Probably almost every poker player would like poker to be included in the Olympic Games, it would be interesting and exciting to watch the broadcasts, but unfortunately, most likely, this should not be expected in the near future.

I don't know if this is right or wrong, but poker is recognized as a sports discipline in Ukraine. Perhaps one day it will become an Olympic discipline.

I think that poker deserves to be recognized as a sport, including an Olympic sport. But I very much doubt that this will happen in the near future. Although to be honest, it is not of fundamental importance to me.

I think that with organization it could be done, although it is very complex.

In my opinion, poker is a game of chance and this game has nothing to do with sports. In my opinion, poker cannot and will not be recognized as an Olympic sport. People have had enough of nonsense.

No, If that was possible Chess would be an event. wsop is the top as it is right now. But it is like soccer, it also has 100 different championships.

Sure, why not. But I think it's not going to happen in a near future.

In my opinion Poker will never be included in the Olympics.

Because it is a form of gambling.

I would love poker to be an Olympic game, it would be a great thing for everyone. It would show the world that we belong to a beautiful sport and it would open us up to many more countries and markets.
