The type of game in question is a little different, being known as Match Poker; the modality seeks to be tested in Paris 2024, to reach the 2028 Olympics.
Every poker player imagines what it would be like if this mind sport were worth a medal, during an official Olympic competition. But few people know that there are already many people doing this through the IFMP (International Match Poker Federation).
At the moment, the IFMP is making an effort to include the card game in the test event in Paris in 2024 and, of course, they are looking to definitely reach the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028.
For a sport to be accepted into the Olympics, some minimum requirements must be respected; such as the existence of a joint organization and the participation of a large number of people, such as Match Poker.
