Not  all, no one is happy when they loose while gambling, but as a gambler it's part of the game and you have to accept the fact that either you win or lose. But in matters like this, if you loose above you gambling budget it can hurt you but if it's below then it just a normal cruise while having your fun in the game.

Every one perspective and experience can be different in gambling, for me the fun comes from my anticipation and the possibility of me winning regardless of the outcome and the social aspects of gambling. as long as I gamble according to my budget and limits, loosing does doesn't stop me from enjoying or having fun in gambling.

Honestly speaking I never understood the thought behind this statement until I came across this trick gamblers use, when we talk about fun we should set our emotions aside when staking a bet and sometimes people ask different questions concerning their emotions and fear when gambling, the reason why most people develop fear when gambling is because they used excess money to bet thinking they'll get more in return, this is when one can say I gamble for the money not for fun, although no one is expected to be happy when losing their money but if the money is little and you had no hope neither confidence of winning, you'll observe such person will be stress free. Have been in the game before and with all this I can proudly say I use just little amount to bet and I get excited with the game. All you need to do is develop the habit of gambling with the little you have and stop thinking about excess win.
Those that are only thinking on the profits or the loses they can obtain should avoid gambling as it is obvious they do not really understand what it is about, when a person travels to an exotic location and spends a lot of money to do it, almost no one really thinks that person is wasting their money, since they are exchanging their money for an experience they will remember for the rest of their lives, and while gambling is nowhere near as expensive, it still falls into the same category as something you just do to obtain some fun.
You have said well, gamblers with misconceptions can not understand gamble, when they lose they want to rebet because they haven't been able to understand gambling at all.
Gamblers who Chase's loses will always bet and get more lose again. Gambler with good understanding of gamble can not chase loses unless he's not much aware of the risk that been on gamble or when chasing loses.
One that have not experienced loving will never understand what losing is, and one who have chasesd losing will not understand what risk he's involved.

For me, I gamble to have fun, not to make money, it's not all about losing in gambling, there are still winners, but most of the others are losers. On my side, gambling is just like games or online games, I spend money to enjoy myself, do you get it? You may have also played online games, that's how I think about gambling, it's a game and it's true that it's fun to play, you just really need to control yourself and budget so you don't overdo it. If you keep losing in every game you play, you really won't be happy and that's really part of gambling and then you stop playing.
It depends on one's mindset and perspective towards it. People like us who gamble for fun and consider gambling games just like normal games that we play, barely have issues of getting addicted or overspending on gambling because we don't chase our losses or get emotional when we lose some money and we enjoy the game, more if we are winning and less if we are losing, but overall, it's all a fun experience for us.

However, people who have a different mindset and see gambling from a different perspective won't be able to do that because they don't see gambling games as normal games because they are more concerned about their money than the fun aspect of gambling which is why they easily get emotional and start chasing their losses when they start losing.

Yes, gambling is just for fun, and you don't need to bet big money to have fun. We can only enjoy gambling as entertainment, so we don't need to try too hard to win. Just let other people who still want to try hard because maybe they have other calculations than us. By being able to use gambling as entertainment, we will not think about gambling beyond the limits because that will only make us experience more losses. We must really be able to control ourselves when gambling so that we don't spend all the money we have. And gambling is not a place to make money, but gambling is just a place to have fun, so we should not forget that and not be too serious about gambling. If we are too serious, we will not be able to enjoy the atmosphere of gambling and also not be able to enjoy the free time we have. For this reason, we must also be able to have self-control and other important things when playing gambling so that we will not encounter problems when playing gambling. When we can win some money, we should not chase other wins because that can cause us to lose self-control and result in losing a lot of money.

Yes, it's true, we shouldn't be too serious about gambling, but we must take the problems and negative impacts of gambling seriously. and many of those who suffer from gambling addiction also experience losses in it because they often underestimate and ignore every little problem they find within themselves when gambling. And if we continue to ignore the problem, sooner or later the problem will become bigger and more complicated, so that it becomes very difficult to find a solution, which could result in us getting trapped in it (gambling addiction).

~

Gambling for fun as gamblers are mostly advised is just so that they wouldn't be so emotional in a case of losses because if gambling isn't played without emotions being involved then a lot of gamblers might run into mental health like their reasoning sometimes might be abstract from how others do as a result of thinking too deep because of a loss. No one is happy losing funds in gambling and call it fun so the fun there is actually referring to not being too attracted to gambling and peradventure becomes an addict.

without involving emotions, the bets we make will be ordinary, and perhaps we will not find the adrenaline and sensation when playing them. We need to involve emotions when gambling or placing a bet, to stimulate adrenaline and get pleasure from it. However, when you are too emotional, this will only lead to losses. Therefore, it is important for us to be able to control our emotions well, so that we can enjoy gambling and losses can be minimized properly.

