I think that the goal of almost any type of gambling is to earn money for a casino. Grin

Most often, people go for entertainment, atmosphere, adventure. Money only adds to the severity of the aftertaste of emotions.
The more influence a person plays with money, the more frustration he will have in case of failure and defeat.

Those who are not worried about the money spent are likely to get much more pleasure from the process.
Probably it all depends on the level of your income. If you bet the money you need, you will always be the loser, regardless of the result.

There are many who do not like gambling I think if you don't know how to gamble well you are more likely to lose here However, there are many professional traders who do not see gambling as a means of entertainment but as a means of earning money. The higher the profit the greater the loss Many would have left the game if they hadn't made money from now on Its main purpose is to make money.

Yesterday I won 235 Eur with a 0.4 Eur bet in the slot machine Swords and the Holy Grail of Play n Go provider in Sportsbet slot section.I made it to the last bonus round where you have 5 free spins with 100 multiplier.While I was playing I was bored as I thought I would never win big in gambling yet I won a super huge amount considering the initial bet and the amount won.That made my day and not always the idea is to make more money as I withdrew 165 Eur and bought some digital items I needed while saving about 80 Eur to play again.
Even if I lose now no problem as I got what I wanted.

You made the right choice to withdraw before playing again.
Sometimes when you win, you want to play more and eventually you are loosing all the money you have.
This behavior comes from the fact because the main purpose of gambling is to make money.

Unfortunately I got greedy.I start playing again and won another 400 Eur which I was not smart enough to withdraw at least 50% of the amount and instead I kept raising the bet because I thought maybe it is the day when I hit the jackpot and instead I hit the 0 money level.We should be smart and not let our emotions get us.I regret not withdrawing 200 Eur but the feeling to make more and more money got me.

But you did withdraw 165 EUR initially, didn't you? That's still a good win!

As for your another 400 EUR won, it's a pity you lost it, but let's look at the bright side. You won 165 EUR, and later learned a lesson on how greed can make you lose 400 EUR, BUT without losing a dime of your own money! (You were playing with those 80 EUR won previously, IIUYC).

You had your fun playing, you've learned a lesson, and you won some good money in the process. What more could one wish for?

For me, as long as you have fun and enjoy gambling there will be no problem. No one should change themselves and still be responsible regardless of the outcome of the game win or lose after gambling. Just be prepared and deal with the consequences. When I was gambling, I actually set a budget, so I knew if I needed to stop I would not be able to increase my losses. Overall, it's still more enjoyable and exciting to play gambling when you know and you know you can win and earn.

One thing that disturb me when people use gambling as a quickly rich making money opportunity is that chances of losing the money is much higher than making it.

You are right. When someone only focuses on earning money in an instant way, it makes him be out of control. Indeed, he probably plays massively till winning the gambling games with the amount of money as he dreams. However, the chance is rather small in gambling, even some games are purely based on luck. So, this way will only make a bigger chance to waste money if you cannot control yourself. In addition, this way also makes you never enjoy gambling games.

Gambling's sole purpose is for entertainment only but then, money was included and now it evolves. We have a different perspective on gambling, for some, it's a way of earning money and to the others, it's just for entertainment only.

I guess this differ to a person and their situation because some of them are bored with only gambling as a hobby and there are also merits to it. It's a one shot to becoming a millionaire. But for me i only play with small amount as i dont really play seriously, it's just my way to relieve stress and enjoy some challenges.

One thing that disturb me when people use gambling as a quickly rich making money opportunity is that chances of losing the money is much higher than making it. Also in order to earn money from it if they lose, they will keep playing till they win it and this may take much longer and at times people in this process becomes so much addict that they have many side effects of it.

Same with me, they thought it's an easy way to earn huge profit but in reality, it'll end up in huge losses because of that thinking. They will keep trying even though they're having a lose streak because they're blinded by the huge pot. I hope people wake up and think properly about spending money especially if it's money dedicated to your family.

My opinion on gambling would be based on my personal experience. So this is just sharing my thoughts on gambling and how one maybe able to earn money with that.

There is a big difference between a gambler that gambles because he just wants to gamble and a gambler who gambles smartly. The best smart gamblers in my opinion are poker and baccarat players and so far I have met many that can gamble smartly as if they are treating the game as a business. You can see some players gamble as if they are not losing money yet at the same time they are also not rich enough to have like unlimited cash.

Gamble smart, that should be your purpose of gambling. To treat it as a business and profit from it.

Yes, basically the main goal to gamble is for money. But not all people really want to earn money by gambling as the chance is rather small. They may just try luck while enjoying gambling games. So, actually a person to gamble has two purposes at the same time, for money and having fun. However, if there is a person to gamble only for fun, it is no problem. That's an individual right, but I guess he also tries to win, right? So, I'm with your opinion. Cheesy

Experiencing and doing this once is still ok but doing it twice or thrice then there is a problem already.

