You would accept poker as a school subject?

Maybe in the last year of school, it would be an interesting subject 😅

For sure, if the teachings would focus on the soft skills like patience, strategic thinking, resilience, long-term-goal-setting and so on...

it was written here above, but I will remind you that card gambling and everything related to it has a limit of up to 18 years, there are countries under 21, and there are countries where it is completely prohibited, the only thing the state should do for children is not to teach children bluff and the wisdom of economics, and to provide them a carefree childhood, provide free education and medicine, and not load them with some problems

The psyche of children is too sensitive to gambling. And it can lead to addiction. At school a child should learn mathematics, history, geography and other subjects, and not delve into excitement for money.

It seems to me that the school curriculum is already saturated with various subjects and there is no need to add another one. Poker can be like a hobby club, but not in school, maybe in university

In ordinary schools, of course, poker will never be taught. For this, there is a poker school from the poker academy. It is difficult to imagine a professional without the academic knowledge of a poker school. It is worth spending time not only on the issues of playing certain types of hands and other aspects of the strategy of the game, but also on the mathematics of poker, as well as the psychology of the game.

I think programming a basic poker game could be a good project for computer science students, or advanced high school students. You would need to develop an interactive interface, track hands, manage random deck shuffle, button, blinds, action, etc. You could also learn how to develop code to more readily add future enhancements, and it would be fun to develop test plans and test the application.

Not here in Brazil, not for the next 300 years at least, education here is totally backward, the level of basic education in this country is ridiculous, so I believe that countless other changes should be applied before poker enters the teaching grid.
