Sinbad Mixer: Mix Your BTC Quickly

Quote from: Josepht on August 29, 2017, 10:36:26 AM

I do gamble every now and then myself, but I am for sure not addicted.

Although I know my limits, it's really hard to stop when you're down. You can't stand the fact that you lose money, and you want to play more to get the money back.

I think it has a lot to do with the uncertainty of the outcome of the gamble. There always is a chance you win it back, so you're chasing your loss.

I thoroughly agree with you, one should know their limits. If you gamble too many times, you will get addicted. It is like a virus which spreads in your body bit by bit, you need to put a cure to prevent it from growing. As for me, I gamble because it is fun. To elaborate, I always consider it fun to watch people's reactions; when they are stressed, when they are afraid of losing, when they messed it up and lose. Added to that, I want to win and get easy money.

i am playing gambling is because i want to spend my free time in table round with my friends and since i am not too often to gambling, maybe in a month i only played not more than 5 time. i am agree with people that considering playing gambling as their way to get fun thing in their daily life. maybe we are boring in our activity and want to release the stress but if i can suggested, its better to do another activity than just playing gambling because we can loss our money.

It is a very good choice, because by assuming gambling as a pleasure then it will avoid us from the nature of dependence. So gambling will only become a game for a moment and will not make us interested to always play it. It can make us from losing the money we have because if you think gambling as a serious thing then we will lose much money and our life.

because gambling for me is a pleasure and it satisfied my daily needs, it helps me to complete my day and made my day so very happy, gambling was my addiction but i put control to my emotions and to my bet too, i really having some in here i very like this too much, hoping that i could earn some money more in here.

Part of my daily needs also is to be entertain, I don't expect anymore I will get my daily financial needs through gambling because I have tried so many times and I failed to achieve. I'm now a grown man, I know how to handle the game and I am not too much emotional with gambling, I played with the money intended to be spent and if I lose it doesn't matter as far as I am getting entertained.

From time to time after we realized and understand what are is for our life we will realized what we have to do, as for me I realized this is a pure fun only.

Gamblers should really have this kind of mentality and if this thing is being applied on them then we would really rare see gamblers that getting addicted or do broken their lives because of gambling.It is really just being designed for entertainment and money making is just really a bonus if you are lucky enough and saying that getting money from gambling to support your living is not possible.Instead on making money you will lose even more this is why we shouldnt risk too much.

First of all, i send my condolences to your family, family or your uncle and family of your friend. It really saddens me to hear stories like these that end in a tragic way. And this is the reality that gambling has. Anyone who are weak will be grabbed by gambling in the neck and will never be able to escape the chains thats binds them into gambling. One should consider first his personality before getting into something addictive so he knows what he can try amd what he cannot.
Greed and the uncertainty is what drives an addictive gambler.

I gamble solely because I want to beat the house and make profit. There are a lot of reasons that others have about gambling but I think hunk everyone apart from those reasons also wish to make some profits.

I play to have fun and I support those who do also. I have no dependence and desire to continue the game when I start losing money, I just reasonably enjoy.

This post is not intended to criticize gamblers, i am just curious what drives a gambler to really gamble even when the odds are against him or even reach the point where he'd rather lose everything he has than to stop doing his gambling addiction. I said the following because i have seen friends and some relatives on my mother's side literally lose everything they have like family, wealth etc. and only a few managed to stand up again. And some of that few still gamble to this day. And an uncle was found dead from a gunshot wound, whoever did it was unknown. But rumors say that it is one of all the guys he owed large money and never payed. While a friend(not close, just a neighbor) died from suicide because his wife left him along with his 14y.o daughter and 3y.o son. Now, I ask this because i dont get it. I just don't. I mean is it even worth it? If you ask me, i don't know. That is why i am asking. And the reason why i did it here is because we all know i can't ask a gambler with this kind of questions face to face because doing that would mean mean that I wanna start a fight. I mean that might how a gambler reacts to this kind of question. Please share your thoughts on this.

I gamble for entertainment or for fun because i know from myself that i could not win a lot of money in gambling. The only people who get rich in gambling is the dealer and the owner of a casino because all of our losses will go to them. That's why i only play when i have a extra money and when im bored.

Are you really sure that it's all about fun to you and that you don't get the bit sad whenever you lose your money, Gambling is all about the money and nothing else. Those who say they gamble for fun, why don't they just give their money to the casino already .

Yes gambling is all about money and oh I cant believe its all about fun and even losing money. Usually gambler always playing just to earn profit. You have a point in there those who got rich the owner because players cant win the game always.

Yes and people gamble either they are addicted to it or they want to make quick money in short time but most of the times people end up loosing and only the owners of casino makes money and get rich with it but its not wrong to try our luck sometimes on gambling and who knows if we are really lucky then we can make it really big in no time.

You are an intelligent person. I am satisfied with your thoughts. Though I don't have much of a gambling taste and never I have felt any respect for gamblers in my heart but still if a person gambles in a limit and for time pass, he is a better gambler than many others.

I also have the need to entertain myself while resting after a hard day's work. Gambling is the right model compared to online games, I am also aware of the age that is no longer young, at least in the comfortable time I also continue to be productive, I do not think lose and win because there is a special money allocation just for fun.

That is pretty nice . You do gamble for entertainment and not for profit . Gambling is really good in entertainment though there are ton of peoples that the gambling is source of their income , though the professional one can earn it but not always, it could lead to addiction and it could ruin your life. Just play smartly in gambling and have fun

Same with you, I choose the gambling as my entertainment because it is my relaxation and my past time. I did not use the gambling in finding an income because I know that if this happen I'm become addicted in gambling. For me the meaning of gambling is a things that will bring us to nothing in the end, so instead of focusing on this, I play once a month because of friendship purpose only.

playing gambling for me is just an entertainment only, I spent some time to find pleasure in the game of gambling. many people out there who only play with the goal of winning, this is not in my opinion will make the person easy to live his life. because when someone wants to benefit from gambling games then he will be easier to get addicted. this is what makes me think that when too impose the will to benefit from gambling game then this can make us fall to the abyss of addiction. addiction is a thing that most people fear.

I play for pleasure. I have no dependence and purpose to make profit from each game, I just like the process of the game and I can stop without any problems at any moment in order not to lose all the money.

I wish this is the purpose of every player and not to target winnings. Most of the time people thinking that they will profit from gambling end up losing money
and gambling leaves a bad taste in their mouths. The problem too is that they spread a lot of bad publicity because they lost in gambling. Sometimes the
casino is also imputed and called a cheat.
