Sometimes a person does not think that he has really hooked on gambling. in fact, addicted to gambling is not about spending money, and stop when they want, but how often they return. if your friend often go back to gamble, then of course he is one of those who are addicted to gambling.
Yes we can think of him as addicted but it is not bad thing if he have control on himself. That addiction is harmless but if he is spending his money and losing all of his money and he do not care then it is dangerous and it will destroy his life. yes that is very right to say that gambling is not a bad thing but the way through which we play gambling is not correct. as most of the gambler do not have any strategy and planning for gambling therefore for most of the time they cannot make money and even lose their own money.

You can be addicted to something without spending money. Just look at video games or something.
You have point on that. Even we dont spend our money in gambling its still a gambling.

I think he is not that so addicted to gambling, yeah he do play everyday but just in few hours as you said and he doesn't spend his own money so meaning to say he still have control on himself. He uses only the payment he got from a signature campaign, maybe he is just doing it as pastime

maybe it's the first time to your friend to have such as entertainment like that you cant say that a man is a addicted on a gambling if he only play just for fun as long as he's not spending a lot of money and his life is not endangered he is not addicted to it. maybe you can say that man is a on YOLO stage where he want to have a fun at all

It depends. even without using his money, without using most of his time, sometimes it can be considered as nearing addiction. With the words "almost every day" that is a sign already that his friend is already dedicating some time to it. Maybe this time it is not yet an addiction, but sooner or later, when he don't change or he is still playing even if it is almost pointless to be there, then he is addicted already.

No, it doesn't mean that if we play gambling daily than we become addicted person in future, Because in my thinking, if we waste our money and time without any thinking, than may be we will be addicted. But if we know our limit and not waste our money and than do play gambling daily, So it doesn't a sign of addiction. We do many work daily because these works are part of our life, but it has no mean we will be addicted person of these work in future.

My close friend is 50 years old. He's never been addicted to anything throughout his life. His friend made a poker website and now he keeps playing there a lot. he also uses some free tickets to tournaments he gets from betcoin.ag signature campaign. He plays almost every day for a few hours. And he became more nervous in general. But he doesn't think he's addicted and his argument for that is that he can stop playing for a day or two (that's true) and he doesn't spend his own money on it at all. Would you call such a man addicted?
Hes confident enough to play on constant basis because he knows hes not using his own money to play gambling and he fully depends on his friend but the question is what if his friend would lost that gambling site?Then for sure he would not play anymore on free but he would need money to play poker and also if he play for longer period of time then possibilities of a gambling addict is very high and im sure hes already an addict.

Yes you can precisely say that a person who play is addicted in gambling eventhough the person doesn't use his personal money in betting because most of his time are being spend to online games or gambling. He might probably lose focus on some important matters or things that might benefit him like studying, family matters same goes on being active on his environment.

Based upon the quote from OP it's clear that he haven't used his hard-earned money for the purpose of gambling as well he has the ability to give a break to it after continued use of gambling. So I don't think he's completely addicted.
In other words, that person is not an addict gambler, he is only playing gambling as one of his amusement, isn't right? to be honest, he's still a normal player in the gambling because He knows when to stop, and knows how to control himself on which a person who is addicted into gambling can't do that.

If he's not spending his own money on it, then to me it is more like playing a video game. It's basically harmless but I guess if someone played a video game, watched tv, played golf, etc. all the time, you could say they are addicted to it.

When you cant control yourself in playing something then that is an addiction, although he only use free money for now, but someday he can use his money to gamble, because he already addicted to gambling, i think you better find another hobby for him

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do you know? You're right though, gambling is bad especially when the Gambler doesn't have any idea on how to stop making mistakes.

i dont think so that he is some sort of addicted to gambling. in the first place he does not spend his own penny just to play and gamble. second is that he can stop whenever he wants to. he has this self control. as long everytime he plays, it does not interfere in his daily life or activity.. just basing in the explanation below, i dont think his addicted. when we say addiction, it is a condition that results when a person engages in an activity (e.g., gambling, sex, shopping) that can be pleasurable but the continuation of which becomes compulsive and interferes with ordinary responsibilities and concerns... https://www.psychologytoday.com/basics/addiction

Let him decide for himself. If he thinks that he isn't addicted then let him believe on it. And with the proof that he can stop for a day or two because most of the addicted gamblers cannot stop even for a day. I guess he is just fine but when it comes to his emotion, he should be careful if most of the he becomes nervous.

In this world every person at his level is addicted with a particular thing . Here that person aged 50 year is also addicted to toward the gambling . I know that he is still.like a newbie in the Field to make gambling But in actual I now that he is now gamblers and I think he will never left gambling Because in the gambling everyone enter for short time or for small fun but they got addicted and can't cames out of such types of the traps . So here no doubt that he is fully addicted with gambling .

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do you know? You're right though, gambling is bad especially when the Gambler doesn't have any idea on how to stop making mistakes. That's one thing and when one doesn't know his responsibilities and always involves into gambling. There are people who forget their responsibilities due to addiction. The person quoted by Op is perfect in his responsibilities, so I don't think he is addicted.

That's right, help him to find another hobby, hobbies are fun and can spend a lot of time. Help with finding a hobby that can be made of two or more, so you can always take her new hobby when he was lazy or forgot. If he really wanted to quit, you probably will not have too much difficulty in finding him a new hobby, patience is very important here. If you give up, he will also be more difficult again to stop.

Family support is really need for addicted gambler since nobody can't change gambler behavior except their family Religion fundamental also take an effort for gambler's mental recovery against gambling although it's require time but it's possible !
