I got what I wanted. When I started playing poker at some point I dreamed of becoming a professional player, going to Las Vegas and winning the WSOP, but after a while I set a more realistic goal of earning extra money on a regular basis. And I achieved it. It was the first extra income I had that allowed me to save more and invest, and then think about and get other forms of extra income.

It's a question I asked myself this evening while playing a Slot game on a telegram casino.
I asked myself this question, and was puzzled for a while because I was actually confused of what exactly to answer myself, I wasn't sure if money was what I wanted from gambling, or whether I was just playing to have fun, or whether I was gambling for both money and fun.

And honestly, I am still confused, because I've thought of money being what I wanted, then "what is my actual target?, what amount will be enough?" is the next question I asked myself, and I realized I didn't actually have any amount in mind, and this made me conclude that money wasnt really what I wanted, but it's not fun either, cus I cant have fun if I am not winning, like I would always say, " there is no fun in losing money".

So, I thought I should throw this question to the gambling community here, maybe I could draw some ideas from your ideas and contributions.

1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve.
2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?

Or

Are you like me? Gambling with no sense of goal, direction?

Let's have a healthy discussion.



at first, out of curiousity that's why I tried doing gambling but knowing that it will gives you possible huge winnings, I admit that it was all because of money, not just an entertainment but the fact that we will gain funds while having an enjoyment is the main reason. The only steps that I know for me to achieve the things that I expected to have in doing gambling is having self control, being a responsible gambler and having a concrete plan and goals.

What I want in gambling is to win a lot of money and beat the house, that's it. There's no such thing as bigger fun to find in gambling than beating the house and getting that max win. Maybe it's fun for now but I feel like deep inside me, that's really what I wanted to happen, maybe I can also consider having fun but sometimes that's never enough but maybe that's just me, dreaming of beating the house when the saying is that the house always wins.

I completely agree with your honest goal of just getting a big win, but I think you know without me that you need to be careful with this desire. Yes, deep down we all want money, but why not? A complete change in your usual life - what could be better?
But the casino knows this very well and their goal is to make us believe that we in gambling have a real chance of this dream. And all you need to do is bring a deposit to the casino: the more the better. I am sure that you are a careful and careful player, but we all have to be on our guard at all times, this is the rule in the casino, which must not be forgotten.

It is directly obvious that whosoever that is into gambling it is not there for only entertainment but it is there to make majority of persons who is into gambling today when they lose in gambling they became bittered but when they win in gambling the Jubilate a lot so the Calling of the jubilation comes as result of winning in gambling why immediately they lose in gambling they are facial expression changes so that is to let you know so that nobody will deceive you that gambling is not meant for only entertainment but rather as an opportunity for we to you don't make money, so whenever I had information of such kind I don't like to welcome me because we all know that the gambling is risk and the every person purpose to gamble is the double it's richness or eliminate itself from poverty.
With those who say gambling is for fun, I can't think of the pleasure anywhere other than the wins that can be obtained, maybe they can accept the losses that inevitably occur in gambling or by enjoying the flow of the gambling that is done. and obviously all gamblers are of course happy when they win, therefore I think the goal of everyone who gambles is to win, it's just that the perception here is different, there are those who can't accept defeat, there are those who can accept defeat well. It is clear that if you lose in gambling, especially if the goal is to make money or win, of course the facial expression you will see will be annoyance.
It is true that gambling is a risky thing that can make someone miserable if they are carried away into gambling, with the aim of those who want to double their money, of course they are the ones who are very sure to have problems with gambling, in contrast to people who don't take gambling seriously where they might lose when they lose. will stop and leave instead of putting money back in and betting again to chase a win that is not certain to be obtained.

Initially when I joined the gambling world and when I was in the University, it was totally with a different mindset and obviously for the money and there wasn't a specific amount I have had in mind then even up until now, But In the past couple of years as I get more mature both in age and in mind, I would say the way I see gambling now really changed despite the fact I'm interested in getting the money but no longer with the only mindset of making a living, but also for fun in the sense that, wining or no winning I'm fine as I'm not depending on gambling to make a living, and still do not have any target as I'm only interested in playing whenever I see the opportunity to try my luck and plays with an affordable amount of money, and except whichever outcome.

Get more money, turn my pennies to the big sum of money. I have no reason to gamble other than it. The reason people were diving to gamble caused by they were willing to double their money in a short time. It's kinda weird if someone who has no motivation did gamble. The should always be a target. It's all about money.

2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?

Doing parlay? This is the possible thing to turn pennies to the big amounts of money. Never ever think about the money i lost since im also seeing it as entertaining purpose too.

This question is quite rhetorical but what we want from gambling depends on individual mindset because different individuals have their different needs from gambling. some people gambled for the sole interest to have fun and some people also gamble for the sole interest to make money and the category which you find yourself Answers your question about what we want from gambling. many of us don't even know what we want from gambling, they gamble probably because they have seen people win huge amount of money and that alone triggered their mind, and they started gambling not knowing the series of losses that surrounds the winning. lastly i did not know for others but what i actually want from gambling is fun, and to be entertained whenever that i am iddle and bored.

