It’s true, brother, for those who make a living from gambling, it turns out this is not the best way we will know once we get into the world of gambling.
Many of them are losing money for being too eager to make. But there are also some of them who get results, but it doesn’t seem like much, according to my monitor.
Gambling is fun, especially if it gives someone a victory. Maybe this is the real entertainment in gambling.

Each individual has his own point of view how he sees gambling. I appreciate your thoughts, from my side it will better go slow and keep learning. As I’ve been doing more research I came across to know gambling peaked my interest. Lot of us do gambling as a means of entertainment, but it also true there also lot of people making lots of money by living it.

Lucky to those who able to find the right spice dealing with this activities, those pro-gamblers who are capable of moving away with good profits, it's just few but they are really exist.

The fact remains that those who thinks that they are just doing this as source of entertainment continue to lose their money, while those who take it seriously are capable to get something and enjoy more.

Does less focus mean less opportunity to win? No, this is gambling we are talking about, focus or not, skilled or not you can still lose.

If that's the reality, then why would we still chase to improve our skills? have you read some stories about gamblers getting big money from poker tournament or sports bettor who made a living on it?

I mean, even in normal games like fps or moba, there isn't a guaranteed chance of winning even if we improve our skills. It's the same idea with gambling. Every game out there has some form or part where luck plays a huge part, and you're skill can literally do nothing about it.

FPS or MOBA is different.

It is not the same as that since these teams are practicing their strategies and plays every day, it is a game, and always remember that these games are played by 5 players. Your teammates' play can lift you all in a slump while you can't do that in gambling as you are doing your bettings all alone. In gambling, luck plays a huge part, in those games, skills play a huge part as it will be your weapon to turn around games by taking advantage of mistakes your opponent's made.

I really don't want to believe some gamblers view gambling as a career or a way to make a living with the level of uncertainties gambling comes with. There is virtually no way to justify the odds or what you tend to make out of a bet until it's all played out and as such, your assurance is as much as zero which is rather a hard way to live by as disappointments is always at the corner.
Viewing gambling as a third option after the first and second fails is just the best way to keep up.

But that is happening in many places and many gamblers. They think that gambling can be a job for them, giving them a way to make a living. They also see that many people lose their money in gambling, but that won't stop them from using gambling as a career. There is no assurance that gambling is not the way to make money, and if they still insist on trying to play gambling, they will see that they will lose the money.

Gambling is entertainment, and it should be like that. We don't need to try to make money from gambling because we have another option to make money, giving us the real way to make money.

Most of the people states that gambling is form of entertainment but the reality is different gambling is like business where people look to make more money from investing little money but most of them will get failed.

So in your view gambling is business or entertainment,answer honestly. Cheesy

I think depending on our mood, it could be business or it could be entertainment or both. At first, we play for entertainment but after a few wins that will get our mood excited, we think we will make more money, it is business.

Correct me but in the part of the gambler, I don't see anything business related here. On the part of the owners yes but for the gambler.
Do you consider gambling as a business too then if you're the gambler??

As a responsible gambler, we must see gambling as a form of entertainment only and nothing more. You will just get disappointed if you see gambling as a way to get more money.

I think unless you're a super gambling guru/genius ( like James Holzhauer who was the jeopardy champion who gambles for a living) approaching gambling as a hobby or entertainment is the best course of action. I know NFL very well, I watch it a ton, and have for many years..but even I know I'm outmatched by Vegas. Gambling as a job is super risky, obviously.

There is no stability in gambling earnings. This is a bad feature of this type of earnings. I watched interviews with some regular poker players where they talked about themselves, and almost all of them said that they would not like such earnings for their children. Because one big win in a tournament can alternate with several losses in others in tournaments with high buy-ins.

Business for the casino owners but for individuals, it ain't a business.

You'll be ending easily if you treat it as a business and yet you're new to it. But the feeling is real that you have explained, that's what we think whenever we're winning.

Hey, all of you considering gambling like activity, in meaning that "we are gambling and check our incentive to do it: entertainment or money"

Why not to add additional incentive: Monetize your knowledge in gambling. You're playing, playing and after few (or more) years you're telling something like "I'm experienced in gambling, look for how long i'm here. Buy my gambling course "From 1 dollar to million" for 50 % discount" Grin

I know enough examples of such stories, at least in russian gambling community.

