Report Thailand Recognises Poker and American Football as Official Sports
As for poker being a sport? I would say poker is best described as a psychological sport, not about physical strength, but about mental endurance, emotional control, and the ability to out think your opponents under pressure. I know some people are already rolling their eyes like, “How is poker a sport? You just sit there and play cards.” But let’s be real, if the only requirement for something to be a sport is physical movement, then we’d have to kick out stuff like chess, shooting, and even eSports. And yet all of those are widely recognized as legitimate competitive sports. Poker is a mental game, but it demands serious discipline, preparation, and endurance. Players study for hours, review hands, train their mindset, and sit for 10–16 hour sessions while staying focused and sharp the entire time. Try doing that deep in a tournament on Day 4 with real money on the line and see how “easy” it feels. It’s strategy, stamina, and skill all rolled into one, and just like other sports, the edge goes to those who put in the work. So yeah, poker absolutely deserves its spot among other recognized competitive activities. You don’t have to sweat buckets to be an athlete in every sense of the word.- 1
