The examples don't hold in most jurisdictions (except for the stock market and if short sells are allowed).
All of the three categories are defined as gambling in pretty much all jurisdictions across the globe. However, they are classified as different types, e.g. roulette is closer to slots than poker is. Then poker can be "cash tables" vs "tournament". The main classifier difference is "game of chance" vs "game of skill", yet there are lots of nuances.
- jbstack 2mo agoAs I stated in my comment, they weren't examples of the legal definition of gambling. What the law says something is can often differ greatly from the every day understanding. The legal definition can also change according to the whims of the legislature while the every day meaning tends to stay more static.