Over the time, I’ve seen several post, by users here who, claim that gambling is strictly for fun, even when one is making losses and I’ve paused to ask this question “Is there actually any fun in gambling especially when the losses are more than the winnings?”
Let’s be frank, there are several other things one can do for fun aside gambling and I understand that life it’s own is a risk but seeing claims that people see gambling as fun even when making losses is weird and I think it’s worth discussion as to know if truly people gamble strictly for fun without minding if they’re losing or winning

If you bet without thinking about winning or losing, you don't need to analyze any team and just blindly putting your bet which not make sense at all. There are many gamblers talk about speculations and analysis, they're looking to win, but not necessary it must win.

There's a difference between gambling as best as possible and gambling only to make money.
Placing a bet without thinking about winning or losing still requires analyzing the match to determine the choice. Even though we don't think about the results, we still have to analyze because this will help us improve our analytical skills. And with improved analytical skills, the chances of winning will be greater even though we still depend on luck. And when we can win, we will be happy, and if we lose, we will not think about the loss because we placed a bet with the money we can afford.

Many gamblers want to win, so they will use many ways to win, including waiting for predictions from other people instead of analyzing them themselves. They think waiting for predictions from other people can shorten the time so they don't have to analyze like others. However, they will be unable to improve their analytical skills and will continue waiting for other people's predictions. Even though other people's predictions do not guarantee you can win.

~snip~
That's how it should be, gambling for fun and considering that gambling is just a form of entertainment. However, sometimes with the time we spend gambling, this view can change a little, namely when we get a number of wins that are quite large, which we have never had before. Where sometimes this win can change our paradigm towards gambling and can change our behavior in gambling. As we see that gambling is the easiest place to multiply money and make a profit, so in the end we gamble more than the reasonable limits that we have previously determined. Therefore, it is quite important for us to be able to control ourselves and our emotions well, so that this can make it easier for us to control the gambling activities we carry out. Another important thing is for us not to be too enthusiastic when winning gambling in large amounts. Big, we have to be able to act normally and if possible, when we win, immediately decide to withdraw from gambling to just rest and calm our emotions.
Yes, gambling is just for fun, and you don't need to bet big money to have fun. We can only enjoy gambling as entertainment, so we don't need to try too hard to win. Just let other people who still want to try hard because maybe they have other calculations than us. By being able to use gambling as entertainment, we will not think about gambling beyond the limits because that will only make us experience more losses. We must really be able to control ourselves when gambling so that we don't spend all the money we have. And gambling is not a place to make money, but gambling is just a place to have fun, so we should not forget that and not be too serious about gambling. If we are too serious, we will not be able to enjoy the atmosphere of gambling and also not be able to enjoy the free time we have. For this reason, we must also be able to have self-control and other important things when playing gambling so that we will not encounter problems when playing gambling. When we can win some money, we should not chase other wins because that can cause us to lose self-control and result in losing a lot of money.

Even the rich ones who doesn't care about the win/loss while gambling have little difficulty at some corner. This is common, because everyone wanting for win is common thing. I won't be feeling much bad while losing, as the amount wagered used to be very minimal. At times I play with the money necessary for other needs to add few more dollars, so that with the winning we can manage little more financial needs. Losing in those situations make me bad as I won't be able to meet the need for which I've allocated the money as well as the additional one planned with the winning money.

I understand that rich people or people who have above average financial strength will not care too much about the results of their bets especially when they lose, but this will be the beginning of disaster for a worse situation if losing continues to dominate and obviously the consequences will be that they will lose a very large amount even though they are basically one of the rich people, and that means of course we cannot distinguish between rich, middle or poor people in gambling, everyone can end up with the same downfall if they basically cannot control their gambling activities.

Betting by using money for other purposes or for other needs in life is an approach that is really not recommended, you must see that this is gambling which has absolutely no certainty of being able to produce a win at the end of the session, the worry is that when you are desperate to win to increase or multiply the money you have to meet more needs it ends up losing and in situations like this it is not uncommon for someone to be disappointed and emotional so that they take actions out of control to vent their emotions and end up losing all the money they have for their needs. Therefore it is always advisable to put the amount that we are able to account for and also that is not money for other needs.

For me personally, what I mean by gambling is for fun because I know and will be ready to accept all the risks of gambling. So if I win, I feel happy. If I lose, of course I will feel disappointed, and for me feeling disappointed is very natural because of course every time we play we hope to win, not lose.

So it doesn't mean that when you lose the game and are disappointed then you are said to not be gambling for fun. Gambling still has an expression that must be expressed and that is fine as long as it is under control. If you are excessively disappointed, such as not being able to sleep and thinking continuously which leads to stress, then this is dangerous for your concept of gambling, and you must fix it immediately.
Some people definitely think that gamblers who play gambling activities and think of it as having fun will definitely think that even if they lose they will still laugh out loud and it doesn't matter how much money they lose when gambling, even though it's not like that, not everyone who hopes to lose, everyone who gambles definitely wants to. win, but it depends on the person who responds to the defeat they face, there are people who are disappointed but forget about it and there are also people who are disappointed and can't forget it, so it can be said that gambling is not for fun.

I understand that everyone who gambles definitely doesn't want to feel deep disappointment, that's why they use smaller money and they can afford to lose, so even if they lose, they don't think too much about it with a heavy heart because if we keep thinking about this, it will make us stressed and think to recover losses therefore I consider it as a paid game for fun.

