I think the pleasure that is gained when we do online gambling when we get a big victory and is not known by people around because there is no need to bother to bring some money but the money we get from gambling can go directly to a personal account, quietly we can have a lot of money that many people don't know. besides, the pleasure gained from online gambling, we can communicate with fellow gamblers in various parts of the world to share experiences with each other

If you only bet occasionally and only seek pleasure from betting, then you are not addicted to gambling. People who are addicted to gambling try to stop, but in the end they still bet more in hopes of getting more wins. Fun is in their own minds when winning bets or guessing something that really requires very hard thinking.
Fun might be a way to divert your attention from thinking you are in it for the money, but from what the OP stated, I really find it strange if anyone catches any fun in front of their PC alone, playing dice. Where is really the fun in that? There are so many ways to catch fun which you can do by playing games and watching movie or at least, going to a live casino, but for an online gambling, we really do not need to start deceiving ourselves.

Reading from OP last post that gambling online cannot defeat traditional gambling from entertainment side but i think this is personal which mean fun or not during gambling depend on people hobbies themself and online gambling and traditional gambling have their own fans so if you thought gambling online bored but not necessarily other people will think so
That fun aspect to me is over rated. Ask most people after losing from gambling, even with the fun, they get a little bit down. Now, it takes a lot of control to be able to wave such mindset and stick to the fact that you cannot get anything tangible from gambling unless you are lucky which is very rare.

Like Ultra elite said, it is all about controlling your urge, which means it, is not like the urge is not bound to come if you end up losing your guard. Greed is just certainly the main reason why a lot of people get themselves exposed to the negativity of gambling and nothing else.

Free bitcoins? I would suggest you to hold those coins for future. You never know when the price is going to go up up and away.

Nah, I don't think it will be worth it. The free Bitcoins I am talking about is the faucet I am receiving in their sites. Even if I want to withdraw that small amount, that will be still insufficient when it comes to transaction fee. We all know how small that Frer Bitcoin or faucet is that no one is taking the risk to hope to win in that way. Just having fun.

Actually some of my collegiate who are really fond from online gambling are really enjoying even if they lost some amounts when I have time to asked them one time why are you wasting your money from gambling or Is it just for fun? they said its really fun but the real reason is the moment they are playing they forgot a while some problems in their everyday lives its a stress reliever to them yes this online gambling can help some people to release the stress but not for fun.

Can't stop. If you only bet occasionally and only seek pleasure from betting, then you are not addicted to gambling.
Correct, if people are able to control their urges to gamble it will not lead to any harm. As long as the addiction is kept in control it can be a mode of recreation.

Gambling to make money will lead to more amount of reds than greens. Like they say if you cant handle your greed then you are going to lose it all. Because they hope for bigger and more number of wins they get addicted to it.

Nah, fun is just when they win big. Its simple. No win equals no fun.

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?

There are some time that we really experience bored in gambling OP because if you already know or you can really predict what can happen of course you will feel bored so that's why you ask where is the fun and if you already repeat the gambling again in again,Moreover you ask also that we really want to win for profit so for me that's the exciting and i don't really feel bored or negative about gambling because we can do it to relax our mind even risky then no one force you in that so just leave if you really don't like
This is just like you are going to cinema to watch some movie but you already know you have already seen that movie. Would there be some charm or enjoyment? I am sure it wouldn’t be like this. Then how can you even think of such big and foolish ideas that might it be changed when you are gambling. You might be seeing things in bad times when you go into it voluntarily.

I do not think the fun of gambling is that you repeat he same action again and again or you feel bored of that. Know the results also wont be much of a factor. For me, if you are winning in gambling then thats the real Fun and you will enjoy it. On the other hand, losing again and again can make you bored, heart broken and poor ofcourse  Wink
People mostly play gambling online alone while setting in their rooms. I think that their only reason to play gambling is to make money, they do not play it for making fun. they set along, give full attention to their gambling activity and try to make more and more money from there.

It is in the little things. It is the thrill of winning, it is the community you get to know, it is the all hours you pour into, it is all the memories you are left with even years after that single bet that you wagered. After years of gambling I know that you may lose your money, you may lose a lot of money in the end, however when you take a look back you actually spent that money on a quality of time wasting and not "trying to win".

I have been with this mind set for years now and I have been talking with chat (if there is chat on the gambling website) I have been gambling different games even the ones I don't enjoy. I just try to spend a quality time. Some people play fortnight, I play poker.

I'm with you, mate. I had stopped playing video games long time ago(8 years or more), and since then I watch sometimes videos about new games on youtube, like once in a year or two, and I can say that prom my perspective they haven't changed at all, meaning they are same boring games. Poker, on the other hand, is a game which I really like. "Where is the fun at?" - OP is asking, and I can only ask in reply, where is the fun at games you play? To each his own, you know, whatever floats your boat. )

maybe the fun is when we can talk with other people and we can play together in one table while we can talk about joke too. I feel that I playing with my friend in one game and we can play together, we can say that can make us laugh and feel happy no matter if we cannot win. we can drink if we stop for a while in the game and enjoy the time to continue to talk. at least, this is what I feel with my friends in the gambling game.

