A lot of poker game tournaments have been announced on this board over time, and am I kind of wondering what makes poker games so inclined to the tournament and we don't see such competitions being announced for other games?

Poker is one of the few casinos games where you don't play against the house, you only play against other gamblers and everybody has the same winning chances. It makes it the perfect setup for a tournament because you can play with 2-10 people per table and can include a large number of players. The main thing about tournaments is the prize money and the more participants means the higher the price money. Another good thing about poker is the blind structure that keeps increasing, this means that games won't last forever and there is pressure on the players to keep defending their blinds. Maybe casinos could think of other tournament structure for the future, like who roles the highest numbers. But these games will always be directly against the casino and not so interactive.

People are competitive by nature, and while it is obvious we enjoy all the casino games there is no doubt that poker has a special place in the hearts of many gamblers around the world.

While there are other kind of competitions, when it comes to the different gambling games there is nothing like facing an opponent and then beating them, not only you get the joy of getting some money, you also get the joy of being able to beat your opponent, and this is a very powerful feeling for most people, which explains why almost all sport competitions revolve around the concept of beating your opponent.
