this combination is what we must have here because at least if we lose? we know how to accept as the fun is worth as payment .

though sometimes it is frustrating but with enjoyment ? i think we will have both reaction , if we win? then we can take all the happiness and the money .

Play  with good motive , not just to earn  .
And if they can't accept losing, they shouldn't approach gambling and look for other things that can give pleasure. This will help them not to suffer defeat which ends in losing some money, as many of us have. But if they can accept that defeat, they can return to gambling whenever they want and of course, they must really be able to avoid big losses. The motive for playing gambling should only be to have fun and not to earn money because getting money from gambling is not easy and only a few people can.
that's it , if you are not ready to accept the fact that gambling is only a place to enjoy and not to truly earn money then you should not gamble at all.
the place is for those who wanted to seek for total happiness and winning is just a bonus , this is what gambling is all about , once in a million chances to become rich but there is million ways to enjoy and be happy.

Gambling is now a way to earn money and most people are beginning to take betting as a means of income, those with good skills in odds calculation and accumulation are constantly winning and making profits from their activities
This is not true and I humbly urge you to stop spreading such misconceptions. No one should look at gambling as a reliable source of income even if some people make a lot of money from it. If they did it's because they were lucky nothing more. Being skilled may give you a small advantage but won't let you win all the time.
A minor or a new gambler may get mislead by your statement and lose his money by gambling more than he can afford to lose.

I agree, gambling should not be looked as a reliable source of income but the thing is some people looked at it that way.  We cannot deny the fact that people in desperation to have a source of income is now turning to gamble as means to earn money from winnings.  Some are successful but the majority lose money instead.  Aside from that gambling industries like casino and sportsbooks earn from hosting gambling.  So we cannot deny the fact that gambling is indeed one way to earn money from casinos and from bookmakers' point of view at least.

There are really some dumb people who do spread out wrong things which do give misconceptions specially into newbies which it is really that mind boggling on how they do really treat up some condition
or telling that gambling is one of the main source of income or rather this guy is talking up some shit which is something that we should ignore on.When it comes to motivation or things that do really
contribute into your interest on doing gambling and this is the main reason on why people is driven out to gambling or having that interest which is common sense.
It is really just they do really differ on how they do treat gambling whether its for fun and entertaining or making money which is really that a wrong thing.

Thank you mate and yes , I am allocating small amount to gamble at least just a peanut from my daily earning meaning it won't even hurt my if lose everything from my gambling budget.
The gambling is for fun and if we are lucky we can get profits out of our bet but we should always be in our limits and you are doing exactly the same like putting aside just normal amount which you can afford to loose while gambling.We should always have our budget and enjoy in our overlooking the big bets in gambling and reliving the stress while we gamble.
Everyone should have equal opportunity to win money but ski is also need and the level of risk we are able to take. Mosy gamers that do win big amount in gambling are those that do take bigger risks because the huge amount they put with the slightest luck could make them to make better profits compared to some other things.

Gambling is now a way to earn money and most people are beginning to take betting as a means of income, those with good skills in odds calculation and accumulation are constantly winning and making profits from their activities but then not every day is a lucky day, some days there may not make any profit in fact there may even incur loses.

Tell me any skilled gambler who is constantly able to win the bets or gambling games? I guess the answer will be no one, as gambling does not grantee you any income, it is just a game of luck. You cannot be dependent on gambling to earn you a living. Yeah, sometimes you can win jack pots and change your life with gambling but that does not happen with everyone.

Majority of the people will lose in gambling. The best way to go about it is to gamble with extra money and you should have some other reliable source of earning.
Agreed, no matter how many strategies you applied, you cannot succeed if your luck is not on your side. I have also never seen anyone who has made anything big with money from gambling. However, hitting the jackpot is a different matter. Gambling is just a good platform to spend some time with excitement. It will not give any income to anyone. Relying on it financially is nothing but complete folly. Gambling is for those who have a good means of making money or you we can say good earning source.

