Yes, that's right, although it is said that there are people who get rich from gambling, the number is very, very small, so don't expect much or we will lose more money in the casino. I once thought about chasing my lost money and depositing again and again by increasing the bets, but instead of getting my money back, I ended up losing more money. So it's better to forget the money we have spent on gambling


I very agree with your statement.

Not sure why he replied that way, like the topic opened up something from his past trauma about financial problem or a previous scam victim.  

Anyways, entertainment varies depending on each individual how they feel when gambling or playing in general. For me, It depends on how I feel during every gambling session and it's much entertaining when I have a goal whether I'm broke or not. But I mostly avoid gambling when I'm in a bad mood as I never felt any entertainment.

If your main aim is to get rich through gambling, then don’t be surprised that you will end up being poor. If you are desperate to make money through gambling, that’s when you will end up losing more money. Only a few people are able to get rich through gambling. If you want to be rich, make sure you invest in other things, because gambling is really the wrong place to expect life-changing money. If you are gambling and you are expecting life-changing money, then you might end up losing a lot without getting any life-changing money.

Because you are a gambler, that does not mean I will think you are rich. Gambling is not for rich people or poor people, gambling is general, and anybody can decide to gamble. But I can say most rich people just gamble for fun, the poor people are the ones who are trying to make a source of income from gambling, they are always aiming for big amounts when gambling, which means they will end up being addicted to gambling.

Movies, hiking and camping are purely activities of entertainment and fun and so therefore in my opinion there is a little disparity in using them as comparison to gambling even though gambling has a touch of fun in it too and the gambler who claimed to derive just fun and entertainment from gambling not minding if they lose or win is sincerely not saying the truth as it ought to be.

No matter how much a person focuses on only getting entertained through gambling there will be a cloak of a winning desire inside him. In the inner mind he won't be settled thinking about it that all the times he spent on a slot game he didn't even get a single win out of 20 time's. For those fun activities you @bitcoinpanther mentioned above there's no idea of winning in partaking in them but just fun) entertainment unlike gambling a winning mentality is involved whether you playing for fun or not.

Yes, I agree with you. It's just addiction or emotion that will make someone keep playing even when they are not winning. Some people, because they have experienced so much loss, want to keep playing with their emotions just to make sure that they win back all that they have lost, but it doesn't just turn out so easily like that; if the person is not just lucky, they can still lose every dollar they have.

I believe the the casinos who wanted to profit in gambling and other scam entities can be discussed on another thread.  This thread is about the people who gambles for fun and yet they end up losing making their supposed to be fun experience become stressful due to the lose of money.

It maybe highly likely that people who losses money in gambling become frustrated since their goal is to win more money but ended up losing their bankroll, there are people who play gambling games for curiosity and fun.  Those who look at gambling as entertainment often allocates funds to spend to the activity just like when someone is into movies, hiking, and camping.  These people won't mind losing money because they think of it as expenses for their entertainment.  They will get doing it until they have enough and the activity is not fun anymore then they stop and look for new kind of entertainment.

Due to the addictive effect of gambling, one must be careful and responsible in engaging with gambling activities.  Moderation is always effective way of minimizing the possibility of gambling addiction.

Yes, but there are really gamblers who really can't control, if you go to landbase casinos, you can see that people having huge money and yet they don't want to quit and chase for more. Sometimes I'm just thinking that if that is me, maybe I will quit or maybe I really don't have control of myself and continue to gamble.


Nah, there is no thrill in autobet, as least for me, it's better if you can click that mouse whether for a spin in a slot machine, or roll the dice, or pick the numbers if you are playing roulette, just saying. That's where the fun and entertainment when you see you money rolling.

For me I am not used to playing poker and don't perform online casinos so the issue of using those platform as a form of an entertainment is out of question for me, infact I don't like those form of gaming either for entertainment purpose or to make money, my sole choice or preference of gambling is soccer betting because I watched soccer matches for entertainment and to bet on games.



I am getting entertained whenever I watch my favorite club Arsenal plays and delightful to watch whenever they are playing and play soccer bets on other soccer matches to earn some extra income.


Everyone with their own choice some gamblers are after making money even not minding the entertainment and fun aspect of the game they are betting on, just to earn some money and move on.

Some people already feel like they are not having fun, because what they have in mind is making money, to all people that feels this way, If you feel like you aren't having fun I believe for the greater good, it's better to take a break from gambling and do something else.

Do you agree or disagree?

I believe that most people end up messing themselves up with gambling because to them everything is money, money, money, and this can stop your brain from becoming a responsible gambler, the sense of protecting yourself from gambling addiction can get lost if you are already not having fun with gambling anymore.

