Gamblers divide into two main categories , those who gamble for fun and take it as a hobby or a fun activity , and those who sadly make their life -destroy- it through gambling . The 1st category are people who make enough money from their actual jobs , the second ones are just lazy people who just want to be rich very quickly .
Sometimes when your mind is unstable and you can not control yourself, gambling only gives you one effect, that is destroying your life. Because if you gamble for fun does not mean you will have no chance to ruin your own life, it still depends on you, if you do not control yourself well, it will eventually be the same.
That is a fact. It all balls down to controlling yourself at the end. So many people usually think if they tell themselves they are gambling only for fun, it will help.

No way! As long as you are not some rich dude with a lot of cash to throw around knowing there is more to come from your investments, there would be a slight chance of getting knocked off balance and becoming addicted which like you said will ruin until the person gets back to his senses which is pretty difficult too once deep.

Everyone have different reason to gambling
To take profits or just for fun or fill the empty time
But in my side i am gambling to take profits
Although all we know that its risk but who knows if i am lucky i will win Cheesy

I gamble just for fun and passing the time. I believe that everyone should play for the enjoyment and not with the intentions or greed to win big amount; if you failed then you will be disappointed and might play more and loose more money if you look for covering the previous loss.
I do not gamble that much anyway. Just that most times, when I have a few free cash lying around, I always want to have some fun and some little bit of rush at the same time. Gambling has always been fun most especially poker. Once I am done with what I came in with, then I am done for that gambling session which usually could just be once in 2 weeks and if I dash away with some wins too, then all the same. Just the fun and I purposely set my mind to that so I don't get messed up. lol
The main thing that this hobby does not affect your financial condition and moral stability of your loved ones. The fact is that gambling always contributes to negative consequences.
That is partly true, gambling does not always contribute to negative consequences. There are times when it can help people. Like for example, in our country, the government holds their own gambling games and sites or even gets a percentage over the casinos. Then the government uses those funds to help people that are in need of help. That is something positive.

   I gamble with money I can afford to lose. My bets on sport are always around couple dollars
maximum. I do not bet to win some huge money, I bet cause I like to test my prediction skills
in soccer and I like to watch matches I bet on. I enjoy in watching and if I win some money
that is like some double pleasure.
   Beside betting on sports I do not play other gambling games, there are a lot of them and most
of them are lucky games, I do not think about myself as a lucky man. I will stick with my betting
on sports, and I think I explained nicely why I like that.

This is a sad reality indeed on the field of gambling world.Players can really be differentiated on this two things and telling about the ratio there are lots of lazy people who do play gambling because on thinking on getting rich in an instant which you have been also saying up here.We should gamble only on the amounts that we can afford to lose.Once we put our money on gambling sites we should consider those funds are lost already.
you must first decide on your capabilities and with your desires, and already then begins to think about why you gamble or how to get rid of. There are such opportunities for everyone But not for everyone. There are dependent people for whom gambling is already a drug.

I, with the help of gambling, relax. I still lose or not, the main thing is to relax from work. Gambling is very suitable for this.
It definitely depends on the person who is playing. In your case, it is different but what I saw most, people gamble for getting money. They have mindset of getting easy money by anyways so they prefer gamble and ultimately lose everything. Still you are somehow better if you play for relaxation only.
The reason behind gambling varies from person to person. Some people gamble only for the sake of fun and they have no count of their money before betting or have no regrets upon their losses. I usually gamble when I get free time from my hectic day to day routine.

The other possibility is that people gamble when they are in a need of money and try their luck in bad times.

You can't blame those people gambling is addicting for everyone when you hit your first roll and win you feel happy amd then they can't control get addicted and done some gamble to get profit which won't happen

Well they gamble based on their feelings and superstition but I gambled on sports based on my understanding of the game and the circumstances surrounding the teams I'm about to bet on. It gives me absolute control and if I'm lucky and all things become equal I win.

I play gambling when I'm bored and I want to have some fun, but I'm independent of this and I can stop at any time so as not to lose all means. Although sometimes I hope for a big win Roll Eyes

It is just a hard problem also when you have won a bigger amount. It will be another gamble all over again.
You will not stop until you double that profit of what you have already won.
If it loses again you will be using the deposited money until you lose.
Happened to me always. I would rather win small where I can stop than win big to just gamble again.
Greed is the most infuencing factor that keeps gambler in the game for long and every winning pumps up this emotion. Like you said, the gambler will keep on coming back in search of more profits and this is the worst mistake in their lives. They end up losing all their wealth and few borrow money also. Gmablers must have a good control over their emotions and temptation.

That's why every gambler needs to control his emotions first before embarking on his gambling expedition because he can easily be victimized by addiction and emotional disorder.

That is why you need a personal discipline when you start pursuing gambling because it's a slippery road and if you don't know how to control your emotions you might end up on the wrong side . Don't juhst feel too happy and gamble your pocket away because you won a fraction of your bankroll.

Sometimes gambling is not suitable to relax, can we still relax if we already losing? I don't think so, especially when we we're going to lose huge amount. Losing money can't be a relaxation. Maybe we can just use gambling to play with our spare time.

i think we can have relax while we played gambling especially if we played with our friends because when we are loss or win, our friends will yell or say don't too sadly or anything and it makes us not too sad when we are loss. some people express their feeling freely without any sadness in their face and they has just fun with this.
But losing money is not fun at all, instead you just play because you just want to do something with your spare time, which is okay even if we lose a little of our money. It is okay for us to gamble if we just bet small amount and play with spare time.

Expressing fake our emotions are too hard to do, but sometimes we does because we don't people see us to be weak and look for us as a loser.
