I just read this topic — Survey: Understanding Gamblers and Their Feelings

..and top result is to win money. Now, I have been at this phase before trying to win money with gambling and I fell face first that I find this idea absurd these days.

Now, those voters, have you been successful with making money with gambling?

Actually maximum person wanted to gamble to enjoy the game. But after a while, it turned into earning money if they earned money. And become greedy and later become a loser. Though there might be some exceptions yet maximum case is like the case I have mentioned.

And this happens to every gambler, every gambler thinks at first, "I'm just gambling for fun, and if I lose this money, I'll stop gambling", but they can't do it, when they win, they gamble greedily, and when they lose, they gamble emotionally. And only lose money. And in reality, this is what happens to most gamblers.
Although some people are able to control themselves and play within the right limits, and They are the only ones who can avoid big losses.

You know sometimes even though we know it's unlikely that we'll win when we play gambling at an online casino here in the crypto space, we still continue to gamble. We just think it's for fun but sometimes deep inside we think that we'll get lucky when we gamble, right?

Though we accept that we'll lose, that's okay, as long as we know how to limit ourselves when we play gambling. That's why we think that being successful in gambling is so difficult to achieve because it's really just luck in gambling.

We gamble to have fun, and that fun, which we are enjoying, we place money to have that fun; the money we place bets with to enjoy the game, if there was no little chance and possibility for us to luckily get something out of it, the limit to which we play and the amount we spend will reduce that mindset we have inside of us, and the possibility of winning by chance is what keeps the zeal going for us to keep on playing.

Believe it or not, I gamble for fun and excitement. Having money on the line gives me that additional adrenaline and makes the sports event a bit more interesting to watch.

I also gamble to make money, I don't deny because I don't give money away when I win, I don't fund charities or something. If it wasn't for the money I'd have given away every win and just kept losing money Wink

That said, money is not the only thing that matters here.

I pity people who bet and then take every loss hard, like it's the end of the world.

I can remember that when I first started gambling, I use to have a deep thought in my head that if I could just be lucky like other players who had won millions of dollars just on their first stage of gambling, but I was wrong, I didn't experience any of those huge life changing rewards but I was lucky to have realized on time that gambling can not actually make me achieve that big goal and I stopped having that big dream in gambling. Up till date, I know that I will not become supper rich from gambling unless it's just by luck. I gamble for fun and also hopeful of the profit but am not dependent on the succeeding from gambling.

Exactly you where lucky to have realised it sooner, not all where able to adjust their mindset on time some endup adjusting it after experiencing or after being a victim due to action (wrong approach to gambling), gambling with the wrong mindset can be dangerous to your health because you will be delusional , thinking you can get rich just by hitting the jackpot or thinking is something that can just happen fast , some of those who are millionaires now due to gambling, have experienced countless losses before getting to this point they are now , and some where not even lucky , after all the losses they still endup with notting and this is more common than those that wins or hit the jackpot.

Of course, it is necessary to soberly assess your chances of winning, and not always think that we were just a little bit short, this is an illusion. I also had this, that I think every time that I was just one step short. But then I started to study the work of the casino, the experience of other players and realized how everything works and that I am not the only one. The casino randomly gives you a win and it does not matter whether we just sat down to play for it or have been playing for years, the jackpot does not look at this and does not choose. Of course, there are stories about some players winning the jackpot twice, but there are very few of them. I did not win and almost resigned myself to the fact that I will never win it, but at the same time I can sometimes make small bets, because whoever does not play never has a chance to win.

In gambling there is no such thing as someone who wins successively and the mission may be the same but the results are definitely different. We saw one of the gamblers get a lot of money from the casino, remember it is not just a win but luck. Gamblers always think first about entertainment after getting good results.

Sometimes the question of being a successful gambler is not actually based on the frequency of your wins rather it's more of a measure of the magnitude of your wins compared to your losses. This is simply because you can only tag your gambling session as profitable when your gross or rather net profit and loss amount to a profit and not loss. There are cases where you get 10 wins which are still not able to cover just a single loss or less than three losses and that's where magnitude comes in.
This is basically the reason why you find out that most gamblers try to maintain a particular stake range this is to ensure that wins are able to cover up losses and not the other way around.

I myself am more on the perception that gambling involves luck so only luck will give victory to its players, many people spend time looking for ways to get victory while basically luck plays a big role in gambling so no matter how hard the player's efforts are made it does not guarantee that they will be able to get victory if they are not lucky.

We just need to play it healthily, think about continuing to gamble without affecting our circumstances whether it is financial, economic or others. Because if it is time for luck to be on our side then there will be victory. Also, don't think that we can be successful by gambling if we are just ordinary players.

Luck is one of the factors in gambling, but unlike you, I don't see it as the main factor, because after all luck is an important factor if we gamble in games such as slots and lotteries which do not involve special skills to play, but if you play on poker, blackjack and other games you obviously have to have expertise and skills to win because luck is not enough, that's why we can now see many professional players in poker games participating in international competitions, because not everyone can do it and unlike slots and roulette only need to press the start button.

Intentions don't matter so much, what does is the result so even if you have the intentions to make make money it doesn't always happen like that.

I agree with you that intentions don't really matter and that action and results are what count. However, for everything done there's first that intent before it's put to practice or realized. That some intents may not be realized don't mean they're inconsequential. That's why it's said, "if wishes were horses, beggars might ride". We don't always get what we want.