Why have we been so convinced that gambling addictions are triggered due to excessive pursuit for winning,  I may bet to disagree with that assumption because not all gamblers will let themselves slide so deep into addictions while trying to make some money off gambling,  this is not true at all,  because we still have some gamblers who are good at what they do and can properly avoid addictions while making maximum money chasing.

But not many can be smart enough to guide themselves through such a face and for that, we must allow them to have the benefits of not trying but for me,  I can properly combine both and still come out as strong as ever and without any trace or act of possible addictions.

We know that there are indeed people who do really lack that formal education on which on the time that they are seeing something then they would really be starting to reflect it out into themselves about it and would really be believing that they could really be able to make themselves that thinking that winning in gambling would really be just that too easy but its not. They would sooner or later realize on what it is and
what are the imposed risks that they could really be possibly be able to meet up and realize that it was never be meant on making money in the first place.

Gambling is for fun, but losing money is never been fun or something that give out some good feeling but if you do have that kind of sufficient experience and awareness on how gambling works
then you would really be finding yourself that having that good control towards it on which this is where most people do really fail on doing so. Fun stops? Depends on you because
each person does have their own impression and thinking towards gambling on which some would really be that going for fun totally and majority is really coming after on making money.

I have been gambling for several years now. I have gambled alone and I game gambled with friends too. My candid observation from the two is that it is always boring, when you I gamble alone it seems like a duty and obligation I have to meet. But when I gamble with friends, it is a time to bond, catch up. Basically this is just us getting entertained.


Because I have clearly been able to define my relationship with gambling, I do fall into thinking that this would solve my problem or the problem

Yes I agreed Anyone who does gambling right will have fun gambling and also win.

But there are still people who can control themselves and not mess themselves up because they know and can use gambling as entertainment. They feel no need to gamble excessively because gambling is not a means of making money. They just want to have fun playing gambling, so they only use enough money and can stop on time. And when their money is almost gone, they think the fun is almost over, so they need to stop gambling and not deposit any more money. If they keep doing it, they will probably experience even more losses, so they really need to be able to avoid it.

No, the primary purpose of gambling is to provide us entertainment. The profit that we can get is only a bonus but people treat it the other way around. Not all times life is hard and even if it occurs, money isn't always the solution for it but there can be other things too. Many of us are busy but there must still be that little time left where we can squeeze gambling in.

We can also play gambling automatically either by using a bot or by the in-game autobet feature but the ones that mostly use it are the people who only want to earn a profit out of it. When they win and they successfully multiply their money, that is their definition of being entertained.

Yes we do, especially the adrenaline rush when we take on a huge gambling risk. That is the fun and the entertainment that comes from it.

There should be more awareness about gambling create. More people will become gamblers and if it is not controlled we my have a pandemic on our hands to deal with. Awareness is best to sensitize the public especially the young ones who are the easiest to become gamblers.

To be honest, I don't mind losing in gambling all that much because I find it entertaining. I won't quit it but there are times when losing streaks can become quite annoying. During those moments, I may start to feel like I'm making mistakes but after I just recheck I realize it's just a run of bad luck, and the bets I placed were just normal and nothing too risky. I also enjoy making friendly bets with my friends during football games that we watch together, which adds to the fun.

The entertainment of the gamblers based on the mind set,if the gamblers keep winning of dollars.He never worry about the gambling involvement,because he continuously earning from the gambling.The loss only makes the gamblers to understand the real pain,only after the continuous loss.The gambler mindset need to keep in the constant way to approach the gambling,it should be constant both in the profit and the loss.The gambler should understand the important thing,the loss can be recovered in the gambling.The time will answer the gambler about the loss and profit in the game.

First of all, you must have the right mindset in gambling. You should know that it has huge risks and that you wouldn't win on it all the time. You must be ready for losses and failures as gambling isn't all about winning all the time. If you have the wrong mindset then you also have the wrong attitude towards it. Gambling is to be enjoyed and not to have ourselves pressured about expecting winnings all the time.
We should see it as an entertainment and as a source of fun and not a source of living. We should see the right purpose of gambling in our lives along with knowing our limitations.

But I cannot blame anyone thinking about getting rich or achieving their dreams through gambling, because an important part of the gambling industry since it became widespread is the advertisement of those gambler who hit the jackpot and the fact the casino/lottery pays to those who rightfully won.

What impact can have to see winners after winners during years on TV and on social media? It is the creation of expectation on people and even more dangerously on those newbies who are not aware of how gambling actually works, specially keeping in mind that most of people do not have formal education on the law of probabilities and have not sought to read about it by themselves.
