This is a simple question, but one with a much deeper meaning.

Have you ever considered the reason behind your gambling habit or in some cases addiction? Do you gamble for fun or do you gamble for potential profit?

Do you gamble because you are bored or because you have some medical condition that prevents you from going out to experience other type of entertainment?

Do you gamble, because you hope that a big jackpot will solve all your debt problems or that a big jackpot would fund your dreams?

We should always consider why we do specific things in life and if those things are constructive or damaging in some way and then evaluate our actions to prevent harmful situations.

Looking forward to your responses. Cheesy

Of course my initial thought when gambling is because I think that I would make money from that.
On a second stage, I do it because I watch sports and I love it so when I gamble I have an anticipation for a result. This gives me a great feeling and entertainment.

I sometimes play for two different reasons and they really differ from each other. The fact is that if there are certain means, I can just have fun watching certain games on time, because I consider myself an expert on some teams. Here I have certain confidence in my earlier. But the second reason appears when I see an opportunity to earn good money and then excitement pushes me to bet.

my reason for gambling is for fun and to win big money. it doesn't matter if i win or loose but i know my limit when to stop.

Just like me. I like the thrills and excitement that comes with gambling but that doesn’t not stop me aiming at making profits but then even when I lose, I do not feel hurt because I take that at that moment as the prize I have paid for the fun, but while still aiming at making profit and as well setting limit to when to stop playing.

This has been my method of gambling for years now and I believe it’s the best. Those who never agree to wanting to get money from gambling are not honest because I know no one enjoys losing their money at all times regardless of how little it is.

Thats the part of the deal though. You gamble because you wanted to be entertained and that kind of entertainment comes with risking your own money and hoping it would win. The only difference is that, those who gamble with an intention to intertain, comes home happy when loss and those who gamble who have a sole purpose of winning come home depressed when lost.

Been in that situation after playing in the neighborhood poker game, I got home without nothing even to buy a burger for myself. I have to call my sisi to come over and lend me money. Sure I enjoyed the laughters on the table and the drinks but that's it I still lost my cash. It must be worse for someone who has a family to take care and got home nothing to provide for the hungry mouths.

Would be good if you try LOTEU Weekly Lottery, at their site they have the list of the winners Weekly Lottery. The chance was not really small, I checked at Etherscan most of user/participant Weekly Lottery can win the price only with 1 Weekly Tickets.

That's why, I think LOTEU was a really good site for the Weekly Lottery.

For me, I gamble for fun and entertainment. I’m not a fun of gambling aiming to win the big jackpot or make a potential profit. I’m a fun of gambling/gaming for making the game much serious, much challenging, and also to become much competitive because at the young age I know how to handle well so money I know my priorities. Also, I’m not lucky at some games that usually need some lucky I much prepare some games that you need some skills and talent to win.

I always happy when gamble said that he is playing for fun and entertainment not for addiction wise. I suggest you be strong forever in gambling, because if you accept it that you are not too much lucky then may be you can't make a successful gambler, so in the end don't forget you are playing gambling only for fun.

I can safely say that I already graduated wasting my money in gambling casinos but I still gamble though but not that much now because I only play sportsbook and it's only related with Basketball because I love it and the last time I participated was on NBA playoffs, I lost a lot of money back then I will never go back again, I learned my lessons.

I gamble for fun and most importantly for profit because that's were the fun comes from when you are winning Grin

It’s unfortunate that we always have to waste money before realizing the truth in gambling. Same thing happened to me but not like you I had to retire completely, although I hope to be back to gambling but I must have learnt ways to becoming successful.

It hurts when we lose in gambling, either gambling for fun or money because we commit money in it but then, the addictive nature in gambling would not let us quit. The best is learning the tactics of winning so that even when we play for fun or money, we can still be happy gamblers.

I don’t think anyone going into gambling should really be pained when they lose, because they ought to have fully known about gambling before playing it and knowing fully well that it is a game of luck. It is not every day that luck shines on people, so anyone gambling should know that it is a won or lose situation and the best approach is exactly what you have stated, we just have to play it for fun.

The best way to also avoid getting addicted is just to reduce the rate at which we gamble,whatever one does often without giving space will surely become addictive overtime.

It seems you tend to be a gamer than a gambler. I don't blame you with your own purpose in playing gambling since everyone has their own expectation. But I think only a few gamblers that playing for fun only and not expect to win. Most of them expect to win and get money by playing gambling. It is normal, they won't spend their time for fun only.

