Are most famous poker players compulsive gamblers?

[HPG ADMIN]

There are tons of poker players who make prop bets (proposition bets) with each other. Like Ted Forrest and Phil Ivey will play golf and bet more on 1 shot than the best professional golfers make in a year. I wonder if this is due to a need to gamble or because they have so much money that the bet doesn't mean much to them.
