When a gambler gets involved in gambling, he becomes addicted to gambling primarily because of his interest in money. I can never take it for granted that anyone who is into gambling is just for fun no matter what they say because a gambler is involved in gambling because of the interest and greed for money.
When a gambler bets on gambling, he is betting for profit. If the gambler loses on that bet, then basically a kind of anxiety is created in him. He becomes depressed because no matter how much he bets on gambling for pleasure, losing will inevitably create some kind of anxiety in him.
Gamblers don't gamble all the time because of the profit; there are times where they gamble just because they want to spend time on the casino and try out new features and have fun, and for the rest of them, it's not all the time that gamblers go to the casino all in the name of looking for greener pastures.
 
I know most people might be doing that with the mindset of getting something out of it, but not all gamblers are into gambling for entirely profit-making only.

Sure, all gamblers are not in for the profits. It's a self-determination, whether one wants it or not. Money or fun. Skills or health purposes. Gamblers are vastly running a game filled with unique settings, almost specifically made for a single gambler. Each gambler feels a unique drive. It's not a place where one doesn't know what he wants. We the players are fulfilling the wishes of the house. Gambling in their casino. Staying careful and focused to understand why we are gambling, helps players to find out their reasons for gambling. The choices differ, just like our nationalities, financial needs, and fantasies differ. But we share one significant reaction when our needs are not met: disappointment.

If a gambler doesn't have fun in gambling, he won't be happy, because that's what he wants and is not able to receive it. Players who focus on money, and don't win it, will also get sad. In terms of losing money, the reaction also differs according to the individual size of the money. A player who to him, lost a huge amount of money, will react strangely. Unlike a player who lost a few cents or units of dollars. If a player relies on money over his emotions, he'd suffer emotionally. Even if he gets the win, it could go back to settling his emotional stress.
You talk about gambling like people control their fate, which is a lie. Every bet and wheel spin is a rigged game where you're set up to lose but dressed like you have a choice

You can talk about "skills" or "fitness", but we both know gambling brings financial disaster. It's a life-threatening bet, and the house always wins

You claim it's about fun, money, or escape, but those are merely appeals. Part of the agreement is disappointment. Want to know why we gamble? Why do we keep falling for this well-planned scam? This system is designed to steal from us. Actually, the home is a predator, and we're blindfolded. Man, open your eyes

The reality is that no gambler gambles for fun. Gambling is fun when the results are in your favor. Suppose you make a bet with 100 dollars and you lose that bet because you will not be happy because of losing 100 dollars then you will be upset with yourself or your work. But I fail to convince many users that someone who gambles is not just playing for fun but has the main purpose behind it to win. Although profit is the main objective, profit cannot be made all the time, sometimes we have to accept loss along with profit. It is okay to accept the loss as long as it is normal but if the gambler continues to gamble and lose money periodically then it is not normal at all. So for those who say they are gambling just for fun, I invite them to play any game other than gambling. Hope you have more fun than gambling.

I doubt there is a single one of us here that enjoy losing bets or money right ? if you do , I think you have some problems or you're mega rich and you don't care about money but 99% of gamblers really don't enjoy when they lose money as most of them are gambling to become rich and they are afraid to admit it and that is the first sign of addiction. For me , when I have a losing streak , I stop betting and maybe after 2-3 weeks I will try another random bet to see if I'm still in the same situation or my inspiration and luck are back.  Wink

The thing is that gambling is a random event.

Every single game is independent of the previous ones. That means that you can wait a week, month or a minute, and the probability will be the same in the next game.

There was a time in the past where games were "easier", for example roulette tables didn't have the double zero, making it more probable to win compared to current ones.

Of course, no gambler can accept defeat even though they have set a budget limit for gambling and especially if you experience consecutive losses until your budget runs out from gambling, then your opinion is correct that 99.9% of gamblers do not accept defeat and their goal is to increase additional income from gambling even though they claim to gamble for fun.

I think if you really take part in gambling for fun then don't gamble too often because it has the potential to trigger the initial effects of addiction which will increase the budget for gambling, so gamble according to the minimum budget limit and if you lose then never use another budget and gamble on another day so that you don't experience big losses.

 But not all gamblers have that intention and their desire, it may be true that most of them want to win to get a lot of money but there are still people whose purpose
is just for entertainment and fun.

I feel the primary purpose and aim to which gambling was established was to become an avenue where people can have fun. Oftentimes we have been dragged into a situation or scenarios where all we do is to work and not have fun. And they say all work without play makes Jack a dull boy.

So, the need for people to gamble for fun became paramount and that led to the formation of gambling and the diversity in gambling. There are people who are only interested in casinos, some even decide to gamble locally for a past time and not work in the real estate. But today, at the same time, many people have lost their life assets into bitcoin because they felt the way it was promoted, that would obviously be what you would meet. But that was not the case.

