident in smaller fields, especially at big-time tournaments. At the World Series of Poker at the Rio casino in Las Vegas, a “small” field is anything less than 400 players.
