Topic: Is there any fun in losing while gambling (Read 5706 times)

        -       Setting a budget for me is the most important thing that all gamblers should learn. Because when gamblers get used to this, whether they are rich or not, they will certainly be able to apply what is called self-control and self-discipline.

Of course, that's how you appear to be a responsible gambler at any casinos you enter or deposit their money into. This has been said many times by other communities, but most gambling communities ignore it.

Yeah, I agree.
If you spend your money while having fun - it's alright, you should adjust your mindset to it.
Otherwise - it's not for you. There are plenty of other things to try and to not have a burden behind you deep inside.

What about situation when you go to amusement park go to a scary ride and feel sick after it? Will you also call it not fun or not entertainment park, because you felt sick? There are also lots of gambling machines (like claw game, throwing balls into cans), where you spend money, but often fail to get a prize. Not everyone wins a plushie toy, yet it is fun to play. Should such parks be renamed into money losing parks then?

Once called entertainment means after finishing the game we will be very happy and relieve stress. But if someone says they gamble for fun but they don't feel happy when they lose then I don't think they gamble for fun. They gamble to make money but they don't want to admit it and the reason they gamble for fun is just to hide their money making behavior.

I used to think that gambling was just for fun sometimes but then I realized that when I gamble, I don't want to lose, I just want to win and the times I lose I don't feel happy. So I think no one gambles for fun, the main purpose is still to make money.

What you said is also true because after all when someone loses money especially in large amounts they will definitely still feel disappointed, but in context like this I would think much more that those who gamble for fun are someone who can use money that they can afford to lose so they don't feel disappointed if they lose.
Defeat for someone who is able to accept losing money and gambles only within their abilities can still create feelings of joy but not joy because they lost but the joy of having played some of their favorite games.
Moreover, if this is specifically in casino game, then no matter how great we are with any experience and strategy, in the end the percentage of defeat will always be much greater, endeavor making money from casino game will ultimately only make us lose more money.

It is indeed strange if someone loses in gambling and he is happy with the defeat that occurs, because the goal of most gamblers is to get a win, well from this victory the pleasure is created, sometimes someone when getting a big multiplier is happy even though it is not necessarily a win. With those who gamble for fun will not feel upset when losing, because I think they already know that losing is something that is certain to happen so they can accept it well but it does not mean they are happy either. Some gamblers usually do not want to experience defeat but there is nothing they can do other than accepting defeat because if they cannot accept defeat then what will happen is that emotions will arise by wanting to reverse the situation where the defeat that has occurred must be able to return, unfortunately that is something that is impossible to happen easily.

It's been said on several occasions that the term gambling for fun is just a way for gamblers to avoid the depression that comes with losses most times. Losing is not any fun and no one enjoys when they lose. The fun part in gambling is seeing your games or bet play into your direction of predictions. Aside from that, what fun will it be? Most big players often spend a lot on gambling, not that they enjoy their loss or wants to loss more but because their know how they play and recover from their loss. It's just being consistent. Gambling is more fun when we make win and that the reality about it

You would not feel happy because you are expecting something like making profits or winning in gambling but once the reality would slap into your face then you would really be having that sad moment on the time that you will be losing in gambling on which its a normal reaction to have or simply there's no fun in losing in gambling. If you are expecting too much then it will really be just that making you desperate. Instead on stopping when you do lose all of your gambling capital then you will really be trying out to play even more because you cant just accept into your condition.
When you do play gambling then you should really be that prepared that losing will really be part of it.

If from the beginning, as a gambler, the intention is to collect profit from gambling, then I think when they lose, they will not feel happy. Especially for those who rely on luck to get profit from gambling here at the casino.

But there are others who are still happy even if they lose when their only intention is to really have fun, and they really don't care if they lose because their only motive is to have fun.
It is because I felt this feelings most of the time actually.

We are just humans and on the time that we do lose money, then we do have these kind of ff:

1. Panic
2. Anxiety
3. Frustration
4. Anger
5. Disappointment

Everything is all the same and this one pertains about emotion aspect on which we know that human beings are really that highly reactive
when losing money. This is why its normal that it could have this kind of reaction on which i could say its normal and thats why self control
and discipline will really be that relevant into this kind of time or moment. On the time that you cant be able to have such control then it will
really be ending up on having that kind of huge problem.

An experienced player can lose their control from his gambling activity so their emotion can become high. That is why gamblers must know how to manage their emotion while playing gambling because gambling can attract them into somewhere that they don't realizes. They may forget their self control when they see the chance to win but if they remember that is just makes them stop gambling because they know that the chance to win will not too big than their losses. So they will not push themselves to continue gambling instead just stops to control their emotion. So they only lose their money before their losses comes for more. They know that there are no fun when they lose too big money because that can attract them to gambling aggressively.

