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!

That is the attractive of lottery. It is to attract people by it huge payout while you only need to risk very little. The odd is ridiculous low so you dont expect much from it and even if you lose you wont feel the pain. That is why some people love lottery a lot.

thats why many people played and trying their luck its a one hit big time deal, if you win you will be rich right away if you lose
you will keep on buying tickets not realizing that you are already spending too much money from it, and that's why it is also
consider gambling because of risking our money to bet for it.
The problem with this type of lottery is that, even though they are fair, suppose you are playing with 100 numbers and hence your chances of winning is 1% and payout would be 99x ( keeping 1% for house ) now suppose you loose 20 times, you will get frustrated and gamble higher while your chances are yet 1% only.

Even if you buy a lot of tickets you still just gamble with a higher probability. The result (who wins) is contingent and unpredictable. So how can this not be gambling? And, yes, I think you'll (or already are in a way) get addicted to it. So I strongly recommend you not to start. I remember reading once that a chance of winning a lottery is lower than the chance you won't be killed by something while going to buy tickets.

Here in my country there are a lot of types of lottery and most of the people are loving the so called Keno lottery.

Because the result of that lottery will just come out for the few minutes and yes are gambling and wants fast results of the game.

So that when they lose, they will bet again with that lottery.

Actually gambling is the core of gambling and its the oldest form of gambling, I can still remember when I was a kid around 10 years old there was a lottery my relatives used to participate in.
They all the time used to do so and hence I think gambling or matka is the oldest form of gambling.

putting money in lottery with buying lottery tickets is wasteful, that's what that is Smiley

i even go as far as saying you are better off playing dice games on a provably fair site. because you have control over everything and you can change the chance of winning, you can increase the multiplier to mimic the situation with lotteries or decrease it to have a better chance. and do it all in a provably fair place where you can check if it was your luck or not.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Thats  why  people  are   keep  on  betting  on  lottery     because  of  hoping  of  becoming rich  in an instant  but  the chances are too slim   in  my own  view  0.01% chance Smiley  Putting  up money  on lottery  is definitely gambling as  we all know  all forms  of  risking your money to get  money  is  gambling.

Puttin money in a lottey is most risked gambling than other kinds of gambling like in casinos or in sports betting.Because there are so many buyers of lottery tickets and just selected ones win it,and i dont believe in it if any one wins specially i dont because i dont consider myself that much lucky.

Buying lottery is also consider gambling as you are using the money to buy a chance of getting a bigger return. And gamble is usually associate with negative returns and lottery in fact has one of the highest house edge so you will tend to lose more than you win.
But in gambling one thing is sure and that is that one of the members of the lottery will surely win the collected money so it depends on the luck of the people who are collected in a lottery and that person who will be with a high luck will earn the lottery.

Yes putting money in lottery is also gambling it is a type of gambling in which you bet your money for others money and no one will know who will win the lottery. The same happen in the end that one win the money and the other one lose all of his money to him.
Lottery though sometimes can be seen as different from gambling, since lottery is a sort of game where we are playing with many players while gambling is something that just needs luck. In lottery maybe you can buy more tickets and higher your chances, yet I think its lottery since it also needs luck.

I think it is a gamble, and when you play something and risking something in it, meaning you're gambling. so when you put money in the lottery, I think you're gambling, especially if you win, I think you'll get a prize very much because the stakes

some gambling bitcoin sites allow loterry betting btw Wink
I know that but I usually do not play it, that is not entertaining for me and a waste of money. I wan't to achieve success in a slowly but sure way and I am willing to go through the right process.

Honestly, I am more having interest in doing parlay bets than lottery, a 1,000 odds with a good payout is like a lottery, but at least you will have fun capping games.
Yes, actually parlay bets are much much better than lottery since we can determine using our knowledge that which team would win, while lottery is pure luck, yes and we cannot actually hope of winning while with sports as soon as each sports gets settled we get nearer and nearer.

I am also fun of that and actually I won once in my life (as of now), and it give you more thrill when your team are winning and you are just like calculating again and again your payout win. Really a good experience, but I guess lottery are more bigger as you can win hundred of millions in lottery.

Lottery really have a very big jackpot price and you are a damn very lucky person if you win that even just once in your lifetime because as what they are saying: you have more chances of getting hit by a lightning than a chance of winning a lottery. Sports betting has more chance of winning but not as big as lottery winnings - I would rather go for sports betting than lottery though!

Yes I agree that sports betting has a higher percentage of winning and you can always win as long as your familiar with the team in sports.. I believe there's a higher price in bets that can be offered abd not as high as in lottery. Like here in country lottery can offer as high 100 million in our currency.

There is nothing to say contrary in this regard because putting money in lottery is also gambling. I will go one step further by saying anything where you put your money at stake whether it is small amount or less and you purposes to win more that is purely gambling. People don't consider buying lottery tickets as gambling but reality is reality.

Lottery is for sure gambling when you buy any lottery ticket you spend money in case of not winning you simply loose money and there is nothing to get back in return. This is gambling too where you win or loose in the end as there no middle state. Lottery works same then why it can be different than gambling.

Absolutely! Putting money in lottery is gambling too. The lottery result is unpredictable.
