I agree with #1 - i have no need or huge urge to play anymore...i play when i want to, and if i dont want to...i dont :E
I see it like an alchohol or drug addiction....if i need to, or want to, so much that i change my life to facilitate it then i am addicted...if i can pick and choose when i play, and how or what i play then there is no problem...? btw...when im not working and have nothing on im playing poker 24/7.... literally....48+ hour sessions ( mild contradiction or denial...im not quite sure )

I think I'm a little addicted... but not too much... I try to play almost every days at least one freeroll (cos if I need to leave it I don't lose real money) or something like a fast sit n go... But if I can't play I don't get mad... I guess I'm still not crazy! lol
Lucky for me there is no on line poker internet version is near bingo as all rigged action flops bots and bought systems. I also have high expectations so my £11.00 an hour from live play was thrown in for work at £25..00. Far less stressful, Far less idiots and far more time with the little one.

I think I am not addict to poker. The ways that coming and go to play a poker game is normal. But many people have to many others that the poker is just an way out fot those.

No addiction of any kind is good. If you think you have reached that point you must take a break, at least a short one and enjoy other things. This always helps and regenerates you plus in many cases it changes your point of view
Addicted... probably! But still I keep seeing it as a game and as long as I'm in the + I don't really care I have fun playing it, I never lose too much, I have good self control so I don't mind a little addiction!
