Everything is "part skill, part luck". Owning a restaurant, baseball, walking across the street, everything.
The fact is that poker is a skill game with a very large amount of variance. I'd imagine that you are a recreational poker player who is bad at it and therefore you don't really play that much and you do poorly. Maybe you think how much you play is a lot, but I doubt that it actually is.
And there are lots of courts in the U.S (I was talking about U.S. courts by the way so I guess you should go back and re-read since you somehow thought I was talking about courts somewhere else.) None of them (I mean U.S. courts) have made definitive rulings on online poker sites offering games to U.S. citizens. (Washington State is the exception where it is pretty well agreed on that it is illegal.) And even if that ruling were made at some point it would pretty clearly violate WTO rulings (not that the U.S. isn't already in violation of these WTO rulings already anyway).
P.S.
There's no "e" in Kool-Aid.