In my opinion I think there is still fun. Only that it is usually fun at first just before the lose the bet or stake. If you should logically think about it, no one is happy losing and definitely no one finds fun losing. However it is quite unfortunate that at times gamblers experience some loss along the line. For some gamblers, their main reason for gambling is the fact that they find it fun especially when it comes to sports, most gamblers are happy when they place bet for their team to win. This doesn't mean that you should stake on a lost cause. The point is just that a great deal of the joy a gambler has is before the bet especially in a case where they lost the bet.

Gambling should never be taken as fun, when you gamble with your hard-earned money, you should definitely think about winning the most.
it is not the gamble that we should regard as enjoyable. but the games we play are supposed to be fun for us. If you are not ready to lose or lose your money in gambling, you should not gamble. Focusing on winning and pursuing as many wins as possible will only make you worse off if the situation is not as you expected.
If gambling is not something fun, it is unlikely that gamblers will keep coming even though they suffer more losses.

I also think the same, because no one likes to lose their money, and when that happens, be careful because it means that you have to take inappropriate financing measures to obtain a good economy, many times there are people who have savings and they put everything into it. in gambling, that is something that should not be done , it is something that does not make sense, so in the face of these things we must consider that every time we go to the casino, we must allocate a part of our money only for the casino, where it does not matter if that money is lost, if that money is lost you should not regret anything, normally the money I spend is the money equivalent to going to buy ice cream or going to the movies, something like that is what I spend, it is not much, because it is not responsible allocate the money there is to the market or to pay for services, because that would be totally irresponsible and nothing can be done about it.

Losing is never been fun and this is why it's really that important that you should really know on how to make yourself that able to easily move on on the time that you do able to experience it because If you are anticipating to much to get that win and on the time that you are experiencing the opposite then for sure that disappointment will really be at the rooftop and which it could possibly that ending some impulsive action.Gambling is for fun and this is why on the time that you would be losing up money then you should really know on how to make yourself to move on on which you would really be able to make yourself that able to control your emotions and control those impulsive feeling on which this causes up those more loses.

You should really be that getting used to it or simply accept on whatever situation that you would be able to encounter because in gambling on which winning or losing is the only two possible outcomes that you will be able to hit up.
Therefore accepting on whatever result will be able to experience.Dont chase up loses and don't make yourself impulsive.

For me, it's quite difficult to feel happy about losing money. However, there are also some cases where I feel happy losing money, which is when I gamble with my family and friends with small amounts of money, which has more entertainment elements than win or lose. And the second case where I feel worthy and happy about the money I lost is when I receive some valuable experience from my losing game. I see it as money to gain experience, as tuition Grin.
You have to adjust your gambling habits through the most rewarding settings for yourself. And I'm not talking about financial rewards, but emotional ones. As you said to have more fun while gambling small amounts of money while enjoying the company of your family and friends, adopt this as the ideal gambling session to have from now on. Avoid doing things during your gambling session which will make you regret later and feel sad.

It seems you already know what is benefical and what is detrimental to yourself. Now you just have to practice one and avoid the other. Thankfully, your experiences were uplifting for you on this matter, what means they allowed you to learn with your mistakes and even though some of them were negative, they brought you to the state of consciousness you are today: an individual who knows and understands himself better than before, who developed and is likely to keep developing his self-knowledge trait, as he values experience and is attentive to it.

In my opinion, of course, it is only by having a correct understanding of gambling that will lead them to the recommended mindset and perspective in terms of addressing gambling that will ultimately lead them to the best approach that will indeed keep them in a safe and secure zone or situation in the long run. This is the key, because by having the right understanding, there will be a sense of worry about losing money that makes you ultimately prefer to prioritize preventive measures rather than being too serious in pursuing victory which is full of uncertainty in gambling.

Putting the amount of budget in accordance with the ability based on many considerations is one of the approaches that you will prioritize when you want to gamble if for example you have a correct understanding of the basic concepts of gambling. Overall, it means that anyone, especially those who are too serious in terms of responding and responding to winning, must change their perspective on gambling again, because obviously this mindset will only harm themselves, and I understand that it is difficult but there is no other way if you want to be safe and avoid the adverse effects of gambling in the long run.

          -   There is really no fun if the desire or intention of a gambler is to accumulate money in a casino. But if the only desire is to have fun and play, it's for these gamblers;
they don't care if they lose gambling.

Then most of us gamblers also know that we usually lose gambling, and even if that happens, gamblers accept this situation in the casino that always loses in the end.

Gambling should never be taken as fun, when you gamble with your hard-earned money, you should definitely think about winning the most. When you gamble with your money and lose, you must feel a lot of pain inside your mind and you may be emotional. It is true that loss is not fun here, but money is lost and cannot be recovered. But when you bet with other people's money you will definitely find it fun but never with your own hard-earned money. Losing one's own money is never fun because it is his hard-earned money, but many times it is seen that big people enjoy losing. When a user bets he plays to win but when he loses he suffers, he considers it fun to convince people. But it is not right to take it as fun when someone else loses money, if it is fun to lose a lot of money then losing your own money should be fun, but we don't do that.