How can their be fun in losing while gambling? I can say the only people whom it will look like fun to while losing are the people who are financially stable and bouyant,they are the people that can be laughing and smiling while they are losing,but anyone that suffers before he gets money, must feel the pains in gambling while loosing.It is not always good to be a gambler because gambling exposes you to different things in life, occurrence that aren't always good to hear.
It's only when winning comes that we can say we are having fun because there is so much joy when we win Money.Or is there any other form of fun in loosing while gambling,I'm still yet to know.
There is no fun losing in gambling. Gamblers who frequently lose in gambling often display negative emotions such as anger, frustration, and sadness. Despite their differences, their ultimate goal is the same, it is to win. The thrill and excitement they seek occur when they achieve winning in gambling.

When I gamble, I feel quite happy, and often I even laugh. However, when the result is a defeat and I lose, let alone being able to feel happy, even smiling, it feels very difficult. Because what remains is only disappointment and regret, especially if I bet a fairly large amount, I really can't forget that disappointment.

It's normal to lose when gambling, but if you lose too often, it really makes me feel annoyed. And if I can't control my anger towards gambling, the result of constant fatigue. maybe now I don't have anything.

I don't have an unequivocal answer to this question. On the one hand, gambling can really be fun: The thrill: the excitement, the excitement, the chance to win all provide vivid emotions. Social interaction: games are an excuse to get together with friends, socialize, and laugh. On the other hand, losing can mar the fun. But I think everything here is purely individual: Attitude towards gambling: For some people losing is an annoying little thing, and for others - a tragedy. Financial situation: If a person can afford to lose, he will treat the game more calmly. Personality traits: People with a gambling character can lose control of themselves, which leads to problems.

It all depends on what you set your mind on, if you're gambling for fun, then you wouldn't mind loosing and everything will just turn a fun to you that you could actually loose a particular bet you played, but if you're gambling for money, you will be highly disappointed in seing that you loose while gambling, because the reason or purpose for playing that particular bet is for you to win and maybe earn from it, just that many of us seems to be forgetting that gambling is not that reliable for winning, we can have it even when we least expect to see it coming.

I personally don't like losing, do you? But we all know that losing is part of the game and it challenges us to crave for the win. Who else dreamed of losing? Losing can be painful but some gamblers are immune to it and they don't lose hope until they got the victory. If I lose all my funds for a particular gambling let's just say I spend $5-$10 I call it a bad day and better luck next time.
No one likes losing in gambling because after all even though we realize that losing and winning is a normal situation in gambling but still no one likes it if in the end we lose in the game that is done.
This is a very natural reaction bcause no one wants that but indeed in this case as you said that in gambling the biggest risk is losing and the potential for losing will be much greater than winning in the end.

But on the other hand we also have to be aware of the risk of gambling because after all we have to know the reactions that we bcause from the conditions that occur after gambling and defeat is accepted .
This is an important thing because after all we must realize that with this we can determine whether we deserve to be a gambler or not because if in the end if we have the mentality of a gambler we will definitely not be too bothered by losing even though it is very unpleasant but we must know that risks like this always happen.

No one per se enjoys losing but the reaction to the loss is what makes the difference and this reaction differs from person to person. Sound funny but true, some gamblers find a certain level of fun in the experience of losing in gambling. Some are also concerned with the social interaction among other gamblers and not the outcome of the game. Gamblers who are academically inclined can find pleasure in games like Poker and Blackjack and so the mental stimulation it provide is what matters to these people.

Let me point out that craving to win because we lost is not a good sign. A gambler can even record more losses if he is bent on recouping his losses. The inability to recoup the loss can lead to problems of anger, frustration, anxiety and even depression.
It can be understood that a person background when deciding to gamble is very different, winning or losing for some people who come with the aim of having fun will not have a big influence. Enjoying the game may be a pleasure in itself, logically the peak pleasure of gambling is winning or making a profit. There are also some people who gamble for classic reasons such as wanting to get rid of boredom, so for people like that, losses are not a big problem, but if they keep doing it, I think it will be problematic in the end.

In reality, the people we mentioned above are only exceptions to most gamblers, where their main goal in gambling is to make a profit and avoid losses. There is no other goal, pleasure can be channeled elsewhere according to one passion, gambling causes more losses than profits. On the other hand, I also wonder whether gamblers ever feel bored, because they do the same activities over and over again.
It would matter on self acceptance in regarding on what are the things that you would really be that able to just simply move on on the time that you would be losing and just proceed ahead
and continue to play just because you are already aware on what are the things that you would really be able to encounter on the time that you would really be dealing with gambling
on which we know that losing is inevitable plus the house is always that against us then it would be not shocking that we are really that in great disadvantage but of course everything
would really be just that depending on how well you would really be handling yourself. Luck factor will really be that always giving out that advantage
on winning the game but we know that this one comes randomly. Losing is inevitable and this is why self acceptance and control of emotions would be needed.
