Do you (or anyone from your family or friends) consider yourself a poker addict?
Have you ever had any problems playing poker (any kind) that made you think about it?

I can say yes. I've tried to quit like 4 times in 7 years and I can't. I feel pleasure, relax, make me very happy. looks like a drug. hahaha

Poker is not addictive it is not like all games of chance. Poker is completely different, it has strategy, it has a bit of luck, it has moments, it has decisions, it has many things that make it a different sport.

Of course buddy. Welcome to the world of gambling. Good luck , I hope you end up well. My journey hasn't been so great so far and so it is for most gamblers. See you at the tables!

I would not consider myself an addict but I like to play as much as possible. I enjoy playing poker so much, that I would play this without money being involved. And when I have time, I like to play, with or without money.

it isnt the game poker it self thats addictive its the incentive behind it, we as human beings are built to always wanting to win, and the adrenaline rush and thrill of taking risks thats whats addictive

We're addicted to a lot of things. This includes food and drink and much more. Moreover, this addiction is physical. Not to mention addiction to smoking or alcohol. So poker is just one of the addictions.

Depends on how you consider it, you may become addicted.

Well, after all, poker does not cause such addiction as drugs, poker is unlikely to threaten your life, of course, many suffer from gambling addiction, but it’s still not so critical now and can be treated, well, the most important thing is to always play with a bankroll, then you won’t there will be no problem

The truth is that anything can be addictive, it is only the things that get us in trouble that people talk about.
