Yea lottery is gambling also but it is most ulprobably unfair game which i ever see.In my country on tv news i saw how they are scamming with lotter and bwcause of that i nevef play lottery.
Yes, they see the number that has been sold less overall and then declare that number as a winner. I think these dice gambling is 100 times better than than those lottery. At least we know all we loose is because of our luck and not been cheated.
of course dice is better because it is easier to win even though you can only win smaller amount of money with it, lottery is also gambling and it is one of the worst gambling games

Why worst? because you are likely have chances to be hit by lightning than winning a mega lotto. This is just to add to how it is hard to win the lotto yet we keep on buying lotto tickets thinking that it is just a small money with very big prize - it then become a habit - daily buying of lotto tickets.
And for sure there are no assurance that the games in lottery are not rigged, maybe they will just hire a people to testify that they have won millions to invite the interest of many people to join the lottery, I really don't trust that thing considering the low chance of winning.

Hahha, I see that you have been deceived by a trick like that. It is true that there is a person who performs the way it aims to get the attention of the majority of gamblers and will definitely do a very game system more lucrative fraudulent or home edge.

Lottery is not a second form of gambling because it in itself is gambling already. Putting your money on games of chances is gambling because you risk your money on things that you don't have any control in

you pay a fee to enter by buying a ticket or one of those scratchers and then you never win. you always face loss and see someone else that you can not even be sure if it is legit or not wins the lottery and you become depressed.

I remember in one of the tv news station saying that you are more likely get struck by a lightning than winning a lottery. Of course, this is true because the odds is way against your favor. This is really worst form of gambling but most of the people betting lottery seems expecting already that they will not win and can bear the losses.

Of course it is gambling. It is under the gaming and lottery commission in some parts of the country so why would it not be considered gambling?
You give your money for a ticket to try and win something out of it.
Isn't receipt of the prize not taking a gamble? Huh

Hello everyone, so I joined freebitcoin about a week ago, I can afford to buy around 500-1000 lottery tickets. But when I see last round the first winner has just 120 tickets but other winners got 10000+ tickets, if I buy around 1000 tickets, will it be worth and is it like gambling? Will it be addictive? Guys please tell me that lottery is second form of gambling or not?

It is purely Luck based gambling, their is no strategy to win the Lottery. Everything is on luck based , ya if you have got any inside information on which number is going to win is separate thing.

But you are talking about freebitco.in site and that site is purely scam, as till now no one has claimed that they have won the lottery form this forum. Who ever have claimed are the newbie who just opened the account and their first post is they have won it. From this you can know that newbie account is a site alt account to show the users that they are genuine.

lottery is just another form of gambling. though it has more high risk and low return. and it is addictive. if you find yourself preoccupied it, or gamble rather than work or sleep then it's its time to reevaluate if this has become an addiction. and when it is, just walk away man, while you still can.

Where ever high returns and unassuming of income is their , it is considered as gambling. Lottery is the old gambling which is used to be played long time before also. Be care full just dont invest in freebitcoin for lottery as it is manipulated by the site owners. Older players are never got any winning share of Lottery.

It is, kind of. You're risking money with a low chance to win. However, becoming greedy in lotteries is harder than in casino gambling because the win doesn't really come fast (you put in your ticket and you have to wait DAYS for the result). Therefore, for those having problems with controlling themselves, lottery might be another option.

Yes lottery is a gambling too.. you're betting your money with a low chance of winning. Your prediction is the key and a pure luck to win. It's one in a million for you to win and many people here in my country is very addictive in lottery because of the grand prize amount.

I think as far as the game is money involve we can say it gambling so lottery you are buying ticket and waiting if you hits the exact digit or jackpot to make win a large amount of money.. so for me its still gambling..

You will surely lose in lottery than win - you get more chances of being hit by lighting than winning the jackpot in lottery. My advice is that, better save that money that you regularly buy for lottery tickets and don't get jealous by very lucky winners because even they themselves can't believe why they won after all Smiley

Yes lottery is a gambling too.. you're betting your money with a low chance of winning. Your prediction is the key and a pure luck to win. It's one in a million for you to win and many people here in my country is very addictive in lottery because of the grand prize amount.

You will surely lose in lottery than win - you get more chances of being hit by lighting than winning the jackpot in lottery. My advice is that, better save that money that you regularly buy for lottery tickets and don't get jealous by very lucky winners because even they themselves can't believe why they won after all Smiley
yeah its a matter of pure luckif we are talking about winning coming from a lotto draw but because of the big pot money many people are really
participating and keep buying the ticket and because of that it is still consider as a gambling for your luck.

The lottery means it's like a jackpot. Those who born lucky he will win this game. Yes, here the investment is small and the profit is too high. If you win the lottery, you will become rich in a single night. But you have to wait for a long time. And there is not sure that you will win the lottery once in your lifetime. So if you have trust in your luck play the lottery or else better stay away.

That is so correct there mate. In lottery, even if how much tickets are you going to buy, you are not guaranteed any winning at all and your chances of winning to lottery is very very slim - you are likely getting hit by lightning than winning the lottery jackpot. However, if you win that jackpot, then you are a heck of a very lucky person! Smiley

Yes playing lottery is definitely a form of gambling but it's the least damaging one in my opinion and also hardest to win but if you win it means you are rich

Lottery is gambling too since its involved risking money even in the smallest one and we need luck too to win this kind of gambling. It likes we bet on dice gambling sites at higher payout like 9900x or so! The chance to win it very small but when you hit it you are rich!
