I have to disagree. For two hours, 2000 hands of video poker?, luck has to be over 99%. At 200 hours, 200,000 hands?, 20% luck is very low, that would be a video poker game with an unusually low N0. At N0 luck is 50%. Typical video poker has N0's around a million hands. FPDW+0.25% is 50% luck at about 260,000 hands. Of course this is taking "luck" to be the standard deviation, a common definition for an ill defined term.
[For those that don't know, N0=variance/edge^2 hands]
