And I thought the majority would vote no. Well, maybe because every gambler is different with each other; some play for money, some play for fun, some play just to play, whatever the reason you are playing, the main goal should be to play within our means and play with money that you can afford to lose
With or without dopamine and adrenaline, you gotta keep yourself safe.
Topic: If Gambling Cannot Excite You How Do You Play It? (Read 400 times)
I think it is still possible to gamble at any casino whether online or offline even without the so-called dopamine or adrenaline rush, because there are some who just play for fun
and no other reason.
Then there are others to pass the time or to relieve the stress problems they are facing. It can also depend on the reason of the gamblers. Maybe there are some gamblers who apply it when they are in a good mood to gamble and they are very positive that they will win a big amount, right?

The topic should interest me. It is either big tournaments like world cup and champions league, or it is politics. I don’t like to bet on luck based games because all them are basically dice games wearing a different color dress.
But betting on your favorite team or politician creates some heat and it sometimes raises my adrenaline levels when I get in debates but not always because later on I learned to ignore what other people think. It is all under my control nowadays.
So the answer is not a straight yes or no. It is in a gray area.

Hence my question: Is it possible to gamble without the dopamine and adrenaline?
I tried this on Crash and I cannot. The rush will always be there. How about you?

Hmm i dont know freen i also had same question : If Gambling Cannot Excite You How Do You Play It?
I mean when you gambling i believe there is always dopamine or atleast fear to lose you cant do gamble emotion less in my opinion.
When you win or lose it is easy that adrenaline filled up your body quickly, i used to play dice and my heart sometime beat fast when i hit win streak
The op @memehunter in the said thread only made a postulation about two different gambling dichotomy based on the supposed perceived results he thinks can be achieved in the different direction, which made sense to me after reading it.
Gamblers that expresses both the feeling of adrenaline, dopamine and research/skill development while gambling are those gamblers that doesn't take the activity as anything more orbless of an income source but are just cool with whatever results that surface while they tend to gamble responsibly. I don't know about addicted gamblers as I haven't been there!

Emphatic YES! It's weigh much possible to gamble without the release of the dopamine and the adrenaline. This isn't anything to debate on because those that called themselves professional gamblers or that mean real business with gambling (as a means of income) can relate to this perfectly. They can calmly subdue any form of excitement and lend serious concentration to the business of the day only to express excitement feeling (adrenaline or dopamine) when all is over and ending in their favour.

no matter how smart we might tend to be, we can not deny the fact that we don't gamble without dopamine and adrenaline. this are the things that excites us in gambling but we can apply with wisdom to not get addicted to it. not getting addicted is just a matter of being self discipline. all we just need is to be smart and skillful making research and working with past result a results and summing them up and getting a more reliable outcome. but though it is not that easy to win despite the fact that we work with skill, gambling still remains a game of luck.

So when you feel you become more excited, you should get away from gambling before that feeling makes you stay longer and you will difficult to stop playing gambling.
Well thats make sense having self control is a good discipline. However theres no such reason if theres no excitement in playing gambling right? Thats why some played due to the potential chance to win and that goes with excitement. Its impossible for someone not to exhibit an enormous feeling towards the game either its a winning moment or a losing streak. 
!
Hmm no? I mean I can start gambling without feeling anything but the rush of winning (mostly losing really) money just gets your engine cranking imo to the point that even if you don't want to, you WILL get your emotions hyped up. Doesn't matter if its winning or losing, as long as it's gambling it's going to get your engine revving up all of a sudden. What the OP who posted the chart mostly meant was an overall view of sorts? I mean you don't really decide what you do for your entire life when you're all revved up by dopamine the day before, so kind of two different things. Especially agree in crash lol. Just can't stop the hype there!
I guess so if you can reduce your intension of gambling and just want to fills your free time. You come to casino not because you want to wins but you just want too. You don't have a reason why you come to casino and only want to play some gambling games and just go home. It is normal if when you gambling, you still feels the dopamine and adrenaline because our feeling and emotion can change anytime. So when you feel you become more excited, you should get away from gambling before that feeling makes you stay longer and you will difficult to stop playing gambling.
You are making a point here, of one gambles at the initial start of a game without any feelings or so and without any thoughts on their mind it is alright but at a point When it becomes obvious that they start to have a thought of the winning and winning or vice versa, they should take a break from gambling that moment so they do not get carried away and find it difficult to stop playing because of the excitement they have started to develop as a result of the game they are or have been playing on the casino. So reducing intentions of gambling would help save one the stress of wanting to gamble more as a result of the results they get be it a positive or a negative result depending as the case may be.

