Topic: Is there any fun in losing while gambling - page 17. (Read 5698 times)

Losing is definitely not fun that's for sure. I don't think anyone is having fun when losing especially when it comes consecutively one after the other.
I think what is fun in gambling is when you lose then win then lose then win again, all of those mixed emotions and adrenaline and dopamine rushes makes it fun, if there is no win in between then it is not FUN.
All gamblers should expect losing whenever they are betting, losing is an inevitable option in gambling. There is many different reactions to losing; one could lose and decide to give up because he is too aware and afraid to lose more money because he simply can't afford another loss, another could raise his bet as an act of revenge or whatsoever to win double the amount he lost, one could get depressed the other could lose control and start doing some crazy things in a moment of rage... I don't think losing in gambling is fun for the types of people I mentioned here.
I still would love to see someone losing and still enjoying his loss

I will answer this way, at a point there is no fun in gambling if you are lossing more than you are gaining but could be a fun if you are gaining more than lossing. Now talking about lossing more than gaining there is no way is going to be seen as fun because your emotion has been drawn below positive expectation of maximizing output which could possibly lead to depression and this happens mostly when the money used is not an extra discretional income at your disposal at that point gambling tend not a be a fun, but on the opposite occasion where you gaining more than lossing wow gambling becomes a fun because the accumulated joy gotten from the number of times won has become more than the number of times loss giving a lead in the game it is has become a fun at that point. So whether gambling is a fun or  not should be seen in different perspective. There is no fun in gambling if you are lossing that is my conclusion you can only pretend to be happy when you are not.

Why would you even be happy when you are losing the logic is just kind of crazy if you ask me and that's why I feel gambling should strictly be done with money that when you loose, you won't be affected. It's understandable to see gambling as something that could earn you profit beside that's the whole essence of it becoming a business  because people lose and sometimes gain in business and the casino owners they know this and also majority of person take it as that too but the still it's always never fun to lose even of you are playing gambling for fun.

I have condemned this action of discussion before because the objective of everyone who is into gambling is to make money is not to gamble to catch fun but to ensure that you make money through,so those people who do say that gambling is all about fun I think that those people they are lying to their people, like me, I don't gamble because I want to gamble I gamble because I really wants win money, so if I tell anyone that the reason I'm doing such is to catch fun I'm telling them false information, because every gamblers have target and is ready to make money through gambling.

I think we agree that everyone does not like to lose, but it is an obligation if you want to engage in gambling then inevitably you must be prepared with the possibility of losing, because after all gambling is always inseparable from the name risk because it is part of gambling. This means that there are two choices in this case, if you want to keep gambling then obviously you have to be able to accept the fact of losing at the end of the session and if basically you don't want to experience any loss at all then obviously the decision is "not gambling at all", you can choose one of the two.

But on the other hand it's not easy to quit gambling completely, and I think it's fine if you still want to keep gambling because after all everyone has freedom of choice, and maybe another suggestion is that you better gamble with some things that are recommended, such as putting a lot of restrictions on your gambling activities such as in terms of putting a budget amount, try to only put a small amount of about 1% - 5% as well as setting limits in terms of time, not too often and this can make you less likely to lose significant amounts and you will not be too sick or disappointed.

Gambling should really be fun and you should really be that giving out that kind of importance but of course losing is really not something that fun which its normal for us human beings to be sad
and becoming that impulsive on the time that we are experiencing it. For those people who dont have that kind of control towards themselves then they do usually be ending up on having those impulsive approach which it causes for them to have those further problems on which we know that this is something that needs to be avoided in the first place. If you are someone whose
really that emotional and short tempered then 100% i would say that gambling isnt for you and better avoid it out while its still early.

I’m sure you already know that at the end of day what they did was prediction and analysis as at the long run, they wanted to hit two birds with just one stone which wouldn’t be possible but whatever the case might be, I’m already on the opinion that more people are majorly into gambling to make profits and that can’t be over emphasized and no matter how much fun we claim we’re having, if we sincerely analyze the whole system m, you’ll notice that winning a bet comes with its own excitement which can’t be overlooked.
With this few points I think we shouldn’t argue much but try looking things from this perspective that people are more into gambling for the money than fun as other ma claim.

There is no fun in gambling and losing. Gamblers bet to win losing is normal in gambling as all gamblers know that there is a win to lose here, getting angry after losing will take a worse form. Then the person will chase after victory and lose control. In fact there is no winning strategy in gambling, as it all depends to some extent on chance and chance. Every game involves an element of risk and even the most deliberate strategies cannot completely eliminate the possibility of losing. The key is to play responsibly and realize that gambling is entertainment and not a way to make money.

This question you've just asked only reminds me of the last female World Cup when the Nigerian Supper Falcons played against England. What most Nigerians around me did was to stake that England is going to win Nigeria in that match
 And can you guess their thought process for making such prediction? They did that so if at the end of the day Nigeria wins, the excitement alone won't make them look at the money they had used in the gamble and if England wins, they know they've won in the gamble and will go back home with their money as a consolation for the loss in the world cup so you see that It was more of fun rather than literally looking for money. Some people just want to place their money on a particular team because of the faith they have in that team and regardless of the outcome, they don't take It seriously. 

And no one wants to see losses in any case but people who gamble still want to do so because they think they have a chance of winning some money. They don't think about what would happen if they lost money while gambling and continued gambling which could cause them to experience even more losses. When they lose a certain amount of money, they think it is a normal thing that they will face when gambling, but this does not dampen their enthusiasm for gambling because they still think that their chances of winning are wide open. Disappointment and anger will become one and make them continue gambling without thinking about stopping for a moment. Pleasure will be replaced by disappointment when they experience defeat and this will continue to make them unwilling to stop gambling until they finally experience a very big loss.  They are unable to anticipate the disappointment and forget that it is something they have to accept if they gamble excessively.

