Message: [QUOTE="fletchdad, post: 5503325, member: 65205"] This has been discussed so many times. I guess it like the flat earth theory. Some people just want to make up their own facts and tout them as real.... The definition of "sport" ALWAYS!!!! has physical exertion, physical prowess or physical activity in its description. Do you really think that putting your chips in the middle, or going to the bathroom in the break is the definition of that? Poker is.... wait for this..... NOT A SPORT. Is there skill involved? Thankfully not often enough... but that is another topic. But, yes, skill can be a major part of some players involvement. But physical activity? Sorry, try again. Seriously. But please get all "sporty" and use those muscular fingers to type arguments about how poker is a sport. That wont make it one, but feel free. [LIST] [*] an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
