A Bitcoiner chooses. A slave obeys.

Gamblers their choice. Everyone comes into gambling with different motives so respecting their choice is best be it for fun or for the money it's a personal decision because if it turns out negative the bear the consequences alone and if it's positive many will want to associate with the wins so it's a choice

Everyone is indeed responsible for their own choices and they all react differently to the different outcomes of those said choices. But then again everyone is a different person with a different personality. I for example do not mind losing small amounts for fun. Because thats what gambling is to me, basically just fun. But then again, I am not someone who would bet his lifes savings for anything.

So I guess it really depends on how hardcore you are willing to go.

Of course, winning hundreds of thousands of USD is way more exciting than winning few hundred bucks, but that does anyone really care about having fun at that point? At that point its basically an obsession, unless you are rich. Then its relative fun.

believe it or not, there are people who find gambling relaxing, entertaining, or just like you said "fun". there are people who don't really mind losing and winning is just a bonus. it might be hard to believe because we have been so used to knowing/seeing that gambler's priority is to win money.

Have you heard that some people gamble for fun and not necessarily to make money?

I find it hard to believe completely because who doesn't like to make some more money even if it is not needed.

If you knew the exact sum you were going to loose gambling, and you are the type that they say " gambles for fun", will you find it fun loosing that money still? will you return another day in awareness of how much you will loose and still want to loose for fun?

impossible, because to be honest i never saw people wasting money when it comes gambling wherein without any intention to double their money from it..

Actually i have friends that playing online cock fights and their mission always is to win to have big rewards.. Its all about money bro..

So its impossible to be honest that there's a gambler that playing for fun only. Grin

It depends me and most of my fellow workers always do gamble but not in casino or sports betting like gambling if the other workers would be able to do something what we told him for example drinking 3 pint of beer in 30 seconds and we place bet that he can or he can't and that was fun and we don't care if we lose or win since we are enjoying it. Same as in casino and in gambling if you are being entertained by the game without worrying if you are losing or winning then you are having fun but if you are only aiming to have money and getting anxious on what might be the outcome then you are playing for money and not the fun.

Quote from: ?? on ??

is about having the right emotion. Not every gambler can practice this type of habit and not to use the last money to play because that they are losing in the game. Self control is the hard part of gambling and addict find that difficult to do. For an addict, he must win every day by every cost but they are keep failing with such mentality of gambling.

I've been addicted to slots games lately, in the first few days, I lost quite a lot, and this made me want to play to win even more. However, this is not a good way to play. I've been able to reduce my addiction to dice, but because slots is a new game for me, so my mistakes are back again. Can't control myself when lose. but I'm happy to have friends who remind me not to be stuck with this condition for too long and give tips, how to play well. after all, gambling does not promise 100% profit, big wins can also trap for us to bet bigger in the hope that luck continues or when our greedy come, and when this condition occurs, we often lose everything.

So, it is supposed to play fairly, if you have lost, close the gambling website, and switch to non-gambling games, may we can find another fun from there.

Gambling for fun alone it can only be when you are trying to quit and there are other websites that offer you to play slots for free for example(I know that you can do that in the casino itself but the first step to quit gambling is moving away from the site you play the most).All other scenarios are not saying the truth,most of the persons who claim this are only deceiving themselves as they know that from the fun there is no escape from going to true money and if you start with very small amounts chance are pretty high that this amount to escalate pretty quickly.So the only option when people gamble for fun is when they try to quit but that so far has not prove to be an effective way to quit gambling.

And that's the personal choice of many gamblers and that is to have fun. It's true that when you talk to someone, they'll just tell you that they're gambling for fun.
But you don't know if they speak for the truth or they're just trying to hide the real reason why they gamble and that is to make money from it. When they lose, it seems that it's totally normal to them but there's a likely that deep inside of them, they're frustrated and wanting to recover and chase their losses.

Most of the people that gamble always gamble to make money, but some people gamble just to have fun so not really everybody that gamble always gamble to make money. like me personally whenever am gambling I always gamble to make money, I don't really gamble for fun I can't afford to be losing money and still be calling it fun, but I know of a friend that always gamble for fun some times whenever he is stressed the only thing he do to cool himself down is to gamble so I believe some people gamble for fun but lots of people gamble to make money.