But not all gamblers have that intention and their desire, it may be true that most of them want to win to get a lot of money but there are still people whose purpose
is just for entertainment and fun.

~snip~
Gambling as a source of income never makes sense anyway, I mean we are talking about something that will statistically and mathematically make you lose money 100% guaranteed. Doesn't matter if you win big, if you keep gambling then you will lose. Source of income suggests you are thinking of it as a job, and that means we are talking about something that will be done for many years, even decades.

So, it doesn't matter if you put up 50 cents and win a million dollars, because if you want to keep going, eventually you will lose that million dollars too, you have to get out to make that money and getting out means that it is not source of income, it would be saying like lottery is a source of your income, it is not, it is just luck for once and that's one in a trillion chance.

Yeah, if anything it would be a one-off that makes you a millionaire. Very different to have a steady pay check every month like you have in a job.

So, I don't really know why people think of gambling as a job, or income making. It could be just a fantasy I guess.

But there are jobs related to gambling that do pay an income, like the influencers that show videos about it, etc. But that's not really gambling, that's more like advertisements.
That is a career, becoming an influencer, advertiser is a career anyone can take up, its absolutely different from gambling, becoming an influencer, or in other words, advertiser, is a career, what you choose to advertise doesn't matter, and the fact that you are advertising that thing does not mean that is what you are into or do for a living, for example, there are several of us on this forum who are not gamblers, but still, we advertise gambling casinos through our signature ad spaces, so it is with every influencer or advertisers too, though for those that advertising casinos, they usually sometimes do gamble, but we can't compare t their gambling to that of an ordinary person out there, influencers make money as influencers, so, even if they lose money to gambling, they are still good because gambling is not the main source of income for them.

Now, coming back to what makes some people turn or make gambling their source of income, alot of situations can lead to this, and one of those is lack of real life jobs, or lacking the educational qualifications to secure any good paying job, and also, when a person doesn't have money to start up a business, they can easily turn to gambling as a source of income, hoping they can win enough to atleast, start a business, but the unfortunate thing is that, most end up getting addicted before they win any good amount of money.
Some people dont get it. They think being an influencer, promoting products. Its not a real job. Thats the biggest, most wrongheaded thinking there is. This is business, a whole new kind of business, the best kind. You're building a brand, you're reaching audiences. That takes smarts, strategy; stuff most old-school businesses never figured out. Its about seeing the opportunity, seizing it, thats what makes a successful influencer.

Influencers gonna influence. They find the best deals, the biggest audiences, thats smart business. Doesnt mean they're throwing their lives away at the tables . That'd be dumb, and no successful person does dumb. Its like any product, you have to understand it. Problem is, some folks get desperate, think gambling's a way out. Thats heartbreaking, thats where we need real change. Not bashing influencers, but creating better jobs, better chances for everyone. Thats how you make a country great.

I think everyone will agree that losing money is a situation that no one, including gamblers, wants, but after all, doesn't gambling always involve the possibility of losing? of course, meaning if you don't want to lose anything then definitely don't ever get involved in gambling, this is the best solution. This means that if, for example, you want to continue to be involved in gambling, then clearly you must be able to be a responsible gambler in the sense of being able to accept any outcome at the end of gambling, especially losing, because after all, all gamblers will always have the same possibility of losing but perhaps with different amounts.

So actually this depends on each gambler's understanding, if for example they understand the basic concepts of gambling, especially the positive and negative aspects, then I think they should not experience significant disappointment or regret due to losing because from the start they were the ones who dedicated themselves to being involved, and as I said above, the point is that we have to be responsible gamblers if we still want to be involved, because the inability to accept the fact of defeat will of course make a gambler controlled by their own emotions which in the end makes them make impulsive decisions which will only lead them to more disaster.

And the second case where I feel worthy and happy about the money I lost is when I receive some valuable experience from my losing game. I see it as money to gain experience, as tuition Grin.

Besides, there are cases where a player loses a large amount of money due to gambling, and it greatly affects their family, forcing them to realize whether their gambling has been right or wrong. From there, they will be enlightened and take more correct actions, giving up your gambling addiction. This may be an unexpected joy, but once you have experienced it, you will truly be happy with those experiences, because without the loss, it will be impossible to awaken.
Feeling happy when we lose in a gambling game is quite difficult. But we should also be able to understand that this is a risk in gambling. We will not take risks by using more money when we understand it.

We will only use small and sufficient money to play gambling. That's because we know that if we use a lot of money, we can lose a lot of money. For this reason, we try to reduce the number of losses so that we can still enjoy the gambling game.

If we decide to gamble with a lot of money, we must understand that losing all the money will make us sad. We will also find it difficult to recover these losses, so we have to be really careful in using the money.
