If you have a mindset that gambling is your source of income, then you get so attached that you become an addict. Your point is valid, one should see gambling as fun and not a source of livelihood. With that ease of mind, you make more wins since you play with a free mind.
This is one mistake of gamblers. They see gambling as their source of income that is why they are getting addicted into it. I think we can't blame them because it is how they think about it but I think gambling is only a source of fun and entertainment and not a source of income.

At some point, I agreed. It just gives us pressure everytime we lose the game and not the pleasure. Contradict with most of the people who expect fun, it is fun if you always win the gamble with low capital. But what if a gambler always deposits money and always lose? Addicted comes on a way and it's not healthy to each lives of our emotions and behaviour is already affected.
Gamblers need to stop from gambling for a while if he always loses and doesn't come back for some time. If he doesn't realize this, he will have a chance to become addicted and that will be too risky for him. He will lose more money and of course, it will be related to his finances. It is better to realize the risk so we can prevent from being addicted to gambling and we can save the money for another thing in our life. Become addicted will take our money without we can stop and that is the worst nightmare for the gamblers.
Yes, it makes people to be addicted but as long as you relieve your stress in gambling, make it is as a pass time. You don't know if you are the lucky one if you just bet.
That could happen if we have luck at the end of the days. We don't know when our luck will come, whether it will come today, tomorrow, or on the other days. And that is why if you know that, you should not risk too much money, it's not because you will lose in the next round, but is more than how you can save your money before it's too late.
Yes, I agree with what you said. We need to use gambling as a relieve the stress, have a fun activity, enjoy the game, and don't use gambling as a way to search for money. When we can consider that luck in gambling is part of the fun, then we should not worry if we lose.
Gambling should be done with a free mind, and your point about gambling for fun is OK but many see it as a source of livelihood. What I've come to realise is that if you take things easy in gambling, you win more than someone who takes it as a job. The bottom line is, we gamble to earn funds so no matter how one puts it, you can't take gambling just for fun entirely.
Playing under pressure is a serious problem in gambling because the effect is that we will be carried away with emotion and if that happens bad things can happen like addiction and frustration. On my side, I don't think gambling is just for fun but I gamble to earn some money we play with money not fun.We won't be making good judgement due to lack concentration, when under pressure, you cannot properly follow your strategy and most of the time, it will only result to big loses as you might become too emotional to chase your loses.
Gambling just for fun sounds good but in real life nobody gambles just for fun, the aim is to make some extra cash. If we can see gambling as fun, it will be much better since it gives peace of mind, when you lose, you won't be so bothered. People taking gambling as a job is not so cool.
Gambling is really fun, I don't know what reality are you actually talking about but yes in reality gambling supposed to be for fun alone. It's just that greedy people are sometimes too hyped to think that this can make them rich or even richer.
Professional gambler is actually cool in my opinion because only few have succeeded. But then again if you are a beginner never ever make it as a profession unless you are confident enough, wealthy enough and smart enough
It does not necessarily mean that if you are always losing on gambling, you are meant to be loser. No! Gambling is a matter of luck. And we can say that our 364 days of betting is a bad luck but on the last day, we might win.
Yes, it makes people to be addicted but as long as you relieve your stress in gambling, make it is as a pass time. You don't know if you are the lucky one if you just bet.
Even we say that you'll win at the last minute, have you think that you can recover your losses for how many days of losing? Still, it won't and you're still a loser at all. Haven't argued that gambling is purely at luck but we've tried to think that luck isn't on us all the time, may losses still be in high rates than of winning. Yes, it makes people to be addicted but as long as you relieve your stress in gambling, make it is as a pass time. You don't know if you are the lucky one if you just bet.

Btw in reality people have to look gambling and casinos like this: A website which offers variety choise of games but requests from you to spend some money, like that happens when you purchase DVD of your favourite game. If someone doesn't look this way, it's his/her problem. On another hand some people have much money and are looking for more exciting experiences, gambling for fun and possibly for profit, both together.
If you have a mindset that gambling is your source of income, then you get so attached that you become an addict. Your point is valid, one should see gambling as fun and not a source of livelihood. With that ease of mind, you make more wins since you play with a free mind.

they think they can have a long term success in gambling.
I believe there are only two possibilities that will happen if we stick too much with gambling, either we succeed or we will go bankrupt, which will likely to happen.

