Re: Is poker gambling?
These posts are usually looking for some one to say: Its ok, poker is not gambling.
Dont think any one can do that for you Jack.
If you like you can try this though:
If i pay $20 to play ten pin bowling im gonna get 1 hour worth of "fun" and then i go home. $20 light
If i pay $20 to play tournement poker i can have anywhere between 2mins and 8+ hours worth of fun and i might get my money back or win a couple of thousand $.Or go home $20 light
They are both games.
In one you`re playing at rolling a ball at some pins **YAWN**
In the other you`re playing at gamboling with tokens.
In one game there`s a possibility you get more than you started with
in the other you get the feeling there is more to life....
