It's a matter of opinion. In my personal opinion, gambling isn't in and of itself bad, but it's something that tends to be addictive, so it can lead to problems for many people.

Answer:

Not if you're careful with money and don't let it turn to addiction, it's fine.

Answer:

Well, actually "everything is ok in moderation" is an opinion also. Not EVERYTHING is ok, even in moderation. But there are actual verifiable facts regarding gambling that indicate gambling may be something bad to get into. For instance, in the years since there have been casinos near Memphis, bankruptcy rates have tripled or quadrupled.

Why are cards considered a sin by some religions?

Two reasons I know of. 1. Cards were used in many gambling games. Because gambling addictions can be extremely destructive, many Christians preached out against gambling and card games. Although card games don't have to involve gambling, they still got a bad rap just by association. 2. Cards were used in divination, which also gave them a bad rap. Of course, anything can be used for divination by someone who really wants to try, so this argument is also moot.
