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.
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

Not much complicated really, only if algorithms and maths in gambling. But as soon as you start to calculate something, to try to win at the expense of mathematics, that's when gambling addiction appears, which entails losses and addiction. The only exception is poker and poker tournaments, where it is more of a sport than a gambling competition
It is not possible to win gambling through mathematical calculation, sometimes luck can match but if one thinks he is clever then he is the biggest fool because gambling results cannot be accurately predicted by any means. This is why it is said that gambling depends on luck. No one will ever make bad comments about gambling if they win continuously because they are benefiting from it but if someone keeps losing in gambling then they will make various bad comments. It's about emotions and it's natural that emotions run deep when it comes to gambling
For some games this may be possible when we play dice or do card games maybe sometimes this technique will be quite useful but in the end it is still difficult because even if we are smart enough in mathematical calculations but as you said in the end luck is the biggest deciding party in gambling so sometimes trying to research mathematically seems to waste more time than you think.

I personally don't want to think this is wrong because indeed this can be a suggestion in gambling to make us confident in the bets made but I would never do that because in my opinion this will only waste time where in the end gambling still loses and we spend time researching and calculating which is meaningless, so I stick with the assessment that gambling is still gambling regardless of the calculations we do right sometimes it is pure luck in the end because when gambling can be calculated mathematically, of course there will be many people who have managed to win a lot in gambling and the gambling business will not be as popular as it is today.

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.

some say that for the goddess of luck to smile at you, you have to respect her
there are the 4 kinds of luck too

gambling can be fun but it is also dangerous if you don't have control over it. you know what I mean?

You got me curious though, what do you mean there are 4 kinds of luck? Assuming there is actually something as luck that exists (outside of the laws of chance), we all tend to assume there are two kinds of luck: good luck and bad luck. Some would even mention there is the absence of luck (good and bad) when the gambler does not have neither a good nor a bad session.

So what would be the other two kinds of luck be?
Does it something have to do with some personal way you view gambling? because this is the first time I have read about more than two kinds of luck exist.

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

A scam is when you are deceived or tricked into performing an action for the benefit of what is usually a fraudster. People like to make grey areas and muddy the water when they don't understand something, but the vast majority of casinos, at least the ones you'll find advertised here (except those with lots of negative feedback) will be legit. The fact is gambling is one of the most lucrative businesses on the planet, so you have to be a pretty poor businessman in order to resort to scamming gamblers. If you treat your customers right and give them quality games, they will keep on coming back to pour money into these sites. Site owners can be completely open about the payout ratios and people will still be attracted to the infinitely small chance that they get a much high reward, for a single spin, than they put in.
Aside from those casinos that have large negative feedback and reviews that states that the casino is fraudulent in practise, all the other casinos that are advertised here are well reputable and far from being term a scam,, gambling in it nature is not scama and the outcome of a genuine gambling can not also be called scam this is because games outcomes are mathematically calculated to follow a pattern wether a win or lose at the same time so nothing fraudulent in their practice.

Gambling is not a scam, when gambling will be a scam is a process whereby you win in the gambling and the tram or the gambling websites refused to release what you win from their platform, unlike some platform of casino gambling websites that forum kicked or frown against when they were in the forum, because when you win from their platform mostly big amount, they will neither block not access the platform or they log you out.

So from my perspective, gambling is not a scam but if you're addicted in the gambling you will feel that gambling is a scam whereas gambling is not..the way you engage yourself in the gambling will make you to feel that gambling is all about scam.

There have been cases where gamblers were deprived of their wins on some casinos or bet sites we all know that it's obviously a scam, but gambling itself isn't a scam because no one actually promised to give you a certain amount for depositing. This is why I get really upset when gamblers act frustrated after losing a bet because they were supposed to know that they are getting into. Gambling is a 50/50 thing and you must always expect to lose the same way you hope to win. Gambling addicts always feel like they are being scammed by the casinos just like you said but they forget that it's a game of chance and luck.

Well, that's the real fact, so actually the impact of gambling is not caused by casinos or gambling but rather by the gambler himself as you believe, because in fact they also never win but often they waste the victory by instead applying greed for something much bigger, even though it is clear that in the concept of gambling there is always no certainty that you will always be able to win, or simply the next result is not determined by the previous result. So we agree here that the biggest mistake is from the perspective and mindset of the gambler himself in responding to gambling, they misunderstand what and how gambling really is so that in the end they treat this activity in an aggressive and excessive way, they do not understand that there is no certainty regarding victory and also they do not understand that defeat will always be part of the game, this is why we are always prohibited from putting excessive expectations because it will only make you more disappointed.

Therefore if there is someone who does not know the risks of gambling, even gamblers can lose all the money they bet, it is better not to gamble.
A casino is not a place to invest or a casino is not a place to save. If you are not ready to lose your bet money, it is better to put your money in the bank. Never try casino games or any bets. Such unpreparedness makes everything sound ridiculous.

