If you decide when play or not. Isn't an addiction but if you don't decide this. Sorry but you are a poner addict. Some addiction stars slowly and you can stopped at time. But the poker is a great
addiction. A lovely addiction

I am playing poker in my free time , and just to relax , till now I did not deposit money , I am trying to learn and practice more , maybe later on I will make a deposit , lets say that I dont consider myself addicted ..

Addiction is when you can't stop when you lose more than you can afford!

 

[korneel]

It took my a while to notice; But I'm pretty sure I'm addicted.
I sometimes play more than 2 hours than I wanted to play.

 

[Fastone2]

I think about playing poker, even when I am working. So, I know that my interest in poker is strong. Maybe I am addicted...

If your desire to make money out weighs your desire to learn and win the game. Then you are addicted, and you'll never get anywhere.

 

[mvrkaus]

Play poker, don't let poker play you. -mvrkaus2017 😂

 

[Diegol]

I think i might be addict but i don't have a gambling addiction

 

[tomatientje]

Is denial of addiction a sign that you are?

Poker might be addictive, when you deny an addiction, is it the first sign that you might be addicted?

Good one, I might have this problem at some level.

 

[tomatientje]

Addiction is a vague concept. You can lose all the money? If not, then it's not an addiction.

But what if you loose your friends, you will get new ones once you're rich, but what about your real friends?

 

[tomatientje]

I think I'm addicted, y played all elementary tournaments possible in pokerstars in just 14 days, is that wrong?

It's wrong when you hurt anyone, like your partner by neglect, or your friends, if not? No problem!

 

[vitalii029]

playing poker you always put yourself according to every person who, though not a lot know how to play poker and who ever in your life what is win at poker you need to keep within reasonable limits my addiction to the game

 

[vitalii029]

dependency is every person but it should be easy to keep within a reasonable and then this relationship will not make you problems in life

 

[Diegol]

Well is 1 of the 7 steps and is the first one but also could be that you are really not addicted

 

[mr_poker]

I do not consider myself dependent because I only play in my spare time

 

[Rollex]

Becomes hard to spend money (cash) whan you lost - that is a big problem.

 

[MEJ]

I'd say more are addicted than would care to admit

 

[Tsar4i]

When I am at home, I almost always play poker

 

[anwis]

I usually play on the weekends, unfortunately on weekdays there is no time due to work

 

[Syltan]

At this stage of life, I am definitely independent, but 2-3 years ago my answer was not so sure.

 

[vitalicharniak]

For some players, poker becomes a job or at least an interesting hobby that brings in additional income, but there are also those players for whom the game becomes a serious problem.

 

[alan moises]

I just play for fun because I do not have much money to spend there either

 

[HADESO86]

No I do not think. I just love to play in your free time. If you have money you will play with pleasure, if the balance is zero then you can wait for better times)

 

[Emixilian]

I think if you make money and you get to live by poker it s not really an addiction... its like calling your job an adiction :thumbdown: The meaning of adiction is a negative one .. so you cant be addicted to poker just by being harmfull to you (loosing money, waste to much time and dont focus on other parts of your life) . You have to be balanced in life :five: gl
