I gamble just for fun, like I watch movies in the cinema. I do both of these things in my free time, but I don't do them too often because I am more concerned with the money being able to meet my family's daily needs. Only if there is money that is really not used for important things or anything else will I use it for gambling because I don't want to disturb the financial position that I have established every month. Actually, we have many more interesting things to do and not only gambling but often we are too lazy to start, so we prefer to use gambling as a fun activity. In fact, by gambling, we use money that may be more than we budgeted for.
I also gamble just for fun, but with the kind of money that I should use for other things that supposed to be fun. Instead of my friends and I should go and have fun at other places during the weekend, we can decide to go to casinos and have almost the same fun but with gambling which is the main reason. What that is very important is my family life and savings, I can not take any money that I supposed to save or spent on my family to gamble.

This have been discussed few times before and someone have to do it again maybe often, for those of you looking to become a gambler what is your motives behind it? To make money? Or to have some fun? Here is my advice to everyone of you.

Why not treat casinos the same ways like you are going to the movies or bowling? You are simply paying for the experience and the entertainment, it's either you enjoy it or you may not, can you feel me? You don't know how bad a movie can be until you watched it, so....

Casinos, either online or offline, isn't a place to win money for the 99% of people, but this same group of people want to confused or already confused themselves that they can make money gambling, this isn't the proper way. It's meant to be for fun and not so serious like your life depends on it.

If you want your life to goes on with ease, learn to be a fun gambler and not too dependent on gambling, this is what gets people f**ked, the reality of gambling is you win when it's not even expected, be a responsible gambler.


I beg to differ.
They are both fun but one is more social friendly than the other, no matter how you put it, casino is a place where people hang out to make some money while movies is pure social hangout where nobody will ever complain of what you come to do.

When I went to watch match, the way I get to entertain myself in a movie night is different from the I get entertainment in playing bet. Haven't been to any casino before but I have visit bet shops back then when gambling weren't really online, the likes of Betnaija and Nairabet in those days where fun to do. The feelings I have experienced over their actually is different from the fun of movie night.

I hope you do know that you can take your babe along for a movie night bit you can't do that when it comes to gambling like casino. If you go to play in a casino house, all your attention is going to be there unless you are a professional gambler but in a movie night, the atmosphere will be quiet, when you have pop corn and Pepsi, you forget about making money but in gambling, no matter how you try to swerve from the money aspect, you will want to make some money, give or take your attention will be there.
I respect your opinion but this topic isn't mainly focused on the difference, the lesson to learn from this topic is using that small amount as near as buying a ticket to watch movies, that's what I meant by setting your minds on small amount of money to gain some fun, sometimes I spent money on ticket and the movie will be disappointing, but since what we spent isn't something alarming, we are still going to be cool about it anyway.

Watching a football match is also the same, If you bet too much on a match you ain't going to enjoy the game, been social or not, your mind will be hoping for a win because you bet what you consider to be a lot of money, so you will panic anyway.

It's not the differences that I am pointing to, let's learn from this idea of comfortably watching movies as the same as gambling, we will be fine doing so, that's why every dollar bet on a game is nothing because its a dollar you betting, this is where all the fun will get to you.

True that! We can't argue that gambling isn't for entertainment, but mainly for typical gamblers. There are, however, advanced gamblers who see it as an opportunity to consistently make money. Let's not dwell on that too much, as I'm sure only a few can relate.

So, yes, gambling is entertainment, and we should just enjoy it. When we go to a cinema, we spend money to get entertained, and it's the same with gambling. Because if you spend more than you can afford to lose, you're no longer getting entertainment; you've driven yourself into the dark hole of problems.

The truth is that we can't pretend that gambling involves the expectation of something greater than you have given so that the other party is in loss to prove at least a winner. Winners always have price whichever the price is whether financial benefits or other gains of advantage. So cinema is totally for fun as primary purpose and even while at the cinema you can yet gamble out side for whatever you want to prove in the movie you are watching either to show you have seen it before and can tell the story in the movie. My point therefore is that even while relaxing at the movies you can gamble on a phenomenal with some other person or even your girlfriend or wife maybe not for cash but for a particular gain or advantage which could even be at the home front if you understand what I mean  Grin

Gambling is just something more than entertainment because majority of those embarking on it does not do it for the entertainment only.

As you look for this type of topic on this section, you'll definitely see a lot of it that were made before but still, it's a good idea to think that your gambling losses are like payments for the experience that you've gained in the casino. You can have that denial stage that you have gambled because you're all for the fun and you can think that you've gambled and loss and that money is good as payment to them. You can actually think of as many reasons as you can when you lose. It is also like a defense mechanism when you're all for the profit and then your plans aren't successful because all you're getting are losses. There's no need for one to admit that he's gambling for the profit and can just admit that he's paying for the experience so that he'll become a better gambler in the future. IMO, there's no problem whether you tell that you're up for the profit or for the experience and with that money you lose is fine as long as it is yours. What's shameful is when you gamble not with your money and either a loan or from someone who owns that money and you never told that you've used it for gambling.