Well that is happen on real life casino, but at online gambling, you can't do that, you only can chat online with other people. It's fun but not much fun as on real life casino.
You are right, real life casinos has more fun but convenience is also important, some people like being and gambling at their home, it has more fun for them.

I am one of those people that gamble online since it is efficient and far more comfortable than real life gambling places or casinos. I am a bit awkward gambling in front of a lot of people so I usually stay at my house and gamble there online. Also, I guess that may be bad for my profession since my students my see me gambling and I don't want to be a bad model for them.

I think everyone has their own perspective and sense of how they can be happy, not everyone has the same feeling to be happy, including gambling, for some people gambling in the casino will be more fun because it is crowded, others like sports betting because of that regarding their hobbies, people's have different to be happy in gambling

If you had taken time to read what the OP has said, you will know he is really trying to focus his attention mostly on those who keep saying they catch fun playing online gambling. Sure, in a traditional casino, you can still find some other activities to do within the casino that can end up being fun, but how on earth can someone end up having fun in his own bedroom or single apartment, playing dice, if it is not basically to win. I feel the fun aspect is just over stated because at the end, it is all about the money for most gamblers.

I think you cannot feel how it is fun to playing gambling while we can also talk with other people in the chatbox Grin I am playing gambling at my room but I don't play gambling in every day and I still use my day for another thing and not just for playing gambling. maybe you can try this too as I did and I hope that you can feel what I feel.

besides that, maybe you can invite your friends to your home and you can play together with your friends and use the chat box to make conversation with the other people. I agree that in a traditional casino, you can always get fun by talking with other people but in online gambling, you can also get this experience. just try it and feel it, and you can know what I mean Grin

I do gamble online but I don't really have fun there. I think that is just a way of me to waste my time and I am using free BTCs so I can gamble all the time I want.
Free bitcoins? I would suggest you to hold those coins for future. You never know when the price is going to go up up and away.

Maybe is referring to faucet free money using for gambling. Anyway, that money he can't withdraw it so easily because most of the gambling houses have their own requirements to withdraw that free money.

There are two types of gambling, one is physical and one is online. There are also two types of gambler, the one who plays to win mostly the addicts and the one who came for fun. Its true that physical contact in casino are fun because of the interaction between people but the mere reason why people enjoy it is because of the adrenaline it gives to the gambler in every bet. Whether its online or not, it will sure be fun.

I think different people have a different preference for how they want to enjoy their gambling. I mainly prefer online because it is more convenient and easy to access when I'm free and want to play instantly. The other one we need a lot of pre-planning to go to casino and extra cost involved if a casino is not near to your place

Exactly! I have several times try to come to terms with what the OP has said and for the number of months that I at least gamble for a while, nothing was really fun about it, except for headaches, emotional heart pains, and some sleepless night of wishing you could recover what you have lost.

That sucks! Truth be told, if anyone wants to play an indoor game and have fun, there are better ways to do that, and if they really want to gamble and have fun, casino is the closest to that, but not in front of your PC.
Playing in front of your pc compared on playing on a physical casino would really be very different but still the results would be still the same if luck wont really be at your side.Both can give you out the stress and possible problems if gambling wrecked up you too much.Peoples preference would vary because not all people do have the capability to play at a casino anytime either they arent financially capable or theres no casino residing in their place.
When we do play gambling no matter which place online or physical the important thing is that do the things that wont really stressed you out afterwards.

I don't see the fun there. You are in the house, you don't have people you can taunt or talk to when you are having some winnings. I mean, even if you say that you are just gambling for fun, you still need to socialize inside the casino you are gambling in. That is no fun when you are not socializing.
Talk about physical casinos, accepted the socializing part. But talk about online casino, the only social part is the chatbox and forums and chatboxes are filled with beggars and trolls. Very few times do we get a proper conversation going there. Even when there is some idiots will come in to ruin the mood or just troll the people who are chatting. Its best to keep the chatbox closed.

in the online gambling, we can still talk with other people if the gambling site has a chatbox function so we can talk or discuss anything we want. I found that with talking with other people, this will make us not thinking about gambling games and I think we can enjoy our time in the gambling games. maybe, in the end, we think that it's better to make conversation with other people than playing gambling only.

Some love to use chatbox, some are annoyed by that. It's a matter of taste.
I used to stop chatbox on all the web sites that have it, from exchanges to gambling sites. Until the day I spent my coins started reading what others say and enjoy their presence.

All in all, while people go there for gambling, for the jackpot, for the adrenaline, I can't deny that the chatbox too can be somewhat entertaining. But again, it's not a rule, it may not fit everybody's taste.
