Topic: The real sentiment of gambling. (Read 903 times)

You are right, I want to also say that that is why we should play gambling with following the rules like invest as much as you can afford lose in the op already mention that the gambler take suicide attempts and also interrupt with the crimes for managing gambling fund. I think these things will only happen when gamblers take gambling as an addiction and use it as their source of income. And we need to stop thinking of gambling as a money-making machine before such unpleasant incidents happen.

Staying responsible and gamble so too is essential to having fun in the long run with gambling. It is the control that makes a gambler a player who can choose his own ways of entertaining himself.

It is true that gambling is fun because there is a lot of excitement in us for the result of win or loss.  And when we win in gambling we get a lot of joy but when we lose we often go into depression. But can't quit gambling right away. later we deposit again in gambling to recover the previous loss.  If we can recover the previous loss then the next target is to make some profit. So considering these things I can say that if we say that we are using gambling only for fun then it will be our emotion. And this emotion causes us a lot of damage.  So you have to bring your emotions under control first, only then it is possible to control yourself from all places.

The gambler who interested in multiple of the holding money will use the opportunity of gambling.But before start the game,the gamblers should understand the possibilities of gambling loss along with the profit.Many of the gambling losses doesn’t affect the experience gamblers,because they know the gambling losses are reverting one.So any day the gamblers can return their loss,but the emotional game after the loss will be the big loss of the gambler.Instead enjoy the game and try to make the money using your own strategies in the gambling site.

The real idea of gambling is to make money but why it is often classified as fun is because you can't use gambling as a business to make money or passive income like other business. Emagine having the thought that you want to win $1k in two days, and you stick unto constantly playing for 1 week or a month yet you couldn't win, it then means it just a fun. What make it a fun is when you are doing something and it's not coming when you want but comes when you least expect, if becomes fun.

You should never vouch for any gambler that they are gambling for fun, it's their true actions and reactions towards gambling that you would know the truth. Some would tell you they are gambling for fun but they are lying while some are truly gambling for fun but they might renege with time and start gambling for the money, we are all humans and are all susceptible to emotions.

In this present-day reality, there are three sets of gamblers, 1) we have those who gamble for fun, 2) those who gamble for the money and 3) those who swing between the two according to their mood, money at hand or the affinity to take risks at that time. This was why I said we should learn an individual's personality/behaviour towards it to ensure their position towards it. However, you will be mistaken if having the fun mindset is the only way out in gambling, many are not just for the fun but for the money and I respect their decisions. So, instead of preaching the fun, I believe that a neutral mind while gambling (even if you want money from it) is the right approach towards it.

You are mixing the points together, a real gambler will gamble for the money, that is the true reason why people gamble, it's not for fun, don't let us pretend. The modern-day pretence is changing the whole picture, but if gambling is about betting/risking something for it, if it's not solely for money-making, what is it for by virtue of its definition? it's of course for the money, except that some people may deviate for the fun.

In my opinion, not all gamblers are the same as you think, dude. Maybe you are referring to the gamblers who, even though they know they have won, have not stopped because their greed exists. then, in the end, they still lost.

These are the types of gamblers who in the end feel remorse or regret that they should have stopped when they should have won, but for others who are really just for fun, that is not always the case.

Well, yeah, I also think same, most people in the world are more quick and comfortable to discuss negative things over the positive ones, isn't this the reason why if you observe carefully, you will know that negative news spread way more faster than positive news, take for example, some one posted that he bought a new care for $9 million dollars, he may like get only a few likes and shares because no one really care and most are even jealous.
But when there is news that that same person crashed his new $9 million car just 3 days after buying it, and in the process, he also lost his life in the accident, you will see that who ever comes across that news won't hesitate to like and share.

Coming back to gambling, most gamblers won't discuss their winnings, but will be quick to post about their losses, and personally, I feel it's actually a good thing since it keeps the preying and jealous eyes away from you, not everyone is happy for your wins, but when it comes to loses, almost every one is happy to see you lose so you don't do better than them, and it's better to keep them in the dark about your winnings, and only make them believe that you are losing all the time.

What tends to catch people's fancy the most is how much loss you've generated over a specific period of time -- especially wagering a $100k at once on a single ticket.. Nobody says you should fold cause you lost today, you can possibly win some other time.
The last thing I'd do is use the reverse phycology method on a game of luck and chance.

Exactly!! You see, what tends to make a difference is when the gambler assumes he'd be making a living out of gambling. That way, whenever he's confronted by a huge loss, his emotions are definitely tied to it.

