Aside from what was mentioned above, I find gambling challenging. when I play, I challenge my self to reach a certain profits at a certain point of time like in 1 hour, I should earn at least xxx amount already from xxx capital. However, if I am with someone I, I just enjoy the game, chat and entertain our selves, just have fun.

I think, buying Crypto is like gambling ?
Not necessarily. Buying crypto is called investing. Gambling and investing differes in many ways. First way: gambling requires pure luck while investment requires knowledge and patience. Second way: gambling is risker than investing. Third way: you can double your money in gambling and lose it too within a minute while in investing, you have to wait for weeks/ days/ or months.

I am actually relieved when I saw the results that majority of the players that gamble find it enjoyable and fun at the same time. Unfortunately, when you hope to win in gambling, it creates this illusion that superficially, you may admit that you are not addicted but you do enjoy the thought of winning, which would then cascade into addiction soon thereafter.

I think, buying Crypto is like gambling ?
Not not really because you intention to buy is to invest not to gamble.

There's a big difference on the gambler's side as they are buying crypto using it as a tool to gamble while investors are hoping for the increase of value so they can sell at a profit, though bought you gamble with the risk, but they are completely different.


When you purchase cryptocurrency, there are risks involve. Unlike in gambling, everything revolves around the odds of winning and there is no other way that you can at least limit the chances of losing. Investing is a whole risk but there are a plethora of ways in order to minimize your losses and maximize your winnings at the same time.

I think, buying Crypto is like gambling ? If yes : because I want to be part of the system and I'm already giving my time so why not money too ?
But at the beginning it was just to understand more memes (yes it's a stupid start I know) and have a lot of fun !

How about it's also a means to support the team that you like. For example, in the sports of basketball or any other sports that you are an avid fan of.

You bet for the team you like and you support them through it despite of the odds, there are gamblers like this and I sometimes do this although I understand that chance of losing is higher if some circumstances are applied.
If you already know your bet has a big chance to lose why you still want to bet on your favorite team. In my opinion even if your favorite team loses at least you still get money from the opposing team and that can replace your disappointment because your team loses.
There are gamblers like this, there's a chance to lose but you're unsure if it's going to lose. This is what we they call the clutch of the game, when an underdog team is being thought of losing the match.

But you just let it pass and as a supporter, you have bet for them and it doesn't matter to you whether the chance is very slim. And as an unexpected event comes, they've won the game just like that. This happens in real life and sometimes I do this in e-sports which usually happens and games are hard to predict.

That’s really good if you are having such a satisfactory attitude about gambling. If you love gambling it will give you more income because you will use it for fun but using for greed can harm your income. We should gamble for making money online or offline but needed to be patient about it, as I use gambling to get money but it helps me to get fresh in free time as well.
Lol, loving in gambling did not give any assurance that you will earn money. And what kind of patient you are trying to say? Are you investing that you patiently wait when it will go to earn? Gambling is not easy as that and for sure this is not an easy to chase money because probably it will lost all your assets if you dont know how the gambling work and what is the whole concept on it. Just gamble for totally have fun, if you will win, much better.

1.Enjoying- How much money does it go to weekly?

4.Fun- You play Ofline or online casino?
i play offline before but now i mainly play online  because my job now was also online  . i can recieve   my salary online so i use that salary directly to play gambling  . i rarely go outside now  .

are you able to grow your gambling money and multiply it as an investment?
or not?

or you simply don't care?

just curious here, genuine question
I liked the question you ask here because these are what some gamblers have in mind and later lead to their gambling addiction cause they don't understand the concept.
Gambling is a game of chance (i.e possibility, probability,fate etc) and the chance level is usually 1%, automatically it shouldn't be seen as an investment but a trial which is the reason why people are advised to gamble with the amount they can afford to lose.

Personally, I see gambling as a fun enterprise and don't really take it serious. That's why when I gamble most times, I don't place my hopes high. I just take whatever outcome it comes. It's basically like the two sides of a coin, You either win or lose. Why do I take gambling that way? It's quite simple. Even times where I go for small odds - high chanced options, I still end up losing.  (not all the time though). An experience like that is enough anyone to stop taking gambling too seriously.

Pretty sure enjoying and fun are the same in this case?

I also find it interesting that 0% of people admitted that they are addicted to gambling—this just seems quite unlikely. I've seen plenty of people here who are clearly addicted.

Personally, I play for fun, but also chasing the big wins. I almost exclusively play low stakes tables for fun, whereas high stakes are for the money (poker).
haha so are you admitted that you are addicted to gambling now by saying that?

to gamble for fun is the beginning , to gamble forever and can not stop from it even though you are aware that it has been considered destructive to your life is the end of the story. i find interesting too that a lot of people suffering rather than enjoying, numbers never lies isn't it?
people feel okay to chasing for big win for once or twice , but when you do it repeatedly and then get nothing , what do you think will happen next?

a frustration and feeling addicted, that is the fact about gambling. the real one.

either Hope for a win and Enjoyment !!!

enjoyment is the most answered but the truth is more are hypocrite because they are aiming for a win while having fun right?

that is why i answered those two,is the best two choices for the gambling habit.

If people or you play for fun and Entertainment and consider any win as a bonus would be the best way to look at it . This is the best thing to happen as you would not be addicted to it and also would enjoy the game and the time you spend on it .

My reasons for gambling are actually four options in the survey. Due to the limit of the survey, two of them, '' Hope for a win '' and '' fun '' option was marked. The other two options that I cannot check are Enjoy Enjoying ve and I I love seçenek. Now, let me answer the questions asked about all of them.
Enjoying: I don't usually spend weekly, but I spend around 100 USD for entertainment for 90 days.

I Love: I like to gamble from time to time, although it is not nice and ethical.

Hope for a Win: I don't have daily winnings because I don't gamble every day, but I usually earn 15-20% of my main money when I play.

Fun: I sometimes gamble with very small amounts for entertainment purposes.

I gambled since I was young, not sure when and I was addicted, in my family some of them knew gambling and spent their money every day on it, maybe this was embedded in me and eventually I became what I am today.

First, it's definitely just for fun and hoping to win, but over time this becomes a habit so every day I think I have to gamble, fortunately I can control from just targeting to lose and win at a certain amount.

I have a professional history connected with the casino. I work as a web designer and once I was offered to create a site that reviews the best casinos.  It seemed interesting to me and I decided "why not?"
Then, in the process, I just got into the casino. This is pure mathematics and a bit of luck.

But most of all I like to play slots, probably because they are very colorful. And I prefer something bright and feminine.

I play simply because I like and interesting. But I always know my measure.

1.Enjoying- How much money does it go to weekly?
I just voted number 2 in the poll because it is totally enjoying to play gambling especially if you play your favorite gambling games. I'm not that kind of gambler who allocate huge amount of money playing and I usually spend 30$ - 50$ per week in playing gambling.
I do agree, actually games has been made to give us enjoyment while playing using our money, it is important that you are enjoying since it is the sole purpose of it aside from earning.

4.Fun- You play Ofline or online casino?
I usually play in online casino which is more convenient than going to real casino and play different gambling games. It's more fun in playing online casino and it just like playing in real casino because all games are already there.
Same here, I prefer to play card games and roulettes since I find it easy to play and fun at the same time. It also give you an intense feeling while playing.

There's real gamblers who deal to this type of betting, supporting the team to the point of blindly betting to add excitement while watching the game.

For whatsoever reasons gamblers are betting in hope that they will get something, not just the money but the total entertainment .
It's up to the person how he deals and enjoy.
