Topic: Where is the fun when you lose your money? - page 7. (Read 3132 times)

I doubt that you are sure about what you're saying. Gambling can be what you want it to be if that's what you want. Have you thought about why gamers could spend so much money on buying new handles, gaming pads, spend on internet (star link) to mention a few? Most do these for fun but there are some gamers who play so that they can get paid. Its a matter choice, although it may be hard to believe based on the country you come from that someone who staked is money to win or lose just for fun. Yes people do it and it is not something that is unbelievable.

I don't think I'll consider it fun when I see other gamblers crying that they lost, when I'm gambling I want to win the house and not hurt my fellow gamblers. It's the house that we're fighting against to win as they're the ones that are making all the profits. I won't find it funny or fun seeing a fellow gambler lose his money, I'll be hurting inside due to my humanity. There's no fun in losing but there are some gamblers that have fun regardless of if they're losing or winning.

Some gamblers are still new to gambling that they don't have plans on how they should have a budget when gambling. It's due to their lack of planning that they can gamble over their limits and use money that is meant for something else to be gambling. When gamblers lack planning there are planning not to win as winning need planning regardless of if gambling is a game that get decided by luck.

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.

For me, the excitement of gambling lies not just in the possibility of winning but in the whole experience, the anticipation, crafting strategies, and sometimes even the social interactions it involves. I view it as a form of entertainment where, similar to going out for a movie or a concert, the money spent is for the joy and the thrill of the moment. That said, it's super important to gamble within one's limits to ensure it doesn't interfere with daily life or finances.
It's all about finding that personal balance where the fun is in the experience, regardless of the outcome.

Gambling shouldn't really matter whether you're losing much or less or whether you're winning at all, except maybe your sole aim for gambling is to make profit which is a very wrong way to approach gambling. It's a fun activity that should be done for the sake of fun because that's the o lybway you can ensure that you're gambling safe. If you're gambling for profit, you'll find yourself taking more risks than usual.

Op what you will understand is that most people Dont gamble because of money they will win or lose , they gamble for fun sake because the game makes them happy And nothing much .

I have actually seen a gambler in different scenarios that will gamble  with huge amount of money But At the end he will give out the money To others after winning , he just gambles to have fun .

Looking At your question’where is the fun when you lose money’ . My dear no human being enjoys loss And no one has Ever be happy that he is losing out Resources, But when It comes To gambling most people Dont consider the losses , some are even willing To lose more just To be happy . Every gambler has what motivates him or her And It  is either the winning aspect or the losing aspect .

Yes, it can actually be fun to you when you are not losing much and you are losing lower than your budget. It’s make you understanding gambling games very well and also keep you equipped for more gambling ahead because you are not over gambling and you are not taking much risk on gambling you are always taking precaution, so it will be fun when you see other people crying because they have lost a lot in gambling just because of lack of planning and over gambling

What do you think of the players who play each day and accept that it's therapy to them? To some, it could be a wrong one, but some players use daily gambling as a means of healing themselves and entertainment. I think some naive players think that gamblers who play for entertainment are like those who seek money. However, the personal intentions of each player are different for every player, but what is most important is the aim and goal of the players. But the worst aspect of the game is not holding up to do the right thing. Most gamblers out of love for money, do the wrong things and boycott the rules of gambling responsibly, despite being warned by the casino. Gamblers who wager money each day and neglect another important aspect of their lives that needs finances are not doing the right things. They are only making up a hard time for themselves. Because once the funds get exhausted, they can't withstand the pressure of gambling irresponsibly. By chasing out other means of illicit methods of earning to fund their gambling lifestyles. I prefer gambling in a casual form to going the extra mile just for gambling.

You are right, I think every gambler has fun in his own way and creates his own habits to do so, certainly the casino, gambling, sports betting are always something that fills us, it amuses us and gives us adrenaline, it is something that cannot be denied, however every time we play, what I think we should take care of is the money, without money there is no fun, there is nothing, And sometimes in a casino we can lose control, we give in to our emotions and we can lose our money and that is precisely what we should not do, what we cannot afford, we must always come out winning, it is allowed to lose, but not everything, in a casino we cannot come out victorious all the time, because the casino advantage is something unpredictable, but we must control at least the money we have.

Every human being on earth have their own way of handling things and that's why some gamblers do go crazy with their gambling habits  and others just go with the flow of their gambling session. Their are some gamblers that depends on winning before they can actually term their habits as fun although losing in gambling is never fun but atleast you already have the mindset ready that gambling is both loses and profits with a touch of adrenaline flow attached.

To some gamblers, loosing the money is also part of the fun to them, because they realized that gambling is not only for a winning for winning event, we paly to try our luck for winning or loosing, then we have the fun at the end as one of the most expected benefit we should always seek after with gambling, this makes it that not all gamblers are that eager or too desperate in making a win by all means, some are only after catching the fun and being satisfied like  that, everyone of us cannot have the same approach to how we are gambling, but at least, one of our expectations must be meant for each purpose of gambling. 

