Besides Bridge, what other games that require playing cards are there that are more based on skill than luck?

Snap.

Poker.

Poker is pure luck except when betting, but you can add betting elements to any event with imperfect knowledge to make it more "skill-based." There is nothing skill-based about poker inherently.

Did that fucking dumbass really spam this thread too? What the fuck is more of a traditional game than cards besides chess?

The number of hands mean that luck falls away and you're left with percentages. Math doesn't lose over time.

over the length of a career, sure
but pro players will tell you that a complete amateur can play 100 hands with them, and repeatedly felt them by just being a bit lucky
the luck factor is enormous

If you think this is true I encourage you to start gambling. You'll be sucking dicks behind a Denny's in hours.

i'm not lucky
but there's endless examples out there of amateur players beating pros for hours and hours straight
The Big Game by PokerStars was a tv show where that was basically the entire premise
it also had some of the most iconic moments in poker history, and you can find tons of clips on youtube

Like I said, betting adds skill to the game. But that's not because of anything about poker; you could add betting to Rummikub and it would be more skill-based than poker. Frankly, you could do the same with Guess Who.

Hand and Foot Canasta played in teams of 2. It turns what is a pretty draw based game into strategizing and team play
Rummy
There's a game called Oh Hell or Diminish that in any one round is very luck based but over the course of the game as a whole turns to reading the rest of the players and skill

The only strategy in Poker is the ante.
That’s it. You have no control over the strength of your hand or the opponent, all you have is the bet. You fold if you’re fucked, bet if you’re fine, and bluff if you’re a good liar.
The strategy is a matter of managing your money.
There is no strategy in the card play. You Have a good hand, or you don’t.

actually MTG sure you can absolutly get fucked by your draw or by getting flooded, but the decks are so consistent now and you got sideboarding so you can react to the opponents deck after game 1

"Playing cards" typically refers to standard suited/numbered cards, not TCGs.
