It is not for every person. I have been gambling for years on bitcoin world now but since I do not have access to real life casinos this is the closest I can get. I also tried my hand onpokerstars as well which is as real as it can get. Unfortuantely some of us are not living in a place where gambling is allowed, so we have to try our hand on websites that offers it.
Since bitcoin is mostly not seen by goverments us playing with bitcoin to gamble on websites is a way to at least gain some real life gambling fun. I have always loved it and always spent some of my income as "hobby" instead of actually aiming to win money or save my life with the income of it. I full on start gambling every time with the knowledge that I will lose all of that money, sometimes I do and thats ok because its fun but sometimes I win and thats a good surprise.
Topic: Really! Where is the fun at? - page 10. (Read 2733 times)
This thread is actually for those who have one way or the other mentioned on this section of the forum about catching fun in online gambling so as not to get addicted, which I am sure I am not the only person who must have come across this.
I totally understand that you can at least have some fun in real life casinos since there are people around you can gist with, you can even go with friends, there are other activities you get to lay your hands on etc, which can actually divert your attention from the impulse that comes with gambling and rather focus on the fun, instead of trying to win at all cost.
However, in online gambling, I really want to hear from those who said they can have fun doing so, which to me, it is more like virtually everyone gambling online is actually in it for the money. At least, I have gambled on freebitco.in dice few times, and I was bored as (whatever you want to fill in here), with the whole martingale strategy, that I had to look for a script to use while I just kept doing some other activities. Although, I know some platforms like cryptogames have a chat system where you can converse with other gamblers, but all these to me, still does not sound like fun compared to traditional level.
Please enlighten me just in case I am missing something here or do you share the same view?
In online gambling we can't have much fun as we can get in the real life casinos but we need to agree that most of the gamblers are gambling for money not for the entertainment so they don't care about where they are playing.But still we cn have excitement while playing in online that is we call it as adrenaline pump but don't ask for too much adrenaline because it will cost much.

People have different reasons why they are involved in gambling. Some would prefer in an online gambling because they don't want to be hassle and wanted to be alone. What makes it more interesting in an online gambling is we are comfortable and have the chance to get more focused. The excitement is only about the winning moment and not focusedly thinking about lossing. Furthermore, OP seems to be right that it is more fun gambling the traditional ways because we can interact directly with players and online gambling only focused on winning.

If you are in search of online gambling fun then you have to gamble on that site where Chat is enabled so that you can chat with users and do betting , this way you will be getting fun just like gambling in real casino. Other then that it will be boring as you are gambling alone in front of compter / mobile where no one is their with you just sitting single and gambling. But if you are playing poker then you can have fun as real player poker will always keep you entertained as you will be observing the other players playing pattern and play according to it. So it will keep you busy and active.
Most games aren't necessarily what I would define as "fun" they're more entertaining, capturing your immediate attention, rather than your long term interest. I think that you can consider trading type games, e.g. Cryptokitties as a gambling type game, but definitely more interactive than your typical slots or dice games. I guess it's quite sad that there aren't any real AAA type games that have a fun gambling type element to them, I could imagine a game like The Witcher could integrate PVP betting for its card game, but just nobody has ever taken the time to build something for us like that 
because the fun of playing gambling can not be expressed in words as well as hobbies there is a certain happy feeling and everyone has different happy feelings.

Well I guess a lot of people "confuse" fun with thrill, or maybe they don't and they simply have fun when they are "nervous", or have that uncertainty feeling in their stomach, when they are waiting for their numbers to come out during a spin in the roulette or a through of the dice. They can of course get that as well in online gambling.
Not saying I don't agree with you, and in my personal experience I prefer gambling on land base casinos, instead of doing it online. I even tried those online casino that have a live cam, but it's of course not the same thing. I do have fun when I'm playing poker, both online and live poker, but that is because I actually like the game.
So bottom line here, I guess it all depends on what people feel as fun, since fun is actually a feeling, and could be triggered differently for different persons.

