Gambling is the wagering of something of value on a random event for the intent of winning something else of value. It is often associated with a game of chance, but can also be conducted using things of monetary value that are not money (such as marbles in a game of roulette, or collectible card and trading game pieces in Magic: The Gathering). The main reasons for gambling are to win money, socialise, gain an adrenaline rush, and escape worries and stress. However, some people develop gambling addictions which can have serious consequences and cause financial damage as well as harm to personal relationships.
