Do You Consider Poker a Sport?

[Datdude1]

Yes I consider poker to be a sport. I believe that any activity that requires training and practice to develop a skill and opposes two or more opponents against each other to determine a winner is considered a sport.

Well i am sweating while playing so thats definitly a Sport to me
I guess it depends on your definition of what a sport is. If chess is considered one i guess so is poker. If you consider sports some phisycal drill it isnt.

I thought about it and I'd like to update my answer. I think it could be considered an e-sport.

Hello. If a person thinks poker is a sport, that alright. That thinking could get poker into the Olympics, right?

Of course it is. A mind Sport. And very tough one.
If you get deep into this sport, you will see.
