I think that it is not a sin to gamble because the people need to make there own choices and need to have there own opinion about things. If they want to gamble that is there problem.

As far as I know, gambling considered a sin in all world religions.
In addition, it falls within 4 out of 7 deadly sins.
true, but sometimes very many people who play it, to drive away their boredom, even I also sometimes always predict the score of a ball game. although it is classified as a sin, I think it also has included a hobby a person who is very difficult to stop

For gamblers is not a sin to gamble but in our religious its a sin because its money involve.. if you are reading some bible you will see it that money is evil.. this is just read it in bible but i don't really know why gambling is sin..

I don't think so that money is evil.. because everyone working for making this money only. So according to you all people are running behind evil?. Yes i agree many people are playing it because of there stress and boredom. But if any one become this gambling is there hubby it is very difficult to come out.

if talking about sin, is concerned with religion. the actual gambling a sin and is forbidden by religion.
but you are right, each has a choice, because of sin or not, that's between you and god.

If it's a sin consider me the devil. I like to play poker all the time. I however do not feel as if it is a sin because I don't do anything wrong. Just playing games which I enjoy.

How does playing for profit mean it's a sin? I mean it's a game involving money so the very idea of it is playing with and for profit.

In some religions you are not allowed to gamble with money. There are even some religions where you can charge interest on money either.

This is true but in fact I really do not think its bad because if it is your religion you should not do it.
Of course it than will be a sin.

So it's entirely subjective to what Religion you chose to follow or had grown up in your family. There is not ultimate answer to the question if it is a sin or not?

Gambling is not a sin. Life is already a gamble itself. We always choose between two or more different things which we don't know the result and that is already a gamble. The word "gambling" is characterize by many people as a bad manner or habit but gambling is a way to entertain yourself. Gambling becomes a sin if it becomes a way to hurt someone.

I think in some cultures it may be viewed as a sin. I know all most every culture and religion teaches the dangers of greed and gluttony.
That is why there so many different laws about gambling in different parts of the world.

Is gambling OK? Don't bet it! There's not an easy or instantly obvious proof text answer to that question.
why would it be a sin lol.you dont cause any harm to anyone, and its like spending money for happiness. sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. but i believe if you start spending your entire income on gambling you are hurting your family so thats heading towards sinning?

Yes it is 100%, and it is a very bad sin, and if you are into it you should stop and get out of this game, below are some Noble Verses from the Noble Quran:

Quote
"They ask thee concerning wine and gambling. Say: "In them is great sin, and some profit, for men; but the sin is greater than the profit." They ask thee how much they are to spend; Say: "What is beyond your needs." Thus doth God Make clear to you His Signs: In order that ye may consider-  (The Noble Quran, 2:219)"

"O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling, (dedication of) stones, and (divination by) arrows, are an abomination,- of Satan's handwork: eschew such (abomination), that ye may prosper.  Satan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you, with intoxicants and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of God, and from prayer: will ye not then abstain?   (The Noble Quran, 5:90-91)"

I don't consider it a sin. This is the free world. Let people do what they want with their money and time. If you kill people it is a sin, but gambling? Greed is just a human emotion, it's can be bad, but a sin? Nope.

Why would it be a sin, I consider gambling as fun and enjoying and its not a sin at all, maybe if its forbidden by your religion its a sin but other than that its not.

Yes, gambling is a sin. But better don't think and talk about sin on gambling, gambling is for fun and no need care about the sin, but if you scare about sin and hell, better you not gambling.