People take gambling into a different forms of it, others would like to seek fun and entertainment so they play whatever they want and if they win they win if they lose its okay but sometimes emotions make them carried away and this time revenge with the casino is one of the common they would like to take their money back again and said just to get back their losses but ended up they lose more what they have, in playing gambling you can use your skills or your emotions but doing in a conscious way, you'd rather choose to leave once you lose already self control is a must you don't need to waste all of your money in just a single day or single mistake there's another day. I do with the +EV reason I choose playing sports bet because I know I'm good with it and also make a risk to the team i know i can trust still its a sports game anything can happen but with the lessen risk than taking slot games. Once I won settled the event and make next day play.
Whatever your approach to gambling, the most important thing is to keep your pocket and your mind safe.
That is why I want to remind all gamblers to be responsible enough and think twice before making decisions. Always remember that gambling won’t make us rich, nor will it give us a stable income. Yes, we might win now and then, but it has never been said that this is a way to a better life. It is better to know our position rather than expecting too much.

Apparently no you can not gamble without them because whenever someone is gambling there mindset is always set to that particular gamble whether for fun or for profit and this mindset is the collection of some organ, system etc or if not all... of the body and sometimes when playing this crash your mind and some parts of your body will be under pressure and sometimes the heart will be beating so fast and if someone mistakenly used what he or she can not afford to lose he or she will be so sad and in regret and sometimes this can cause depression and sometimes makes us transfer aggression which is not good so it is advisable to use what one can afford to let go in case of something like this.
It is possible, but I think it is difficult to consider it an enjoyable hobby. We all play precisely for the reward factor and the dopamine, otherwise there would be no point in playing just for the sake of playing. It would be like a person without feelings, empty and as a consequence, would soon abandon gambling... dopamine and emotion are the fuel for betting, it is not possible to continue playing without them.
Hence my question: Is it possible to gamble without the dopamine and adrenaline?
For me, no, if you play and not getting excited and there are no rush, then it's better to stop it. I think it's critical before you play, because there are days that you are really eager to play and believed in yourself that you are luck and could potentially win big. So that' where the dopamine and adrenaline enter, before at the start of the game and it will remain throughout after.
But at the start you don't feel nothing, then it's not gambling per se. I mean how can you enjoy and have some fun if you don't have that kind emotions?
I haven't experience it though, want I gone through is that after that adrenaline rush, I'm feeling down with no energy. Specially if I played in land base casinos, when I go home, I feel very hungry and down at the same time, as if I was in a low blood.
People have different reasons for engaging in gambling and their reasons determines the levels of dopamine. A person that gambles for the thrill of it, to have fun and experience the excitement of staking their money is not desperate to win. There are people who gamble as a means to get rich quick, these category of gamblers don't engage in it to increase their dopamine, infact they don't care about gambling to have fun. People who enjoy gambling as a recreation to enjoy themselves are mainly those that don't engage in it to get rich. I know people who gamble everyday, not because they see gambling as fun but because they're desperate to win.
People always produce dopamine when they experience something pleasant, not as a result. Therefore, those who become addicted to gambling want to get as much dopamine as possible, and the process of the game itself is important to them, no matter how the game ends. Any activity that brings pleasure to a person will be supplemented by the release of dopamine, and therefore we call it either a hobby or a passion. However, those who place bets from time to time do not necessarily experience a sense of satisfaction. The game does not always end with the desired result, but to have a desire to gamble more often, it is necessary to have an example of winning. The feeling or understanding of victory becomes memorable, something that you want to repeat very frequently.
Hence my question: Is it possible to gamble without the dopamine and adrenaline?
How does it feel to play without excitement? Is it possible to have sex without desire or arousal? Gambling is not a job, or some kind of routine activity. By the way, a lot of things in a person's life depend on luck, even a person's fate can change by chance. So gambling is a concentrate of chance, luck or bad luck, in a way it is a simplified model of fate. Playing them without excitement is the same as living without desire, like a person in a catatonic stupor.
However, this is purely my subjective opinion. I do not exclude that there are non-gambling "gamblers-accountants" who treat gambling in a completely different way.
I guess I can't gamble if I don't get dopamine and adrenaline. A good example of such a game is gambling on a demo account. Since there are no risks and rewards the game stops being interesting after 10 minutes. Frankly, I do not understand those who can play gambling on a demo account. The only option in my opinion gambling without money is with gambling with friends. In such a game as money is a reputation. Perhaps because of this game allows you to get adrenaline and dopamine, but of course not in such quantity as when gambling for money.
Dopamine just creates a kind of reflection in the brain of the temporary feeling of gambling, where if you win a gambling bet, dopamine will create a feeling of pleasure in the brain in a physiological process, and it will be temporary. Even if defeated again, dopamine will create a kind of sad feeling in the brain and that too will be temporary. Dopamine will signal your gambling feelings to the brain only for a short period of time but it will not have any lasting effects on your brain.
It turns out that a player can simply entertain himself with gambling if he is bored. I use gambling for this purpose and do not have any illusions about huge winnings, although of course I will be happy if I am lucky. I just realized that we should never be upset when we lose, because losing is part of the process and the game, I learned to perceive it as a natural thing. Perhaps if most players understood this, they would not try to win back their last money to the last penny.However, we are just only humans and it is just normal reaction to get excited if there is money involved in the process. It is like innate nature of wanting to achieve something to gain some type of reward from what you are doing. So it is understandable that we will release dopamine and adrenaline, win or lose. Unless, you have no emotions at all, which we are not as we are not robots.
