It is a passion and hobby more than an addiction. When I think of addiction I think of a habit or hobby that is harmful (smoking, degenerate gambling, drugs, alcohol, etc) Since I started all of my bank rolls from nothing, I have nothing invested but time, lots of time. Its not lost time necessarily because it has improved my craft/game, and made me a much better and profitable player. I have had to learn to balance my time since I have been married and had a child. I ultimately want poker being my main source of income, and I hope to accomplish that sooner than later. I see grinders at the casino every weekend that has retired from a nine to five and made the casino their office. But then again, like I stated in my earlier post, some lose their house payment or grocery money in a holdem game, which definitely is not cool. That is why I love the fact that you can grind to something from nothing. If you feel like you have a problem, you most likely do and it should not go overlooked. I think the moral of the story is finding a balance, too much of anything could be harmful to the mind and/or body.
