To me I just understand that gambling is a habit that you can develop with time and it’s done to addiction. Well so many people can also see gambling as a hobby because some people is always happy when they are gambling do they don’t gamble with much amount of money, the gamble with some small and they always see it as a fun to them so they don’t feel like gambling is a bad habit. That is just the truth about the whole analysis do my own understanding is how I feel about gambling.

The thing is, as much as you enjoy it and you're not disregarding the life that you have right now then gambling is serving you good. But if you see it, as a fulfillment of life then you're doing it wrong. Just treat it like a hobby. Not a job because it would put you a stress. Not as an addiction because it will take away your life from your family or career. Just play it like how you play your guitar ono your past time. And maybe, you get some jackpot some times or even just penny win. As long as you enjoy it.

Gambling as a hobby have caused a stressful argument in this thread. Lots of people think that doing it as a hobby could be detrimental to the player's financial status, while some actually admit that gambling should be a hobby. Whatever it is a gambler is doing he is meant to moderate his actions. Gambling hobbyists tend to enjoy the game especially those who gamble with lesser amount of money. And don't seek to play each day because it's their hobby. Not every player who sees it as a hobby probably understands the risks of not getting it right.

We all know that our hobby doesn't stress us or affects in any way a we wish to gamble. It means he can play anytime due to the way he loves gambling. But, that will be a huge trouble for the player if he begin to participate in gambling this way, because it's his hobby. Gambling problem doesn't know any hobbyist that doesn't respect the responsible rules of gambling. He'll find himself in trouble, which could pin him in this gambling lifestyle for a long period.

Sure, its possible, but its a slippery slope. Exciting games and wins are intoxicating. What started as a hobby can rapidly become a habit and spiral out of control. I've seen the best of them cave to the casino. Its psychological game goes beyond money. Narrow misses and the potential of a big win keep you hooked.

Gamblers arent all addicts. Hobbies and addiction can be blurred. Being moderate and self-aware is key. Keep it casual, set limitations, and leave when you're ahead, and it may stay a hobby. Please reconsider if you're chasing losses, disregarding your commitments, or always worrying about the next bet.