I think people can stop after a decent win, the problem is not stopping that day, the problem is stopping for good. If you end up gambling 100 dollars and win 700 dollars, do you stop?

I mean sure you can stop for that day, or even that week, hell take the whole month off if you want, but eventually you come back and that is how casinos get you, not because you quit for a while but because you can't quit forever. That is the real trouble with gambling, sure you can win time to time but if you want to keep grinding and winning all the time, you are going to end up losing eventually.

For that I suggest games like poker, where casinos do not care who wins because they take a rake, so you could potentially win all the time without losing much if you are very good at it.

~ snip~ For that, you don't get too greedy when at any time you win in gambling. When you win, you'd better take a few days off to gamble, and enjoy your winnings, so you're more relaxed and entertained. Then play again in a fresher style, so you find new ideas for your next winning strategy.

If anyone can follow this method then we should call him a successful gambler. But the true fact is, we say gambling is fun, then take it seriously to make money. Most of the gambler don't stop after decent and good profit. Without taking a break they become greedy. And very few gamblers can accept the losses. For this the fun of gambling disappears. And no strategy can give the surety of profit.

Tbh, gambling is merely an entertainment for rich people. That is their game, why? Because they can afford to lose not like people that really work harder to have an amount of money that is come to them once in a blue moon. So, typically the customers of gambling is those people who wants to play with their money because in reality that amount of loss of money even if its a million, its nothing from them. I guess we should not be entertained with that.

Ohhh right, these was the idea that came into my mind when I was thinking of how Gambling would be an entertainment. Gambling is a rich's person problem when it comes to losing money but its a possible job to a striving person. Still, we cannot blame these rich people since some of them were born in it and some made money just by gambling specially some fanboys.

You are 100% right, there is nothing like improving skills in gambling, the fact still remain constant, that the more we gamble the more we lose, the more a gambler thinking he is more professional and gambling often is the beginning of his failure which will begin by using high amount of money to gamble leading to gambling addiction which will drain the whole money he has. Gambling is better be in the way we use low amount and never playing often.

My opinion with gambling just funny not wanna get more like investing and never have mind with gambling will me us rich, I know thousand time you try for gambling never give back with how much money lost from gambling, so I make gambling as funny only on weekend because I like football and try to make prediction with football match. Not good impact if you continue running with gambling site because there no chance for us to get more in gambling, always have feedback they will take back your profit from gambling. Better if you get jack pot better to left gambling and save with your profit, just take little to start gambling again. Never have mind when getting jack pot you try to double your betting money because is bad impact.

Gambling is fun and entertaining. But that applies if someone wins in gambling. Pleasure will turn to sadness if a person successively loses a gamble.
For that, you don't get too greedy when at any time you win in gambling. When you win, you'd better take a few days off to gamble,
and enjoy your winnings, so you're more relaxed and entertained. Then play again in a fresher style, so you find new ideas for your next winning strategy.

I do not know for whom it can be fun to lose money... For me it can be a nervous laugh when my bet does not win! Cheesy

Maybe he meant that for him the fun is to bet on his favorite team and watch the match despite the fact that it can lose?

Only wins can make you feel good if you gamble online. But it will be different from those who go to a physical casino because the atmosphere is much different. Hang out with friends, laugh and that's the reason why sometimes gambling at a physical casino is so much more fun. However, you can still have fun with sports betting, but only if you watch it with friend. Right, mate ?

Well tbh, the goal of most entertaining games is to win, and in the case of gambling, money is involved which makes it seem bad, but really it's just in essence, similar to how you win in other games. Also I agree with how casinos need to develop a social community whenever people gamble. It kind of feels lackluster if you just gamble without any community interaction with others playing the same game. Sure, there could be interactions, but that's through third-party applications and only the people inside those types of groups are able to discuss, not all. Sports betting can be a solo one, though both watching solo and with a friend can both have an enjoyable atmosphere.

Yes, if not to treat bets as a kind of earnings, but just to place bets on your favorite team, you can enjoy even more experience! Wink

I used to do exactly that, the emotions from the match turned out to be even stronger!
Of course, it's always nice to win, but it's also good to get emotions from the game!