Emotionless is something that wont really be fun on just hearing it out, just like you have said that having no emotions on playing gambling? You cant really be able to feel up the thrill and excitement on which we know that this is the main reason on why we do play in the first place but of course sooner or later those kind of intents would really be changing up and this is where people would really be chasing up
on having those winnings and would really be able to forget on the limitations that they had set out earlier. This is why its really that important that you should really be sticking into your earlier limits that you ahd set out. Gambling is something that should really be just that for fun and on the moment that it would really be changing up then this is where things tends to mess up and this is something that we should
be avoiding it to happen in the first place.

Even if it's gambling for entertainment, I don't think it's correct to say that you shouldn't feel any emotions. People entertain themselves by watching movies/sports, playing video games, they also feel emotions and those emotions are part and parcel of having fun.

I can agree with you. Because one fact is that every gambler is gambling for money. He would never have gambled if there is no hope of making money. If those gamblers were asked to gamble with a demo account, they would never agree. Of course the  gambler is gambling for money, but there is a big difference in gambler. Some people dream of making money from gambling while others are happy with only small winnings from gambling. We can say that only those who are happy with small wins can think of gambling as fun. Real gamblers who understand gambling do not consider gambling as a source of income. A gambler can be justified by his gambling style. There are many who have lost everything by gambling beyond their limits.

If the player claims it—that means the person never planned to enjoy gambling—even when losing his money. A well prepared fun gambler will not find himself losing so much money and happiness, in a gambling session, without amending the cause to it... However, maintaining a good gambling habit requires consistency in self awareness. That is why some people get to forget about their gambling techniques after a while of not practicing it.

Well I'm short of words considering how some of you feel most persons are faking their experience here concerning their gamble lifestyle. However they don't need to prove anything to anyone because they owe no explanation but I know and believe that their are people who actually gamble for fun. I don't hot the casino with the mindset of hitting the jackpot but if I do, it'll be more fun. Well the best way in gambling for fun is when you reduce your stake, that will guarantee a longer gambling time, and gives you the opportunity to try out most of your favourite games in the casino. Gambling for fun is real and not a mere talk to cover up onse loses, we all experience losses more than our wins but when you total loss is nothing to be bothered about then you're still on the safe side.

From the rich people that I know, almost of all them care a lot about money, and usually spend on best performance/quality/price ratio. At least I havent noticed them spending silly. But from your post it sounds that they dont care about money. I dont believe that rich people who lose money in gambling did not feel disappointed or dont care about them.

Anyway, I will speak for myself only. I am not the kind of person who will refuse to take money, but I dont create a cult around them. Money come and go, they are only instruments for my future plans. As a gambler, I would not cry if I lose all my money, but I am not the kind of person who will risk with all of his money.

And, in the long run, the well-being of the gambler and his funds will be preserved, in my opinion. You are totally right, it's like a non-written set of rules for responsible gambling. Even if it's hard to follow.

However, if the gambler faces more gambling losses then he can definitely use strategy. A gambler will enter a win with a bet if he divides his money into several parts.  And if the gambler runs out of that gambling money in time and loses repeatedly and the balance is exhausted he will withdraw from the gambling immediately.  Using this strategy will allow the gambler to increase his money because at normal levels he will be able to come back and participate in the gambling game with the funds again.

Self-discipline is what makes a gambler a real player who can look after his own funds he is willingly spending for himself, either for fun or to gain more (I am rooting for the first part, for example ).
You can control yourself and limit your spending while having fun, even on bad days, you will have opportunities to come because you are in charge, not your temptations.

This could be very hard to believe but yet people kept twisting it and shying away from calling them doubling their money through gambling. I must say the truth people are gambling to double their money but that isn't their real focused because they wouldn't want that to affect them since they have to put pleasure or fun at the forefront and no one will understand that these people are gambling to double their money but using fun to cover up everything but is a pure fiction.

Not everybody, for example there are some play to earn games that have free versions, if I embark on the play to earn game I would make money on the long run but since I've played the testnet and like the game I went for the free version, still playing the game till now with no desire of making money, just spending my time and having some fun.

Now about gambling, I  am a big fan of slot games, apart from the fact that you can make money with it I like the game aspect, it is fun, like the old Sega games of the 90s, the sound tracks are also a plus for me, I have free slosts games on my phone as we speak, it is just something I like, that's all, and this doesn't stop me from risking few money at times too.

For me, fun came first before money, this is why I have spent most of my gambling a career on slots games than others.
