It really depends on your religious view.  Obviously for some people it is,  for example Muslims (some groups)  if I'm not mistaken consider it a sin while for others it's not.

Even in catholic, gambling is a sin..But for those who are not following the rules too much, it is just fine to gamble though they know that it is a sin...So it depends upon you..But if the gambling that you are doing is against the rule of man or it is illegal, probably it is a big sin and definitely against the rule of God...

It is a sin if gambling make you become a bad person, like stealing your mom money or making debt that you cannot afford if you lose for gambling.

some people say it is a sin, and some do not because they are just having fun. in some countries made it illegal gambling, perhaps because the country considers that gambling is a sin, it can make people lose their minds because gambling has properties that make people addicted, but there are also some countries that consider it to be played because it is just a game

Yes there is.
Gambling is a sin in every religion. It's using a material possession to get fun. It's forbidden.
Yeah gambling is sin and if you are really religious and read carefully the bible you can see that gambling is sin.. not only in our religious and i think most of religious they are calling it as sin..

LoL! First of all Gambling is for FUN  but only people who get addicted to it make it look like a sin.

Awesome comment...
You are absolutely correct, as it should be done for fun, but mostly people get addicted to it and do it all the time, which should be considered a sin, because due to it, you lose everything which is not just yours, but it's for your family too...

Yeah, anything with which there is some lose or wasting of something beneficial to life is sin. In gambling when someone is addicted, he waste his/her time, money, health, property etc. If someone says that they are their own and they have the right to do what they want with it then I will say that when a time will come when you will remain with nothing, as a lot of people are then how can they redeem them back, So everything is of God and belong to God. He examine us, we have to use our money for good and have to respect the gifts of God to us and have to help the poor and needy with that wealth, Time and Health.

Depend on every objective.
For my case based on religion

I'm born as buddha so I'm forbid to gamble.
Ofcourse on any type of gamble because it will affect on my karma & my next generation

Things are different on my cousin that born as catholic , and their parent did not forbid him to bet as he already be warned to gamble with his own risk

The whole question is laughable. I don't judge decisions in life as a sin or opposite, but like everything else, one should keep their
gambling within a healthy space; high enough to be fun, and low enough not to pose an issue with your everyday life.
And those who do get addicted need help, not additional labeling and judgement.

I don't believe gambling is a sin according to the Bible, but the Bible does promote good stewardship of the resources God has entrusted us with and Paul says "All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything."  (1 Cor 6:12)

I think as long as you aren't addicted/mastered by gambling and as long as you aren't spending more than you are able, that it is okay.
But I think at the time when bible was revealed , gambling was not existed, are at the community where bible was revealed the gambling was not there. Yes it is, if you read the history, you will find that  in the tribe of jesus the people were not involved in gambling and that is why the bible discussed that matters to which people at there were facing.

in my country it is a sin but when i gamble just for fun and not use it for life needs so it is not. i just make money and save them if i got profit from gambling.
else the money i got from signature campagn i use it for goods that i need in internet.
no one stop for making fun but if it is not allowd just don't use it in real life. virtuel life is somethink else.
