Not really comparable. Just different things. Like comparing apples and oranges. As long as you know your limits and know when you are chasing bad money after good.

It depends on personal preferences and risk tolerance. Poker involves skill and strategy, offering a chance to improve over time. Lottery betting relies on luck, with slim odds of winning big. Consider your comfort with risk and the enjoyment each activity brings.

As a poker professional, one can study and develop edge over population and improve his winning rate.

Without a doubt, a poker player who, if you study and play correctly, gets results quickly and the money comes now. Lottery players bet many times and don't get the same return

For me, who am in love with poker, obviously poker is better. If you study a lot and play a lot in the long run you reduce the variance a lot and you can win money the lottery is just luck

A bit of a philosophical question. I have never played the lottery, well, if you do not count sports betting, although there is also a lottery here.
It is better to be a poker player, where you can learn a lot useful for life, and the lottery will not teach anything, this is my opinion)

What brings you pleasure? process or result? poker is also a process, the lottery is just an addiction to a dream, you can play both, the main thing is according to your bankroll

You can only make money in the lottery on luck. In poker, you have to think, then you can win.I think poker is cooler, as the probability of winning is higher

Unlike other gambling games, in poker players have the opportunity to influence their mathematical expectation.Poker is truly a form of gambling by definition. Poker also involves betting a certain amount of money on uncertain events/outcomes. How much you win or lose on a particular hand is out of your control, so yes, there is definitely an element of luck involved.When you play slots, roulette, lotteries, etc., the events there are random, and it does not matter who is sitting in the chair next to you. Players have no control over the outcome at all.

In the lottery, your chances of winning are slim - 1 to several hundred million, so it's a matter of luck; in poker, if you play in a large tournament with, for example, 5,000 players, your chances are much higher.