As far as i know gambling has been existing right from the creation of the man, no one can or may either eliminate gambling from the history of man. In fact Man himself is a gambler.

what you say is a real fact. Gambling has been around for a very long time. every person in life is very close to gambling. not only in the online world but now in the real world everyone is gambling a lot. we will never know how to get rid of it.
everyone has a different experience of how they can become a gambler. some came from friends, some were based on their curiosity about gambling. whoever has entered, it is quite difficult for us to get out of gambling. although some might work.

In my family they found gambling as sin so what i does is that whenever i found myself being bored i would go gamble for fun and most times trying out luck to see if i could fill back little bag that has been loose, so if it happens there is a good results then is a win win for me.
But i have came to understand that the more one gambles the more he get routed into the system and sometimes may hardly control the feelings of wanting to gamble all the times.
Believe me or not there is a strong forces that controls gamblers that always makes them feeling they on the winning side which would likely results in multiple lost.
It is not only family but in the whole family of Christ sees gambling as a very big win that anyone involved will not make heaven again. But that is a personal believe. Gambling is also a therapy which can cure anxiety and also financial bankruptcy. Like when you win a bet or throwing dice games, because of the win your mind will have peace. Gambling is not always bad but the time of losses are more than the times of wins. And that is why people don't like gambling because for them the money that will be used to gamble should be use to do a tangible things in the family not to throw away.
gambling is indeed seen as deviant or sinful by some religions or other family communities. but for me as long as I gamble fairly without harming other people and using money that I can afford to lose, it's not a problem for me.
because someone's drive to gamble is not just to want to win or as a main job to earn money for daily needs but some gamblers gamble just for fun to entertain themselves when stressed because of work or other things that weigh on the mind. so that gambling can be an alternative to brain therapy so that you forget about serious problems for a moment.
so a person's real urge to gamble is only in each person and if they feel guilty, don't do it. but if it's perceived as entertainment, use the money you can afford to lose.

it is given priority to entertainment over making money which is now everyone's mindset, they gamble because of making money or the worst part is that gambling the made because of a way of living.

Some folks in my area are not just gambling for fun but as a means of making money, so most of the time they end up losing all the money they had on them and even spending more from their savings. I think the winning attitude toward gambling makes most gamblers feel that despite the loss, they can still get it back from a big win. This makes me feel that if gambling were just for the fun and entertainment and not for the money won, most people would not gamble.
It is very common for gamblers to think about winning huge amounts of money which will encourage them to gamble as well even using their hard-earned money. Sometimes, they spend more money on gambling compared to the amount they give to their family. I understand their goals but the bad side is that this could lead them to addiction and could possibly lose control of their gambling expenses and ruin their life.
As I gamble, I was aiming to win as well and of course, disappointed if I lose. But I was expecting this since before so have no complain about it.

It is a thing of choice either to gamble with it or to bring to the family they also forgotten that if such money is being won, their family's would as well stand a better chance to get more money and get rich overnight?
Yes, there were numerous case which have been shared severally, most especially within my country, where a worker uses his boss money to gamble and win, and a boyfriend uses the girlfriend money to gamble and win. As far as i know gambling has been existing right from the creation of the man, no one can or may either eliminate gambling from the history of man. In fact Man himself is a gambler.

There are some persons that take gambling very serious and like a business so that are very converse and always on there feet to play the next game.
 Not everyone that is employed or working so some gamblers can choose to take gambling as a real job by making consistent bets in different sports and casino games.

Most time i gamble for fun. Sometimes i need to take a rest and get positive emotions and gambling is a good choice for such purposes. I don`t spend much money and that`s why i can`t say that i have big wins or loses. But 2 times i doubled my deposit and it was really nice feeling.
I can relate in this mate and yes  I have loved using gambling as my stress reliever , there are so much problem facing from work and business and when I gamble i maintain my positive vibes and so I attract luck as well.

but motivating me to be addicted is not on the list because I am more in enjoying than taking it seriously to win.
Oh, this is nice, it's so me. I was sceptical to end the reading while you insinuated that you use gambling to kill stress, I was thinking about addiction at first. But in the end, I realized that you are a fun seeker through gambling just like me, it's a very good way to relax and have fun especially when there are no good movies to watch.
it is good that you have read the complete post mate because this is how i conquer stress and make life fun than stressing.

