Topic: why do people always play gambling even if they always lose? - page 2. (Read 2269 times)

So many gamblers have seen gambling as a short cut from poverty which is not true. Loses is eminent as gamblers and that is one of the things that make us want to gamble more with better luck next time. There are always bad days and good days in gambling and that is why we need to be prepared and ready for any outcome that could surface while playing bets. Greed is one of the reasons why we could keep losing bets if we keep working with emotions. Consistency without being greedy is one of the ways we can keep making money from gambling.

Winning is really just that a bonus aside from the fun and entertainment that we do get from gambling. Somehow it cant really be just that avoided that you would really be needing up to think up on how you should gonna win and also even if you do say that you do just play for fun but on the moment that you would be losing up money then you cant be able to deny that losing money is never been fun and this is why on the moment that it do happens then majority of gamblers would really be able to have those reactions on which they would really be chasing up those loses and that fun that you are seeking would really be leading up into that chasing up loses kind of scenario on which this would really be resulting into that impulsive and desperation kind of approach on which this is really that commonly happening in most gamblers.

There are actually people who do play for the sake of fun and wont mind about on the money that they are losing but only a few who could really be able to sustain or maintain out such composure on which they do able to retain up that kind of mindset and wont really be able to change despite of the situation that they are really that into. Good for you to be able to maintain up such thing but majority will fail on this one.
Actually its never been that bad to gamble as long you do find yourself that responsible when it comes to spending or the budget that you are allocating in. The main issue for most gamblers is that on the moment that they have lost or experiencing those losing streaks is that they do lose up their cool and they do lose up their initial limit thinking before they had gambled. 

Exactly, it is a bonus when we win because whether we win or not we can always say that we're up for it to have fun. But there's no denying that the most preferred reason why we do this is because of the money. Who's not going to have fun if it's about the money? We all do have fun when we have money and that's why even if we're going to deny it, there's no way that someone isn't going to like why he's gambling if he's winning. The good thing is that, accepting the losses is a matter of fact that's hard to accept. Not everyone can say that he's up for fun but can't accept the losses, of course we have to accept them and continue as we wish to do so and bet the way we're doing it even before. So, the sensation stays for quite a while and then when no good results will be realized, that's when we contemplate whether it's still fun.

They have their speculation that can make them back to gambling. That is because they see some people win from gambling so that attract them to keep playing gambling no matter if they always lose. They believe that they can win some day so that can make them to still gambling and maybe they will explore the other gambling games that have more chances to win. They must be careful spending their money because gambling is not like a job that can gives them money. They can easily lose their money in gambling especially if they can control themselves as we see many people experienced that and bankrupt in a short time. People who always play gambling and lose their money must realize that gambling is not for them and it is better to stop gambling for some time to think more about keep their gambling habit or doing their spare time to search for the other chances to make money.

People are inclined for gambling ^{(no matter whether they lose or win)} because according to the science speculation  there is a  specific gene in their genome which make them biased to gambling. I hear more than often in my surrounding the phrases like this one - I can bet my bottom dollar-  which support such inference.Sure the frequency of such phrases  depends on  the perceived gambling accessibility   in the  given country but in general they are widespread.

Is it true that people return to gambling after each loss because they want to have fun or do they think they will have a chance to win back what they lost? People always give the reason that they gamble for fun and entertainment but I think that is not the main reason, the real reason is that people want to make more money from the money they are willing to lose. And gambling with money we are willing to lose does not mean we are seeking pleasure, but rather we are taking risks in search of big rewards.

I think we keep coming back to gambling no matter how much we have lost before not because it is fun but because we do not accept defeat and seek luck until we win. But when we win, we still don't stop because we want to win more, this is always a vicious cycle that makes us unable to escape gambling.

To chase losses is also a reason why gamblers continue betting, even though they always lose. They believe losses are just temporary, so they continue gambling until they can revert the situation on their favour (what never happens, considering the house wins on long term). These gamblers even use motivational sayings to endorse their disfunctional gambling behavior. One of the most common is that one: "You only lose when you quit".

Then they play until the final consequences, that is, until the last penny and until getting finally bankrupted. However, I believe it just happens with a small percentage of the total number of gamblers. Most gamblers will just give up at some point, before losing their entire patrimony to gambling.

Yes of course what you said is true but the percentage of people who do this is still very small, just look at most of the gamblers who are not really looking for fun or entertainment but they are chasing profit.
People who gamble for fun can be sure not to care about their losses because they have set the money they are prepared to lose, but people who gamble for profit continue to bet even though they lose lot and have spent all their money, there is worse condition here for those who are chasing profit.
Talking about continuing to gamble even though they always lose I would say people who have the wrong approach will always be at the forefront.

