Escape. Escape from reality, an unhappy marriage, boredom, etc

Is this you? sorry about that. I've never thought that there are gamblers that are doing it because of their unhappy marriage. But now you have given an idea that everything is a possible reason why a person do something like gambling.

I think it is also quite good method for utilizing tokens or forked coins that have no real purpose.
We know that there was at least few coins forked of bitcoin, some of them were recognised on the market but some were not.
This way, most of us are in possession of useless coins, why not have some fun with them? Key reason is still fun tough.

Agreed on this since i am holding some of them and wanna dispose and i think this idea will be bettee for my plans.hope in time this will be possible

That could be one of many reasons for some people. They don't feel satisfied with their life because they cannot achieve something that they want. So they decide to search another way to release the stress but unfortunately, they pick a wrong way, and they choose to play gambling. They even know that playing gambling can make their lose the money, but they don't care, as long as they can play any games, they will do again and again. That is too sad to realize, but I think it's happened in around us.

Gambling is not a bad choice when choosing an activity that can loose your stress out . people on our place regulalrly play gambling especially card games , they say that they are not playing for the profit but they only play because gambling makes them happy . they somehow forgot their problems . we can also be like them . we just gotta learn how to control our selve's to not go overboard

At first enjoyment and socialization but when it differs it becomes money and greed,this is the way why people becomes addicted and you cant change this

Unless you can prevent from getting involved in gambling,or you can perfectly controlled yourself and emotion then you’re safe in gambling

To be honest with you, no one can perfectly control himself or emotions but the moment a gambler knew what he will face in terms of gambling while he set a break strategy, he definitely know how he can incorporate wise actions to get the full benefit out of the game. However, the key reason for gambling we always be for the sake of money, socialization and enjoyment.

Those commons facts is the reality inside this activity, having some fun with your friends or even inside your own convenience as offer by online gambling, the fact that you are able to control such emotions can keep you to enjoy this way, not unless greed takeover and make things differ from the first time you play, as time will past and possibilities to suffer stress and addictions will follow.

Most people think greed was the main reason why gambler usually proceed despite their lost is because they are high and it something like a buzz. Like I said earlier no one can totally control him self and we all somehow greed in some aspect and the best way to stop the greed or buzz is by setting a limit strategy.

Because usually gamblers thinking of huge money inside casino's and they'll think that they could win all the time but they are actually wrong. Gambling is not all about of winning but just to have enjoyment with. Many were fall into addiction cause they'll never control their self.

You might be right base on the rate of gambling addicted people confession and like you said they should see gambling as a way of enjoyment but we have seen a case where people that sees gambling as a means of enjoyment are also addicted to gambling. What I'm trying to point out is that winning was not the only reason behind gambling addiction and the best thing every gambler must do is setting some break/stop strategy in other not be addicted.

In my opinion, besides just for fun, most people play gambling, most of them just want to get money or profits in a short time and cannot be denied because in reality like that.
actually winning in gambling is only a factor of luck and if you continue to play you will definitely lose everything because you are obsessed with the desire to always win, and most importantly you have a good strategy and when you win you have to stop playing so Luck is on your side.

I was like TL:DR, You guys having this conversation drives me crazy, Tongue

, the only reason for gambling is money and nothing else. Fun and addiction, doesn't really suites the explanation...

May I know what's the meaning of TL:DR? I'm not familiar with it Grin

Anyway, I disagree that the only reason for gambling is money. In whatever side we look at it, such games are still a form of entertainment thus fun is always present. Yeah! Most of us (including me) gamble mainly because we want instant money but I do believe that there are real people existing which treat this as just a simple game where money is not a big deal as long as they're having a good time alone or with their companions. (I guess this kind of people are the ones who are very rich).

At first, I played without any control, I currently play with a mental strategy of allocating money just to play, where I leave it for lost, to play without any stress, the amount that I draw from my winnings, specifically half of my Earnings I try them to the game.

I realize this question was probably raised before, but I believe that the answers might be changing with time, because bitcointalk community grows and because the interests and needs of people can become different in years. I recall a video on addiction that explained that people mainly become addicted because of feeling sad and lonely. When I made a thread about whether gamblers think that gambling addiction has the same reason, the answers differed a lot. Now I am curious what kind of people are gambling here. Are they mainly looking for money, excitement, socialization? Please vote and leave a comment below in case you want to add something to your answer.

In my case, I do gamble because I am seeking and trying new activity which I have not done yet in my younger years and also to do entertain myself and socialize with other people because when you are playing, you have that opportunity to meet other people and somehow make friends with them. I do gamble not just because I am interested with money because I am just a small time better and I just play sometimes so it doesn't matter whether I win or loose because the important thing is that I enjoy playing. That is why I have get to engaged into an online casino so that I can still conveniently play even at home when I have no time to go to casino establishments to play so I can still play varieties of games plus enjoy their great bonus after doing my first deposit.

Well, I do also gambling just like you to try new activities which I have not yet done or even tried so it is my first and as we all know first times are really worth exciting and fun. I am playing gambling just to entertain myself while I am peacefully resting on the couch after a long tiring day of mine. I am up into seeking varieties of games that I can play online so I think it worth a try to check out that online casino you are up to.

Well, it seems like we have find gambling an interesting activity do be done added up for new ones that we have never tried before. Which is for the main reason just to have fun and entertain ourselves in a new way as possible. Sure you can check ut out if it seems you seeking for bonds of game varieties to play which I have experienced into the online casino I am currently into.

Could be that additiction is caused by both trying to make money from gambling and trying to have fun with gambling?

Yes both can lead to addiction.
Its like try to drink alcohol for fun and drinking it due to depression. One eventually gets addicted either way when they over get used to it.

So, majority of people gamble to make money while the remaining gamble for relaxation/entertainment. This is an interesting poll.

The major reason why I gamble is for me to earn and not for fun. A good gambler or a dedicated gambler will always gamble for profits and not for whatsoever.

Well if the only quest is the profit maximization, better be good at the skill. You need to know almost everything that can help you out at gambling.
Most of the people who are in the gambling are motivated by money and are in for the monetary benefits. They win and make money one way or the other. But it is a game of probability and you do not always know what will happen upon entering the game.

Sometimes it starts as fun and then probably when someone loses a big sum of money in it or gets in a crisis, then he tries to recover the money by doing more gambling, At the stage, the person starts doing it as a source of income.

There must be a lot of responses from various people, some are gambling to earn income and some are aiming for entertainment. There is a choice like this because everyone has different thoughts. But what I suggest is that everyone who wants to play gambling must be patient and control their mental state. Without this, a person can experience addiction which can adversely affect the future of a gambler.

To make it short... At first I play it as for fun after some time playing it to earn... but now I stopped since It's really risky for me since I can't fully control myself playing.

You did the right thing, and actually you proved that you can control yourself. That's what I do from time to time, I stop gambling for a while when I can see that I spend too much time on this activity. I rarely lose significant amounts of money, but I definitely lose significant amount of time on gambling in some occasions. It's when I notice that time spent on gambling is close to 50% of my free time, I stop for a week or two. Then I see how many interesting things I can do instead of gambling, and I enjoy doing them ... until I'm getting bored by those "interesting" things ... and the circle starts over again.