Quote
What I would advise you about is that you should maintain this act with a little amount, it would surely help you to sustain the fun and depress the seriousness that could lead to addiction.
Thank you mate and yes , I am allocating small amount to gamble at least just a peanut from my daily earning meaning it won't even hurt my if lose everything from my gambling budget.

If you stay for most threads that asks about reason of gambling, it's not all about financial. You probably won't be surprised with most answers in here and it's all about having fun.

Yeah, that's what the answers will be.

But the reality speaks for the truth that when someone gambles, nothing beats the reason that it's about the financial, yeah the money non other than that.

The answer most of the time is for fun but behind that reality will come up that it's most because of the money, the intention of winning decent amount to enjoy, though part of it is for having fun and killing some time, we mostly see reasons which directly say that they are for fun or for entertainment and we can't change that fact.

We will continue to see those reasoning but as a gambler it will be more fun if you win with your gambling activities, it will also drive you to keep coming back, to aim winning either to recover your previous losses or to try winning again after experiencing good outcome.
Yeah, we can't remove that fact that you gamble for fun but it's more fun to have that money with you as you win. That's really a driving factor that everyone will not deny for sure.

If you stay for most threads that asks about reason of gambling, it's not all about financial. You probably won't be surprised with most answers in here and it's all about having fun.

Yeah, that's what the answers will be.

But the reality speaks for the truth that when someone gambles, nothing beats the reason that it's about the financial, yeah the money non other than that.

Well, yeah of course it is all about having the chance of winning big that attracts the majority of players in gambling. They can say they only play for fun, but deep down inside, there is the financial urge behind it as well.
Now, you can say that many people gamble to have fun and to try their luck but you can never depart the financial part as the main driver for people to gamble.
Yes, there's the main reason and deep inside that they want to win badly and get that money. No one doesn't want to lose and go away with nothing, we all do want to win and some money.

-   We know whether you are a gambler or not, when you enter a casino the only reason why you gamble is "Money" even if you say we are just having fun.

Because we know that as a gambler we still think about how we can get the jackpot in the game we choose on a gambling platform. This is the only reason why we gamble, there is no other deep reason in my opinion.
I beg to differ. It's not the money, at least not for me, but the possibility of making money. I believe this is what makes gambling a funny and exciting activity. It's like a challenge. You know casinos are designed to take your money not the other way around but you still want to take your chance and be the one who beats the house.
If you are into it only for the money then better try something else which can ensure a guaranteed profit.

People are passing their time from here based on gambling. People are becoming big people in no time based on this gambling. Again, many big people are getting destroyed due to this gambling. Gambling addiction is very serious. I don't always drive myself to take this gamble. Sometimes I bet on a game. I never bet on the casino side. When watching the game and considering which team is likely to win then place the bet. I have rarely lost bets. My advice is everyone here to control yourself a bit. No one will be fully addicted here. Just use it to pass the time and be entertained.

Gambling is something I started at a dark phase of my life, wnati and to earn much out of little but, you can be sure I learned the hard way and a lot has changed over time with my Gambling habit.

Now, I only gamble when I feel I can win, to test my predictability and as to how much I beleive in the game and at other times, just to kill boredom. I am more of a sportsbook kind of gambler, i know a bit about the games or leagues i pay my attention to and sportsbook isn't a 100% luck. It comes with a bit of predictability if you know the game but, it still depends on luck to play out.

I agree with you, you cannot make the mistake of thinking that you can constantly earn money with games of chance,
One who thinks or hopes to always win in gambling is one who is ready to make e huge loses. You get reckless gambling, on stakes, on odds and get loses.