Getting fun from gambling is the reason why people still comes back to gambling. Besides that, they have a chance to win some money if they are lucky.
But they must learns and know about the risk behind of gambling which can cause them losing their money. If they can accept all things while playing gambling, they can playing gambling but they must have control over themselves to avoid big lose.
We can deny that passion to playing gambling will be there and make us come back over and over. It needs a control from us not to playing gambling too often if we still want to use gambling as a way of fun so we don't have to get a problem after play gambling.

There are two possibilities that can be considered or thought about, the first is with those whose mindset is seeking profit, like someone who gambles they think that they can get a win or profit by gambling this encourages them to continue gambling even though they have experienced consecutive defeats, even usually I think there will be more aggressive behavior when they experience defeat because they do not accept what happened, that is defeat.

The second is with those who do it just for fun, to fill their free time or indeed a hobby. People who gamble like this tend not to think about the defeat that occurs, the good thing is they don't mind the defeat or loss of money that occurs, but the difference in my opinion is that people like this tend to have good self-control where when they experience defeat they do not continue their gambling but stop to rest and come back another time.

There is no denying that some people gamble to find an extraordinary adrenaline rush from gambling so they risk money to make the gambling atmosphere more interesting, to be honest, defining the pleasure of gambling has many things, including because of money, because of the feeling it gets or because of the game there are many things that can be used as reasons for someone to want to gamble again, some even try their luck at gambling, of course some people who feel good and have hopes for gambling will give feedback to that person whatever it is they will come back again even if they lose.

Gambling alone is fun but you can’t deny that winning or at least the promise of doing so is what makes it exciting and enjoyable. Some people find enjoyment in games but the stakes are what makes it really thrilling for them. Even more so if you win and earn some money. Without the risks, it’s not that exciting since you are just playing for the sake of it. Some people keep on trying to catch this high of getting close to a win or winning itself. The money sometimes is just a bonus though certainly a very much preferred one.

For the people who never think about the lose of money in gambling, they can always gamble for fun and don't care whether to lose or win. But if the people still care with their money and don't want to lose it in gambling, it won't be a fun activity. Instead of getting entertainment, they can be more stressed because they lose money in gambling. So, not every one wants to choose gambling for having fun after they work all day. If they want to get fun, they can go to picnic, vacation, or play free games.

The quest of recovery at this point could be a reason keeping them in the game long enough even while they are still loosing because they are going to believe they will be bale to recover their money if only they stay long enough they will eventually get a chance but when it turns out they just back out at a point in time, maybe they will never get to be bale to fix that and so this is their chance and so they will continually stay to use it even if they are loosing.

It's always the thought of having fun but it's the secondary reason why many are continuing in gambling even if the results aren't favorable to them. Just like me, I do really having fun although my losses are obvious and I just try again and bet for some day again because that's what I think is giving me some fun. But I won't deny the fact that I am also wanting to get some profit but so, if I lose and no profit at all. I can revert my mind and attention into saying that I am not gambling for profit but mainly to have fun and vice versa.

one man's meal is another man's poison. It solely dependent on how much fun he derives from it, not how much he spends. Now, the fact that you don't wager on these games doesn't make you more responsible, but that he abuses the game by losing everything/ not quitting after accumulating too many losses is enough reason to say he's gullible to anything that'd seem like a route to make money. The problem is your friend, not the fact that he gambles!
Unless this was a rhetorical question, how are we supposed to know this? You're in the best position to tell us since you're much more closer to them than us.

Switching over to sport betting doesn't make any difference. As long as this is about some transactional process of staking and expecting a more huge return, the odds are against you, the bettor.

And if they are not just having fun alone and are playing for the profit but have been losing in most of their bet, we can also say that their reason for not stopping is also for them to try to profit back all that they have lost to the casino, as most people don't like taking defeat no matter what. Even when they can clearly see that they are losing too much, they still believe that they have their lucky day, and once that time comes, they will start winning.

Accurate, people give their different reasons why they still engage in gambling and with op point I don’t think anyone should leave just because they lose. For the love of the game they still can’t quit besides I play my favorite game for the love of soccer despite the fact I win and lose. Investment purpose also depend on the amount a gambler gets in return if there’s a good profit or else it’s best they withdraw quickly instead of going continuously.

Yes I totally agree with you that addiction always comes from greed. When someone wants to give big jackpot from gambling, there is a tendency to gamble continuously. And because of this, even though he continues to lose, he cannot give up gambling.  Because he has a big jackpot from gambling that he has a tendency to do as he hears from other people's stories. If someone wins a large amount from gambling, he tends to spread it widely. Especially when someone hears such stories from his friends or acquaintances, he increases his gambling. Due to which they lose a lot of money but still cannot quit gambling

People have different reasons to why they engage in gambling. Some people go into gambling to unwind after they must have faced a tiring and hectic day during the day while others engage in gambling for fun not necessarily because they are stressed out or so but because they find fun in gambling and will always want to gamble when they have the opportunity. Someone else somewhere will go into gambling strictly for business sake. To invest money and make profit from whatever it is that they have invested. The truth is gambling will always mean different things to different people.
