Because poker *is* gambling. The term "gambling" does not presuppose either skill or chance, it simply presupposes monetary risk/reward.

Also a wager. I've seen a number of threads get derailed when people want to leave out the wagering part of it, and then argue that the stock market is gambling. Without a wager, you do not have gambling.
