Both of them, to get more profit and fun. It's an easy way to make money through gambling.
Either you can sue it for fun or for profit, it is not easy to gamble for both purposes. Most of the people I know game just to make money, not to enjoy the game. Just use little mind and think what fun in losing money is. Who enjoys to go bankrupt, everyone is here just to make money, nothing else. They just give it name of fun when lose money just to console their inner about losing hard earned money.
they think they can make money while the actual purpose since first time are for having fun , that sounds like not true indeed. as you would only get addicted and looking for money only in the end , believe me. the addiction in gambling are so real. sooner or later it would come to you if you continue playing regularly.

The first reason i gamble to have fun, in my spare time.
And the second reason to make a profit even though i sometimes experience losses in gambling.
I'm sure everyone has the same thoughts as me.
Do not ever think that gambling as a livelihood because it can make us stress when experiencing a very big defeat.

Yep you are correct, living off of gambling is extremely stressful. Once it's going good and you are keeping up with whatever limits you have set it's amazing but then when you have 2months of losses.. it sucks. I've been there and would never recommend anyone to try it, it's hell on earth basically.
Honestly, not just stressful but draining both emotionally and physically. Grin
It is always so easy to say you will get out once you see you are getting in too deep, but the reverse always end up being the case. Gambling is crazy and for anyone who does not have self control, it is better not to get involve at all than starting and hoping the impulse will be easy to handle.

I am not happy with the word "fun" because it seems not serious and a waste of money, in gambling I choose to "profit" because it relates to assets and daily needs, so there is no fun element. This even includes in important work because it concerns about capital.
Sure there is, everyone is having great time when winning - so there you go, fun element.
Gambling is a very high-risk game. If the game is based on pure luck
It depends on the game you are playing and not all games are completely based on luck.
it should be dealt with just for fun and entertainment and not really for profit
Not really, gambling should be treated as it is - very risky game with chance to win money. Fun and entertainment are part of it, not the reason. Money is always the reason.
most of the time, you will just get disappointed due to the fact that there is a house edge advantage.
True, but also there are people who won jackpots, chance for jackpot is slim but i guess most players are hoping for that one lucky shot.
Others are hoping to beat the house even thought house has advantage - but it doesn't mean there are no players who haven't won against house.
Did I mentioned that we should only play with money that we can afford to lose?
And always be optimistic even thought it won't help you  Grin

Profit is always my reason to gamble. Fun only exists when you are already going home with a lot of cash from all of your winnings. Maybe for rich people it's fun because it's just a dust balance of their huge wealth that they gamble but not for me.
And if you end up going back home with nothing, what happens ?
Though, I understand it is easy for some of us to say we are gambling for fun, but trust me, no one wants to lose money as that pretty much sucks most especially when it is not a small amount of money.

But we cannot always get lucky every time, can we? So that is the con of the game and as long as we can see that, we just have to accept our fate as well when we lose.

I get that, and I agree. Just wondering.. Don't you ever feel the games in themselves are even the slightest of fun? If your answer is no, why do you do it? Only chasing the money and only going for the profits could do more harm than good, and that's not a road you want to take when you start gambling.. Just my 2 satoshis.
A bit of more realist and honest this person is, if you ask me. He is very right about the fact that even for a fun seeker gambler, losing money would be painful. Nobody likes to see his money going away without giving anything in return. He wants to earn money this way but he must take your advice seriously because gambling cannot make us rich. Would not it be much better to try out some working methods like trading or entrepreneurship?

I have to be honest, but I mean both. Profit is always a reason for gambling, but in that gag and I'm having a good time, I know a lot of people who have the same opinion.

My intention is only to make profits from gambling as it is the only way to make quick money which is not possible by any other method in real life and if I have to fun then I have many other activities to do so if I gamble then my only goal is to make huge profits from it.
It's true that we can easily make money in gambling but we can also easily lose money with it and that is the reason why there are a lot of gamblers lose money because what they only trying to consider is the fact they can have profit.

Not all type of games are based on luck, that would depend on the gamblers goal an decision whether to play in skilled based or luck based.
He needs to be aware of the risks in gambling and when he is aware it would be easy for him to manage to minimize it that would lead to increase of his chances of winning, it's not fun if you aim for money because you need to be serious with your strategy.

The question has been asked and answered for 10 thousand times at least I bet Roll Eyes
For me I used to chase the profit but I finally find that I am not smart/lucky enough to earn much money by trading token lol. But at least now I still have a bit profit until now.
Now I just trade it for fun. I have the chance to chat with a lot of people and that's a lot of fun.

Reason i gambling still for profit. However, i don't expect big profits. Importantly, balance can grow for me enough. Sometimes, 1 month just increase 50%.

Profit it should be  because the house is there to profit from your failed bets and so it makes every sense to also try to profit from your gambling because there's nothing fun than beating the house and making profits .

Sometimes fun and sometimes profits but whenever I gamble for profits I loose and whenever its for fun I win as whenever I gamble for fun its with very small amount so even if I win I never feel the profits and never excites me but still I am happy from the results that I am getting from gambling.

It totally depends on each individual. Of course, no one comes into gambling to loose their money as we all come with the hope that we might be able to get lucky and win some pretty good money but if it were that easy, then most of us would have become big boys by now. As much as we want to win, we should consider that the chances of loosing too is high and take gambling as fun than relying on it to give you profit. So, if you cannot, come to that conclusion in your heart, it is just best to stay away.

For the economically mediocre, logically it would be difficult to gamble to have fun, there is always worry that our money will be lost. And it would be great if we win, winning means getting profit, so it's only natural that we gamble for profit.

An increase of 50% a month is very good. Especially if your initial balance is a huge amount.

Is it consistent or just occasional?

I personally, my reason to gamble is just for fun
because to get a profit in gambling is very hard, we need a luck only. Good luck.