Quote

Inorder to enjoy gambling we should replace the utmost desire or intentions from making money to having fun and testing our risk tolerance.

This isn't something that can be done by default and that's why I don't subscribe to the idea that people gamble for fun. Humans don't like losing. So, anything that will make them lose isn't fun to them. We can say, "gamble with the funds you won't miss" that will sound more appealing than the former.

Quote

Gambling is not a business that we should go in basically to make money, it doesn't work like that because winning is by luck.

Well, that's how most gamblers see it; as an avenue to create wealth and extricate themselves from their poverty bloodline.

I am involved in the discussion from the thread link you shared, but personally I did not participate in the voting, for me it feels strange if we fool ourselves to say no to winning money in every bet / gambling. Personally, any gambling is very complex in essence, but it is inevitable that winning money is an inseparable part of gambling itself. The question is, do we always make money by gambling? The answer is of course no. On the other hand, do we always lose in every gamble? Of course not. That's why I say gambling is complex, in each session there are only two possibilities, win or lose, regardless of the house edge that we often associate with every gamble.

The only luck you can find in gambling is to get a big prize and run away. There are two types of gambling - total random(like casino games) and predictable(like sport betting). In the first type the only question is how much time you will spend to lose your money. I`ve never seen RTP more than 100%. And in the second type you use research and maths to get profit. Again without luck.

Yes, gambling needs luck to win and that is not always comes to us. No one will know when their luck comes so that will makes them keep playing gambling without stop. That will be a bad decision if they don't stop for playing gambling because that can make them lose too much money. We can only use gambling for fills our spare time but we don't have to use gambling very often because that can makes us become addicted to gambling.

As long as we can use gambling with right, we will not face any problem and even we can enjoy our spare time for playing gambling. We also need to allocate some money for our gambling activity so that will not disturb other things that also need money. We need to be wise treating gambling as an entertainment so we don't get addicted to gambling.

I really like that thread as it exposed much. For example it has brought about this further conversation. There are times when I gamble for the money. Do I always win, no. In fact the last win I had when my intention was to win money, was less than $15. I couldn't even withdraw it. Well it is just going to be there. The next time I play may be because I want to experience the adrenaline rush and not exactly for the money. I know that consistent wins are not possible but it you lose most of the time then something is wrong.

Remember that gambling is all about timing and partially about luck, so anyone losing most of the time doesn't really mean that anything is wrong. Losing too much can simply be a sign of tough luck or probably a sign to just leave the game for a whole to avoid further loses. There are people that actually gamble for money and end up winning most of the time , there are others that gamble for entertainment purposes that still lose. I think it's just a matter of how lucky you are, the most important you can do for yourself as a gambler is to manage your risks.

I am interested in gambling because it is an opportunity to enjoy both money and pleasure at the same time. I cannot say whether I will be successful in gambling or not, but my excitement increases depending on this uncertainty, which I enjoy. Even in this uncertainty, I have both losses and wins. I know that if luck does not favor me, I will not win. I try to manage gambling within my control. I try not to gamble more than I can take the risk. Therefore, if luck does not favor me, I am able to take a break there temporarily. I can very well realize that my chances of winning in gambling are very small, so if I lose, I try to gamble in such a way that it does not affect my personal life.

Yes, gambling is full of uncertainty and that uncertainty is caused because there is absolutely no way that can guarantee that you will win or succeed when running a session, so simply I agree with you that when a gambler loses in gambling it does not mean that they are gambling in the wrong way and it can also be said that when a gambler succeeds in winning it also does not mean that they are gambling in the right way, because it has been proven and I am sure most gamblers will agree with this which is the way that worked for you before actually made you lose money in the next session. So my advice is never to think about the results in gambling because after all it is beyond our control, and that is the reason why it is better for us to focus on various things that lead to prevention only.

A lot of users gamble for money, they see gambling as a skill and a source of earnings. However, there are many individuals who are not pleased with gambling. The reason is that they expect more from it and earn less, which eventually leads them into sadness and discouragement. For a successful gambling experience, a person has to gamble with greater precautions, put in more effort, and expect less. This approach will be helpful for them instead of making it a source of income and earning less. Gamble, but first control your emotions so that your money and mood do not get ruined.

We can never guarantee that we will win by gambling. I would say that the chances of losing in gambling are high. However, it is possible to earn money by gambling. But it can never be our only means of earning money. If gambling is our only means of earning money, then we will definitely face losses.

We must have some other means of earning money. It can be a job or a business. We often lose money by gambling. If we do not have any other means of earning, then we can lose money and go bankrupt. This is very bad for our mental health. I have seen many gamblers who have lost money and gone bankrupt and later got involved in various kinds of misdeeds.

Not all story have the same ending, people want to play gambling could be they just want to get entertained but most of them majority are would like to risk their money to get more profit with different aspects of the casino, if you see someone get tons of money in playing casino and hope you have the same outcome I guess you are in the wrong perspective. Gambling can give you an instant money but it can vanish immediately at the same time with the wrong decision making upon playing. Now its up to you if you want to gamble just for your satisfaction or to earn a lot of money.

Besides that, there are also people who only show their wins and hide the losses from others keep them under an image that they always win.
So people should stop keeping these false hopes that gambling will earn them good money because it won't.
Surely you can try your luck and you might even be luck enough at times to win a handsome amount but the rest of the times you are gonna lose money at gambling.
It's just the way how gambling is designed.
