Gambling is a huge addiction problem. Your comment is like saying someone that occasionally smokes cocaine isn't addicted so cocaine isn't addictive.

I think a more apt comparison might be that it's like saying an actor who has played roles which involve them pretending to snort cocaine isn't addicted so acting in roles that involve the portrayal of drug use isn't addictive.

We weren’t gambling. Nobody won or lost anything.

What were the chips for, then? How did you determine a result to the session?

		The chips were to determine the winner of the game. Then when the game was over we put all the chips back. The winner walked away with nothing more than what they arrived with. The losers walked away with exactly what they arrived with. If you think getting to say “I won” is gambling, then we have nothing to discuss.

		By that measure playing Monopoly is gambling.
