well if you go by this then i would sy its a sport. Also if not a sport why would it be on ESPN? Poker is not physical (well not most of the time) like most sports but the skill is still there needed to compete at a high level. With that being said i think most people dont look at poker being a sport since you have people sitting aorund on their *** for 12-16 hours at a time. So would fishing, bowling, or any other type of outdoors hunting be considered a sport? I think it what it really comes down to is what do you consider a sport and how you looik at it.