It is not only you who are experiencing this kind of situation. Even me when I'm still gambling experienced this. After I won in my sports betting when I'm still new to gambling, I choose not to withdraw my total funds which got tripled at that time and that is a bad decision for me. After putting all of my money and betting it in sports bet, I end up losing all of my money. I felt regret when it happened to me but after few hours of playing online games it is gone already.

Overall, don't let your emotions eat you and always learn to control yourself in any situation that can happen to you. You must've a plan when you are winning and at the same time when you are losing.

I've said here before that gambling is money. But because every gambler is different, some want to make real money, others are to have fun while others are entertained while making money. There are many gambling options so it depends on what you choose. Maybe, some say gambling is just for fun only because they don't make it.

I think you are wrong with the word "traders" that you used and it should be "gamblers".
Anyway, most of the gamblers think of the same way. They think that gambling is a form to make money in a quick and easy way. Although there are some gamblers who are just gambling for entertainment, deep inside they also want to earn money but still there are a few ones who are just gambling for fun at all. These are the disciplined ones.

The main purpose of gambling for me is to earn money in a quick way and I know that most of the gamblers think the same too. That is why there are many gamblers because they don't want to work hard to have some bucks. They want to test their luck thru gambling hoping that it can change their lives.

Well, there is a possibility of hitting the jackpot in many games, including dice, slots, lotto etc. You can even hit jackpot playing poker at some special tables(Remember Bad Beat Jackpot, when a very good hand loses to an even better one). So, yeah, all of us hope to earn money with gambling somewhere deep down inside. But it's one thing to hope to hit the jackpot, knowing that the probability of that is very slim, and it's entirely another thing to think that you can invent a strategy with which your profits are guaranteed. That's where the difference lies between regular gamblers(95% of all gamblers) and problem gamblers, who, contrary to popular belief, constitute a minority of all gamblers.

Does gambling have a main purpose, to start with?

Do you believe we are here for a reason?

If you had no time to waste in your life, would you still gamble anyway?

some interesting questions
will love to read your answers.(and more questions)

It doesn't mean that if you are gambling is you want to earn money. I use crypto currency in many different ways like mining, trading and gambling. I use mining when I want to earn money without investing, trading when I want to earn money wisely and with investing money and I use to gamble when I want to entertain my self when I am getting bored in doing trading and mining so I am one of the proof that when one user do gambling, it doesn't mean that they want to earn money.

But in no way or shape I ever gamble so I could make big profits and withdraw that and spend that, never have I done that before.

You are not a typical gambler, you are special, lol...

since you are just gambling for fun, the risk of getting yourself into trouble is very less, and I don't know if you feel the same thrill we do.
As for me, I always gambler for fun and at the same time winning money as well since that is the main purpose.

Losing is not good or hard but we need to accept if we are realistic, since in gambling, losing and winning are always possible.

What we can learn from your story is we need to stop the games and withdraw the money while we have time to do that. We can use that money to buy anything we want, and if we're going to deposit some money to play gambling in another day, we can do that. But if somehow, we lose that money, we will not feel too sad because we already won much money. That is a good story, and I hope that you can win another big cash someday.

You are right. It is the way to secure the prize from winning a certain gambling game. In several cases, after winning, the prize can disappear instantly if we continue playing and force our selves to have bigger prizes. It is better to break temporarily after winning and continue playing again tomorrow. Make our mind calm first!!

But remember that not all gamblers have the main purpose to earn money. Some can play gambling games for fun only without thinking about profits or losses. I saw in several discussions that they really play to get entertainment only. It is a fact!

Let's not talk about all gamblers like they are the same, I have talked about before how I do not gamble for money at all, to me gambling is something I have fun with and that's it, I do not see it as anything more. I personally feel like the best thing I could do with gambling would be to win money only to gamble even further, the less I deposit the more I am happy about it but in the end I know that I will gamble all my winnings and lose them, the difference between me gambling and losing versus me gambling and winning is the simple fact that when I win, I end up gambling even more to lose all of that, and that is very cool. But in no way or shape I ever gamble so I could make big profits and withdraw that and spend that, never have I done that before.

I feel like making money from gambling is not something you do with games that have house edge right? Like I get that you could want to be a professional poker player, there are literally people who make a living out of that, why? Because you are gambling against other people and there is no edge, so you could become a very good one and you could earn a living out of that. However when you are playing against games like dice for example, that game has house edge, how are you planning to make a living out of it? Or simply make money from it? I am not trying to diminish the idea, I am just trying to figure out how could anyone make money from something that has house edge, and can't think of any methods to do that at all.
