the percentage of people who win in gambling and the percentage of people who lose in gambling cannot be equated because it is clear that people who lose in gambling is higher than the people who wins in gambling so if we bring the statistics you will see the different between people that the benefited in gambling and the people who have not benefited in the gambling through winning and also losing so this things now will make you to have a limitation of your participation in gambling and also make you do not have hope every time that you win in the gambling often or you will lose
Higher loosing keeps the casino in the business and so they are often benefitting more from the losses, even if at a point there's a wave of winnings which passes that of losses he casinos still Will not be shutting down because they aren't there for the short time they are in the business for the long term so they believe future wins that will get them to recover every payments they have made is ahead, and the Gamblers never get satisfied regardless of how much they win, they always still want more.
I know that very well that once you are losing in Casino platform they are having joy because you're losing is a process of them making money from you so that is what gives casino platform, so from this theory I understood exactly your concept so I know very well that what you are saying is in line but if people often lose in one particular casino it will look as if no platform is a scam it is better for people to win and also experience loss in the casino platform so that there will be peace that is why we have to understand that the casino kind of gambling is very important for us to verify very well the one that is good to gamble with and the one that is not good for us to gamble

Gambling isn't a scam,you can't consider your losses on gambling a scam,if it were so how about your wins,don't you think is a scam also.Scam is defined as a dishonest plan for making money or getting an advantage, especially one that involves tricking people-(Cambridge dictionary).A fake casino site with the intention to trick victims can be considered a scam casino site, that's why it's would be very thoughtful for a gambler to look out for what agency that license a casino before depositing his/her hard earn money.It is also important to read reviews about casinos, though individuals are paid to write positive reviews on casinos,so if you're the type that believes reviews easily,you may be at the wrong place and think you're at the right place.
Gamble responsibly and gamble what you can afford to lose,so that you won't view gambling from a wrong perspective.Gambling is meant for fun and a lucky person goes home with a prize so don't get it twisted.

People may call gambling all manners of names, that is not the first of its kind whereby we will be hearing them calling such, but if we never had same experience of that nature with a gambling platform, then we should not join them towards calling with all manners of names, some were there gambling and not seeing it the same way others do, we can't believe in whatsoever thig we have them talk online, until we had the same experience or get convinced after making verifications.

Hi guys let have your view on this questions because only real gamblers will understand what I mean?
Is Gambling with your hard earned money Worth it because I have come to the conclusion that gambling is a scam
It depends on your view about what scam is, because for me scam is a trickish way of deceiving people to extort money from them whether directly or indirectly.  But in gambling the case is different because casino or gambling is made in a situation where people will try out their lucky if they can be able to win or not.  Gambling is not a must it is a game of willingness for a person to decide, but not in any way a scam.  It can only be a scam when you lose often than win. Meaning that someone who often lose will see gambling as scam but but not applicable to a person who wins regularly.
In short, we have a choice.
I think that's the problem with other gamblers. They try to blame it all on the online casino but the truth is before we make that bet we think about it first. It's not like something where you invested money and then the owner/developer ran away. The gambling site is still there, you just lost your bet. There's a choice not to gamble at all and that way we will save our money but because we want quick profits we do take the risk and it's called "gambling" for a reason. It's way different from investments where you do expect  something in return when the time is right.

You just need to be practical and accept that reality, we do have the choice and we pick whatever we decide, just like what you've said we treat gambling either source of entertainment or easy access to make money but once we lose our bets we will think differently to the point that we'll accused the site or the casino as a scam, if we do want to save our money best not to use the platform and that's it, if you are unwilling to let go whatever the amount that you'll going to deposit then better not to deposit at all.

People dont understand gambling. When they lose, its a scam. When they win its because they have skills. Nobody cares about luck, random and wants to spend a lot of time on gambling. If gambling was really a scam, nobody would ever win, and casinos would never distribute jackpots. Also people dont understand that they are not only gamblers, nor someone special, that the main prize is only for them, and they get really disappointed every time they lose, when according to their theory, they must have won every bet.
They forgot to understand that you can't win all the time you can't also loss all the time so for me gambling is never a scam because there are people also benefiting from gambling it is when you try to gamble with the amount you can't afford to loss and definitely loss it that is were some gamblers says that gambling is scam it is advisable to always bet or gamble with the amount of money we can afford to loss and we shouldn't also be addicted into gambling let's not also see gambling as a means to make money or a source of income.

