There is no sport where an 80 year old man in a cowboy hat can beat a 21 year old. So no poker is not a sport it’s a skill just like golf.

[dcproster]

Sport is a competition with other people.Poker is a sport.

 

[makisaa]

End of thread.

Q. E. D.

 

[SouthparkSith]

Do you think Poker should be considered as Sport?

If they consider 48 hillbillies chasing each other around in a circle for 5 hours at 200 miles per hour a sport then yes absolutely poker is a sport!

 

[vladikov]

poker is a sport of mind. It is like a chess in both uses the mind

 

[Fastone2]

I already do... LOL.

 

[Nikolay Nakhaev]

why poker is not a sport, if championships are held by a huge number of people from all over the world, leaders, etc. Winners receive cups.
All this is more like a sport

 

[wrabinho]

i think that is possible..

 

[lilu80]

Poker is sport imo to me, when player have very good mindset, not only poker skills!

 

[Principg]

Really love poker, but poker as a sport..come on
Sport is about athleticism, everything is clear to me.

Dart, Chess, Snooker are sport without athleticism

 

[Principg]

Dart, Chess, Snooker are sport without athleticism

Got me
Anyway, you need some technique to play dart and snooker..while chess...hmm, i wouldn't say it's sport.

 

[Nikolay Nakhaev]

poker is different.
this is a hobby
it's a profession
this is sport
it's just fun
who will choose for themselves what is convenient

 

[besplatnee]

I think this is exclusively a business!

but golf is considered a sport, just saying. by your comparison your kind of agreeing

id love to see it being an Olympic event.

 

[christmasscorpion]

I never considered golf a sport and never will

 

[navicula]

poker online = Esport?

What is your opinion?

 

[frazzle1991]

I never considered golf a sport and never will

That ican understand.

The more people that want it to be a sport however, it eventually will be. Soon we'll have country based events where 5-10 per nation enter and compete to see who has the balls (or lack there of not leaving out the ladies) to win.
