Do gamblers use gambling as a celebration or do gamblers use this time to take some time off and rest?

Christmas holidays are always busy days because people are more interested in buying stuffs for the festive period and they concentrate more on things that will generate sure income for them instead of focusing on gambling but i do not argue that people don't gamble during holiday seasons but those who gamble most are people that are hoping to win and facilitate the yuletide expenses but for those that already has the money to spend, they don't care much about gambling but after the holidays that is when you will see much of gambling activities since most people spends so lavishly during Christmas period and bear the consequences of their actions after the holidays. 
         In my own opinion, holidays are supposed to be a time off from work and some unnecessary stress, not that you should not gamble but not focusing more of your energy in it so that you don't lose so much money that you kept to enjoy the festive period with your loved ones.

I feel that I usually don’t have enough money to gamble during the holidays. During these New Year and Christmas holidays, I enjoy time with my family. We travel, eat outside, and live to the fullest. For this, I spend money on buying these temporary luxuries; hence I don’t have extra money to gamble. A man earns hard-earned money to spend on himself and on his family; hence, I make sure that we enjoy ourselves throughout this holiday. I don’t know about others, but I don’t gamble during the holidays due to the budget constraints.
Usually, most of us spend a lot during the holidays and this is the season of giving so we tend to spend and give to our loved ones because that's what we think is the right thing to do. So, the lesser money we've got, the lesser attention we do in the gambling activities that we usually do. That's why if we travel a lot and buy things and presents for the holidays, we have to be happy with that and as you've said, we have to enjoy our time altogether with our family but I have buts in here. If you're up to have some fun with your me-time, no one should stop us from gambling if ever we can do it with our free time and still have got some spare.
Come in mind of that holidays do only happen once in a year or a specific day of the year on which it will really be just that too much if you will really be trying out to gamble even on holidays. It will really be that worth if you will be having that consideration on putting up your time into your family rather than on spending it solely on gambling but of course when it comes to someones choice then it will really be just that depending on you but of course it will really be that recommended that you do really know at least on what you should be gonna doing. Just be sure that on the time that you had find yourself spending up with gambling then it will really be that up to you.

Holiday season is something that you will really be needing up to consider out first because this do only happen once a year and its recommended that you do really know at least that you spend up some time with your family. You do really know at least the importance family on which this one is really that needing up to consider on doing so. Its not really that bad to have such step at least so that you wont be having regrets if ever there might be some problems in between family members.

I don't know if this is also true in other countries, but here in mine gambling is often associated with gatherings. And since families, relatives, and friends usually gather during the holidays, it also means gambling. Card games such as chinese poker and other variations of poker are usually played. Perhaps the younger ones would also have their own group doing their gambling online.

The Christmas season is a season of abundance. It's the time for bonuses, dividends, and the like so there's probably enough money to spend.

For me this is the best time I mostly gamble because it's festive/holiday season because I don't have much working doing during this period so most of my free time I use it to predict and gamble some games online since I have the betting site in my phone I don't go out to gamble most people always say that don't usually have time during holidays while for me holidays is when I have most of my time even to gamble because I won't be going to work rather stay at home and gamble when I wish or when I feel too bored, gambling with the amount I can afford to lose is what I do when gambling.
Yours is better. Maybe during your holiday period you get free from all kinds of work; you don't stress yourself with work again, but don't you have family that you are supposed to spend some of those times with? Holiday periods like this are when all will be free; family reunions take place, and others travel from far away just to make sure that they reconnect with each other.
 
If you have such a family, the time that you will spend in gambling will be limited, even as you only need your phone and internet connection to access those casinos you have an account with; you will still need some free time away from distraction to focus and do that prediction in sports betting.

What are your general traditions when it comed to gambling during the holidays? It would be interesting to see different perspectives


Those who gamble on holidays may have enough time, but it is normal for people to be busy all the time on these holidays. Because every person wants to spend time with their family, and they will go out with their family.
However, in my opinion, it is best not to gamble on holidays, because on this special happy day, it is best to take care of yourself and spend time with your family at an outdoor restaurant or enjoy the freedom of nature. However, there are some gamblers who have endless time, they can gamble on these holidays.

