It is true that there is always an opportunity to make a profit through the gambling we do, but we need to know that the possibility of winning is always smaller than losing. Because in gambling, losing is something we will definitely get, while winning is just a possibility.

Gambling is indeed a fun activity, but this pleasure is only temporary, only when we win. The rest that we get is just a feeling of regret, because we have spent a lot of money to finance these gambling activities. Therefore, always make sure that we only gamble on amounts that we are prepared to lose, on amounts that we are prepared to lose.

I've made some profitable bets especially in sportsbook but I won't consider those much profitable because the bets I have placed were of low value and that's why the earned profit was also low. Most of the profits were with very low odds and that's why I just ignore those profits and enjoy the fun part of gambling.
I always gamble with just a little amount of money just to have fun whenever I am bored, or whenever am stressed just to calm myself down, so I can’t just imagine gambling with a big amount of money, which I know can be used for other things. I do gamble with just a little amount, which I know won’t really have any effect on me if am gambling, so even when I am winning, I don’t really win a big amount of money from gambling since the amount I gamble with is low and the risk I take is always low, so my win is always low. I can’t really say I have won any big amount of money from gambling before

That's what most of us think when we start gambling but overtime we understand that whatever we were thinking wasn't right but was some type of illusion of our own mind. That's why one should gamble for fun and with the money he/she can afford to lose.
That's right, that's the best advice about gambling. Gambling should only be used as a place to get pleasure or entertainment, but in reality the average gambler has made gambling a source of income. The wrong mindset has changed gamblers' behavior from having fun to being all about winning and money, in the end they have to admit defeat.

Gambling responsibly is another piece of advice every gambler should consider. It's okay to have fun, but there are still concerns that you will develop an addiction if you gamble too often in pursuit of winning, which in the end means you no longer gamble responsibly.

I've made some profitable bets especially in sportsbook but I won't consider those much profitable because the bets I have placed were of low value and that's why the earned profit was also low. Most of the profits were with very low odds and that's why I just ignore those profits and enjoy the fun part of gambling.

I must say that I'm not among those lucky ones and haven't yet made huge profits in gambling but I want to know that do we have some of those lucky ones on this forum who have made exponential profits in gambling? If yes then kindly share your gambling story to inspire others.

Exponential? I don't dare to claim it, especially since we gamble for fun. But speaking of luck that produces profits, in sportsbooks we can also get it, make it happen, and achieve it, all if our choices are right and luck is on our side. Honestly, I don't like low odds. for me, that's not ideal at all. for me, when we are betting and the available odds are very low, I won't do it. Or, there are other options. it could be Under/Over, handicap and so on. In football, we have many options to bet and find decent odds. That doesn't mean that I just want to get a comparison of the money at stake with equal results, but all of that has gone through a process of research and analysis and involves other variables. In principle, if for me a match is not worth betting on, then I don't hesitate to look for another one. or, don't bet at all. In football, every week we are presented with many matches in various leagues. If you are willing to spend enough time, you can try to sort and choose. Usually, I always review it first. Apart from that, don't be tempted to think that the more teams you choose to bet on, the greater your chance of winning. My choice is only on 1 or 3 bets with ideal odds, not low options and not high odds either. So, everything is adjusted to the results of the analysis. However, if you want to get a decent and big enough win, parlay is the option you can choose. 3 matches is enough, especially since the money you are betting is quite large. of course, the results are also worth it. Well, so it all depends on you when betting on sports.

Profitable or not gambling can be abused and this is what causes people to lose their shit mentally and financially. You could argue that if you play your cards right you can win but what does playing one’s own cards right really means. Last I checked it’s pretty subjective especially when gambling is in the discussion, everyone who tried to "play their cards right" eventually lost all of their money in gambling, cause that's just what it does. It takes your money out of your hands.

one would have to be extremely lucky to experience "exponential profits"(it would be nice if I could experience it).
Yeah, I highly agree with you, one should has to be very lucky in order to win such high amount of profits. To be honest, everyone of us want to be extremely lucky but we all internally know that changing our luck isn't in our hands and that's why it's better to try our luck of wide variety of games.

I was just deceiving myself back then to believe that gambling can make me rich. 
That's what most of us think when we start gambling but overtime we understand that whatever we were thinking wasn't right but was some type of illusion of our own mind. That's why one should gamble for fun and with the money he/she can afford to lose.

This title is almost my motto. My priority in gambling is fun. I often gamble the price of a cup of coffee. And I usually bet on football matches. Most of the time I win, but there are times when I lose. Betting gives me pleasure when I watch football matches. Even the most unpleasant matches turn into exciting matches when I bet on them. I can't win anything better for the price of a cup of coffee. On the other hand, I don't get upset when I lose. Because a cup of coffee is a small amount for me. I couldn't win in a row and multiply my money a lot. But if one day I do, I won't change my current strategy.