I also agree that gambling is not just about entertainment but also about making money.  When people win they celebrate and feel good but when they lose they become bitter and disappointed. This shows that gambling is not just form of entertainment but way for people to try to improve their financial circumstances. By the way it is important to remember that gambling is risky and can lead to financial problems too. It is good to approach gambling with clear understanding of risk. And one more thing is that only luck matters in gambling means if you are lucky so it will be an entertainment and enjoyment also you will get money but if you have a bad my luck so definitely it will destroy you.

1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve.
Most gamblers including myself, want to get rich first from gambling, and this is some people's choice even without ever having a previous thought about it before now. It is even the possibility of making profit from it that has drawn many people to it, and not fun alone because there are other fun activities that people could have been doing.

2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
I am trying to be more calculative, to gamble less often so that when I want to gamble, I can have enough money to stake on a few games with good odds. Betting of few games with better odds improves the chances of a gambler winning.

The thing is, we desire to see ourselves win in the game, like hitting the jackpot with a small wager amount, which is what we all desire, but we don't have a specific amount in mind; let it just be big enough to put a smile on our faces. 
 
Most times our desire is also accompanied by greed, which is what usually leads to what spoils the fun in the game for us. For example, if you are playing a crash landing game and see a 20-time multiplier already, instead of the person to end the game and cash out with that profit, greed and desire to win more will keep telling you to hold on until the hour breaks a new record, and you might end up losing it all.

I am back to just playing moderately unlike the past month so the goal is different now and all I want is to be entertained with the little amount I can gamble every week or once in two weeks.
I don't think you have no direction while you are gambling. There's still that will to win but you can do it in a calm mode maybe because you have lots of experience in it. I think what you really want is just to play the game. You say you don't know if you are having fun or not, I think that's because you are playing the stressful slots. I thought before that it's going to be fun playing slot games and then I realized it was more stressful than the original casino games. Grin

Getting instant wealth was what I wanted most when I decided to enter the world of gambling, considering that the multiplier in gambling can be many times the amount wagered.
Instant richness is what everyone would like to have from gambling, even though we know it's impossible for that to happen for real, since if it were possible, gambling platforms wouldn't exist at all, because they would have already be gone bankrupted since a long time ago... For newbies, the promise of making huge consistent profit may be the reason why they have come to gambling, although the reason to remain as a gambler after a while has to be another one, because at some point they will find themselves in a situation where losses are accumulated and profit just can't overcome all the gone money anymore.

Then they have the alternative of continue gambling for another reasons such as to have fun alone or side by side with friends, or to just quit this activity for their own good, especially if they don't have money they can afford to lose through betting. It's always up to each gambler to decide and discover why they feel attracted to gambling, and all we can hope is that they reach the right conclusion, which must be the one which won't infer negative consequences on their lives.

Maybe for some people who already have enough money and have financial freedom, of course they enter the world of gambling just to get pleasure. But for some people who are still in financial difficulties, they use gambling as a place to try their luck and seek luck. Even though the facts in gambling say otherwise, instead of getting big wins that can help them get out of poverty, gambling will only lose all the money they earn.

In the end, gambling is not the place to solve our financial problems, on the contrary, if not managed well, gambling will only further complicate our unlucky financial situation and add to existing problems.

When I play I bet a negligible amount, 'cause I don't expect to have an advantage, if I see that I'm winning, I increase the bet.

I play more for fun and I don't put the prize as an ultimate goal, because if I do that I know I'll get frustrated.

When I lose, I reduce the bet and try a different strategy.

I believe that when you really want to win, you tend to have even more bad luck in the game, so play for fun!

It is really true that some people do gamble just for fun and why others gamble to make money, yes, sometimes the more you gamble the more you realize what you really want from gambling because I noticed that so many people just want to be happy fun,
Some people will tell you they just want to have fun and nothing more, but from the way they gamble, you will know they are no longer gambling for fun, they really want money from gambling. But I will say most people you see gambling, claiming they just want to have fun, are not really having fun, they are trying to make money. Gambling is supposed to be for fun, actually some people do start gambling with the mindset of having fun, but in the long run, their mentality changes and they think they can make money from it. As a gambler, if you start doing some things, then you should know you are no longer gambling for fun.

I like gambling to test my sports prediction skills and see if i get lucky and win some money, of course i am obviously not trying to get rich through gambling, and that fact is clear from the amount of money i stake. Gambling on football matches sets me in the mood to enjoy most games of the season, and there is also a fun side of it, because losing is insignificant as the money lost is small, i also noticed that whenever i try to increase my stake, i become too careful and all the fun is lost.

Same with what other people expected to happen, I wanted to be rich in the same mindset from lucky winnings. That's really a simple answer I could provide for now, but with a very difficult possibilities. The steps? That I couldn't have an specific target since it is having a very little chance of becoming reality. Not all gamblers are lucky enough, it's just that risking over wth gambling has no exact or definite direction as well.

Everyone have their different perspective so I cannot determine but anyway it is a good one to know like I’ve seen a lot of reply that is reasonable to this topic