The majority of the games have been paused or the season is over. This has actually been made to give way and a chance for the players to enjoy these holidays together with the family. I think we (gamblers) also have to take some breaks as well and enjoy the holidays. 
Yes, for some sports there will be a holiday during this seasonal holiday. but there are indeed some that don't have a holiday. it's just that, it goes back to the gamblers, because there are still non-sports games. and even slots never end, so it will vary, some even prefer to gamble than go out of the house to hang out with their families. This is terrible, especially if they are addicted, it's hard to advise.

and if I personally, when on holiday, just take a holiday first to spend time with my family, and after returning, I can continue gambling again so that the focus is different and focuses on each activity. because in fact our brains and feelings also need to refresh and release the situation.

Years ago I enjoyed dealing with crypto matters, including gambling, during the holidays. For me it was nice to have the family celebrating around, while I was imersed in crypto universe. It wasn't a problem to gamble during this time of the year.

However, as the years passed, I lost interest on occupying myself with those matters during holidays. As time goes by we develop new interests and practices. The excitement I had for gambling, for an example, vanished away. So it's not something I'm willing to do during holidays anymore, although I think there is nothing wrong with people who gamble in such moments.

Since they aren't addicted and are able to manage their time, there aren't any issues.

I feel the holidays are one very difficult time to gamble because i believe that he holidays are times where even some of the players are anticipating to be with family and spend some time so that could effect their performance as their mindset is gradually channeled towards another lace they will want to find break and rest at, same may even apply to the coach so at this point the productivity of a team may not be completely determined as there may be exceptions and this include with the coach too at some point so basically for me its not a really good time, and as for me the gambler, i have got so many expenses to make so that too will affect my staking strength and by extension my gabling approach and character so i avoid it and see it as not so good a time.

As a gambler that's into sports betting I prefer to gamble during the holidays because I take it as a source of entertainment and it's also very relaxing to do this during the holidays when I'm not working or occupied. Gambling during the holidays for me is also more preferable to me because I can do this comfortably without any form of pressure or duress. This is the best way to gamble for someone that gambles on sports, it requires a lot of time to analyze and strategize when it comes to sports betting so the holidays is the best time for this, well , everyone has their preference.
Aren’t most sports done by this time though? There are still some matches left but usually by this time the matches are already over and even the athletes themselves are taking their well deserved rest.

But I guess it depends on the sports that you are interested in. Some sports happen all year long so I guess people really do take time off their holidays and gamble on those sports.

I think it was not our loss for not gambling this time, but I believe it is more than winning when bonding with family and friends. I think we also have to value these holiday seasons over our hobbies or leisure.

Well, we can't stop people from gambling because casinos are still open for betting.

Basically everyone has the freedom to choose what activities they will do during the holidays and there may be several other factors that are the reasons why they prefer other activities than gambling like you experience which has limited money so you don't fill your vacation with gambling, that's okay buddy because you can determine everything as you wish, and the point is I would say prioritize something that is indeed much more important such as buying valuables for the family or going out for dinner together.

For me personally, honestly, it depends on the situation, or I mean if I really want to gamble then I will do it too, but I will also look at my financial situation first, simply put, if for example I have money that is ready to be lost then I also won't mind allocating it to gambling, in my opinion it all depends on the situation, priorities and readiness.

First of all wishing you all a merry Christmas! Hope you all have a delightful holiday. We know that during the holidays, festivities are always felt in the environment. Do gamblers use gambling as a celebration or do gamblers use this time to take some time off and rest? Do gamblers have lots of money dedicated for the holidays? Or due to celebration gamblers do not have a lot of money to spend anymore?

What are your general traditions when it comed to gambling during the holidays? It would be interesting to see different perspectives

Many gamblers see the holidays as a time of celebration and fun, and gambling can be an integral part of that experience. Casinos and betting sites often offer holiday-themed promotions and events, luring players with the promise of extra winnings and festive fun, and I'm sure many here set aside a specific budget for gambling during the holidays, seeing it as a form of entertainment and a chance to get an early Christmas present, especially in countries where it's like receiving an "extra paycheck" at the end of the year.

I, on the other hand, try to stay away from online gambling and spend this time with my family more, taking advantage of the fact that my son is home more to go out for walks or have a good time instead of just sitting in front of a screen.

However, I must admit that I have traveled abroad during the holidays and chosen a country where casinos were allowed (as in Brazil this is prohibited), just so I could have a night of fun.

