I watch those poker sometimes because I don't know how to play it. Trying to learn through observation can be hard.

It all depends on what a person's definition of sport is.
The traditional definition includes something that involves physical activity. Playing video games does not fall into that (traditional) category, I don't think it's fair to real athlete to refer to gamers as playing a sport.

Personally, I don't find it interesting to watch, but I don't assume people who do watch are lazy.
If you actually go back and re-read what I posted, you will notice that I never said that. What I did say was lazy people who think video games is a sport, there's no other logical reason why one would come to conclusion that it is a sport.

competative chess
Ever seen a Grand Master chess match?

there is usually a digital LCD board on the wall showing the positions.
after the moves ( and some moves can take 20 minutes).
The board updates itself with the new position.

The players sit in nice executive chairs, and write their moves on a score card
After a particurally good move, you might actually hear a shuffling in the audience -but absolutely NO talking

I can watch for days. going over all the possible combinations in play.
