Winning for some people is to gain profit and for sure they are more satisfied if they are able to achieve that. IMO, there is no specific decision of winning because every gambler have their own standards that defines winning. If you ask some gambler about this, money can be the reason why but its really depend on that person on how they treat gambling.

Definition of winning (Entry 1 of 2)
1 : the act of one that wins : VICTORY

From: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/winning

How would you know that you have really one? Is it just one game? Only one chance where you get the W or the L? Is that already the Victory that is defined or Defeat when you lose?

This came into my thoughts when I read somewhere here in BTCT that when are you going to stop? And a lot of people have suggested that they will stop when they have already won. It got me thinking, how would be a Win?

There could be a lot of factors on when someone is going to stop. It probably depends on what type of person you are but seeing everyone has their own opinions, you could share everything here.

We are in a fast paced world where people would want to have instant income basically instant gratification. Could that be a win already? What is the motivation knowing that you are continue to win and lose when you gamble. What is the TRUE meaning of ”Winning” in gambling for you? Is it successful profits or satisfied game even if you lose?

When I first started gambling I was thinking that I would be a winner when I will accumulate the amount of money that I was targeted to. This made me only playing and playing more, making me be far away from my target as the gap was getting bigger. From that time I realized that this is not gonna happen, I see gambling as a way of entertainment and this is how I win from it.

The definition of winning in gambling is winning at the same time, I don't care how big our previous lose is and let it go, because the next test we have to go through is to get the next day's winning. Yes, everyone has personal assumptions, but sometimes when I have a high bankroll, I will try to cover the previous lose in the next day, this is something that can not be explained in my opinion, because in gambling we definitely feel a little breathing relaxed when getting winning even though it did not cover our previous lose.

For me winning is not all about making profit, it can also depend on your contentment. I’m happy for a small profit that I get in gambling, I can consider that one as a true winning because I was able to control myself to focus on my limit and don’t play go beyond my target amount. If you able to control yourself, its a great success.

In my opinion, winning in gambling can be term as be happy and having fun while play either for win or for lose. I derive pleasure whenever i gamble with friends and also be applaud. Whenever i gamble i never look at my lose for any reason but my happiness in the gambling, i feel relief when i gamble unlike others.

Its the satisfaction that makes you feel its enough and you already won. Why does people keep on betting even though they already in negative? Because they are not contented and want more. Its the same when people are already winning and ending up lose again because of uncontentment. Its okay to go home happy and comtented even though you lose all your gambling capital.

~ What is the motivation knowing that you are continue to win and lose when you gamble. What is the TRUE meaning of ”Winning” in gambling for you? Is it successful profits or satisfied game even if you lose?

For me it's definitely the latter. If I was chasing profits with gambling I really don't know when would I stop.  How much would be enough for the day? $5? $10? What if I lost $15 the day before? Should I at least "make" that amount today? I try to never think this way, because gambling for me is not about money, but rather about the game. Of course I can feel a bit better when I win some money in the process, but that's just a bonus, while the main prize is the game itself.

My own definition of winning in gambling is; having the require profits after gambling with my initial capital within a time frame on the capital. There is nothing called successful profits in gambling as these games are games of chance were looses can also be recorded within the time frame.