1st point, long term players are just people who enjoy it. Hopefully anyone who isnt enjoying the bets has already burnt themselves out of the game at that point.
2nd point I dont agree with as a person can always moderate their involvement with anything, it doesnt always have to be absolutes. Gambling can be healthier then drinking, smoking even sports which can be dangerous or lead to long term injuries. Its not always the negative people label, it can just be a past time, entertainment is how I view it.

Yes, those two possibilities will always be behind of us no matter how long we played. And if we didn't realize that, I am sure that we only see a bankrupt that will happen soon to our life. The success in gambling will not happen to all gamblers, but unfortunately, many gamblers want to make a success in gambling. And that makes some of them act irrationally because they risk almost all of their money.
One of the problem indeed is when you loses money instead of quitting and accept it most of those uncontrollable gamblers will proceed and deposit more trying to recover their loses and ends up losing much bigger amounts, there's no enjoyment anymore whenever you lose big stake of money you should stop and quit if you already suffering from this actions.
They will continue to lose the money if they play for more. It will happen even if they like it or not. Once we lose control for ourselves, we will go to lose everything we have. If there is a chance to stop, we need to stop as soon as possible because we don't know what will happen to us. We don't have to gamble with our lives.
If you put more money into the game, you can become poor.
That's really a bad idea, you are risking your finances if you do that.
Rules that I follow is that only gamble what I can afford to lose therefore it should not be more, I put only a small amount of money to win big and I think that's the mentality of most gamblers. If we lose even most of the time, it would not be hard for us to move us since we are just gambling a small amount of money compared to gambling a big money that could affect your life outside gambling.

Yes, gambling can make man destitute at any time. Gambling is just for fun only. Gambling is not a way to make money. I know many people play gambling to earn money. But it should not be done at all. Gambling will have to play for fun. Humor pressure can never be taken if you lose in gambling. Remember gambling is just a simple game that is fun to play. Never invest more money in gambling. If you invest a lot more in gambling then you can be destitute.
Thank you
Thank you
At first, I never thought of investing in gambling. As you have said it is supposed to be for fun alone there you should not consider the money that you put in to gambling as an investment. That can be pretty dumb ideology unless you are there for making serious money which is actually pretty rare. Making fun while having a means of limitation should always be the mindset of gamblers.
Agreed! Gambling should only be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, and not as a way to generate an income.
Not all gamblers think like this since they really play just to have profit and to earn more money since gambling, even if we tell them not to be greed their emotion will take over. Gambling are made for that entertainment purposes but if you are a rich player, for sure your goal is to have profit and not to have fun. Quote
Gambling is not as simple as you think it is. You may think that it should be played just for fun but the reality here is, it's not. There are lots of professional gamblers whos doing gambling for a living.
The professionals are playing games where they can make a statistical advantage for themselves. Most crypto games do not fit into this category. However, I want to make a defense for crypto gambling. What they do offer is entertainment to the overwhelming majority of gamblers who are just out there enjoying themselves. And with super thin house margins, provably fair games and easy deposit withdrawels, crypto gambling has its advantages to more dodgy brick and mortar options.
I am not considering gambling as an investment. Profits is not pretty sure to be achieved and it is the opposite instead when one will deposits money on betting or gambling platform. Pretty sure losses will be made or one can still get profit but it will depend on the luck of the one that will gamble. So, I guess it is not a good idea to consider gambling as an investment.
I think gambling is an investment but a risky one and this is the reason why people refrain from getting involved in gambling. Those who want some quick bucks do get in the fight and try to make some good money but overall, it is not considered a good investment of your time and money. One should rather look for promising ventures with good probability. If you put more money into the game, you can become poor.
That's really a bad idea, you are risking your finances if you do that.

That should is the best rule to follow so that you will not get stressed and don't lose everything but most gamblers become greedy that they risk their finances in the hope of getting a big returns in gambling but sadly most gambler's aren't that lucky instead of winning they lost everything the work hard for, in gambling it is important that you know your limitations as not to result into bigger problems, or better just do it for fun and bet small amounts.
