Many players can become addicted to the game of poker. a) Constantly invest money to play in different rooms
b) Invest time to participate in all the Freeroll tournaments of the day
Which of the two activities can be considered more of an addiction to the game of Poker?
I don't think there is poker addiction. I am confident in addiction to
gambling, which, among other things, can include addiction to poker, and only in the case of making constant deposits and playing over the limit without even understanding the basics.
There is no addiction to gambling here, as
freerolls do not bring big winnings and there is no incentive to play for a penny. It's just that you will be playing a lot in micro tournaments and freerolls for a while. Only then will you decide to play at a more professional level and devote time to your studies or play as a hobby player from time to time for fun.
I speak not only by my example, but also by the example of many people I know.
The most striking example, I have 2 friends who play poker. Moreover, they play any games (cash, spin-and-go, SNGs, tournaments and tournaments with any limits up to $ 1050 and 400 nl. But at the same time they play
slots in the Casino, and if they win a lot, they switch to poker, a couple of days later, and back to the casino, and this continues until everyone loses. This is an addiction to gambling, not just playing poker.
