Wordle 244 4/6

I made a slight mistake in that my second guess didn't include the yellow letter from my first guess. Probably still wouldn't have got it in three though.

Turns out, if I had used my Wordle cheat program, I would not have got it because the correct answer is less "common" than four other possibles. Also, I made a mistake in the fourth line, using a word with a letter that I knew was wrong from the second line.

Another 6/6. Oh, hum.

I keep feeling like one day I have too many options for the last guess and not get it right.
I think I did get to the last option this time around, so it seemed okay (there were a lot of possible consonants already eliminated).

Q. Is this result due to talent or to luck?

Not sure the graphic translates that well. I got 3 out of four. I can see how that could become addictive.

Should have got there one earlier but I tried a more obscure word at 5. Should have gone for the obvious.
