I actually mean playing poker professionally,like taking part in tournament's,etc.
Do you think that it is considered all across the world as gambling?

No. Poker is a skill game. But it can be gambling if you want it to be. Just go all in every hand. Grin

It's is both. You cannot be sure of the outcome (except in rare situations when you know you can't lose) so it is gambling.

The skill part is knowing when the right times to put your money in the pot, but you still need the cards to come out the way you want them to.
