I am considering what the only one thing that poker would be or what it could be most, so I didn't include "game" and "hobbie" because in my opinion, poker is both ever. So in your opinion, what kind of activity is poker : a gambling, a sport, a job or an investiment?

For me I see it as a hobby and study to be a profitable hobby!

For me, any card games are primarily gambling games, which are inherently very similar to sports. But for me personally, poker is a hobby and I am more inclined to see it as a gamble than a sport.

At first I had the impression of being a sport after a while I saw that some people work with it but for me playing Poker is a game.:(

My choice would be none of the options, for me poker is a hobby. If I had to choose one of the alternatives it would be an investment.

I don't see anything like a sport in poker. This is a common gambling. Most people are interested in poker as a form of enrichment.

For me, poker is a hobby. But in general, I believe that poker is a sport and poker deserves to be recognized as an Olympic sport.

It,s hard to answer that question, but i want to say, that i don,t believe, that Poker is a sport. This thought just can,t go to my mind at all.
If we are talking about online poker , for sure it,s a little bit like a gambling. Sure, some people can play it prefessionally for many hours in a row and this is a job for them and they can live for this money, but i think most of the players just play it to take some fun and to earn some extra money if they can. Not sure what means Investment, maybe some people can invest in poker. I also sure, that lots of people already very disappointed about online poker and they don,t trust to online poker sites.

in my opinion online poker is nothing more than a game and professional table poker is rather an investment.

Cant play sports anymore so I play poker to fill in the gap I miss so much. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.

In my opinion, poker is two in one. Poker is a gamble, poker is a sport. Therefore, I am probably a gambler-athlete. :)

I really like card games and the opportunity to win some money! I like poker because it is a game that requires a lot of mentality

Hi.
I think poker is a sport. I do not consider myself a professional, but nonetheless for me, poker is a favorite hobby.
Good luck.

Poker for me is entertainment, adrenaline, the best online game, maybe in the future and a way to earn money.

If I didn’t have any profit from poker, I would have given up playing long ago. This is my job

Poker is gambling for me. If I want to make a stable profit, I have to increase the number of trials, but I don't have that much time.
