Ok, let's talk about addiction. You may be surprised, but we all constantly experience different kinds of dependencies. We eat. Sleeping. Breathe the air. We communicate. Have sex. You will be surprised, but this is also a dependency. Try not to breathe for a few minutes and you will quickly understand how much you depend on the usual air.
We also depend on money. Of course, when a lot of this dependence is almost not felt, or is transformed into other types of dependence. A good poker player wins money. A good player is not at all passionate (Yes, I certainly understand that this topic is devoted to the dependence on gambling). But look at it from the other side! Excitement in general is contraindicated in any professional activity. Any case involving money in general should be based on a reasonable approach, and understanding your actions. Excitement is when you make a decision (including playing, at the poker table) on the basis of emotions, rather than mathematical analysis or common sense.
For players who do not know how to distinguish between mind and emotion - there is a game of "game money." But of course, it is these players who pay their deposits with all the profits of the industry, as well as the gains of good players who make the withdrawal of funds. We will be fair - it is gamblers who pay for all this show, called online poker.
