I don't think it is wrong wrong. But people need to control it. Sometime i place a bet and that's it.
No urge to play more or win something back. The game is over so i go on with something else.

Wrong? It is not worth it. You lose money.

You seem like you've lost some money you can't afford to lose in gambling that's why you are saying that Cheesy IMO its worth it if you played for fun and its will be definitely not if you gambled to earn profit. That's not what gambling was made for.

I do not have an experience to gambling.
But based on my understanding, it is not totally bad or wrong.
It depends to someone who plays it.

Yup! mate it is not partially wrong it depends on your perspective in gambling but many people are addicted to it and that is when gambling is gonna go bad because of it's addictive effect to some people.
it is true, the gambling game is just a game, one or not depends on the people who play the game, whether he bet or just play like another games

games such as sports betting may not be in the full sense of gambling, I think that the bets refer to the sport as an integral part of the event as a sort of empathize or fan

hello everyone.
i want to know what do you think about gambling bitcoin.. Does Beneficial or more losses?
Share your story here guys!  Grin Grin Grin
There is nothing wrong when you gamble, but in my country (Malaysia) online gambling is illegal.
It will leads to big loss if you do not know what you do when you gamble. Sometimes I win big and there is a time where I lose everything.
Just gamble what you can afford to lose.
better yet, dont even bother gambling and dont lose anything at all. people seem to get into this mindset of "its fine for me to lose this money since i can afford to," and end up throwing it away instead of saving it. something about gambling breeds this toxic and detrimental mindset, and it usually gets the better of people.

It is not wrong if a person is gambling with his own money and not borrowing money from others for his addiction. I have seen people who borrow money through the lending section just to gamble and they end up losing the cash and cheating the person whom they have borrowed from. That's horrible.
wrong, it does matter if its their own money theyre throwing away. it demonstrates their unwillingness to abandon gambling as well as their inability to understand that theyre throwing money away every time they open up a casino window in their browser. such an addiction will likely lead to the addict gambling borrowed money eventually either way.

Like someone above you said, it's only wrong when you make it wrong. If you make gambling a habit it will turn gambling into something wrong.
If not then you should be okay whether you're losing or winning. Losing is never good but if you can afford it you should be good.
this is the exact mindset im talking about. "its ok if i lose because i dont need the money for my basic needs to survive." people that think like this just throw away money when it could be better spent at places that arent casinos for entertainment that lasts more than a few passing seconds. this mentality of being okay with losing money is just wrong.

Gambling is good for you just twice a year, just don't play it all the time if you are not good at it.
Just play it for fun so what I am saying that gambling is not wrong to do.

Gambling is all fine and well but it is knowing when to walk away. Set amount you happy to gamble /lose and don't chase when you do go down
True. I find it funny that so many people here are against gambling and find it "wrong" isn't this a gambling forum? People who come here are gamblers so if you think it's wrong what are doing here?

It's wrong when you treat gambling wrong and start getting addicted to it. In general it's not wrong if you have some self control over yourself.
You should be okay if you got a decent mind set about money.

So true gambling is not wrong is the people who play it is doing bad. When they lose or get addicted or something else.
Gambling is just a game that you can play is just you can win or lose.

Gambling becomes wrong when you're getting addicted to it. If you gamble with a certain amount like once every month or so. You should be okay.
I have never seen gamblers who don't become addicts? I see all them is gambling addicts,
addicts there are short and there is a long addict

Lol if this is really an issue you should seek help. Or don't deposit bitcoin at all. I know the feeling but it just doesn't feel right to lose everything over a gamble.

Not just a simple help, he probably need a professional help , lol Cheesy But if that's really a serious problem to him, then go with my suggestion. A regular bitcointalk user can't a help him , a psychiatrist maybe. A spiritual advisor may also help. But in the end , it will all depend on him how eager is he to stop gambling, its just a matter of choice