However, I did so mainly with the aim of entertainment and not profit.

Gambling casino games could be tough for anyone in this holiday period because you will have divided attention and for sure your care is not taken you lose all your money trying to mix gambling with family activities, yesterday I was unable to stake a bet on Manchester City against Leicester city because of too many activities I forgot the time for the game and before I know what was going on the match have gone pass half time.


In the end, things like this don't happen to everyone because as long as we know the schedule of matches such as soccer or other competitions then obviously there must already be bets that we can place and that is what I often do regardless of whether I am on vacation or not everything feels the same to me because placing bets on some of these sites sometimes doesn't take long for me to do so I just need to be there for a moment and bet after that I return to focus on my vacation.

So in this case it may go back to each person because everyone has their own considerations where some will forget about their gambling for a moment and focus on the vacation agenda such as spending time with their respective families and there are also those who play gambling but do not forget about vacations because it can be left behind if in sportsbook, except maybe other casino games such as dice or slots that require time to see what we are.

It depends if one is busy or not but I think this is a busy moment of the year whereby many gamblers won't even have much time to concentrate in gambling. As for me this is a busy moment that I can't even think of gambling,  even to follow up with some sport games I found it very difficult. This is the end of the year that people are thinking so many things on how to end the year and begin a new plan for the coming year. For those who are ready busy this period their is no need to force oneself to play gambling,  because this is a game that one needs to focus and concentrate to play,  not just to gamble blindly.

So it isn't easy for those with family to combine these holidays with gambling because kids know this time is for them and they try as much as possible to exust us during this period,, for me, gambling will be suspended until I am done with the holidays, since I am not able to serve two masters at the same time, like gambling and Al's having fun with family at the same time.

Personally, I took out time to predict the EPL football matches today despite having a very tight schedule as a result of family meeting I am happy cause I got some money with one of my predictions and I will also pay bills with the money which is my greatest happiness. The holidays shouldn't stop you if you want to gamble especially if you gamble online.

I congratulate you, it was a very good day, City tied and is sinking deeper and deeper, now the match that really surprised me a lot was the one between Newcastle and Aston Villa, Aston Villa lost in an unmatched way, the truth is I feel a lot of affection for Newcastle, in fact it reminds me of the movie Goal, at the same time it also makes me feel sorry for the Dibu that things are going badly for him, on social networks they have many memes making fun of the Dibu, but I am very happy that you won and more so in these days that are holidays.

I do not have different perspective when playing during the holiday.  I always wish to win while engaging my free time to gambling activities.  I might probably allocate more fund to the bankroll because of too much free time during the holiday .

Despite allocating more fund, I still approach my gambling activity carefully since one wrong move or temper can cause our bankroll in an instant.

Gambling is always like usual at every moment. Gambling is not a routine that must be played like a necessity. Gamblers can play types of gambling games whenever they want to do it, including during the holidays or outside of it.

For me, when the holiday season arrives like now, enjoying a holiday with my family is the most enjoyable thing. In the middle of the holidays, as long as I have free time, I can hold my cellphone and place bets on sports. If there are no famous league matches, I don't play other types of games like slots. Just enjoy the holiday atmosphere.

To me, gambling during the holidays isn't the right choice. People gamble for fun, and maybe while travelling they were to spend time in a casino or in a betting shop, then it is fine. During the holidays, allocating specific time for gambling and spending money doesn't seem to be good. When we get into gambling, we're using the family hours for gambling. By the time we don't know whether we'll win or lose gambling. To our bad luck, if we lose, then it serves to be a mood spoiler, and the entire holiday might go without any enjoyment. So, it is good to focus on the real purpose of a holiday rather than gambling.

Yes indeed, although many gamblers consider gambling as entertainment and or just for fun, but in reality gambling on vacation is also not entirely appropriate. But maybe, if they are really gambling only with ready money to lose and not targeting winnings, then gambling during the holidays is not a problem either. But, the problem is when they target victory in gambling during vacation, then when they get a loss will certainly make their vacation a bad impression, and if that happens then it is certainly not interesting at all. Because with vacation, of course, we will feel the happiness with the fatigue of work and activities every day. Thus, it would be more appropriate to maximize the holidays just to keep the mood in a good situation, and not worsen because of losing bets.