I would say that people believe in themselves to much and expect to win every bet. All gambling games look very simple. For adults, all those games like counting 2+2. When they see how all is simplified, and when the lose, they find it hard to understand that. For them it cant be that they have lost, they were way to confident in their victory. So they start to blame everyone and everything in their loss. Notice how only those who have lost complain that gambling is scam. Something uncontrolled might happen, a person might accidentally win due to system bug, or unintentionally been using a method, that turns to be a cheat, and that such person will never confess in scamming. No one has ever said gambling is scam and I became rich by that.

that's true
the thing is that many gamblers are dellusional and have bad math skills
SOME are talented, keep track or everything and are really good on emotion and bankroll management, but these are few,
quite rare to find them.

The more have big hopes or the expectations that accumulate do not match expectations, the only thing get is heartache, until get into a commotion in  daily life that is not calm because of the effects you have created yourself. However, people who are addicted to gambling will not have a logical mind, they will not be aware of the actions they are doing, the more betting activities there are, the more uncontrollable chaos every day becomes. Basically, gambling is a place for entertainment
Those who gamble are like people who are romantically involved when hopes of great happiness appear at the beginning of the relationship but often these hopes are destroyed in the middle of the love journey  Grin, so is the gambler who has great expectations of winning and even in the end the unrealistic mindset and expectations are often the root of the problem in gambling, the hope of winning big can make someone continue to gamble and even those who win big will also be difficult to stop in pursuit of greed which in the end gamblers are trapped in huge losses that destroy their lives.

Oh my, I feel called, but it's not about gambling but about my relationship with my partner where I put too much hope and expectation which in the end of course it hurts when it turns out there is no appropriate reciprocity Cheesy, and your analogy is quite right that this scenario is also almost the same as the scenario that occurs in gambling especially those gamblers who come with too much obsession with winning.

So the point is in my opinion in general there is no other solution than to get used to considering from various sides with a rational point of view and wise thinking before you decide to get involved in something, because that way I think it is unlikely for someone to put unrealistic expectations.

It will be only a scam if you lose your money.

But for those who are winning big, then how can you call gambling a scam? There's a lot of proof already that someone has won big, thru lottery or even a jackpot in a casino so for them it's real as it gets.

However, for those that are losing money, they will call every excuses in the book and blame everyone except themselves and call gambling scams.

Can we now refer to every gambler that win as a scammer? Oh yes! Casinos will call them scammers because they win and run away with their money.

Op, you should have share the details of your conclusion with us to know what prompted you to such conclusion. Probably, you intend to talk about gambling platforms that scam their users and not gambling itself as a scam. Of course, we can not argue about some casinos involving in fraudulent acts or scamming their users directly or indirectly with shady excuses but gambling itself is not a scam.

It's your hard earned money but you decide to risk it for a bigger amount huh  Grin No one forces you to gamble with your hard earned money in the first place and what about if you end up winning? Will you agree to be addressed as a scammer? Oh yes, I guess because you may be walking away with casinos hard earned money too. It's a balance game and the fact that the gambling is mostly advantageous doesn't make it a scam.

gambling is basically an activity that involves luck to get a profit, besides that when they will gamble it is their own will not a demand from the casino there is no element of coercion that the casino does to other people for them to gamble. Unfortunately, not a few people think that winning in gambling will be easy to get so they tend to ignore the risk of greater defeat.

people who often experience defeat in my opinion they can not consider gambling a fraud because if their mindset by gambling is for entertainment then there will be no thought that gambling is a fraud, so in my opinion people who have the wrong response will say gambling is a fraud.

The act itself is a threat if not immediately avoided, but this is very difficult for people who are addicted to gambling. People who are deceived are people who have big ambitions to win for the umpteenth time, but without realizing it, successive defeats bring destruction closer. Consecutive defeats made them regret that they had been cheated, but they were deceived by their own hopes that had not been realized.

Every gambler certainly has the hope to win. Even several times the gambler gets his victory. Unfortunately, the hope is not by the gambler's expectations which results in the gambler being dissatisfied and trying to continue to get a bigger win.
What is wrong is the mindset of the gambler himself. A gambler who loses should not then accuse the casino of cheating him. You are right; the gambler himself is deceived by the hopes he created.

