I suppose you're looking to play online poker with a fear of being labelled a "gambler",,,,My advice to you be,,,You can't live your life in fear of what others will think of you.This is YOUR life,,,,and you can live it any way you want,without hurting others.Since my money is not involved in buy-in, would it be fair to say that freerolls are not part of gambling?
definition of gamblingSince my money is not involved in buy-in, would it be fair to say that freerolls are not part of gambling?
That is the point. By definition gambling requires payment for the input with expectation of certain results (output). My question was, since no input is there, therefore can we say freerolls not a part of gambling?The same game just does not require payment for the input that's the whole difference.

life is a gamble so freerolling is a gamble too maybe not as much risk but still a gamble nonetheless
Freerolls are part of the games taking place in the poker room. The poker room is a game of chance. Hence freerolls are also gambling. Am I wrong?Since my money is not involved in buy-in, would it be fair to say that freerolls are not part of gambling?
I would say poker is not gambling. In poker players with more skill win more, with gambling players with more skill lose less.
