According to my opinion gambling is a kind of entertainment because when we see the people whenever they are tired and feel bored so the go to casino and there they feel relax and by gambling they can entertain themselves and make them busy.

However it is also a dangerous mode of entertaining yourself if you are psychologically stimulated by the gambling motifs and get addicted to it. If a person is tried they may want to rest and sleep - or at least I do that. I dont think losing money at the moment of being tired is worth it.

Then again there is no harm if you are doing responsible gambling and you can control your emotions properly. But that rarely happens.

Many people said the gambling is just a game and another people said it is Investment. How do you think?  Roll Eyes
For me it's a game, and others who said it's an investing, I don't think so because if this is an investing they save the money for nothing, because as far as I know, investing is saving to secure the future

Both of them has money involve but to compare the mission it just the same (they expect a profit)but the result is difference. I think more people are successfull in investing than gambling why? because even we always win in the end it turn to nothing while investing always positive result in the end.

For my own definition of gambling, it's a game where in a player has two destination, either he'll win and lose. It's a game for those people who know how to control their emotions, otherwise they'll lose the game.

Gambling is totally dependent on luck, if your luck doesn't support you then no skills or trick doesn't work anymore. So from my point of view, Bitcoin is nothing but a luck game, but actually it is entertaining game...
Yes gambling is totally depend on the lucky, there are no good ways to getting constant winnings in gambling,
it is just for entertainment so in my definition gambling is not good place to investing in it,
 except i make website of gambling games and it is not easy needs large of amount money and time to build it.
You are right, gambling is always a risky way to make a profit. You should be too lucky for doing that. Like you said it's not a good place to investing in it, because you can finish that with a big loss. So the main definition that gamble is always too risky.
If we love do it, then we should play just for fun no more.

Luck is the main factor that allows wins and losses in gambling to happen. Its a game of luck and if you are lucky you can win a lot or lose a lot. EV- games are dependent on nothing but luck - no strategy works there. But there are EV+ games where you can get a edge over the others and in PvP games as well. Gambling is risky - risk is always associated with anything in life but then one has to find ways to earn and live and gambling is the one where the risk is very high.

Gambling is a form of entertainment for me. I only gamble to entertain myself especially when i always bet on sports. The feeling when you are winning is good and when you lose that's the time you will feel the pain.
A game of chances/luck, a form of entertainment to get rid of boredom and spend a bit of money i can afford to lose. You know, you feel very good when you get to win, more good when you hit an impossible odds     Tongue

Gambling is an uncertained outcome with predefined fixed odds. In that sense many forms of sports bets isn't gambling if you know what you are doing but in reality the odds don't lie.

Uncertain outcome correct but the odds are against us in EV- games. In EV+ games your skills and knowledge can help you win many times, though luck is also important there as well. The fact with sports betting is that many games are rigged and thus it is not the players wrong decision all the times that they lose. Many teams are bribed by bookies and the share the loss obtained from their gamblers.

It depends upon the people's mind about gambling. You said it is just a game or investment. But for me, everyone has its own thoughts about this. Other people would gamble for its fun or they treat gambling as a fun activity. But some people treat gambling as serious money making. They do not know that they could involve a huge risk in it. Money that you are placing on an outcome that can produce or earn is defined as gambling.

This kind of entertainment it is expected that we can win or lose, at least it's necessary that we accept the fact that its risky.
I have fun despite losing because I know how to control myself and I understand that I have a little chance to win.
Agreed.
Gambling is a source of excitement, some people see it as a source of income and that's a very bad mistake as it is not a source of income in any way and they could find them self losing bunch of money.
As long as you realize the risks gambling won't risk you, as you won't lose money that you can't afford.
Gambling is a hobby, nothing more then that Smiley expensive hobby

- Yeah, gambling is definitely a form of entertainment and it is also a game of fate, we can not know when we win or when we lose, we can not rely on anything except luck and the risk comes from gambling is huge, our winning rate is also very low. Mistake when someone see gambling as a job, a game to make money, that only makes them lose more money and become addicted to gambling. We are very difficult to control ourselves while gambling, so the best is that we should limit and stay away from gambling before it's too late

Gambling is a game that you either win or lose.It is good when you profit always not a loser.Theres a gambling that i will become an early millionaire,I will wait for that because I believe that this is not a scam they never get cash out.

I'm afraid I don't quite understand you.
You think gambling is not a scam and people get paid out or?


Maybe he is believing that gambling is a scam or not literally gambling but there are some gambling sites that are trying to scam gamblers. But I rarely see this type of case. He's using the word literally "gambling" as there's a need to point out what specific meaning as activity, industry, or website/casino.
It's easy to stay away in sites where the main purpose is just to scam people, well this community alone is very active in detecting
those kind of bad actions and I believe if we will be active of sharing our observation as well we can help others not to be victims.

Gambling sites are not scammers specially the reputed ones. Otherwise they would be caught by the developers of other sites. The loss is a part of gambling and not a scam. If you dont have that guts to confront your losses then you must not gamble at all. The house edge is there is EV- games and that what makes you lose money in case of the games where you keep on betting.

It's also easy to know those gambling sites that are just going to scam people. And in that way you will have the idea on what are the legit ones. That's why I changed my mind setting when it comes to gambling, I'm not thinking anymore about scam as there are helpful and active people that are exposing scams.

For simplest explanation, gambling is a matter of fortune. No matter how long you gamble as long as you play the game, you don't have a difference with new gamblers in terms of winning the game.


However in EV+ games the skills and knowledge are important and they can give an edge to experienced players and doom newbies. In EV- games the luck is the only factor, no question of skills there. Gambling is just a mode of entertainment and not to be taken as mode of earning. There are many professional gamblers but they are handful and their lives are not easy, no everyone can try that.
the only game that i know could give you a positive EV are poker, i am not sure about another games like sportsbetting etc. in poker you play against other player and when you make a call/fold you need a lot of skills and experience indeed to maximize your chance.

as long as you did not play against the house you can always make it positive i guess, that is gambling.
