Hmm, I think tennis is a little more calculated than gambling. I guess you take calculated risks, but I'd like to think I have more control over the outcome than when I place a bet!

Think again, and try to comprehend the analogy. Gaming isn't pure luck. And tennis isn't all calculation.

I see what you mean, and I don't know much about gambling. But I don't see the same amount of luck being involved. I think 99% of the time the player with the greater skill wins, not because they "got on a roll" or got lucky with a few shots. What do other people think. Are tennis and gambling analogous?
