Topic: I know I lose money in gambling... - page 3. (Read 509 times)
When you are a user wearing a gambling sign, then you should no longer need to be confused about why you are still in the gambling circle. Because after all, you yourself are still a user who promotes gambling, so I think that can also be the reason why you still come back to gambling. But, if you want another reason, of course there is a hobby in sports, so users still involve betting for a challenge in a prediction. Thus, as long as users can still combine hobbies and gambling, then it will still be interesting to do even though winning at gambling remains difficult.
But I’m sure I’m not the only one, so I just want to hear from other gamblers here on why do we keep coming back, even though we know that in the long run, we’re losing?

This is because gamblers believe that they will be lucky to win a big which why gamblers keep on gambling to try their luck. It's when you overdo it, that it will affect you physically, mentally and emotionally. Gambling shouldn't be taken that serious in life, because it will always take from you, only if you are very lucky is when you will win big.

Some do keep coming back for more because they still believe to be possible to overcome losses and finally make a large profit.If gambling were a business, it would be like running a losing business something any smart business owner would shut down ASAP.

Others have gambling as a hobby. It's not everything about the profit made, but also the moments of fun enjoyed through this activity. When you spend money with a hobby, you don't calculate losses later. You pay to be entertained and to get satisfied. This logic is hard or not possible to be understood by those who gamble solely for profits, though.
Gambling used to be a social activity, where people interacted with each other at casinos. Now with online gambling some people have become more introspective, but there are also those gamblers who like participating online chats and sharing their guesses and predictions with small groups and communities. It's part of their hobby.

Don't get this in the wrong way. Every gambler who understands the concept of gambling will always visit their favorite gambling website or outlet to try their luck that does not mean they are addicted or can't control their buzz. Because gambling was created as a game of chance and as a gambler there's no way you won't want to try your luck even though the chance of winning is to favor the house but we all know nothing good comes easy.
The most important is playing the game profitably and never exceeding your limit.

It's expectation that keeps people going back. Yes, nothing else. The expectation that one day they will hit it big and their lifestyle transformed and they become financially empowered to achieve their material desires. Everyone lives for something. Otherwise, this life will be boring if there's no desire for something. A similitude of that feeling is what gambling affords us. Even those who know they're more likely not to win will still want to keep trying to see if luck shines on them.

If you're playing for fun and have no notion of making money from gambling, you will not ask why you keep playing. As a player, you never treat gambling as a business; doing so will make you disappointed because there is no guarantee that you can make money from gambling even if you employ all known strategies in gambling.
You can be a smart business owner and make money from a business, but you cannot apply the same to gambling, so you have to separate the two.

Gambling never promises a win, it is clearly a game of chance that can provide euphoria that can divert feelings of anxiety, worry and depression, These feelings then turn into addictive feelings. The only reason they come back again despite losing many times is because the purpose of gambling is not for the prospect of winning, gamblers have many motivations for their habit such as enjoying the process of betting and several other factors around it that make it fun for them. 
Even we know that we are just losing money by betting still we also knows that there's teeny tiny chance to hit the jackpot win and that's the driving force behind everyone's reason for gambling despite realizing the fact they lose more when they gamble more. Also the rush of dopamine that hit us while betting and the excitement of doing it making it somewhat addicted to it so we just keep doing it and who know's the luck will knock our doors.

I believe each of us, as gamblers, has the reason why we gamble. For some of us, the reason why we gamble is for fun; some gamblers are for social interaction and stress relief; and for others, gambling is a means to boost their self-confidence because winning in gambling actually does that.If gambling were a business, it would be like running a losing business something any smart business owner would shut down ASAP.

A gambler having any of the mentioned reasons in their mind as to why the gamble is an understandable idea, that many gamblers don't really care whether they lose often in gambling or not because gambling does give them what they desire each time they gamble

If you must know gamblers are the best sets of people who believes on positivities, winning can come anytime and quitting is the wrong option for them, even if there are people gambling for fun they wouldn't still quit or stop gambling because winning is unpredictable. In fact as a gambler stopping to gamble a month may seems losing the whole opportunity that could have used to secure winning at the time of inactive, that is why most gamblers always remain active to gamble, some could be targeting their loyalty rewards such as weekly bonuses or monthly bonuses in form of VIP level in that particular casino or gambling sites.

Just like you who might wonder why you keep coming back even though you already know the result can lose money, that's what other players feel, they might want to stop because they feel they're too deep in gambling but the result is they come back and come back again.If gambling were a business, it would be like running a losing business something any smart business owner would shut down ASAP.

What I feel is because gambling is always a fun activity even though it's possible to lose but it's always hard to resist the desire to play and never consider it as a way to earn income.

The fact is I'm a little skeptical on what to term this particular feeling and situation. Nevertheless two words do come to mind and they are Addiction and should I call the second hope?. This is because generally most people will quickly term an addict as someone who loses more than they win with in fact a huge gap. Gross win or net win is something that you can definitely use to track your gambling progress.If gambling were a business, it would be like running a losing business something any smart business owner would shut down ASAP.

