its the same for me , i like watching sports but i dont real have a "team" so betting on matches make me atleast want one team to win and i will enjoy the games way more that way.

This is the reason I started gambling.

My friends usually bet on an NBA game and usually in the Conference Finals and NBA Finals. They asked me about it and I joined in and when they left for their works, I was left alone and no one to bet on so I find a way to bet and that is when I started to bet online. I have a favorite team and yes, I bet on it but there are times that I don't especially when I think it will not be a game for them. I read some articles and some tips from you know where to bet on the good teams to earn some profit.

To.profit lol
I am not a hypocrite person to deny my true intention when playing but i also wanted to have fun as well

Many people here always keep on telling that a gambling must be for fun but how come that there are Pot in each game?that's the clear meaning of playing to win and not just to enjoy

But of course with limitation as i also believe in gambling the most important way to prevent becoming a addict is to have self control and money management

Profit and entertainment these are the two main objectives why we gamble, but entertainment should be your primary reason, if you go for profit you will find your self in a quick sand, every time you try to escape, you will go deeper, I have seen so many gamblers who are after profit only to lose everything.

I gamble because I guess this is the only time I feel like enjoying myself. I don't have any other hobbies except for playing games. Sometimes I got bored on playing and I sometime tried gambling and I thought that it was fun and I'm earning at least a little.

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 guess it's in the blood of my family or shall i say we are addicted to gambling already but somehow i tried to manage my losses because i am just purely playing for fun and not really onto earning some profit. Unlike before that was the time that i tried everything just to get back my losses but i end up losing more instead.

Gambling as fun is what we all claim but in reality, I think we are here to make money. I will not go into gambling that involves risks to my capital because of fun. If gambling is not a profit-making venture I will not even go into it. If I am looking for fun the best things to do is to go and play the game especially those free one that I can download through the apple store or google play store.

Honestly, everyone has their own reasons but the most common one comes down to just one thing ; being bored. If people are bored there is no limit to what they can do.

Playing on a casino is the most stupid thing anyone can do yet we all do it anyway, there is a place literally saying we will be taking your money and we are doing it legally with our house edge and telling you upfront that we have more advantage to win than you and will take your money mathematically speaking and people still play there, we are all willing to accept the fact that mathematically speaking the odds are against us and we will be losing money yet we still do it.

All that is because we are bored and we want to do something that is fun and gambling even if you lose is super fun.

What make me do gamble is, dice is when i curious, Secondly when there are some competition or contest like what Primedice held. I rarely play dice and casino games. And sportsbet is when team that i like play. This is my only reason why i gamble.
All these are good games, if you are good at dice you should gamble with it, there are so many games we can choose one of our interest, sports betting is beneficial for those who have good experience with good games, we can play poker, I am good with it and recently have won one game for betting at 40k dollar.

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

I gamble for fun and at the same time at the back of my head I'm looking for a possibility that I can hit the jackpot, matured gambler gamble for fun but they should also hope to win the jackpot, so what if you hit the jackpot, it could be a life changing depending on the pot.
Yes. Same with my thoughts too. I gamble because i got entertained with it and most of the time, i also hope that i'll be too lucky to win such a big amount. I really believe that most of the gamblers are not just here for fun alone but also to make profits too. Gambling is definitely full of thrill especially when you hit the jackpot when you least expect it.

Frequently I used to go to gamble in sports betting sites. since I have great love towards football matches and cricket now, I am gambling on sports betting.
If you ask someone why do you gamble they might say it was their entertainment or to make the jackpot.
This is not easy deal while you continuously gamble, so give a breaks take a time to learn the skills. Then you will be able to make money here...

Because I will never have financial freedom unless I get very lucky, I simply don't have the capital to start a business even though I have many good ideas.  I realize its a hail mary but at least it is something, right.
But haven’t you imagine that those amount you spent in gambling ?if you gather them all and just hold until now?do you think how much all of those?thats the idea of being a gambler than those gathering money little by little I hope you get what I’m trying to say mate

I am not saying that I don’t gamble because I am not hypocrite but at least I only play the amount that I get from sideline and extra income

Most of the time I gamble because im bored, and gambling is my way to entertain myself.

It gives me joy and makes me forget for a while my current problem.

Well we have different reasons why we gamble but we should keep in mind that its not a way to earn decent money.


If you just gambled for an hour or just one day in a week, we can consider it but if we gambled almost every day it sounds like we are in addiction. There is a temptation in gambling especially when you won the jackpot prize cause in your mind you can make it again and that's how it drags you into the hell of addiction. Often to happen to those individuals who brought their winning price in a single bet and lose, they will be trying to bring it back and that's the reason why they gamble every day.

I gamble once a week, just for fun. I go to the casino once every few months with friends.

I do it the same. Once a week with a small bet. Losing wont change my life, winning also, but I’ll buy a couple of beers for it.

Anyway it is more fun to gamble, than not to  Cheesy

But remember, you need to control yourself in the game because I have bad experiences in the games. We don't want to see ourselves losing all of the money because we want more winning. Yes, I agree with you that more fun to gamble in once in a week so we can have fun with our friends.

Many of us have a reason for playing gambling, and many of them want to chase the win money which they cannot always get in the gambling games. So we need to reminded that we should not get deeper into the gambling games.

I gambled as i wanted to earn some quick money and i was very excited about it. Initially, i won a few, as i continued i lost all my funds. I tried a few time, but i wasn't successful.
^ This is what you want why do you gamble? It is just like chasing money which possible to turn you into addiction in gambling. Frankly speaking, gambling is not intended for me as a way of having quick money, I won't tolerate my self doing such a thing. I gamble sometimes when I got bored or after work that needs to rest and can't sleep earlier and I don't mind if I lose or win as long as entertain and kill the time will be passed.