[...] There's no body that can gamble all day without losses and profit, a gambler can not predict when the loss is coming and also when the profit is coming and for that reason gambling can not be considered as a profitable source of income because the risk of losing is too much and highly uncontrollable.

Every gambler always faces losses and profits, but never think that gambling as a potential profits, it will make our mentality changed. As for me, i never take gambling so seriously, if i take it serious in gambling, i believe that will changed my mind and will be addicted. So i agree that we should never considered gambling as a profitable source of income, too risky for our mentality and make us greedy, and the worst is it will make us into a deep loss.

The potential for profit is there but don't think profit will always be present in gambling I agree with that, in fact most gamblers experience losses, that's how gambling works just to get pleasure and a place where we spend a lot of money, whether for people who are addicted or not gambling is likely to be a loss, whether they have greed or not.

Honestly, I myself have experienced profits although not exponential but my losses are much more exponential compared to the benefits I get financially, driven by addiction, curiosity, ambition because it has experienced the benefits that make us want the same thing again after doing everything.
I hope that the thought that gambling will give us financial benefits should be discouraged because it will trigger ourselves to be more aggressive in gambling, even though we have experienced benefits, that thought should be discouraged. I don't hate gambling because to this day I still gamble, but I mean the wrong thinking will give birth to bad things in our lives, especially the biggest risk is losing what we have.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody
You're right OP, it can be profitable. The problem is that the casino will not donate its own money to you. All the money that you're winning is money lost by someone else. Today you're the winner, tomorrow you'll be the liquidity provider for the casino. Never forget about that. It's always you against other people and each of them wants to win and has dreams and goals they want to accomplish.
I haven't won big yet, but I don't bet a lot because I like moderate risk. The risk I feel like I can control.

Actually, one thing I understand in gambling it’s not just the profits. Yes everyone intention and gambling is to make money. Sometimes you need to also understand what gambling is strategy the person that is making the huge profit is using. It’s not every strategy that you think is good that can work for you. Everyone has the different strategy in gambling. That is the one thing I believe very well gambling have the different ways, whatever works for you in gambling may not work for the next person or you need to do is just understand what you do and do the 1 that works for you. If gambling little little by little is good and you are making the profit just continue don’t mind on the huge profit because if you try loss.

if you check the statistics of people who gamble because of their and catching fun with gambling and the cross check it to people who is gambling because of they needed instant money he will see the comparison that the people who is gambling because of money is higher than the people who is gambling because there are catching Cruise, so I don't want a situation whereby we deceive ourselves towards gambling they major objective of anyone who is into gambling is to make money but there are using catching of fun to cover up which I know that is everyone statement but when they lose in gambling they became depressed and became bothered so that is only fat or that you can notice someone who is gambling because of entertainment and the person who is gambling because it needed a multiplication of money through gambling.

I believe the goal of more gamblers is money. no one would throw away their money to gamble. the target is winning and that is what the casino offers. not fun after you play. but casinos offer big wins as their promotions.

I believe those who gamble for fun still exist. but most of them say this just to cover up their disappointment when they lose. everyone loves and has fun with the game. but when you lose it still leaves you feeling disappointed.

From the title of the topic it's clearly that I'm someone who considers gambling a fun activity but I can't ignore the fact that for some people gambling is quite profitable as well. I'm referring to very lucky ones as that some people because most of the gamblers get inspired after hearing their stories.
There are people who gambling have actually favored and although gambling is a fun activity, they have been able to make some extra income from it because they are lucky enough to record consistent wins when they play. if you happen to meet one of these persons that has very good luck in gambling, it will not be wise for you to try to copy them simply trying to replicate their success story from gambling because you may end up just becoming an irresponsible gambler who is not still profitable.
know if gambling is favourable to you, and be okay with just having fun with gambling if it is not a fun activity that has a good potential to profit you.
if you check the statistics of people who gamble because of their and catching fun with gambling and the cross check it to people who is gambling because of they needed instant money he will see the comparison that the people who is gambling because of money is higher than the people who is gambling because there are catching Cruise, so I don't want a situation whereby we deceive ourselves towards gambling they major objective of anyone who is into gambling is to make money but there are using catching of fun to cover up which I know that is everyone statement but when they lose in gambling they became depressed and became bothered so that is only fat or that you can notice someone who is gambling because of entertainment and the person who is gambling because it needed a multiplication of money through gambling.

I gamble mainly for fun but i don't fail to utilize any opportunity i get to make money off it and so in as much as i don't see making money as the primary thing in the gambling, i still try to make sure I'm careful enough to be able to make money of the gambling when i could not really be lucky most of the times when i gamble but  make sure i get to make money of the times i see an opportunity to. Most persons do have it to say that the primary reason of gambling is for fun but then at some point it could get you some more away from just having fun especially if you are skilled with it.

Gambling to make money solely may increase your desperations gambling but when you gamble because you want to have fun and it turns out rewarding, then it becomes a dual benefit with that which you intended achieving a single thing with. if you continue with the low odds and you are consistently making money off it, the chances that you will end up making more more off it becomes high as you will be able to actually make some good money off it.

