Message: [QUOTE="thwenth1983, post: 5281589, member: 396943"] [b]Is poker a sport or a game of chance?[/b] Exactly one year after its founding, on April 29, 2009, the International Poker Federation (IPF) achieved its highest goal: the recognition of poker as a mental sport. The International Mind Games Association (IMSA) acknowledged on the 29th that poker is a mental sport. The decision was announced in Dubai, where the association's Annual Congress takes place. Poker now joins the other four "Mind Sports": Chess, Bridge, Checkers and Go. Here is a list of the richest poker players, which proves there is nothing to do with gambling. Antonio Esfandiari, total earnings: US $ 23,439,917. Sam Trickett, current earnings: $ 18,717,124. Daniel Negreanu, Total earnings: $ 18,252,229. Erik Seidel, total winnings: $ 17,602,056. Phil Hellmuth, o total de ganhos: $ 15.805.950. The game is a game in which to win or lose, does not depend on the skill of the player, most of the time the mathematical odds are used to define the prize, the lower the probability of the hit, the higher the prize. If you bet money on someone, face or crown, you have 50%, chance to win and 50% chance to lose, every time the coin is played the bet is $ 1, if you play 100 times, your profit or the injury will be close to zero. In games like roulette, the chance to hit a random number is 2.70%, against 97.30% of the casino, it is a game that the more you play, the more you lose. Who does not want to join a game where the chance of you winning is 97%, that's why casino billings and billions of dollars. Games of chance are games created with studies of mathematical probability, in which the player has a very small chance of winning [/QUOTE]