That was right we have our own purpose why we engage in gambling, but for me, while having fun I also like earning on it. I like those thrill when I am on gambling because it gives me more excitements especially in betting games or even in matches game. However, I only gamble once I have an available fund or free bitcoin on my wallet. If you are chasing money on gambling that is not good.

I entered into the gambling field in the situation when the Bitcoin had less expectation and the list value after 2017 because of making the profit to be double for my life that is the reason why I am in turning to the gambling field but mostly I had good experience in this field.

I respect those people who are working hard and find ways to double their money and came into gambling for looking at some opportunity in here but I don't know if everything will come at its best or we lost it instead. I know there is no assurance that we can double our money in gambling but who knows if we are lucky enough and win the jackpot cause everyone has the chance and hoping you'll be the one.

The reason why i gamble, because of the profit that everyone wants to gain. This is why some gamblers are addicted in gambling. Because if your lucky its easier to earn money. Everyone wants easy money, so thats why most people gamble.

Then what if you lose?what will happen to your need to profit?

Why not invest in crypto instead of risking in gambling that in which you said is need to be lucky?while in bitcoin investing there’s sure profit though needed some time to make possible

For some people, they really better to do gambling for instant money instead of invest in coin or maybe do trading. Even it is rare, i have meet someone who really do it. When he lose, he not feel any regret or any kind like that.

For me, the motivation behind starting to gamble had been the money. To be honest, in sports gambling, it is a combination of both money and excitement plus thrill that gives you surprises. Crypto gambling has made this very lucrative as well and you do not have to pass a KYC which means you would not need to give tax on the money that you make in crypto gambling for your identity stays disclosed.

TBH between profit and fun, the motive for me will always be profit! It's never a nice thing to lose money and say you are having fun, it's hypocritical.

Am not a fan of jackpots and don't believe in them either because as far as I know these depend on how much you wager, and am prudent enough to bet with only what I can afford to lose unless someone says I have the wrong concept of how jackpots work.

Quote from: rachman mahesa on June 25, 2019, 02:34:43 AM

Everyone who likes gambling certainly has different goals in general. For me personally, Gambling is my hobby and I always play gambling when I'm free. And the goal is to get profit (if you win), have fun and look for luck in the jackpot. So hobbies in gambling will provide great benefits for earning income. And I'm not an addict, I can control every time I play.

Atleast someone is honest with their reason for gambling,which is to get profits! These days I find it difficult to believe people that say gambling for them means fun only Tongue

I also wonder if people still give this as a reason....

If he lose, he will lose his money as well. Then he will taking a loan from people to gamble again, after that, he will lose again and ended up with big amount of loan. In the end, he will ended in jail

Always remember, most of people hate to earn money slowly, they just want to earn money quickly

Yes.Gambling may be a quick way to make money but it also makes us lose our money in just an hour or minute.So it's not really advisable to depend much on gambling for survival.Gambling may be more profitable if we look at it as more of an entertainment or a source of leisure than considering it as a source of income.

Most perfect gambler if you are speaking truth.

But when you are doing gambling as a hobby then don't expect the profits from it which is the root to evil of gambling addiction.

I have different reason's why I used to gamble before ,
The main reason would be being bored I use it to have fun while trying to earn some profit,
I also gamble when I feel lonely back then I would visit some gambling site's just to be with some of my online friends.

Before?? Does that mean you no longer gamble or you now have a different reason for gambling? I started gambling for just one reason and that reason have not changed till date. My aim of gambling is for profit making and there’s nothing anyone can do to change this.

I know some still come to advise me to play for fun but I don’t really give a damn. Casino owners created their sites to make money not for fun, so I see no reason why as a player, I will not think of making money from gambling. If gambling if for entertainment or fun like many preach, then the casino sites should make those interesting games free and we would also not be desperate to make money or win from the games like we do.

Why do we gamble? Simply, we have money. Eventhough, we want to gamble because it is our habits or we want to play during leisure time if we don't have the capability to bet in a game, we can't afford to sit in gambling. Only players who have money or excess money are those who have strength to play. I often play gambling because I am just starting at cryptocurrency.

It's because we want to feel about playing games using money involve inside the games and we want to get the experience of playing gambling. No matter if we lose or win at the first time we have a gamble, we can enjoy the game, but soon, after we played for some time, our greediness become bigger, and we want to win the games to get the money. That happens to many gamblers who don't have any reason to play gambling for the first time. But later, they become addicted to gambling, and they always play gambling every day.
