Can chess be considered a sport? Poker is essentially very similar to chess, where almost everything is decided by skill, and those who constantly train and learn win. Also, poker has an element of competition and competition as in most sports, players can play in many tournaments and win first places for which they get medals, cups and solid money, just like in professional sports. I would only classify poker as a mental sport.sabir said:
I have probably seen stranger games in the Olympics, It seems every time they hold an event something new has been introduced by the host Country.sabir said:
Of course! Poker is about tactics. Every sport has tactical plans by which the players play the game. Also in poker, each player follows his own tactics for the game. I would compare poker to chess. Both involve the brain. I look forward to poker being officially added to the Olympic Games.sabir said:
In my opinion, poker is first and foremost a game of chance. Of course, as in sports, in poker a lot depends on our patience, discipline and skill, but still, poker is a game of chance where luck is essentially the most important factor.sabir said:
