Majority say we gamble for fun. This is completely a false statement, because if there is no reward for the risk we take it shouldn't have gained such a popularity. People always want things to be achieved with ease and in short term. When we look on these factors, it is possible only through gambling. This is the prime reason to go for gambling without giving priority to investment.

Myself have gambled and lost big, once after losing my mind has thought several times I should've at least donated it to someone who is in need. This is most gamblers common mind.

Being bored has made me gamble, but the same hasn't caused addiction I just spend on sports betting. When things went out of my control I started to run to get back the loss which is where I lost everything.

This isn't pure entertainment, we can get entertained when we succeed but continued loss leads to frustration and stress. This way gambling isn't a fun zone or an entertainment platform.

I agree with you on every line you said. People just say it's an expensive entertainment but who the heck actually gets entertained when they lose money? Even a billionaire losing $1 would be sad for the loss. There are people who just want to gamble for money and to cover up they say they are doing for fun without expecting any profit and that's a lie!

Right people gamble to earn money and those who use to say that they are gambling for fun only or to entertainment I don't believe in it because for only entertainment we can use so many other ways apart from gambling. There are few sites where people gamble to enjoy spending the little money but I personally gamble because it's the best source to earn with enjoyment.

I agree with most of your point of view that people play gambling to win money but I disagree that gambling is the best source to earn money. Gambling is a very risky source of earning money because you may lose more than you may win form gambling.

I mostly gamble to get my time passed in a good way but I make sure I do not use more money in gambling.

I do gambling because, it is a way for me to earn some profits. I want also to experience to earn some money in gambling platform. Many gamblers when they feel their lucky in gambling they'll put it as their lifestyle and focus of their life. When we feel being addicted on that gambling it is difficult to stop. I do gambling as an entertainment and if it has a free time for that, I want also to think on what strategy that will suits for my plan and can win in that gambling. Gambling for me is a fun and it is quite challenging when I bet my money on the gambling platform and win it. Gambling is part of our culture, it is a new to way to earn money faster but if we don't have any lucky in gambling we must to stop gambling before we lost many assets.

In 2013 I've played poker for the first time, at that time I was unemployed, so I had to play for a living. Although there was a lot of risk but I had no choice. Embarrassed

Then at the end of the 2013 I got a job but even I couldn't quit the poker game sometimes I even play in my dream, many times I became a millionaire by playing in my dream.. Grin

Still I go to play with my friends but not for a living, Now I'm doing this only for fun and gamble on fixed cash games. My mind always says it’s okay I will get my money in with the odds in my favor. Wink

Maybe it's asked before, still, it will help us a lot.

Why do you gamble?

Why do you do not invest that money instead?
Why you do not donate them?

Because you are bored?
Because you are looking for entertainment?
Because you are going after the big score?

Why?

It is mainly because of the desire of being rich someday that's why I entered gambling. Though my desire is high to get all the wealth I could possibly recieve, I do not get myself involved in gambling too often. I only risk on gambles whenever I have excess income from my investments which I think can be considered as self control. If I would be too greedy and crave too much for money, there's only two things that may happen to me in gambling, I can either reach what I am aiming for or end up in lots of casualties which will eventually make me broke.

Maybe they say it truly but yeah people play it to earn money not only to have fun and my reason for it is to make money.

Yep. That's why I say the "main reason", it means there are other reasons. It is no problem to play gambling for fun, that's personal purpose. No one forbids it. But as you say, and you also did it, the real reason is for money. For example, you hope for extra money from doing gambling if you win it.

~~i think nobody here is gambling just because for the relaxing, those who are saying that they are playing just for the entertainment then i think they are presenting the lame excuse because gambling is for making money.

I agree with you. The main reason people to gamble should be for money since it takes capital to play and not really appropriate for fun. If someone wants to have fun, the must prefer to go outside or play online/ofline games. Moreover, someones shouldn't be fun if he loses in gambling continously. Cheesy

Maybe they say it truly but yeah people play it to earn money not only to have fun and my reason for it is to make money. I work in my office and before leaving for home I visit the casino and spend the little amount I often win and I get profit so I did not make gambling my only way of getting money but I have my job and I use to gamble for getting extra income.

The reason I do gamble because of the money even taking the risk just to have higher earning. Since gambling in crypto is much higher value than usually money we used for daily lives, some people taking the risk just to persuade their needs through gambling. Also gamble is good for entertainment because of the excitement you experience everytime you do gamble, just make sure know your limit.

