Poker is not sport, sport moves all body muscles and poker is just another profession:joyman:

Yes , PINAS , I agree , Poker Is Not A Sport ,
100 times I said it and 1000 more I'll say it : IMO Poker is a game of skill that includes gamble , I don't know the best definition , but for sure there is no competitive physical activity/effort to improve physical skills or keep healthy .

Poker is a complexe game and a dificult one.It's a mind sport and not everyone can play it on a decent level.

I believe that poker is a sport, poker needed endurance and willpower and concentration

Poker is a mental and intellectual sport in the same category with chess

 

[Doblador bus]

No card game is considered a sport, I think.

 

[vitalicharniak]

Poker - a crazy strategy, psychology, deception, passion, risk and patience. All these qualities are inherent in sport, such as chess or take billiard. But it is still just a game for fun.

 

[kapos77]

Poker is not worse than chess or backgammon, for example. Of course it's a sport

 

[Gulya]

Poker is not a sport

 

[sakenby]

Anything with the element of competition can be called a sport.I mean tournament poker and tables s&g...For those who say that poker is a game, I want to say that football is also a game...

 

[Tulipaneiro]

Poker can make you very tired, but not like play tennis or football xd

 

[pashkawell]

I think that poker - is a sport. In poker endurance is important, good discipline and good mental work.

 

[Ultfrozen]

Poker is like sports, you have a lot of work to achieve something, to go through a lot of UPS and downs, have a good strong mind and a great desire to win.

 

[nevedimka29]

we can say that poker is a sport for the mind, but he was not officially qualified in sports, so who you choose)

 

[vadimknyshov]

I think that poker is more a game of chance than a sport, especially if it's online poker
