hmmmmmmmm
You are going to get a biased view from me as i love poker and YES its a sport.
Points that agree with me:
1: A sport you have to be actively involved and skill that is governed by a set of rules.
Poker, well your governed by rules and your always active in watching other players, using your brain to strategically think of ways to take your opponents out.
2: Poker is on ESPN
3: Practice. Just like you do in any sport, it is essential you do for poker.
I can think of more points, but im tired. lol

No poker is not a sport, you do not have to be fit, you don't need to be an athelete so no it's not a sport.
It requires very good skill and the ability to read the "hands".
Definitely not a sport.

poker is not a sport if u look up the definition of a sport it does not fit as stated above u dont have 2 be fit it does not require physical training. poker is a hobby for some and is more mental. it may be on espn but only cause it is played in competition form and has decent ratings

So many holidays so little time and money LOL
I love poker...and I play all the time. However, it is not a sport.
nope, not a sport in my opinion
Of couse poker is not a sport.
Foot is a sport, chess is a sport, but poker is gambling!
If it wasn't, there wouldn't be no international championships and stuff. Just like chess, which is considered a sport and also requires no athletic skills.
