Message: [QUOTE="Stu_Ungar, post: 1631197, member: 39779"] 100% poker is gambling. The act of gambling is defined as wagering money on the outcome of an uncertain event in a game of change. When playing poker 1. money is wagered 2. unless you hold the absolute nuts the outcome is uncertain. 3. poker is a game of chance. The skill centres around wagering money when you are either ahead or unlikely to be called, but since you do not know the outcome of that wager until after its made, poker is a gambling activity. A lot of people try and distance themselves from this because they simply do not like the word "gambling". [/QUOTE]
