 I don't gamble simply, I don't see fun in that. Profit with gambling is like we talking about treasure under the rainbow. I understand that gamblers live in hope they will win one day, and I understand they wish to justify their gambling with that, but all that is in vain. People shouldn't gamble at all, house is always win and that is something that everyone knows.

 Fun in gambling can be only when people win, on evey other case is waste of money. Buy something nice with money you planed to gamble away, that is better choice.

Do you gamble for fun or for profit?

90% fun, 10% profit.
From the point the % of fun goes under 40%, I think that gambling becomes a sickness or obsession.

I do it for profit mainly nowadays, and I can say that I am not obsessed nor addicted because I don't pay too much attention to it after I locked my pick (I mainly do sports betting ). It is wrong to generalize that all gamblers are addicts lol. There are some that falls under that category, and some also that don't. If I ask you why are you gambling and answer that you're not going for profit, it's total BS.

I do gamble. Not much, but I still spend some money on it.
However, it's under 5$ / month.
And on such amounts I will continue to say that I do it more for fun than for profit. Is it still BS?
Your gambling attitude I think it is fine, because as long as you can do what you want then I think it is fine for you to gamble cause you know how to control yourself and you have just the amount you uses that you can afford to lose.

Both, actually.
Betting is my way to make some profit. You need to have some knowledge on what you bet to be profitable.
Gambling on slots however, is more fun. Sometimes I lose, sometimes I win.

in my case, I nether bet for profit nor for fun.. I always try my best and is now getting good at it to gamble without emotions.

So, I don't gamble for fun nor for profit at all.. the only fun part would be during the cashout.

My main aim when gambling is to have fun, when (more like if) I make a profit it's just a bonus. I usually avoid Dice sites as well as anything like slots, I sometimes play blackjack but it's mostly sports betting and I usually gamble with faucet earnings.

Both, but more for profit. If the profit rise, fun will be rise too.  Grin

it's for fun, when i have a lot of BTC. then it's for profit when i have a little BTC  Grin

Yes, when we have a lot of money to play than it's more like to have fun. But I mostly play to make some amount for me. I don't think anybody can survive on online casinos when he don't have enough funds to keep him into game. How can anybody can afford to lose just for fun.

I use to gamble for fun but after a while it loses it's luster. Undecided
So I try and put a wager on smart bets. Those are usually profitable but the odds are quite low. But better to bet on a wise bet and taking little to no risk then betting on a 50/50 bet and taking high risk then losing big. That to me is no fun at all! Angry

Hahah, gambling is indeed very pleasing to us. But if we are wrong to use gambling indeed we will get a very deep sadness. Gambling is not a place for profit, but gambling for fun. Only a small fraction that can benefit in gambling

Okay, I have to admit it, when I was still gambling, I was there and answer an invite because I was looking for a way to earn bitcoin that time.. Other than profit, I have no other reasons why I am there, though I could say that I was having fun chatting with the people on the gambling site, so I think it's more of a profit than looking for fun...  Smiley

Yes i can say it 50-50.Means 50% for profit and 50% for fun as well and i do not agree with you that gambling is a sickness or obsession,because i do mostly sports betting gambling and there is both profit and fun and thats not a sickness if we bet with some good strategy there profit along with fun can be achieved.

unfortunately the fun thing still can lead people to an addiction and something bad in the end they can not control themself to get hurry to bet again after losing some money and broke.

i myself still not sure if gambling is a good thing to do or bad at all? even people play for fun only?
Not all the time gambling gives bad effect in a person, but I think most of the time most people playing gambling is a loser in the end, because I think that is really the majority result. But for those who own gambling sites and gambling places it is really good for them and they don't care if there are addicted gamblers because they give them huge profit.
So you think anybody who gamble for fun will lost and anybody who gamble for profit will lost too in the end?  So don't expect a good result if you gambling as the final result will remain same?

Is it what are you trying to say?  gambling are a bad thing at all if you think so.
Nah, not really, this is also depending of a person, if how they can handle themselves in gambling. But I was just saying here is "MOST OF THE TIME". I didn't say "ALL THE TIME", that is different. Me myself I am really not lucky in terms of gambling, I am always a loser in the end, yes I can also win but after that winning moment, I will also lose it all in the end. But it is also okay because I was just betting the amount that I can afford to lose. I don’t play with huge amount.

If money involves the only reason I gamble is to produce a profit from gambling that's my first priority. It's not really fun to gamble when your money is on the line in the end will be disappeared for a second just like a dust in the wind, what a pain in the ass. Burning money in gambling is fun though for others but for me it's a waste.
I agree it is no fun if you lose.  The main reason why I play gambling games is to double my pot money.  People who are saying that they play for fun are just covering up their intent of reaping some profit while playing.  As I stated, it is not fun to lose money in gambling games.  If you win and take profit you feel  happy and think that it is fun.  But if you lose would you think  it is fun?

Youre right even others says  gamble for fun but the truth is  the desire for profit is there even they said that thing. Each one of us have the same aim if we try to play gambling which  we could gain good profits out of it. Its really not fun to loose money, you  are truly a crazy man if your happy while seeing your money flies away. haha
dont know about you but for me gambling bitcoins just for profit might be really dumb, i think gambling can never give big profit in a longer run

how come is gambling for profit is dumb? do you think gambling for fun is not?  why would i be happy
to lose money and be happy with it, id rather play seriously and try to earn profit, by the way i have a
self discipline so playing seriously is my game play and not those playing for fun and pretend it is ok if they
lose.

I only play for fun and not for profit, knowing that I am really not lucky in those kind of games. However, in a month or two, I might start gambling for profit again

i love sport betting even it only for fun..
