People have different hobbies among which gambling is one of them. Not everyone can profit from gambling and not everyone can withdraw money but it forces gamblers to deposit money regularly, it happens because of some hobby and some because of addiction. I myself have lost a lot of money in gambling and gambling is not the cause of my addiction but sometimes gambling attracts me a lot. Because it gives me peace of mind. This is probably the hobby and the fun. When I gamble I don't care about making money. I only enjoy gambling games at that time. Like watching sports, watching movies, playing indoor outdoor games is also my hobby

That is right but when they use gambling as a hobby, they must thinks about the effects that they can gets from gambling. As playing gambling can gives them lose much money and the addiction, they must have a way to controls themselves so they will not lose that much money and still aware of playing gambling to avoids the addiction.

Not many people can wins from gambling so they must realizes about that and not using too much money to playing gambling. If they can control themselves when playing gambling, their risks to becomes addicted to gambling will not too big as they can holds themselves from playing gambling excessively. They will playing gambling for fun and can gives them relaxation and also peace of minds like you. But if they thinks that gambling can makes them gets deeper, they don't have to playing gambling and search for the other activities which will not makes them lose money.

In my opinion, if we talk strictly about the concept of “hobby,” there is still a difference between such hobbies as collecting stamps or baseball cards and such hobbies as gambling. This difference still manifests itself in relation to your passion for gambling. If previously unknown people find out that you are interested in collecting stamps, and this is your hobby, then the attitude towards such a hobby is still more favorable than if these people find out that your hobby is gambling. In the second case, strangers immediately develop some negativity towards this hobby of yours simply because gambling has long been classified as a wicked hobby.
By the way, all this must be taken into account when you tell strangers about your hobbies.
