Gambling means so much to several people, but for me I see gambling as an extra sport.
I flex my weekend and midweek leisure choosing games with my footballing knowledge and I feel so excited when they come through because it's my idea and also it won massively.

On my side, I just found it not worth things to do. If I wanted to look for entertainment, I will look for something like it doesn't involve losing some money because nowadays it's really hard to find some. especially if you live in our place, where you need to work hard to earn a buck. It really depends on who you are accompanying with, a man followed the footstep of his companion. so it really helps if you follow those who do good and forbid bad things.

-snip- there are people who treat gambling as their business because they know how to play the game, the tricks and techniques, but most it is for their entertainment.

That's true, most people seem to gamble because they need entertainment or having fun. It is what we can get from gambling mostly since to earn money regularly is almost impossible. Even we are a professional gambler, I bet not every day to win the gambling with big prizes. The tricks and techniques don't work on all gambling games, some luck-based games aren't influenced by them. The chance to win is always the same and no guarantee at all. Wink

Okay let's split this into two category, one is for the entertainment and the other for making profit. My question is what is more relevant when it comes to gambling? coz I've been seeing this two as both factors when you are gambling, a question that would answer the "Are you gambling for the fun, or gambling for the money?" but for me the truth is we all gamble for the money, coz who does not want money? let's stop pulling a phrase "at least I entertained myself".

Most of the time, people do really have that kind of mindset but there are people whom do really play just solely for entertainment.

Winning money is just a bonus out of that motive which is really a rare thing to see for a particular gambler because most of the time

we would really be heading up on making profits.Even I does have that kind of motive even up to now, the difference only is that i

do set out parameters or limit line so that i wouldnt make myself seeing on getting wrecked so bad in gambling field.

For me, gambling is just a form of game with bets, and that's it. Sometimes it is fun and sometimes it can make you upset or regret. Just like physically playing cards with friends sometimes it is enjoying and also it can cause some fights between friends. I am having a losing streak in a particular gambling site I am not having fun at the moment, I prefer not to involve too much myself on gambling now to minimize some loses maybe I am having bad luck.

Gambling is something you put money or bet in to a game, it might be small or big.
I enter to real casino once it is so addicting even I loss sometimes in my bets still I find it so entertaining which makes me feel happy despite the fact that i loss my money. Maybe the thing that we need to set up in to our mind is put bet what you can afford to lose.
But there are people who treat gambling as their business because they know how to play the game, the tricks and techniques, but most it is for their entertainment.

Gambling is the root of addiction because when you start playing and when you encounter a winning streak, it will drives you to play even more until the time that this game will be a part of your system and you couldn't imagine to live without gambling that's why I never tried to play gambling for the longest time. I tried to play gambling for just a short period of time before but I never tried again because I'm afraid to be addicted on games like that.

I play to make money, although not always winning but just like you said, there is an opportunity to win and you have to control your emotions in playing or you will lose it all. I was once addicted and it was very bad when I first worked, I lost all my assets because I sold it to gamble.
but now i can control myself, it hard and need a lot time to do that Grin

I think many people try gambling because they want to know what it feels if they play the game with money involved. Finally, they found that is exciting and makes them play more and more. When they play more and more, they will think that gambling is not for entertainment, but gambling is something that makes them curious about how to win the games. At that time, they will want to spend more money to win, but they still don't know if they can win or not.

Yes many people have many different opinions. I thought if the person who wrote this tread could conduct a survey or poll. With studies and foundations that have validation as in research. Determining the polling limits by classifying, I think this is a good idea. Polls in this forum or give a revolutionary to people stay around you.

It means entertainment to me. But pretty much a costly entertainment at times. Part of the entertainment which gambling gives out to me is the possibility of earning instead of just spending for the sake of entertainment. That makes gambling better than watching a movie sometimes. You've got fun and money. That kind of promise is pretty unique, and often frustrating.

You don't get my point but speaking much like know everything? Huh

Read again what I said above!!
I don't speak generally and never make all people have the same way. If you read carefully, you must know that what I said above is about Bezobraznike and my own intention in the future. I appreciate his decision to prefer thinking about having entertainment by playing gambling, not about the money. And want to follow his decision in the future. Indeed, even right now I don't gamble only for money but for entertainment as well. But once I grow old, I maybe try to forget for money purpose but purely for having fun.

Kawetsriyanto, I think Carlfebz2 just wrote in general, and he is right about it, it's not necessary to be old
to have experience. For each of us is different, some people learn faster, some need more time, some never
learn. I am in the middle, I had some bad period in my life, but maybe in my 20-ties, now I am close to 50-ties,
in mean time I get married, kids, house, I changed few dogs!
If anyone asked me I would prefer that I learned earlier about life, but nobody asks you about that, it's what
you do everyday and decisions you make, and all that catch you later. Do things in the way you will not regret it
in any case, do what you are sure it's right thing to do! Gambling is just a gambling, it's a game where people
win and lose like any other game. With kids you learn it's not important to win, it's important to make everyone
happy, even if that means your loss! In gambling it's different, but if you don't invest much you can't lose much
and everyone will be happy just for playing.

1. I wanna ask you guys are there any other definitions for you about what gambling is?
2. What are/is the accurate definition of gambling on you based on the definition above?

It's only two things for me, entertainment after a hard day's work you want something that will relieve you of the stress of the whole day and gambling is one of these that can do that, there's a lot of excitement because you are fighting your chances against luck.

Experts have a different definition from a gambler's perspective, and some of the gamblers will deny experts' definition because they thought they have control over what they are doing, until it's too late for them to realize.

I once gambled on the Fauchet website guessing the numbers were bigger or smaller. I agree with you some people gamble as work, as entertainment and some just try. In my opinion gambling is the act of deliberately wanting to double money or betting by guessing a game based on chance or just estimation. I think my definition is the same as what you wrote.

I am older person now, for me gambling is just entertainment.---I bet minimal and I don't expect to win much, it's the time when I rest my brain from the day. I play 30 minutes, 1 hour max, in the evening when kids are in the bed. Beer or two while I play and after that in bed!

You do a wise way in playing gambling. You know when to play seriously and when to play to have fun (entertainment) only. When I am an old one someday, I think I also do the same way as you. We don't always do everything for money, right? Entertainment sometimes can be more important. Especially in old age, to enjoy life with health and happiness is far more valuable than money.

Doesnt necessarily for you to be old for you to have fun because even on younger age we can still achieve such experience.Not all who are on younger generation would always target out on making profits, there are still fellas whom do seek for enjoyment or entertainment without minding much on how much money they do spent but i do also believe that majority would always aim for making money once they do touched up with gambling.

Age wont really that matter because even oldies do really still have that aim on making money rather than enjoying playing.It will depend on ones goal in mind on how they do deal with it and since people arent that similar then we would really able to see various aims towards it.

It depends on what kind of mindset you have. For me it's one-way ticket to become rich or broke bigtime. I really don't like spending my money on gambling. I'd rather spend it on something I like, like food I never tasted before. Even if it didn't tasted good I won't regret spending money on that.

None of those, gambling can be anywhere as long as you have the items needed for that game. Here on our place neighbors can gamble at the comfort of their home. They play cards, bingo, or mahjong.

I am older person now, for me gambling is just entertainment. I like betting on sports, usually I watch games
with my friends, each of us place some bet and we watch games, make comments and those are fun evenings.
From recently I started with some online crypto-games like dices, crash, I tried plinko and some other games.
I bet minimal and I don't expect to win much, it's the time when I rest my brain from the day. I play 30 minutes
1 hour max, in the evening when kids are in the bed. Beer or two while I play and after that in bed!
