I don't gamble like a compulsive gambler so I don't need to track or test myself to see how my gambling activity is and whether I'm on the wrong track or the right track. I'm not too excited about gambling. When I'm not working and I have completely free time, I gamble to pass the time and it's very small. I like to gamble with small amounts of money as much as possible and my amount is never more than $100. My lucky number is 70 so I gamble with $70 most of the time and the winning ratio is high. I don't know how it happens and I don't think I'm smart enough for it. I think I'm on the right track.
Your gambling approach doesn't look like a stressed gambler. Keeping track of wins and losses only makes gamblers more frustrated and stressed - and may even lead them to try something even more financially damaging. Many gamblers try to chase wins to cover their losses - instead of winning, they end up losing everything.

Gambling should be like that - use a limited amount of money, limit your time and just enjoy the game. It doesn't have to be anything ambitious and of course gambling is not a job even though many people do it on a daily basis. But I have to say about addiction - you don't have to be compulsive to be addicted to gambling, generally speaking you are an addict to gambling if you do it repeatedly.