Thats why its really that important that you should really know on what you are dealing with. If you are really that involved with gambling then anticipate or expect that losing and winning will really be the main
things that you would be able to encounter.On the moment that you do win up then it will really be giving out that kind of boost and on the time that you do lose up then it do brings out that frustration on which we know that this is something that will really be a normal human being reaction because no one really likes on losing money. There's no fun on losing money and this is where usually gamblers do become impulsive on the time or moment that they do become that desperate. We do know that money isnt something guaranteed or winning up on gambling yet it will really that depending or basing on how lucky you are.

If you could just that easily make yourself that accepts about on the winning and losing side of things when you do gamble then you wont really be that losing off that control and this is something very
important to mind off or think about on the time that you do gamble. Losing control would really be leading into disaster and this is why you should really be careful on the things or actions
that you are making and not really just that simply make yourself go all in or betting like a mad man.

In this matter, what can be considered interesting is the fact that the emotions of an experienced player, or more precisely, the balance of his grief from losing and joy from winning, constantly shifts towards softer experiences and eventually comes to some harmony of feeling, which can clearly be called positive and bright emotions from  gambling.  But this of course applies to experienced players.  Beginners may just have too strong feelings about losing.  And even more so from a series of losses. 
Sometimes they infuriate such a newcomer so much that not only he, but even close people suffer because he becomes extremely angry and irritable.

I don't think there is anybody that gain fun in gambling and losing at the same time. We want to be gambling and making money for ourselves not to be losing the money we have made it the once we tend to make. Gambling is meant to be fund and if we know how to make it a fun while making money for ourselves then it's better. We all keep looking for a better ways to keep making money from gaming and it's quite  good if we can work our strategies while looking for a good signal community to join so that we can keep trying our luck to make money for ourselves. It is sure that we would lose money but when we are determined, we are surely going to make profits.

The question is whether there is pleasure in losing when gambling? I think for this matter it depends quite a few factors, about what you are really looking for in gambling and if indeed your goal in gambling is to earn income then clearly losing is a situation that will never be pleasant.

That is one of the reasons why many of us suggest to only make gambling as a place to find entertainment when we have boring free time, because when money is not something you are looking for in gambling then it is unlikely for us to feel sad or disappointed or even depressed when we experience defeat.

That is because they know how to use gambling with right so they will not worried and upset if they lose their money. They know that win and lose is part of playing gambling but they understand that they can lose anytime while winning the games will still difficult. They will not force themselves to continue playing gambling especially when they lose because that can remove their fun from playing gambling. They will becomes more aggressive in playing gambling and that can effect to gets more losses. Besides that, they can have fun in gambling even if they lose because they comes to the casino is because to playing gambling using enough money and will not playing gambling excessively. They want to prevents the will of playing gambling because they realizes that can makes them suffer of their lose.

Yeah. We shouldn't charge into action even if the situation may seem bad because the funds that we use should be the ones that we are okay to spend in the first place. Emotions shouldn't carve the roads we walk, not only in gambling but in general too.

I really like this diagram because it shows how dangerous gambling is to the player's mind. And our human nature is such that we constantly believe in a good future, and the game takes advantage of this.
Failures hit gamblers in the face and they, instead of thinking about stopping, continue to play with renewed vigor and lose. And the shame is that sometimes they get winnings that give them new strength, but in the end all deposits are still zeroed out after an unsuccessful series of gambling games.

It seems to me that it is people who are not too worried and upset if they lost their money who become normal gamblers as they gain experience.  Losing is truly an inevitable part of the game, and such people, when they have gained experience, seem to almost not worry at all (but let’s say, they worry very, very little) about losing, but treat it with philosophical calm and restraint.  This is precisely what is a good incentive to continue playing into the next gaming session because the thought still appears in your head that winning is also an inevitable part of the game and it will definitely come even if not this time, then next time.  Indeed, such a day comes and it definitely brings joy and satisfaction and, by the way, the desire to continue playing.

On the time or moment that you do have that kind of perspective or mindset towards on that gambling sessions then most likely you would really be that losing all in the end of the line.
Losing is never been fun and thats why it would really be making up someone becomes impulsive on the time that they would really be losing up money on the time that they do gamble.
This is really that actually common and something that will really be an inevitable thing on the moment that you do play gambling. If you do hate up on losing money then gambling isnt for you
because this is really that a normal part when you do  gamble so it would really be better that you should really be accepting it out on the time that you do gamble on which losing
is really that just part of the game. Therefore, it would really be having sense that you should be accepting your fate or possible conditions on the moment that you do deal or engage with it.
