Shoot man, if you gamblin' away all yo money, that definitely sommthin' to be concerned 'bout.  Don't know that a gambler needs to feel SHAME nessissarily, but a problem is a problem.  Know what I'm sayin'?  That go for most cultures, tho I hoid Asians will gamble on anythang. 

So naw, I don't fee any shame watsoever.  I cud walk out the house in a zebra skinned jock thong an' ballet 'round the naybrohood an' I'd feel like I'ma walkin' on a cloud.  Ain't no reason ta feel shame.

Yo, that's good to know man that you are not ashamed to be called a gambler, it is a privilege man that you can lose some amount of money that others can't. And for those gamblers that are ashamed just because sometimes they are losing big amount of money, they don't want others to know what is happening to their gambling career because that is disgusting to them.

i dont feel shameful, i just gamble occasionally and i always gamble with my own spare money, and whenever i gamble i always gamble responsibly and i never created any trouble because of my gambling activity, so i think i dont need to feel bad because i gamble
I done this gambling occasionally but still feeling shameful and never talk openly with friends and family because most of them not like them but I started few months ago silently mostly done on my computer never done practically around my place
I just gamble silently because i just want to be anonymous but never feel that to be shameful.
Im not so proud to be part of bitcoin and to gamble here anonymously and i am happy to part of this project.. that honsetly are giving more benefits as just a gamblers i never feel to be shameful..
as most of the people are not considering gambling as good activity, therefore most of the people are not playing it as openly, and like to play it anonymously, i think bitcoin is now providing opportunities to such people who do not want themselves to expose to people while playing gambling.

I'm not ashame of being a gambler even in real world. I guess because of the environment where I live in.. in my country where gambling is legal so that's shy it's common for us to be a gambler. So for me, I'm not shameful about it.

Being a gambler is a most interesting activity and I never feel shameful about it. My family and friends sometimes criticize me because of gambling too much. However, as long as I know how to control my money and manager my bankroll, I never lose money Cheesy. And to me, gambling is a entertainment which is created for people to satisfy and make them happier.
Actually you have overcame from that shame part, I mean the shame usually is that we do not tell our family and friends but you have told them and even have been criticized too. So apart from that nothing can make you feel bad for your gambling habit, its the surroundings of a person which makes him feel bad or good about his actions.

No, not really since it's no-ones business and I tend to keep it pretty private. Also, I think that a lot of people around me also gamble from time to time, by playing the state lottery and buying scratchers sometimes.

I do agree that there is a bit more of a negative perspective surrounding gambling in a casino, whether is it offline or online.
Well that's the thing. You keep it private. That means you don't want others to know about it. Because of the negative perspective? Would you feel shameful if others found out?
Well it's pretty normal nowadays and a lot of people are gambling in the open so i don't think there's a need to be ashamed. It's even televised at times like professional poker games. Nothings wrong with it and why would people care anyways if you're a gambler or not. People have become a lot more open minded these times with topics such as gambling so you can openly say that you gamble at times without being embarassed
And if someone is ashamed of his activities then its probably very confusing I mean even if you ask a smoking person is he shameful for doing so ? He will beat me and say no dude I am not. So while smoking is actually bad, gambling is not that bad too so nothing to be ashamed of.

Well, I think that the only time I would feel ashamed of gambling is if I failed to report my winnings to the IRS for tax purposes (something I would never do, of course), but in my mind, there's no other reason I would be ashamed of myself for gambling and there is certainly no reason why I would hide my participation in the activity.  However, I do believe in financial privacy, so keeping my financial transactions confidential to everybody else, accept the IRS (of course), is something regularly practice.

Being open minded is a proof that you are already matured in gambling, and being matured will not make you ashamed in gambling, besides the money you are using is your own money so you all have the right to enjoy whatever you have without considering what people will say against you.
Actually I am a bit ashamed that I gamble because I never can tell my family about this hobby of mine and if I tell them their viewpoint towards me would change, no matter how hard I work in office my children would think that I have been lucky on the day and hence they are eating food.

There is no need for me to get ashamed for being such a gambler. You as well as long as you are not being addicted to it and makes sure that your capital came from you and from somewhat else
Yes, we are gambling our own money and there is no one who can stop us from spending our money the way we want, though as I see from some replies that people are ashamed to tell their family. Actually they just need to tell their family lightly that they play games online to relax their mood, that's it no need to tell hem that you gamble, gambling is similar to gambling.

Even we gamble with our own money but in some countries, gambling is a bad habit and can lead to whoever did it get a less favorable treatment. That's why some people try to hide his gambling actions from everyone near him.

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!

No I don't feel shameful. I used to play poker and pay college with it, and every time I said that to some of my friends they would definitely show a strange expression, like thinking I'm addicted and don't know that I was doing, but I never really cared. Not all of them were like that. I guess some didn't understand which is normal, so it was there problem not mine really, so no reason to be shameful or hide it.

No, in this thread, we are not talking about addiction is a shameful way or not. The discussion about the gambling, if we are gambler, do you feel shame on it or not?
Because, it is common talking that many countries are banned gambling and also consider that gambling is illegal way of earning, that 's why many gamblers do gambling with silently. But if i am talking about myself than no doubt i feel shame on it, so i always play on online gambling, because it suit me.   
It doesn't even have to be banned. Just the view of the general public may be different and gamblers may be consider as the low layer of the society...
But basically you're right. This is the point of this discussion.

I guess there is also some point in discussing situations when gambling is banned in a particular place. For example you live in a country where gambling is banned but you still do gamble through online casinos like fortune jack or other bitcoin gambling sites. Will you feel ashamed when you do gamble especially when it is banned in your country or religion but you still gamble anyway? I guess this is a point we can also discuss.

No, he means to say like if addicted to gambling then we may feel ashamed for being a gambler. When we are just using gambling for some purpose either for making profits or for entertaining then there will be no need to feel ashamed for being a gambler.

Maybe in his view being addicted alone will be the enough reason to get ashamed for being a gambler. I too do not find any wrong with that.
That's true but society (which usually makes us feel shameful) makes no differences. They just don't care why you gamble. Only thing that matters to them is that you gamble.
