The crazy part is I do not Gamble! Friends often say "But you play Poker" but I don't consider Poker as Gambling, On-line I have never lost a single Penny because I have always started playing Freerolls, and only when I have accrued enough money do I ever start to buy-in to games, So I am using Virtual money, I never had in the first place.
As for live Games I consider the Buy-in as the Ticket price I have to pay to enter the Game. Just like the entrance price for a Cinema visit or Football match. I have occasionally played at cash tables but don't go out of my way to play them. I prefer Tournaments and really don't care if I Win or Lose, as long as I can play for 2 or 3 hours, I can say I had a good game.
Gambling can be problematic when it starts to impact your Family and Friends around you, I know from experience, Been there, Done that, and got the T-Shirt. But I quit Gambling over 40 Years ago, so that I didn't cause my Family and Friends any undue worry.
I started playing Poker on-line, over 20 years ago, and made a promise to my Wife I would not deposit on any on-line Poker site, I still haven't and do not intend to, If I cannot play on-line for free, I Don't Play!