then I think you don't think that playing gambling is not fun. maybe you don't have to use any strategy in any of gambling games and only play randomly without thinking about win or lose. and if you can do this, I think you can get the point of "having fun" in the gambling games and you do not feel boring in that games. just trying to not stay for a long times in the games and don't deposit any coins in that site and only use the faucet to place the bets. it will good if the gambling site has a chat function so you can talk with other people while you played gambling.
It all depends from which angle are you seeing this, you go in a real casino no one even blinks a eye or even wishes to speak with you, but here online I see strangers who seem like family, they feel the pain, they celebrate success. Best part is the banter and that's what you really miss in a real casino, and at times the rain which never will happen at a real casino.
It's subjective. It depends on the mind set. Whats fun to you, might not be fun to me. Me I find Online gambling fun, maybe its because going online I can focus on what I am doing instead of the noise in the background for the traditional gambling. I can gamble with just a few dollars but in traditional gambling they will ask first if I have enough money to play. They will even look at how I dress up, I come in with tattered jeans most likely I will never get past that 1st line of security.
As an online gambler, i'm not like those who are saying "i'm playing small amount for fun" or "I had fun eventhough I lose", tsk. I'm only having fun if i'm having a good run, that's all. Lossing any amount isn't fun. Eventhough you played small amount, you're lying if you didn't think of turning it into huge amount once you go into a site. There's no fun in online gambling aside from winning.
I only bet now for adding some excitement with the team I'm supporting, I can say that its enjoyable while you are watching and hoping that your team will win, I don't know about other's point of view regarding how they can get any enjoyment playing or betting online, from your position and example you point that being with many people including your friends finds enjoyable to play the game, but for me I can say that I rather to choose playing alone with my own computer and make myself anonymous and privately enjoying the game.

It depends on the way how you look to gambling. What's fun for someone may make you anxious and and oppsitely. But of course every online casino suggest you not to play for profit. Well look it like this: You gamble online and pay a small in order to play your favourite game. That's the only thing I can imagine to be fair.

If you don't find online gambling is fun then, maybe you don't like to gambling, we are looking for the excitement when placing the bet, for me its fun to try different strategies to try to beat down the house, counting probability and come out with new strategy to try, for me is very exciting, especially when your strategy is effective and you can win some money
Observing the live chat of some sites, you'll still notice that some players are having fun "chatting" with other players. Also, not everyone is capable of going to physical casinos due to financial reasons which you can do in online casinos even you don't have money for betting. Although most gamblers really play for the money, some gamblers still control their selves and just play for fun.
Even in offline gambling, a lot of gamblers play for money. However the percentage may be low than online gambling. A major percentage of people plays online gambling for money rather than fun. Also offline gambling is costly for many people because of the ancillary costs involved with it where online gambling doesn't require any ancillary cost, just the money you want to play with. That is the reason why a major percentage play for money over entertainment in online gambling.
But addiction to it solely depends on an individual and certainly not falls within the scope of this thread.

It is true that real life casinos are more fun and you can talk to people and get to known the face to face, but that is a thing that not all people could do, some people can't traval miles to good casinos to gamble, some online gambling sites have chat rooms forums and discord chanells where you can talk to people, I know that does not sound fun but through them you could know people and even meet them online, one of my best friends I got to know them from a chat room.
You are correct that the atmosphere in a physical casino is much more appealing. And something such as planning a trip to Las Vegas is an event the entire family can go to. None of this is possible at an online casino.
The online gambling isn't only geared towards gambling addicts. For many people like myself I just play because I find it more appealing compared to video games and I usually only play to kill time.
Other people like hardcore gamers they play Counterstrike all day and playing dice is no different. You control your risk so you can bet like 1 Satoshi per bet and you are doing it purely out of fun.
Also there are gambling addicts that frequent casinos also, its not only an online thing. Pretty sure there are more physical casino addicts than a online casino.

I don't think people expect that kind of atmosphere at an online casino though. Both online and offline casinos have their benefits, if you wanted the full experience you would of course visit a real brick and mortar place, but sometimes that's either not possible due to living in a remote location or other reason, or you simply don't want the hassle and expense of doing so.

I have a lot of fun on Crypto-games outside of just gambling, mainly because the chat there can be very interesting sometimes.
The mods are usually very very strict in chat, which causes there to be less spam than on other online casinos.
It's especially fun when you do win something, because you can share your results with other people.
Id say that the social aspect is similar to that of a real casino.