Sometimes gambling can be profitable and the profit in gambling is unpredicted,  one thing you need to know about profit in gambling is that when you concentrate on it so much you may end up losing so much even before you can get the profit. Being so desperate about profit in gambling is not so good because it can make one to lose a lot of money and it can also make one to end up addicted . Considering gambling as fun is just the best because with a mindset like this not seeing money in gambling very important won't lead to regrets in gambling.
The day I visited this gambling board and was reading on topics about gambling addiction, what I learnt from some of those topics is that gambling platforms are place for losses and profit. There's no body that can gamble all day without losses and profit, a gambler can not predict when the loss is coming and also when the profit is coming and for that reason gambling can not be considered as a profitable source of income because the risk of losing is too much and highly uncontrollable.
This is why you need to play with the amount of money that you can't afford to lose because gambling is unpredicted,  and playing constantly and with big amount of money won't change the nature of gambling. The problem we normally have in gambling is that we do not really understand how gambling works.

            -   That's right, and that's why it's important that we train ourselves to limit the money we gamble when we play in a casino, especially if we are in the crypto gambling industry. Because if we only feel that we are going to live gambling, for sure our money will run out.

And maybe the others, even after losing, will deposit again just to catch up with the amount they lost. This is the pain of most gamblers that they always chase their losses in gambling, which should not be the case.

Peace be with you!
No doubt gambling is a gun activity if done responsibly and being profitable on it was just a bonus. Since gambling is based on luck I think spending the  budget we can afford to lose would be great as we don't want to overspend and got disappointed with the results just because luck turned against our bets. It is really better to play safe in gambling.

That's something that normally happens in gambling games, indeed they can't know or predict when they win or lose. But when he plays he can determine or control a game, he decides whether he wins or loses, for example when he plays poker. It's true what you say, we can't expect it as a source of income there, if we expect too much there it will make you even more addicted there and lose your money even more, it's best to only use a moderate budget when gambling.

We can have fun from gambling and can wins some money from gambling too. But we must understand that we can't forces ourselves to keeps playing gambling, especially playing gambling every day because that can makes us lose much money. We must use gambling as an entertainment so we don't spends too much money but we can still enjoy the gambling games. People who have luck can wins some money but they can't gets wins every time they playing gambling.

If they can realizes that, they will not trying to playing gambling too long or using too much money. They will still limits their gambling activity because they knows to prevents the big lose. They only needs to playing gambling as usual while waiting their turn to wins some money so they will stops playing gambling if they thinks it's enough to playing gambling.

Well just as it has the ability to be profitable that's the same way it has the ability to be self destructive too and thats why it's always advisable for everyone to know their limit with their gambling habits. There are some gamblers who tend to get lost in their quest to actually make some little profits from their session while gambling and that is basically the cause that results to the inability for them to quit the cause and accept the fact that they have lost.

Well I think I have won more than 20times in my gambling history but among the 20times I didn't use a huge amount of money on them because as a good gambler you are meant to know that wining a gambling bet is not easy, so for you not to lose much you can just gamble as you can afford to lose, because we all know that the possibility of wining is always slim. but in all I think I have won 100k but sometimes what is making us no to win gambling is fear because you we see that the game that we play fear will not allow you to play it with a huge amount, although the one that we not play you we see that you are going play it with a huge amount so that is gambling for you.
Your case is just one side of the story because you only stated the winning with no mention of the loss. If you have won 20 times, how many times have you lost? Like you said, the times you have won were with small amount of money, I think gambling is arranged in such a way that when you will win, you will be so fearful that you end up playing small amount but when you are about to lose, you will be so motivated to invest heavily. It has happened to me many times.

By the way, there will always be losses no matter how careful we are but what matters is for one to find a way of maximizing his winnings will cutting down on losses.

Every gambler always faces losses and profits, but never think that gambling as a potential profits, it will make our mentality changed. As for me, i never take gambling so seriously, if i take it serious in gambling, i believe that will changed my mind and will be addicted. So i agree that we should never considered gambling as a profitable source of income, too risky for our mentality and make us greedy, and the worst is it will make us into a deep loss.
Actually it is normal to believe that gambling is a profitable source of income but never to believe that this can fed you and your family in daily basis because of not surely you will keep feeling frustrating each time you lose .
Would agree on this and its really normal for people to think about that gambling is profitable. But it doesn't have any assurance that this is sustainable. If people seek for something stable income to get then maybe they cannot get in on gambling or casinos. But if their intention is to enjoy and doesn't think about huge winnings then I guess they are fine and good gambler especially if they know when to settle up then quit.

Also it maybe frustrating to a person who lose his money if he always think about winning and their expectation on possible gains didn't happen. So with this I guess its better for people not to became so greedy and just think about that gambling is only for entertainment since they can't get something huge unless they are so luck.