Maybe some people search for entertainment in gambling, but not all people playing gambling because of entertainment. Other people will reason for playing gambling because of making money. But if they know that playing gambling cannot make money, they will not use gambling as a source of income. We have the same reason for playing gambling for fun and use free time to playing gambling.

Yes, different people, different perspective in life, maybe for me it is for entertainment and to some other, it is a way to earn more money and onl that. But all in all, gambling makes us happy.

I think if we can use gambling for entertainment, and we can get fun from gambling, we don't have to worry about the worst thing that might comes into gambling. Yes, gambling can make us happy, but gambling can also make us sad, especially if we lose money. So if we have the reason why we gamble and the reason is search fun and entertainment from gambling, we need to hold it strong and don't let the other reason come to us because that will happen to us when we win.

Gambling gives me relaxation and that feeling when I win was very satisfying. But if I will choose over traditional gambling and online Gambling I will go to online.
There are a lot of advantage online casinos can give and one of these is the anonimity. It keeps us more secure and convenient in our home. However, we nees to choose the best online casino so that we can secure our funds.

Quote from: Question123 on February 08, 2020, 09:44:10 AM

I'm a gambler more than few years from now and the main or primary reason why Im playing is because I hope I won money.
My money are seperated in gambling and investing so money for investing is secure because I use money that is really not need.
I think donating money is good but if you have personal needs you need to take yourself before others.

Sometimes when I'm bored I play gambling but even I did not feel that Im still playing , gambling give me entertainment and happiness when I play and when Im win . What ever you're reason just prioitize to earn money before everything else.

May you find happiness in playing gambling , not because you need more money or you want more money but because you are having fun doing it. And the rest will follow, I believe that when you do something and you are having fun on doing it, it makes you more productive and helps you sometimes to produce more ideas on how do you win that game, when you enjoy something you can do more and becomes more productive.

Entertainment is the correct reply in my sense. People are different I know that. Someone definitely think that making donations are much better and worthyer. But I'm not that type. I gamble to spend my free time on a nice wave, to take a risk and have some fun. To gain some profit from that also would be nice Wink

We're playing because we desire to win some money, but the most important thing once we're playing is to be wise once we win we can stop playing and return tomorrow. Also, maybe if something is going on well that day people might feel more enticed to gamble as they would believe that they have higher chances to win even though that is completely false. It's all literally just in peoples heads. The fake beliefs and fake hopes.

From my real life experience that is almost impossible.If I win I don’t like to stop,what I do is I save a few of the winnings like 15% of them and the other 85% I distribute between slot machines about 50% and 35% I play in sport betting.I play most of the winnings in slots hoping to hit some jackpot or high winnings through different bonus rounds.

Does that work for you? I mean, do you sometimes win big when you risk much of what you win? If you do, that's probably because you are skilled sports bettor, right? Well, I kind of think you risk too much (especially if you don't have the enough skills). I'll probably risk below 50% and save the remaining.

We have different risk appetite, some of us want a higher risks because of the high rewards and there are protective ones that can be considered as protective player. There is an excitement all the time when I'm taking big risks in gambling. Identifying the risks before playing a gambling is important in order to have prior knowledge if we can handle it or not.

It varies among people of course but their main goal is probably to win. We humans want something that has a chance of giving us larger returns that is why gambling was still there. This psychological factor makes us to bet even more specially when we experience to win. That feeling satisfies us.

There was a thread posted in this subtopic awhile ago asking on what matters whenever you gamble, either the process or the outcome. Most people have replied that the process is what makes gambling attractive, while the others replied the outcome of their decision.

Like what you have said, it varies per person on what they see and feel towards gambling. Some people who are financially struggling tend to look gambling as an avenue of gaining them quick profits, while people who are financially secured see this as a form of entertainment. Regardless, gambling will always be something that people would spend their time and find meaning to it.

I was thinking deep after I read your post. If all the money that I lost in gambling were being invested to crypto currencies, I am pretty sure that I am earning a huge profit by now.

But with all the mistakes that I made. I have no hard feelings to it because the main reason why I gamble is for past time only and I only gamble my extra money. That is why, I was not addicted to gambling. At first, I started gambling to NBA winners then poker comes next and I am not so sure if there will be more to come but if I will be bored again to these two, there is a big chance that I will look for another type of gambling.

People gamble because, gambling gives off thrill and entertainment. Gambling is like investing and trading, you do know what is at stake but, you have no knowledge on what might be the result of it. The difference is, gambling is more thrilling and exciting, faster to win or lose unlike investments. Much greater risk because, you couldn't analyze any charts to come up with something of your choice, it is pure probability and luck. If I would be gambling, the reason would be for a bigger profit. Big risk, big earnings.