That is the difficult part for many people, especially beginners, as they don’t fully understand what they are getting into due to social media influencers hyping up that they surely win in gambling. What is even more frustrating is that they blame the casino for their losses and then call it a scam.

That is why I challenge anyone planning to gamble to educate themself first. They should understand the risks and the reality, or else they are just setting themselves failure. Because our ignorance leads to making false accusations that harm not just the gambling site but the entire industry.
People do love on pointing out fingers on the moment that they are losing on which its really that a very common action by someone on doing such activity. We do know that gambling isnt a scam on which you are the ones who do make such decision on playing gambling and as long you are playing on a legit site then i dont see any issues. People do really just that become that too greedy and thats why they do really make out such decisions on playing gambling and the ones who will be that be getting blamed is really just that towards themselves. Scam is only happening on the moment that you do deal up with gambling sites or platforms that doesnt give out that kind of fairness into their users.

In other words, scam is caused by human behavior. In this case, the casino owner is the scammer and gambling is used as a means to carry out his cheating. Obviously, this is not the fault of the gamble but the fault of the casino owner and the fault of the gambler. Because the gambler was careless in choosing the casino and chose the wrong scam casino, if we choose the right reputable casino, we will not be scammed.

After all, gambling is just a game, a means and product...created by humans like everything else created by humans. It cannot scam anyone and all scams are people using it to scam others. So instead of blaming gambling, let's blame the scammers or ourselves for our bottomless greed.
Yes, you are right because player just tempting when they see an interesting offer and want to get it without research for more. That makes them getting scam by the casino without they can get their money when they win. They even don't realize that the casino just want to take their money so they must make sure that they can research before they choose the casino.

Gambling is just a game and activity, same as other activities so we must be careful selecting the casino and not just register because of interesting promo. Many good casinos will serves them better if they can research so they must change their habit finding the casino and always search for more info.

Gambling is like a pyramid, it starts at the bottom when you start at first you are attracted by easy games like sport betting and poker, once you start to hit some wins in these games you immediately raise your stake as you think you are good so why settle for only these games, why not try blackjack next, and so on until you move to the top of the pyramid where the absolute most scamming games reside, yes you guessed it right, in there reside the slot machines from many providers, in fact all providers are scam, they take your money in the fastest way, just try or better never try buying the bonus in Pragmatic, Hacksaw and some other who let you use this feature, you will see that your money will fly instantly in the casino wallet.
Whatever that lets you play without knowing will turn out a scam. Especially if you easily risk your funds in the hope of creating big gains, that type of mindset can easily get scam. Gambling will never guarantee big and consistent gains, the only certain in gambling is that you’ll definitely lose, and even increase your losses if you tend to bet without caution.

Everyone will definitely say that when they experience defeat, "Gambling is a scam" and this is just a form of disappointment due to the defeat experienced. But in reality gambling is not a scam, the casino is a place that facilitates gambling games and we come to enjoy the game, and if we get a little profit then consider ourselves lucky.

If we say that gambling is a scam, it means that we really don't know what gambling is, because the rules of the game are clear that the possibility of losing is always greater than winning. So when we come to the casino, bring money that is ready to lose. and the casino can be said to be cheating, for example when we bet or gamble, and we win big but we can't make a withdrawal because it is held by the casino without any clear reason and reason.
it is individual understanding that will make people to feel That gambling is a scam, dumbling can be a scam when you are over desperate in gambling and then when you feel that don't bothering is what that will sustain you without you knowing that a gambling all about risk-taking because I know very well that if you know gambling from the beginning nobody will come up with that idea that the gambling is about scam despite that some platforms of casino using gambling mostly some casino platforms to scam people like 1xbit platform, from my own understanding gambling is not a scam

Right, so it's all about understanding or depending on the understanding and knowledge of a gambler regarding the concept of gambling actually.

This is the reason why we are always advised to approach everything using common sense and clear thinking, because that way it is less likely for you to end up misunderstanding what gambling really is.

Basically it is a fact as you said that gambling is a risk-taking activity which means an activity that risks losing your money, so try not to see everything from just one side, there is no free lunch, casinos not only provide the opportunity to win but also place the risk of losing as another part of the game, simply when you don't win then it means you lose money.

So the conclusion is that gamblers who say that gambling is a scam just because they have lost a lot of money, then maybe it can be said that they are losers who are only ready to win but not ready to accept the risk.