I believe more than 90% of the people playing gambling are in search of money. If they need fun only, there are so many other non-gambling games that are more interactive and can provide more entertainment than gambling. Fun in gambling comes with money, if you are winning in gambling, you are having fun but if you start to lose money, there's left no fun in it.

For me I'm not gambling for fun, but gambling with amount afford to loss. Before I gamble I've set the profit goal or how long I can gamble, so if the goal still not reached but my times is run out, I'll stop it. I'm not denying many people want to gamble is looking to earn profit... but you need to have proper money management and know you're not always can beat the house. When you're loss and reach the amount you can afford to lose, never try to recover with your extra bankroll.

I think it depends on the gamblers who played in gambling sites or gambling casinos, but I heard some people talking about this kind of topic and said to each other they played gaming to find their way of happiness and not for earning purposes but other said that they gamble because they want to earn some massive rewards and especially they will earn money.

I find it funny that you think that there isn’t anyone out there who gambles just for fun. I myself simply gamble only for fun. Every time that I put money down on something to gamble on, I always consider that amount gone for good. Sure I’d like to win but it’s not money that I’m needing to count on, otherwise I shouldn’t (or you shouldn’t) be gambling it! Rich people gamble for fun all the time too.

Why not? I know a lot of people who spend money "down the drain" (from my point of view) and they do it consciously for the sake of pleasure. For example, sometimes I make purchases in mobile games (these are not things or something else that can be resold later), this is a conscious loss of money, but it brings pleasure, why can't this happen with betting?

No, that is not the exact worlds, I only hear the words " gamble for fun".. In such way, you can gamble to make money at the same time but regardless of the outcome, you should make sure you have fun, I know losing is not fun, but if it will result to addiction, then gambling is not fun to you, but destructive.

It is true. If playing gambling is just for fun, it will be okay because we are not trying to chase money.
But most people will try to make money playing gambling and forget that gambling is not a place to make money.
Unfortunately, many new people are trapped in that condition because of their lack of self-control and many lose their money at the gambling table.
Addiction is a serious consequence of gambling and it has happened to many people so we must avoid gambling addiction.

This is how supposed to be, we can't win always in gambling so better to enjoy playing instead of stressing yourself since gambling is not a money machine that can give you a guaranteed return, you must understand this one. Having fun spending your money is not bad at all, but don't make this as your habit especially if you are living a day to day pay check, better to spend extra money than to spend all your savings into gambling, that's not about having fun anymore.

Most people keep saying to themselves, "I'm playing for fun" but when they lose they feel the pain of losing the money, they're not playing for fun. they just don't want to admit they're playing for money. I particularly play to make a profit, of course I know that games of chance are not guaranteed profit, but I play to make a profit

I don't believe it myself, but anyway maybe I'm wrong and there are people who are playing for fun and for those people I wish them congratulations and I hope they're not lying to themselves

when the person plays just for fun then the person doesn't try very hard to win the games and the person when he loses gets pain because he lost even though he keeps telling himself he's playing for fun

Initially many gamblers usually play just for fun and release stress after work, but after a while I think it's no longer a place to find fun, but it can be said that it has become an activity for them, to find fun, of course there are many ways that can be done what we do besides having to do gambling in my opinion, besides that when someone is relieving stress because of work, of course, they will only get more stressed after they lose money in gambling

In the past, a large number of people went to the casino or to a group of friends to have fun, which was a great stress reliever. However, now, only a small number of people are having fun; most people go to gambling to earn money and some become addicted to it, resulting in them becoming indebted as result of their gambling addiction. People used to have fun even when they were losing money, and they were able to maintain control. Now, however, most people are greedy and want to recoup their losses, which only leads to further losses.

Once you've gambled long enough I think you'll start to see the fun side of gambling. I do agree with the others that it's not fun to lose money but in a way, it's somewhat similar to how people enjoy playing on arcades as some arcade places provide the chances to win back your tokens or tickets in exchange for an item.

Sure you're likely going to lose for the most part but I think it all comes down to preference as there are people who enjoy gambling with their gambling friends and even if you're alone you could still have fun by participating in contests, promotions, etc.

It seems to me that you need to change your attitude toward gambling.

Think about it, you don't mind paying money to go to a movie/restaurant/party, but you're not willing to pay to play poker, roulette or slots. Do not you think this is strange?

Any bet in gambling includes a fee for the provision of services and winning is just a nice bonus in addition to the emotions received from the game.