Right, I think that's what people often forget, I mean people often jump in and get involved first before they know and understand what and how gambling really is until they are too late and have misunderstood, such as thinking that gambling is the right place to be used as an intermediary for earning income, and as we know that it is very difficult to return the mindset back to normal when they have misunderstood and are tempted by the name of victory in gambling which is also one of the reasons why it is very difficult to recover from addiction. So the point and conclusion is to always use your rational mindset and common sense well to first understand what and how gambling activities really are, because so far I think that's the only thing that can help you.

Yes, gambling is a business for the owners, but I think the owners don't participate much in gambling because they know that there is a possibility of losing money in gambling. Since the owners are running the gambling business, they are getting entertainment from it and they don't need to participate to get additional entertainment. In fact, those who lose everything to gambling are the ones who eventually consider gambling as a scam. There are many trusted casino platforms that have no fraud cases against them but they may consider gambling as a scam if they lose money due to their own mistakes while gambling.
The owner create casino as his business so he can produces money. But we don't deny that some casino owner scam their member and use gambling to trick them so they can gets their members money. The owner will be the scammer but the gambling still not a scam. Gambling is something that people use to make money but the owner scam their members.

So those people can not blame gambling is a scam but they can called the owner is a scammer because he runs his business without thinking about his members. So that is why we must makes sure that the casino is safe and we can trust it when we use it for playing gambling.

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.

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.

Gambling is not a scam and just like I always say,  gambling is a game of chance ( Grace) but some take it or call it luck which I don't believe but rather I believe on Grace. The reasons why some people say gambling is a scam or not good is because they are so unfortunate and don't have sufficient grace, I can tell you for free that there are people who are eating through gambling and there are also people who are suffering because of gamble and some thinks they win gamble because of luck or because they know how to play but that's wrong. Gambling with your hard eaned money is not a bad thing but it becomes bad when you turn an addict, that is gambling anyhow and lavishing your hard earned money and remember there are people who gamble with their hard earned money for fun.

some say that for the goddess of luck to smile at you, you have to respect her

Gambling itself is not a scam. Gambling is turned into scam by a scammer. A classic example of this is a card sharper. By the way, an experienced poker player who looks for weak players is certainly not an outright fraudster, but he is already becoming a bit like him. Since the search for a deliberately winning situation for yourself clearly contradicts excitement, chance or competition.
If a casino resorts to reconfiguring randomness algorithms, for example, making them sensitive to the size of bets, it also takes the path of fraud.

Yeah, absolutely.

A scam can be done in any realm of services.

You could be buying a phone and get scammed by the seller for example.

The act of gambling in itself, as you point out, is clearly not a scam in the general sense.

Maybe OP was thinking more about the fact that you can't really make money gambling.

The reason some people address gambling as a scam is most time due to frustration and some other stuff (like the casino been an actual scam) but not gambling it self, the reason most people easily get frustrated is that they usually use money they are not supposed to use are they usually put high expectations in gambling, and we all know that gambling is a game of luck you either win or lose .
Doesn't mean if you lose is scam , gambling is kinda hard because if it's easy it won't be fun.
Gambling itself is a business for the owners of course they have a better chance of winning than the users but there are also those who win gambling they consider gambling as an opportunity for luck but for those who lose a lot of money consider gambling as a fraud, everyone's views are different but there is also gambling that has indications of fraud therefore we must really choose a casino site that really has a good reputation.
If gambling is a scam, it will not be accepted by government to the point of legalizing it. It's a game of luck and luck comes by chance, which means that it's 50-50. Assuming you are not aware that you are vulnerable to losses, that's when it can be said to be a scam. However, gamblers should only gamble in a reputable casino to prevent them from falling into a real scam for using an unreputable casino.

Gambling developers entertain themselves by earning money and they stay away from gambling addiction. They involve themselves in gambling or casino business and attract more and more gamblers. Developers tend to increase the chances of winning more through their own perspective and manipulation and at the same time they start with sign up bonuses and very small amount of winnings for the gamblers and later the chances of gamblers losing increase. Yes there are some trustworthy platforms where gamblers get entertainment as per their expectations and earn money at the same time. You have to accept that most of them are scams and manipulations to snatch gamblers money. However you should refrain from gambling excessively to protect yourself from them.

I think there are more people who initially put high hopes in gambling and with the results that make them disappointed, they eventually claim that gambling is a scam because previously they thought that the existing victory was easy to get but in reality the victory in gambling is not easy to get because in any case the bookie will have a greater chance of winning than the chance of losing, so it is not surprising that players experience more defeats and that is natural, it's just because they have excessive expectations at first while it shouldn't be like that because victory in gambling can be said to be uncertain.

As you said, gambling is a game of luck so there is no certain victory that will be obtained, as well as gambling that requires skill.