The excitement of winning a relatively bigger jackpot compared to smaller fractions of losses that cumulate to a huge value is what gives the impression of false net profit sometimes.
There's this thing called "lucky day" for every gambler and its with this mindset that some of them use to gamble. Very true, you lose more than you win and that alone should stop any reasonable person because you're gradually depleting your funds but there's this belief that if they can just change their staking pattern or the picks they select, it could turn out well that's why most people keep gambling even when they will lose money.
We like to test it ourselves, and probably those who did think about YOLO (You Only Live Once), so why not take that chances so that there will be no what if for us? And as what most of us wanted to feel, the adrenaline rush in our body when we gamble because we really don't know what the outcome is. So every roll of the dice, every pull of the lever in the slot machines or the next turn cards in a baccarat games or poker or black jack, really excite us gamblers. So it's like a mix of psychological and emotional behavior that really makes us chase what we lose and still go for the thrill of it. So maybe it's not about the money itself, it's the feeling that we wanted to, the excitement that it can bring to us even for just a short period of time.

from my point of view when we go back to the games even knowing that the chances of winning are less than those of losing, we don't do it just for the money, I mainly think we go back to the games for the experience and what we feel when playing, the results could be in our favor or against us, but even if you lose the adrenaline rush you will feel it, it happens with everything in life, with love, extreme sports, forbidden relationships and many more.

Most people who enter this gambling industry become addicted, especially if this is the only way they can think of to make a profit from gambling.
I think I would have to disagree with you because if it's true then gambling industry wouldn’t be growing as the governments would have already banned gambling to prevent addiction. How many gambling addiction stories have you read? And do they even represent 50% of the total gambling population? If the answer is yes, then maybe I’d agree with you, but if not then it’s clear that majority of gamblers enjoy what they are doing.

Gambling for me personally is more of an escape. As someone who has no interest in entertainment in the outside world, does not like to socialize in the surrounding environment makes me prefer to be active on the internet almost every day and when I find gambling it is more like being given a way to spend time. Although it is true that we spend money in a day, it can be 2-3 times playing. But somehow this has become a routine activity that is difficult to leave. Therefore, gambling for me has become a place to enjoy my free time.If like that I advise you not to make gambling a escape, because as far as I know why you are looking for an escape then you are in a state of unfavorable or less stable and if you do gambling when our situation is unstable it can endanger us.
I agree more when gambling is done to be enjoyed with the aim of filling free time, because with this you should have good self -control not to overdo it in gambling. And losing money in gambling has become a definite right, and no one in my opinion can avoid defeat in gambling
Gambling is addictive that’s why we’re still here. But even if we’re losing money, as long as we enjoy the entertainment, it somehow justifies the losses.
Let’s be honest here, most of us are losing. Maybe some don’t track their losses, but deep inside, they know they’re in the negative.
So, let’s just keep enjoying it and we get the entertainment we’re looking for while also helping the gambling industry grow.
Kind of a win-win situation, right? Would you agree?

Especially if they experience a win at this casino, it will be the way for them to come back here again and again.
But I, even though I have been gambling for several years, I have never really had an addiction, maybe because I know how to limit myself and when I win even a little,
I stop and when I lose, I stop immediately.
But I’m sure I’m not the only one, so I just want to hear from other gamblers here on why do we keep coming back, even though we know that in the long run, we’re losing?

Hahahahahaha the concepts is very funny I must say because there is no gambler that has been in the environment without experiencing losses at some point but in my opinion, one of the reasons why we kept pushing on is that we also feel and hope for a better tomorrow of experiencing a winning and feel that excitement that comes with It, given up is not always the best thing to do especially when you are only gambling from part of your discretionary income, that is to say your personal and basic needs are well taken care and you only gamble to explore your curiosity with the hope of winning some day.
In the same manner that we also keep on going to the movies, attending concerts, visiting carnivals, travelling to other places, and so on even if we know that we're also losing money in the process.
Gambling is a form of entertainment. Just like the others, you have to spend money in order to experience the fun and thrill that you can get out of it. The good thing with gambling is that apart from the experience, you have the chance to actually make money.
But if one is gambling despite not being entertained in order to try making money, that's a pointless undertaking.
For example, many people play computer games, millions of players, because they like it, so why can't gamblers play the same way? I wouldn't call it a pointless activity, poker, for example, even develops several skills, such as mathematical calculations, forecasting, and even psychology.Gambling is a form of entertainment.

As for the fact that many people play gambling games, knowing that in the long run they are likely to be losers, I don't see anything wrong with that, because these players simply chose this kind of rest and pastime. Of course, if a gambler is unlucky too often, it will hurt his wallet, but I think the main thing is that it doesn't affect the family and its quality of life.
