Bridge is more intellectually challenging and has the components of theory, math and psychology , like poker , but i dont think either one is better than the other .

Poker is definitely the number one card game, cant see any other card game can be in the same level as poker.

Poker is hands down the greatest card game ever. There are way to many factors involved in regards to a win to determine who is actually the best player. The greatest payees lose the best hands, and the rookie win championships in the first 3 months of playing. You just never know with poker. Good luck my friend.

Hello, for me yes, I have played several types of card games but none like Texas Hold'em poker, it is for me the best card strategy game, just like a Spanish card game, which in argentina we call trick .

First and foremost, poker is incredibly dynamic and versatile. With numerous variations such as Texas Hold'em, Omaha, and Stud, there's a poker game for every preference and skill level. This variety ensures that the game remains fresh and engaging, offering endless opportunities for players to learn, adapt, and improve.
Moreover, poker is a game that rewards skill and strategic thinking. While luck certainly plays a role in the short term, it is ultimately skill that determines long-term success at the tables. Whether it's making precise mathematical calculations, reading opponents' behavior, or executing well-timed bluffs, poker challenges players to constantly push their limits and refine their abilities.

I think the best but definitely the most popular card game is poker.
Now that I think about it, I don't know of any other card games that are as popular. Apart from other games with friends, which are not necessarily for money, but just for fun.

It depends on who and where you ask. To me it seems like a good card game, EASY TO PLAY, it has similarities to TRUCO in Argentina.
Now that said, here in Argentina there are 2 card games that old people would tell you are a better card game than poker, they are called MUS and TUTE.
Not everything happens around poker.

Poker is a card game that combines the art of strategy, luck and psychology. Over the years, poker has captured the hearts of players around the world, giving them the opportunity to experience the thrill of intriguing rounds and bluffs.Many people probably do not know that the name “poker” itself comes from the French word “poque”, which in turn has roots in the German word “pochen”, which means “to hit”. Thus, the name of the game is associated with the action of pounding the table as a sign of bluffing or confidence in one's own hand.
The etymology behind the name "poker" is a testament to its rich history and cultural evolution. Originating from the French word "poque" and the German word "pochen," which both denote actions associated with bluffing and confidence, the name encapsulates the essence of the game itself—the tension, the uncertainty, and the boldness inherent in each hand.

I wonder what the best means - most people play no-limit hold'em, in my opinion, simply because the game according to its rules is quite simple and gives enough action - at any time you can play for all the chips
