Poker in Olympic games

[emils123]

A lot of people thinks poker is a sport. There even was rumors that Poker is going to be included into Olympic games. What do you guys think about that? Is poker a sport or just gambling?

This debate has always cracked me up. I love poker, but it is not a sport. By definition, sports involve physical activity/exertion.

Poker could be in Olympics soon, poker is a tough sport, eat or be eaten. It would be awesome to see Negreanu, ivey and all the rest of poker legends battle at Olympics.

That would be great. I agree that poker should be in olympics and I believe one day i will be the one who will be sitting at the olympics table.
