No, I'm not addicted to poker. I love to play poker but I also enjoy other things in life. The things that make you happy aren't addictive.

Hi
For me, poker is just entertainment, I may not play if I'm not in the mood or I'm tired. I have no addiction to the game and I am more than sure that I will never have such an addiction.
Good luck :)

In a sense, yes, but I know how to control myself (with rare exceptions:D) - I know how not to make unnecessary rebuys, I know how to quit when I understand that my nerves and heart are playing instead of my brain.

I play 30-40 poker tournaments a day, mostly free ones. I had money in my poker account but my life made me withdraw everything. Now I'm trying to make money from scratch. Playing 12 hours a day, seven days a week, and still wanting to play, I think it's still a habit or an easy stage of addiction.

I was once a poker addict (I played for hours and even didn't sleep or woke up at dawn to play), today I have mastery and I know when and how long I should play, excess brings disastrous consequences

I play for fun, and therefore poker is just a hobby for me and I have no addiction to the game. I sympathize with players who can't control themselves and lose money, it's a sad story.

I'm a poker addict, but I don't play when I don't have money, unless you count free tournaments :D
I have no addiction to the game. I can easily take a break anytime, for a week or more, but without poker I just get bored. For me, poker is entertainment and a great antidote to boredom.

No, I'm not. There were times when I didn't play for a month and I didn't miss it.
It's been just one of many hobbies for a while now.

For a while it was becoming an addiction, but I managed to control it and didn't let it happen, I had to put a lot of willpower on my part.

I don't think I'm addicted, but I need a weekly dose of poker. My answer is contradictory, isn't it?

Adiction is a serious question in poker or any other bames that involves money
Poker is a fun game and can bring also profits, so it is easy to slip on the addiction side...
As long as one loses only the money can afford, and he doesn't prioritise poker over other human activities,it's not addiction imo
