What do you think of this recent news people? poker was positioned as a mental sport just like chess, bridge, checkers and go, among others.
Cool but you have to train your body too 😄

It could be considered as sport, but also it has a fair ammount of gambling involved.
I would like to get the Sports classification, so i am eager to see how this evolves...

In my country it had already been recognized a few months ago, and it seems very good to me since poker wears out the mind a lot, so it is appropriate to recognize it as a mental sport

I am not sure I would agree about poker being classified as a sport, but I would agree it's a mind game like chess. What will it be classified in the future? Who knows.

Sport of the mind, unfortunately some still resist the idea, fortunately it has been gaining more fans every day.

It's been a while since this news, but I think it's fair.

I would say that it has some characteristics but I am not sure that it is about sports

If poker becomes more popular and this has a positive effect on the increase in bonuses, then I am all in favor of poker becoming a sport:D
