In poker you have some control over the outcome through your actions in the game. Your skill at judging horses and jockeys cannot affect the outcome of a horse race. Options trading I don’t really know enough to have a strong opinion, but since it’s already regulated and has some utility in contributing to price stability, I don’t really consider it in the same class.