However, in sports it still depends on luck because every gamble definitely hopes to win, so if we gamble in sports we definitely hope to win for the team we support, the same thing with online or offline gambling, everyone hopes to win and the gambler's win is not because he was great at gambling but it was a stroke of luck for him.

Yes, it is true that those who gamble on sports definitely choose their favorite team or a team that they think is very good at competing, but every good team doesn't always win, there are bound to be losses, so if we choose a team that we think is good and has great abilities, then the team loses to a team that we think is bad/not good, we definitely think it's just luck. Therefore, gambling still depends on luck. therefore luck plays a role.

Gamblers' wins and losses have no long-term effect. Because a gambler never stops at a win or a loss. But there are some gamblers who gamble with the money they cannot afford to lose. Gambling becomes no fun for a gambler when he bets such money and loses. It is normal to be depressed when a gambler loses his money. Gambling is considered fun by those who accept loss and win. And gambling does not bring joy to those who strive only to win. A gambler must be prepared to accept both profits and losses. If there is no high expectation from gambling then losing in gambling will have no regrets.

I don't know what fun is when you lose money as there is no fun for me.The fun when playing with friends and socializing is a good one but tell me one person who get to play a huge amount of money when he is gambling with friends unless he is completely drunk or he is rich,for these type of persons for rich persons they don't care how much money they lose as long as they are enjoying what they are doing,the drunk persons only realizes tomorrow when he wakes up what he has done and for the normal persons,most of the normal persons there is absolutely no freaking fun when you lose money,just read the chats in casinos,people leaving parents money,or money that they need for major other things.

The beauty of gambling especially casino games, you win and lose more often which keeps the bettor to keep betting and they will adjust their betting amount based on their results which decides whether they could leave with a bankroll or going to bust their balance. Nobody feels fun when they lose but on the other side, the hope of winning the next bet keeps us engaged.

Although you may not like it, the mathematical probability of you winning is low, with failure being a possible outcome. However, for everyone, gambling cannot simply be a dichotomy between winning and losing. For some people, the pleasure derived from gaming is valued more than any potential outcome. The adrenaline rush, the thrill of competition and the social aspect of playing with friends can make up part of its appeal.

For some gamblers, winning is a reward but for gamblers like these, it is their experience. Approaching gambling from an entertainment perspective is something they do, knowing that it can lead to losing money but accepting it as a price to pay for fun. What gambling is depends on each person. No one can say whether someone gambles for the right or wrong reason because everyone has their own motivation and satisfaction from it.

Let's put this debate to bed, time is money and if you are going to gamble without anything to show for in terms of a profit then it's simply a waste of time. And why would anybody in their right mind call losing money fun, comeon let's be honest with ourselves.


No fun in this indeed, unless you are playing with someone else's money that you have no attachment in...

True, gambling is a combination of skill and luck especially when you are involved in the type of sports betting that does require skill and knowledge to at least help bring you closer to winning, but still in the end you will lose if luck does not come at the right time, meaning that no matter how skilled you are and have a lot of knowledge it will not work to bring victory if luck does not come at the same time. But this makes sense and confirms the reason that gambling is always about uncertainty in terms of winning.

Every gambler has their own perspective and goals in gambling, some come for entertainment and some come with the full intention of winning, all of that is up to you because you have the right to make whatever decision you want but on condition and note that you must really understand thoroughly what gambling is actually about, because in some cases usually someone who comes with the aim of making them do not have the ability to accept the fact of losing which makes them instead dominated by emotions which ultimately makes them experience a greater number of losses. On the other hand I understand that everyone does not like losing, but this is gambling which will always involve the possibility of losing, simply put if for example you don't want to lose anything then obviously it's better not to gamble, but if for example you still want to stay involved then obviously you must have the ability to accept whatever the risks are.

Sometimes gamblers' thoughts also make sense. but some gamblers are aware that they are betting and have the hope of winning. Even though the results depend on luck, gamblers still bet happily.
if there are gamblers who still think gambling doesn't provide fun for them. I'm sure the gambler is under pressure from losing a game that is increasingly making him frustrated. However, the impact of gambling varies for each gambler. and their responses are also sometimes unique.

Gambling is both combination of luck and your skills, but decisively we win by chance. Your bets are placed based on your already gotten knowledge as you have already said, of which you stake on those predictions within your risk tolerance level and accept any outcome of your bets.

My take on this OP,  is gambling isn't fun as well as either you lose or win. We all just take part in a probability game that is uncertain, we accepting this fact shades us from Ill feelings of which we keep betting nothing more or less.
Of course judging from normal Human perspective it won't be fun if don't all lie to ourselves, we all know and accept lose as part of game so it becomes fun when we lose then if am to put it this way. In essence gamble responsibly with your set rules so as not to reach a stage you become  emotionally unhealthy and then the fun dies off the game.
