Yes, poker is generally considered a form of gambling because it involves wagering money on the outcome of a game that includes an element of chance. However, unlike games of pure luck (like slot machines or roulette), poker also heavily relies on skill, strategy, psychology, and decision-making. This distinction has led some to argue that poker is more of a skill game with gambling aspects, especially in the long run where skilled players can consistently outperform less skilled ones. Still, from a legal and regulatory standpoint in most countries, poker is categorized under gambling.

In many countries, poker is not considered a game of chance. Laws generally define gambling as a game in which winnings and losses depend solely or primarily on luck. Generally, in poker, the player's skill outweighs luck, classifying it as a game of the mind.

Yes, people argue about this question all the time. Most people would say it's gambling because you bet money on an uncertain outcome. You may get the best card, bet all the money, but still lose to the bad card. This is just part of the game.

I think so.
It involves luck and probability: the cards dealt are random.
Element of financial risk: betting and gambling require real money.
