I dunno, but imagine a strict training regime of sitting at a crowded table in a smoke filled room for many hours each day.
 
in my opinion I think it must be Brazil, Russia and Canadar these are the countries with the most gains at the online and live poker tables I believe

I think the Argentines are going to be fighting for that beautiful gold medal. The other 2 countries would be the United States and England.

I cannot agree with this.

The Surinamese will definitely take gold:deal::deal::deal:😀😀😀
 
I think it is difficult to choose because at the end of the day in a mental game where luck influences, not because they have many players from Brazil and who often win tournaments that they would win, since it would be the same number of players for each country:jd4::jd4::jd4::jd4:
 
It would certainly be brazil, always dominating the world's poker rankings
 
It would be very difficult to choose just one country, in recent times the dominance of poker has changed a lot, that's why without hesitation I'm running for Argentina, which by the hand of Damian Salas holds a world title
 
What kind of question is this of course the United States the greatest country in the world

It's hard question. I think it doesn't mean necessarily to be the country with the most active players but definitely they can have an advantage, even way I go with countries like Norway, Iceland, Romania for the podium but for surely this scenario can be debated only until such kind of contest will happen and to see the results.

Without a doubt, 3 countries that would be nearest to the bottom of the list (add in Switzerland & you might just have the bottom 3 there... at least for countries that actually play online poker)

I think you might be correct... although I think I'd substitute 'Sweden' into the Top3 instead of Canada. At one time (2012-2015) I'd say Canada was closer to 1st place (with lots of the Top USA players emigrating to Canada in order to play online poker).
 
I think the best candidates are Brazil, Russia, USA, Canada and Germany.
But in Poker there is no need to make huge financial investments in training. So countries that are Olympic powers due to their high investments would not be able to achieve relevance because of that. Soon, we could have pleasant surprises. Because Poker is one of the most inclusive sport.
 
I assume there getting awesome at poker in Afghanistan 🇦🇫 but since the won't let the women play let go with Germany gold Canada second and China 3rd
