I often hear people saying that poker is a game of chance. For me, this is kind of offensive. Poker is a game of skill with the element of luck(chance).
I used to try to explain that, but it's useless. They keep believing that poker is all about luck (probably inspired from movies) . When I say "when we go outside, the chances of seeing a real dinosaur are 50/50: we'll see it or we won't see it", they reply "don't be ridiculous". They can't even understand sarcasm (facepalm).
Now I'm not trying to explain it anymore, I just agree with being the "lucky guy" and ignore them. But it's still offending my feelings towards poker. They don't understand the concept of the game, and I can't blame them.
I'm just being cool and ignore them.
How are you dealing with these kind of people? (in real life and on internet)
