Default Re: Poker at the London Olympics 2012

This would be completely idiotic.



There was a significant movement in the chess world to get into the olympics for a little while.
In efforts to do this there were some events that required drug-testing since that is an olympic requirement for consideration.

It was a big deal in the chess-world as most major chess players thought that drug-testing was ridiculous and also thought that trying to get their 'sport' into the olympics was pretty pointless as well.



I think that chess is more viable as an olympic 'sport' than poker.
But I think either would be just plain stupid.
