IF you play Roulette, you know that you will lose over the long run... that is inevitable. Yet almost anyone would state that playing roulette is a form or gambling.

People who play roulette do so because of the variance. They dig the action. That is gambling.
When the house plays roulette, it does so despite the variance (and because of the EV). I would say that when the house is playing roulette, it is not really gambling.
But words, shmurds. It doesn't really matter whether you call something gambling or not. A rose by any other name . . .