This indeed has been discussed several times here, and i remember being an Op to one of such discussions. But then, i agree that this is something i suppose we can never stop discussing since we have a lot of gamblers today who are not gambling for the right reasons, which is to just have fun, but gambling for the wrong reasons, which is to make money.

If casinos were indeed a place to make money, i suppose many of us would be so damn rich right now. Gambling is solely a means of entertainment, it's called re-creational entertainment, the ability to make money through gambling i believe is what makes it recreational. But unfortunately, as it is with human beings, we like to abuse anything we know we can make money from, and this is why we have so many gamblers today not gambling for the real purpose as to why gambling is established, but rather, majority are gambling to make money, some don't even have a job and neither are they working to secure one, but rather, have decided to turn gambling into a profession or career
Such things as this is something we all should highly discourage within ourselves and our friends.

This is something that I often convey to the community on this forum by considering that defeat is only limited to us paying for the entertainment we play, for example watching a movie or other entertainment such as bowling something that is entertaining, for example the budget spent on entertainment is around $100 Do we have to regret it when the money runs out, just like in gambling? I don't think it's necessary as long as it's fun.

But sometimes people find it strange, even though this clearly makes more sense than using money that is not used, because any money will definitely be used. The meaning is that this thread is described in more detail, this is why don't chase losses that are actually unnecessary, playing gambling must make it happen. as entertainment, if you win, withdraw all the money, if you lose, just think of paying for all the entertainment, but you must still limit your budget so that it doesn't swell and exceed the limit and end up going bankrupt due to addiction, gambling wisely using a healthy mindset is the point.  Grin

Every time I feel like gambling, I don't think of any such motives, I just open a site and then try my luck. I know others might understand me because we are aware that most casinos are luck-based games, especially the provably fair games. I am no longer there to make money but only to have some fun.

Yeah, we may think that gambling is the same way as movie time but they are only similar in providing entertainment. They both involve money but in different ways, in the cinema, you are not expecting a return after paying and watching it, even if the movie is bad for you, there is no refund. In gambling, you might expect something in return if you win by luck.

For the movies though, there are trailers that you can see before you may want to watch that movie, so that is a bad analogy to begin with. Unlike when you go to casinos, you don't know if you are going to win or not. and 99% of the time is that you are going to lose.

Casinos, either online or offline, isn't a place to win money for the 99% of people, but this same group of people want to confused or already confused themselves that they can make money gambling, this isn't the proper way. It's meant to be for fun and not so serious like your life depends on it.

Yeah, but when you go to casinos, you will at least be positive and think that you are going to win. If not then good, at least bring money that you can afford to lose. So that it won't be a issue for you if you win or lose money.

If you want your life to goes on with ease, learn to be a fun gambler and not too dependent on gambling, this is what gets people f**ked, the reality of gambling is you win when it's not even expected, be a responsible gambler.

It's not that easy though because gambler will be gamblers. They are their to win some money no matter what. Of course, they will be entertained at some point. But if you continue to lose money just for the sake of being entertained, then think again.

You see comparing casinos as an adventure just like going to the cinema isn't a bad idea but casino is a game and cinema is an adventure, we play games in other to win despite the fact that most times we make loses in the pursuit to get winnings and moreover this gambling dealers also create this casinos for people to win or lose so in the quest to have fun at least one is also suppose to record some wins that's when the fun will be more funful.

Fun or no fun the motives of every gambler is to win as no one will gladly want to waste money all the time just because you are seeking for fun. There are many ways to have fun without involving money all the time. No matter the means by which people make money, be it easy way or hard way no one will be happy to deliberately lose money on casino just for fun.

I was gambling to make money, but I was taught a lesson. After the lesson learned, I later chose to use gambling to make fun because using it to make money will not actually make money for you but losses instead.

Casinos, either online or offline, isn't a place to win money for the 99% of people, but this same group of people want to confused or already confused themselves that they can make money gambling, this isn't the proper way. It's meant to be for fun and not so serious like your life depends on it.

If you want your life to goes on with ease, learn to be a fun gambler and not too dependent on gambling, this is what gets people f**ked, the reality of gambling is you win when it's not even expected, be a responsible gambler.
That is just it, but if you do not go beyond a small gambling budget like 5% of your weekly income spent on gambling weekly, you should not be very reckless of thinking not to have some strategies to help make the little you can make if possible.
