So in weekends in my departmental WhatsApp group, we just randomly talk about soccer bets and sometimes drop a particular game and keep it open for correct score prediction to be made on it, and the first person with the correct score goes home with a data subscription, this has been going on for almost two years now and people have gotten used to it without knowing it.
This is one of the chat I just bumped into by one of us in the group chat and at this point I feel most of my friend have made it compulsory to always gamble every weekend.

Do you see this as addiction or just catching of fun?
Mind you, we just enjoy the moment and might just joke around with people making predictions based on the teams, they love but we are mostly gamblers at our different ends.
Is actually addiction for me reason being that the expression is more like something you can not do without and that is where addiction have it's play but when at some point you can decide to go for break is more like fun because you are having a control of your emotions when it comes to gambling, and you will tend to make a better predictions when you are not betting on regular basis than when you are betting regularly because it gives you that opportunity to monitor your club performance before taken a strick.
