I don’t know if I’m really staying my points well but I wish to know if people really have to gamble without intentions of making money?

I think most people gamble for money, not many gamble just for fun, especially if they gamble online

Nobody likes losing, this applies to anything, not just gambling. I think, although there are people who gamble for fun, they won't be happy if they lose. If he loses often, then he should stop gambling because there is no fun anymore, but if he continues to gamble then he is gambling for money, he is chasing his losses.

So I agree that most people gamble for money, not for fun. I think the figure is more than 80%, maybe more than 90% but this is just my opinion, I don't have any data

The intention to make money will always be there but there's also the fun part where entertainment like sports will be enhanced because you put some money on the line.

Let's give it an example.
Watch a basketball game without any bet? Sure, it will be fun watching the game especially if you players lob the ball for an alley-oop dunk. That will be awesome.
Now try to put money for that team who will do the alley-oop. I bet you will jump on your seat not because of the talent they showed but because they made two points that will help you get near to win the bet that you made and it will also boost the energy of his teammates to play better.
The game becomes "great" from "good". I mean, if you are a fan of basketball it will always be a fun and entertaining game but adding some spice into it will change something. And that's sports gambling.
But don't misunderstood it, we do play for fun but we also have the goal to win, money comes first of course and that's why we try to analyze the game up to the smallest details to enhance that winning chance.

Most people are usually like that they gamble to make money and I think the percentage is greater than just for fun. This doesn't mean that people who enjoying gambling don't want to make a profit, but rather that they have fun while looking for a profit.
Actually, gambling can make money if you can use it well and use accurate skills, but yes, this is not easy because most people experience losses even though they have used their skills, so to be honest, most people bet to make money under the pretext of just having fun.

The title is definitely not the right one. I think the better one is this.

"Do people truly risk their money on bets for profit?"

Thought as much and thanks for the suggestion as most times, tittles are difficult to generate and that’s why I go straight to passing my message before getting a suitable title for it.

And I also agree with you that those who gamble for fun are those who are trying gambling out and not the other way round.

Basically, we all have our own definitions of fun, even in the games that people play ordinarily where they can't earn real money from them. For the sake of fun, most people spend money on tools that will enable them to play video games, which, at the end of the day, they won't get any money from playing but rather derive only the satisfaction they get (fun) and spend their free time doing what they like.

I get your point mate and I also agree with you that we all have our definitions of fun but in this context, we’re talking about betting and gambling and for anyone who sakes money on a game they can watch and still have fun without betting is solely doing so to earn money.

Some people risk gambling to make money, while others gamble just for fun. If you want to gamble, only use the money you can afford.
That is the key to gambling so you don't gamble too much. We know that gambling is only for fun and not to earn or make money.
If that had been our goal in gambling, we would not have used a lot of money. You can continue gambling as long as you can enjoy the gambling game sufficiently. But if not, you should start reducing your gambling activities.

From my opinion, I think there isn’t any need to stake or risk one’s money on a game simply because you want to catch fun when you could simply not risk your money and still have fun while watching same game.

Bets are what makes watching games become even more exciting rather than just watching it without betting just because you enjoy the game and it's your favorite one. That thrilling feeling you'll get on whether or not you're gonna win the bet is what makes your watching experience fun and exciting. But of course, that all depend on the person on how he wants to enjoy the game. Some people doesn't like gambling and some does.
When a person wants to gamble, one of the primary intention is always to make money while having fun all at the same time. However, things could turn the other way around if luck doesn't want to choose your side.

Using money to gamble is also part of the fun; losing is also part of the fun; and even winning is also part of the fun. If you are a gambler and you gamble all the time, win all the time, and you are certain you will always win all your games, and it happens that way, the level of excitement that each winning will give you will start to reduce the more you continue winning without losing any game and feeling the pain of losing.

Without going much further, I gladly tell you that both the fun and the potential winnings that could come from the game are the reasons why the gambling industry is booming today. The majority are there for what they could win out of it, and others are also there for the joy they derive from gambling.

It's always going to be about making money and those "bets" just for fun are those who are just trying out gambling. I think that's the reason for people trying it but avid gamblers probably want to profit and not gamble just for fun. There's definitely intention IMO.

I came across a recent topic where the op was saying over 80% of gamblers gamble to make money and I had to have a dip thought on that and was curious as to know if there are possibilities that people gamble just for the sake of answering the name gambler?

Quote from: kenshi222 on February 13, 2024, 01:51:24 PM

Nearly eighty percentage of the gamblers are doing gambling for the money making.

From my opinion, I think there isn’t any need to stake or risk one’s money on a game simply because you want to catch fun when you could simply not risk your money and still have fun while watching same game.
