Analysts, financial experts, and chess grandmasters have acknowledged that the game of Poker includes a generous level of skill.

In recent decades, different High Courts have cited the summit court’s choice and expressed that the government cannot intermediate with the game of rummy played with stakes. In 1996, a three-judge seat of the Supreme Court repeated its 1967 judgment and decided that games including a considerable and dominant level of skill and expertise fall in the ‘games of mere skill‘.

Many Supreme Court decisions have noticed that offering games of skill are a fundamental right under the Indian constitution, and thus Poker can't be restricted.
