Poker is a game of both skill and luck. You'd probably already know this if you had anything resembling skill in poker though.

The fact poker can be zero sum doesn't mean it cant be gambling.

it can become gambling. But the existence of an optimal strategy, whereby your opponents cannot have a positive EV against you, makes it a skill game by definition imho.

play poker instead of casino games


They will both lead you to losing money imo...
Probably. I don't think I've ever heard of an actual success story where a gambling addict turns his life around by playing poker. I'd guess there's a selection bias among people who choose to play poker where they're probably much less likely to be addicts. Poker takes a long time to play through in most instances, especially if there's an initial buy-in and last man standing takes all (well, unless you do something really dumb, I guess) -- with a large table, you can still have high stakes and a relatively low buy-in. $20 can last you a couple hours and still feel engaging, no problem.

ETA: OTOH, poker tends to punish greed, so... maybe.

Yeah i've not heard of any stories either tbh.  However...poker connects with you in a far more positive way vs games that cant be beat, i think gamblers would find it a lot harder to make bad betting decisions after a few years of poker therapy.

Of course maybe not. What kind of gamble that is if you always win? So boring.

You have no ideas of your chances at most of gambling. you do know them at roulette and again electronic ones can cheat.

Yes extremely risky! rather be safe and invest your btc and almost guarantee a profit than gamble and have a 50/50 chance of winning
