YES, Harry as a poker player, not for the money but just for the challenge of seeing if he could read the other players well enough to beat them. Would be good training for an MI5 agent.

Chess might be in the running because of the need to plan strategy many moves into the future, although I think it would be a bit slow for Harry.

Race car driving (as an amateur of course) -- that would get the blood flowing, the endorphins popping (or whatever they do) and has the element of danger that I think would appeal to H.
