Its surprising to see the poll at the same %, 42.1% for both 1h and 2-5h, I would have thought that not many people would fall into the 2-5h slot but I guess you can't underestimate addiction. Or maybe boredom?

You have to remember, if kids are bored, they would spend hours on their phones or playing console games or even watching

TV. Adults on the other hand, will use gambling as a way of entertainment and to burn some time.  (Yes, some adults still

play games)  Grin  The difference between kids and adult games is the money they win or lose on gambling.  Cool

IMO such a separation relating to different entertainment based on the age isn't exactly accurate. I think this is more about an environment, hormones and individual needs, maybe even genes determine craving for certain games (there was even a study about that https://www.bionews.org.uk/page_91056), as there are adults, that are okay with watching TV, news and alike - it's their amusement, on the other hand there are kids that would prefer playing hazardous games, cards, where they can feel the sweetness of victory. Take Monopoly, for instance - a typical game which proves that from the very childhood kids want to play games that involve money and power. I bet some schoolboys would enjoy playing poker if they knew the rules and would've bet everything they owned.

I play online gambling in less than 1 hour because I don't have free time every day, so I decide not to play gambling for a long time. besides that, if I am playing gambling for a long time, it can make me become an addicting person, and I can spend more money. I don't know about the other, but I feel that if I am playing gambling for more than 1 hour, I am feeling not right and I need to get out of the site.
I think that it is not too much difficult to find time for playing online gambling, you can play online gambling even if you are in your office. I can see a lot of people who are regularly play online gambling while they are in their offices, during their duty time.

I spent most of my free time on online gambling site, but only a small part of that time I used to gamble. Most of the time I use to chat with other users, especially users from my country. And to be honest, I have fun talking to them even though I don't know them personally.
I think yes, online gambling has changed the situation too much. Now you have always chance to play gambling online. You can play it at any time.  Therefore it is right to say that we cannot count the time for which we play gambling on even on daily bases.

I spent a little time playing gambling online every day in less than an hour, because I wasn't addicted to gambling, so I avoided things that could make me feel addicted because the gambling I did was just looking for fun and trying luck from it.

I play online gambling can take up to two more hours, even though it is entertainment but I do not want to go wrong so I lose my money too much, so I remain careful in determining the strategy and hope to make a profit with what I am work

Just change strategies every 20 minutes and use low profitable ones. You'll be fine.

Hours will be wrong word for me. It is less than an hour now and sometimes no game even for weeks. I am very much busy with my regular work. One thing I always try to cover are big tournaments especially the free ones. Smiley
That is enough for having entertainment with the help of gambling. This way you are enjoying as well as keeping yourself safe from real financial troubles. Gambling is fun only if played in limits. Moreover, if you will have more free time than now, it is a possibility that you might end up becoming an addict which is not a good thing at all.
Yes but if the person can set up limit for yourself, he/she doesn't gamble even if he/she has 7/24 free time.

I don't even play less than 1 hour a day, I only gamble every few days, usually around a half hour each time. There's simply things that are more interesting to me when I'm bored, like gaming, and I've never been into gambling a lot like some people are. I mainly play for the rush, and I don't usually gamble large amounts. I have better ways to have fun, and I like to use my time productively. I'm not one to sit still.

8.7% is in group 5-8 hours, that's my group lol.  I enjoy playing, play with low stakes, and .5% to 1% edge allows for lots of wagering.

I was just thinking how much time people spend on gambling sites on a daily basis? I bounce back and forth between work

and household activities, but in my spare time, I like to chill with a beer in hand and doing some casual gambling. I do this

while watching TV, so it is part of my entertainment time.  Wink  Do you think, time spend on gambling is linked to gambling

addiction? Let's discuss this.  Wink

For me, gambling is some sort of entertainment and should only be done during our vacant time. Don't get too addicted to it because it will affect your daily routine and even worse, lose a lot of money.
Yeah some players even spend all their time in gambling, maybe today you can win but maybe tomorrow you will lose. don't waste your time just to spend money on gambling, you're right because gambling must be for enternainment, so use gambling only in your free time..

I'm not into it as I used to be. I used to spend perhaps 30 minutes a day. Now I might spend 30 minutes a week if that Smiley

Very good improvements. When you know gambling is only for entertainment then you can also find other ways to get entertainment.

Depends, if i have so much coins in my balance, i can stay 2-5 hours in a day but if i don't have so much coins in my balance i usually only gamble 1 hour but i choose option 2.

Even one hour per day gambling can lead you to addict to these games. So it is not advised to gamble every day. From your above statement, it looks like you already addicted because if you got funds then want to gamble for five hours. Now is the time for you to learn how to restrict your gambling habit and reduce your gambling losses.

I remember the when I gamble the hours I spent in playing is almost 12 hours, quite long isn't? It is because I only play with the dice game, I just put my money in there and leave it for a moment. I only bet a small amount in order to be sure that it will not lose an instant. And I leave it as long as I want but of course, I still monitor it just to be sure that my money won't depletes if I lose.

Now this let us understand a general and broader view of gambler mindset that he is always ready to not embrace big loss. You know it very well that as more you would play, more you would be losing your money. When you are quite aware of this basic concept and nature of gambling then why you keep on being foolish through these house owners. Open your eyes brothers.

Gambling is not a daily thing, it is more like a weekend gateaway type of deal (not on weekends every time obviously). I don't gamble for a while and than when I want to I just sit in front of my PC and just pick games after games to gamble and spend hours upon hours just gambling and I put myself a limit to lose so when I hit that I leave. After years of gambling I know that I won't win in gambling but I can make my losing a lot time taking thing than usual so that way I will gamble for hours with just 20 dollars and still have most of it with me when I am done with gambling.

Certainly the time spent with gambling is indirectly proportional the time taken for getting addicted to it. The more the time you are gambling the quicker you will be addicted. This has been discussed here for thousand times but I am not seeing gamblers are taking necessary steps to protect themselves.

Controlled way of gambling or keeping everything under control methodology must deal with the time factor at very first. But people start "these controls" with money and do gamble without any restrictions. That is the point where they are vulnerable to get addicted.

I think some of them feels bored in the game because they cannot win a big money. but there will be people that only want to enjoy the game only without thinking about the result of the game. I am playing gambling in less one hour and I think it's not because I am bored but it because I don't want to spend my free time in the gambling game only. I think it is better to use my free time to get relax beside playing gambling.