If they could handle their gambling well, they would not experience such incidents because they could already estimate how much money they could afford to lose. This will make them careful in spending their money on gambling especially since they know that gambling is only for entertainment and will not provide income for them.

And frankly, do you feel and think those guys who claim they’re gambling for the drill are actually doing so for the drill and just for the fun ? Just as @2pizza41000BTC already said, that he also plays for the fun but also feels the losses  when  they come and that’s true as I agree with him that no matter how much fun people claim they’re having from gambling especially when the losses are too much, there is always some wish to they won and personally I think the primary goal of every gambler irrespective of every other claims is simply to make a win and stay profitable.

That's because the real fun that we gamblers are looking for is when we experience winning. The primary goal of gambling is to win because who would want to have fun losing money after taking the risk, right? However, many gamblers who frequently experience losses state that they gamble for the thrill of it, even if they end up losing. They do it to enjoy themselves and feel better, despite the financial losses.

In fact if it's a matter of conscience then anyone who participates in gambling with the smallest budget even if he participates for fun as a pastime still feels a little bad if he loses the bet. No matter how many people say that I gamble just for fun, I gamble for fun. Even if I lose here, I have no regrets, but I don't believe that. I myself participate in gambling just for fun but sometimes I lose in gambling but I regret a lot I am speaking from my situation this is my personal example.

Good, but playing games with money isn't the same as playing games without money, board games can be played without money when you play with only your friends, there won't be betting but going to a casino will make you bet and there is nothing that you call bet that doesn't work without money which means when you are losing there will be no fun until you start winning. Fun is free just the way you don't pay anyone for you to smile, but when you gamble to have fun you are also risking your self and your funds because you might lose your money and still be addicted.

Nowhere.

That's a good reason when you want to find out something new and that reasoning of yours don't click with it. If you want to get on it and say that you loss and it's fine because you've gained experience, no one can stop you in telling that. But as for the results, it's true that it might not be completed when you try to get on it and keep on losing.

Where's the fun in losing money? Probably I entangled my slots to ensure I'm balance in the system. Choosing money against all odds because that's the main reason I'm in the space in the first place, doing everything to gets the printing profits. I don't misused any opportunities I get because the slightest chance can skip one by and this use to be very painful. We're here complaining about the hard
Every loss tends to be transformed to as experienced by the vast numbers of gamblers. Everyone just keep driving harder for results which at the end of the day might not even complete.

There's no fun in losing money neither via gambling or neither those losing investment and businesses on which it would really be just that common that people would really be having those kind of reactions
on the time that they would be losing. Even we do say that you are really just that playing for fun but on the time that you are losing money then that fun would be replaced by disappointment and anger and this is something that we should be able to control because once we cant be able to do such thing then this is where issues and problems would really be starting up to surface. Be sensible and be wary towards your actions then
you should really be just that fine because if not then results or usually the outcome on dealing with gambling will really be happening into you.

The difference into those people who are really that making use of their money for gambling purposes and could afford to lose wont really be having those kind of reactions
on excessive manner since they are already anticipating it.

It seems that your statement is directed at gamblers who have good responsibility in their gambling so that losing is not a very disappointing result, on the other hand I understand that losing or losing is a result that is not very liked by most people, But if you are involved in gambling then obviously you must first agree with yourself that you must be one of those gamblers who is able to accept the fact of losing at the end of the session because gambling is always about two things namely between winning or losing and responsible gamblers have a different formula from some other gamblers in that they have an approach to gambling that is based on a proper understanding of what gambling activities are.

They understand that gambling is a risky activity but they always focus on risk management such as imposing a lot of limits both in terms of time to gamble and also in terms of putting a budget amount, and when you have the right understanding of gambling then you will only dare to gamble by putting a small amount or an amount that you can afford to lose because responsible gamblers understand that it is too risky to make gambling as an income so what they are looking for there is nothing more than fun or entertainment when they have free time.

Feeling happy while gambling can be fun, like winning a dance contest after downing a smoothie. But remember, winning shouldn't be the only source of enjoyment. Think of it like playing board games with friends – even if you lose, the company and fun make it worthwhile.

Losing sucks, even if you prepped your finances like a squirrel preparing for winter. But accepting it's part of the game, like getting a boo-boo while learning to skateboard, is key. Don't let it ruin your day – brush it off and remember, sometimes you win, sometimes you learn.

Now, some folks gamble for fun, others chase that sweet profit dragon. Both are cool, but remember, gambling ain't a guaranteed get-rich-quick scheme. Think of it like buying lottery tickets – it's fun, but don't quit your day job based on winning once.

See, the mindset of gambling matters so much in this context, that's why some will never believe that gamblers could lose and still be happy despite the losses. This is what I call fun part of it, and when you do not prioritise money-making in gambling, this is so possible, and you will just be playing and focusing on the gaming part rather than the outcome as a big deal. When the outcome comes in, it could be positive or negative, it doesn't matter, but what matters at that time is the feelings at which you are playing and getting the results for the money you are playing with, which is fun. But this is not as often easy as people may think, this is why a small amount of money is often used for this purpose to avoid issues.

Of course, if you are not a waster of money, you can't actually be losing huge amounts of money and be happy, it can't just be so convenient for people depending on the money they have and the magnitude at which they lose it. So, this point shows that it is not always easy, while the ugly thought of losing by some people makes it difficult for them to believe that it is possible. I've seen a lot of people on this forum who have argued this out, but in practice, it is possible. I am also a witness to with, especially when I am bored and do not want to engage myself in other hobbies In this situation, I do gamble but limit the wagering amount to the barest minimum possible. I also gamble for fun playing with my wife, it's just about the mood and the mindset involved.
