Maybe I'd be shameful if I'd continue my life with gambling. I'm playing just for adrenaline and enjoy. But in my country, gamblers are seen as shameful people.

It is true that many consider it as a bad habit but why do I have to care what do they think ?
Personnally, I consider it as a passion or a hobby, like any other hobby ; Sport, Music, Painting ...
This is my passion, and this is where I have fun. I am loosing a lot of money because of gambling and as a student it causes many problems but I know how to manage my budget.

My answer is no, why would I be shameful. I guess it's not a sin and I am not committing a crime either, for others who think gambling is very dangerous, that would only mean that they are not responsible enough to engage in a risky game. What I see is that bitcoin is a form of entertainment and based on experience, I enjoy doing it, so it's not a sin to have fun when you are not hurting others.
I think there is no embarrassing word because what is done there is no one in disadvantage, gambling in my opinion is only pleasure and no one in disadvantage and win or lose only I who enjoy so for what shame and gambling is not a shameful and open sin harm people or make people feel humiliated.

Go guys!
In many cultures and countries is gambling consider as a bad thing which only the poorest and silliest ones do. Many gamblers try to hide that they gamble from their friends and families and feel really shameful for that. Do you consider gambling as a bad thing? Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler? If it is shame what you feel what do you about it? How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?
Let others know!

Nothing to be ashame if you gamble only occasionally and to entertain yourself. But when gambling became your vice and started to affect you financially including your family, then you be ashamed for bieng an irresponsible person.

Yeah all the time, i'm feeling shame because gamble is the way lead to social evil in my country , so people are having the bad view about it.

It's not your fault and I think there's nothing you can do about it except ignoring them. It's normal for the community to label you as bad when you are a gambler. Maybe it is because of behavior shown by those people they've met there. The best thing you can do is to show them that you are not like those gamblers that they saw before.
Don't let other people affect you, when you are real gambler you should be clever and not too emotional because that is gonna be your weakness, don't mind other people say, just do your thing, besides it's your money and you have the right to use it at your own discretion.
No one is claiming here that this is their money. It’s his money and he have right to use it whatever he wants to do with. Besides, don’t you think we are here to give good advices to people? If you are seeing someone drowning in swimming pool, what will you do? Or you just sit on chair seeing him drawing, and you say, it is his life let him do what he wants to do? Think about it.

I agree why we ashamed of being gamblers my opinion is we don't need to ashamed it, because as we see today gambling is most popular pastimes by the people  in some other countries and most of people have gamble already. It is not wrong to gamble as long as you know some limitations and affect of gambling in your life. Not to ashamed for being gamblers because it makes you proud when you lucky to win a jackpot and become a good gambler.

Yeah, Gamblers in my country are looking at a criminal if the goverment knows you're gambling. You will be locked in jail for about 2 or 3 years. They're not supporting the gambling like the US goverment.

But that's so hard to change the perception or the point of view of the people around you, always that appear in their minds that if you are a gambler you are ruining your life, and there's no good result unless you win in a lottery type of gambling where you can be an instant millionaire and for sure they wont judge you in the way but congratulate you and be inspire.

People of the world are always the same from the beginning and flow with the show when you become successful with the gambling but they will castigate and humiliate you should things not turn your way. I also believe many gamblers live wayward lives that gets their society to see them in a demeaning way and that makes them feel ashamed of what they are doing

As I've said, all you can do is to ignore them, otherwise their words would linger around you like an ear worm that keeps on playing on your mind.

Nothing is wrong in ignoring them, in fact it could help you to atleast get rid of their playful minds. Honestly even if you win in lottery, it won'g inspire them to do the same, it would just give them idea to be at your side so you could atleast share to them what you've win.

i totally agree with you, he ought to be bold and serious as a gambler and  so if you can't control such a situation by simply ignoring those nosy people around you then what can you do then? I think it;'s best if you master courage and avoid them completely and live outside their sphere of contact.

When others see gambling as a bad thing, then being a gambler is a shame. People will see you as a bad person because you do things that are not good. Here gambling is also considered a bad thing, and I've never seen anyone who claims to be a gambler here, here gamblers gamble in secret because it's a shame if you're known to be a gambler here.
 


Well it is because many who are engaged in gambling and not the gamblers themselves are living irresponsible lives because many  abandon their family responsibilities and gamble their monies out because they don't know the basic rudiments of gambling and has thus created a bad name  for the noble activity of gambling.

In the starting I was thinking that I am really a bad person and I was also feeling shameful for myself to be a Gambler .
Because I was lossing much amount of Bitcoin in Bitcoin gambling Daily , my loss was be then what I was earning daily from Bitcoin and Bitcoin trading.
But in present time I am not thinking that I am bad in any manner because I have control at myself for gambling because I am making gaming for fun and in Limited amount to enjoy with my earnings and luckily I am making some earning in  Bitcoin gambling with current stretagy .
And here I would like to suggest every friends that don't be professional with Gambling , only make yourself control over such things and only enjoy instead to make big and bulk profit .

Though I do not have any experience with gambling, what makes gambling shameful is the implications after losing/winning. People tend to be shy especially when they are drowned in debt due to gambling and not due to gambling itself. Gambling as a hobby or as an entertainment purpose does not constitute to being shameful to an individual but rather the after-effects of it. Like I said, a lot of my friends suddenly became quiet after they lost most of their resources/money due to gambling. But then again, this is a case-to-case basis and it may differ primarily on the attitude of a person.

There is no shame in gambling, but some people try to make a business out of pure randomness. Poker can be a skillful game where a single person can make a profit against other players, but a game like roulette cannot be won consistently. Even if you find a skilled game to master, it can cause a lot of stress.
That's the nature of gambling so you need to accept it if you really want to gamble, there will be no stress actually if you are just doing it for fun because you don't really aim to win for the long term, just forgetting your loses and move on will help you to stay having fun. When we are too ambitious and we look for me, that will be the time that we will lose more and that is so stressful because we always find method to help us win in the long run.
