Poor concentration can often lead one into irresponsible gambling, which one may see a game that they are so confident that they will win if they place a bet, and this can of thing often makes one to easily lose control in their work, which often leads them into doing things on the wrong way just as you have highlighted. But, it will better if after working hours, one can  engage into gambling, by then everything would have normal, which will prevent the poor performance and also prevent addiction too both in gambling and in your working place.

I don't think it's possible for a gambler to make the right call with gambling prediction while working. You will be having mixed feelings of work and the way to make the right decisions. I don't think for me I will be able to pick well especially when I see big odd and a team that can't do well. Bet can be confusing, the team you think will do well migjt not do well and the other one you think will do well might end up doing bad, this is why you have to be careful.

If you are gambling do it when you are out of work, professionally it doesn't make any sense. I can't imagine a medical doctor that have patient to attend to and check their conditions will want to be doing all that. What if something goes wrong and the company finds out, you are going to lose your job and if it's a professional job like medical, you may even lose your license. Please let's be guided on jobs.

Well beside thinking about what the employee will say or do if he finds out we gamble in the middle of our work day but also we should not gamble at work because the focus is not the same as if we are playing at home and we tend to lose focus while gambling at work as there is a lot of noise usually in workplaces. When I gamble I want to be calm and to have where to express my anger if I lose a lot, you cannot do that at work unless you want to get fired.

I don't think it's a good idea. Gambling is best done in free time, when there are no important or pressing matters to attend to.

I've been there. What can I say about it? Personally, it only gets in the way. I can't concentrate on the tasks at hand. My mind is always on gambling. It's incredibly distracting. So, I've decided to never mix the two again.

Exactly, one can't serve two masters at a time as they said, gambling has its own mental stress that can drain one's life, which it requires one to focus on it if they want to gamble and not to gamble and work at a time, as it will cause havoc in their work, leading them into making mistakes in their job, that might ruined their reputation and peace because the pressure from gambling can actually make one to lose concentration, as they may be wasting time to ensure they either recover their loss or take their time to pick better odds to bet on.

In a workplace, people are paid to do their jobs well. They shouldn't be discussing unrelated topics or playing games during work hours. However, during their lunch break, people can play games and talk about whatever they want. So I think company rules are clear on this.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with gaming as a form of entertainment; for example, if someone is on their lunch break, they can use their phone to play at a casino for 10 minutes, then have lunch and return to work. As long as they always play for fun, with money they can afford to lose, and respect company rules, I don't see any problem.

Exactly, multi-tasking can be suitable for some certain things but not gambling, because a person can easily lose focus without realising it until everything goes wrong. They should be time for everything, is actually not impressive or recommendable to joke with your work (your source of income). Prioritising your work over gambling is the best thing to do because it is a constant that at the end of the month you must receive your salary, unlike gambling that you will not be able to retrieve back the money if it is loss, unless you decide to risk your money again. What the OP experience should serve as a great lesson to us, in as far as you are gambling with the aim of becoming rich, there is nothing fun in losing your money.

I will never support anyone to gamble while they are working due to the effect to the nature of the job we are doing.
Imagine someone working in the banking sector and trying to gamble during the work hour, this approach can affect the ethics of the job and if the employer find out about it, it can create a scene that can lead to sack if repeated so many times after each warnings.

I don't think it is a very smart way to do if you gamble while you work. More than likely, one of this activity will suffer. Though we know that gambling has no guarantee of winning but without focus, it can also easily mess up up your game.
