Just for fun. If you start looking at it as a way to make money rather than fun then you might go broke.  Shocked
Stability is important with everything we do. That and balance.

I don't gamble what I afford to lose and I just gamble when I have free time. So when I have spare time, my reason to gamble is only for entertainment. Because I've been once a gambler and it made my life miserable and take note I'm still not that addicted with gambling. Just my emotion is putting me to do rage betting in the past, but now I learned.

Good for you that you learned early your lessons from gambling. And you already stopped being an addicted gambler before it ruins your life. Because of money involved in gambling makes every people get addicted to it and they treat it as a way to gain profit.
Unfortunately some gamblers are after learning lessons, coming back into gambling even they have stopped gambling earlier. At least after a hard lesson from gambling, we should not continue gambling for profit purpose. If we do not change the intention of gambling then we might need to face some continuous hard lessons and its consequences.

That is correct. If your reason to gamble is for profit then better stop at once because that is where the place of casinos - not yours. Casinos earn through house edge advantage in return for them giving players entertainment. Hence, you should only be gambling just for fun and entertainment.

That's why many are complaining and keep on blaming gambling when they are losing but the main reason is their greediness and negligence of the experience of others for not learning with it. And also a factor is they are not considering their own experience for losing a lot in gambling, just have fun and gamble your bitcoin, if you win then thanks but if you lose just enjoy.

I gamble for the fun because its nice to do it for the enjoyment and the fact is that you can never make profit with it so you should not do it for that.

I used to gamble for profit... then I realised I was not making a profit long term... so I quit, it is amazing the amount of money I've saved

It is a good decision you made to stop gambling if you can't control your feeling in gambling. Gambling is not to make a profit, but once in awhile, we can gamble just to have fun. If we want profit then we need to find some suitable investments to invest and get profits in the longer run.

That is the best way to earn some coins ,gambling wont help in multiplying your coins and i could just wipe out your entire bank roll if you plan on earning more,i do place dice and poker for some fun and i would not spend much as i do have some control over my gambling .
people need to realize early that gambling are not money maker just like what watsuji did , gamble for fun only as it is never be a good way to get profit in the long run, gambling just make your wallet drained.

the only thing that can make people have profit in the long run are those people who get lucky.

Smart move. Gambling doesn't give any profit when betting long term. The best thing to do is make some fast profit and quit next. Good gamblers teach this strategy to don't lose much money. Somedays, even playing fast and quiting, you can lose, but in the next day you can come, play again and make profit. Set a maximum number of hours or minutes to play daily and a maximum amount of money to lose.

The entertainment in gambling is the adrenaline high that you get when you make high bets, but since making high bets is only reserved for rich people, it is better to make small doses of adrenaline in smaller gambles and spread across time, so you still keep it fun as compared to playing in demo mode which is pretty stupid unless the game itself can be fun like poker.

That's right, for me there are four points what makes gambling entertained
Excitement of the game such as poker
Adrenaline rush while we're waiting for the bet results and also watch the game/match on sports betting is entertaining too.
Sense of satisfied when you're winning
The profits of course

i do gamble ones in a while if am certain that a team would win i would wage a bet and i do that for the sake of having some profit and nobody gambles to lose the money you have .Gambling is fun as long as you are winning.

No, you can't keep the fun when you are betting with the same amount of small dosage.  There is always this Law of diminishing return.  If you always do the things in the same pace and intensity, eventually our minds will develop a resistance to it making it less and less entertaining until such time you see it boring.  To keep up with the excitement and diminishing return, you have to overcome this law of diminishing return by making it more intense and exciting, that mean you will bet more than before.  That's the truth why people who gambled for a long time tend to bet a larger amount than the person who is just starting .

Anyone can make high bets, it depends on how much a person has. like if a rich person has say 100 btc, he would bet betting 1 or 5 btc a bet and it would be thrilling for him, if another person has 10 btc, he would be betting .1 or .5 btc to get his adrenaline pumping. that kind of fun in gambling is really expensive, better gamble with small amount and try to have some fun.

I really feel that less than 20% of the people play for fun. Yes they may start for fun buy towards the end it will be money that would matter and either win/loss it will get addicted to you and ends up visiting the casinos or betting etc frequently unless you have really good control of self.

I think it's fine because you are excited about how much you could win. That's why jackpots games are so successful.
