Many of us choose number 5, and I think it's because we are curious about our luck. And with playing gambling, we could see if we have a chance or not to win. Maybe this day we are lost, but we still have the other days, and we can come back to the game tomorrow and play another round. In that day, we could hope that we will have the luck so we could win with ease.
I believe it is about boredom for me really, I feel like gambling is quite entertaining and something that I have not been bored so far. I have played many games in my life, I am in no way a proper "gamer" but I do have a steam account filled with games and most of them have around 20-25 hours game play time, I get bored of games after I play them for 20+ hours.
Nevertheless, I have been gambling for years and that has always made me a bit of fun really, sometimes I get bored of it but after a break I can come back to it and play it like nothing happened. That is why gambling is just way to entertain myself when I am bored that's it. I never played to earn money, never played it with the idea of betting big or winning big, I see it like a computer game at best and I am just spending money on that that's all.

I belong to the 5th category. I used to gamble for some fun and relaxation but, when i got some cash from playing, it made me more interested in money than fun. I don't play with more than i could afford to lose. That's why I never had a bad feeling from gambling. Except the 4th category I guess all other category traits can be found in me.
I chose number 5, to make money is the only reason why I keep on trying but i'm not a full time gambler. Just when I have extra funds. Gambling is the only thing that gives all of my pleasure for how many years now. But there's a time that I can resist playing, maybe because i'm thinking of a better way rather than taking risk.

5. Occassional gambler - trying luck
Although i'm not a full time gambler like many others on the forum, but do gamble occasionally just for luck purposes. Sometime i win with surprises even not gambling for win intentionally. Winnings come when a gambler gamble with the mindset of luck.
For me it's definitely for the adrenaline rush, I just find it pretty exciting to play a couple of games of Roulette and have a chance to get out with more than I came in.
I think that the people who gamble for the adrenaline rush can get addicted though.
It's exactly that feeling that causes people to get addicted, even more so than someone who just gambles occasionally.
The first two categories are usually belongs to a safer category who doesn't usually become addicted. However, the next three are the most vulnerable categories where people tend to get addicted! So identify your reason please!

I can fit into the last category,trying my luck when I have spare money to spend.Only people with the intention og get rich quick will say gambling is bad when they can't find a win even they will continue to play by saying that so they are here to make money but tey are the reason behind gambling industry's success. 
I'll choose number 5 
But I always realize that I don't have that luck
Playing gambling was for try my luck, and although I cannot win the money, at least I have an experience of playing gambling on many websites. And who knows, in one day, I can win some money so I will celebrate it with my family.

1. Relaxation
I gamble for this reason mostly. I feel much better after making some bets, regardless of the outcome, because what I look for is switching my activity to something entirely different from what I do for living. And then I can do my job in a more relaxed way compared to doing it without a break.
2. Adrenaline rush
Sometimes yeah, but rarely. In practice this only happens during weekends when I buy more expensive tickets than I usually buy for poker tournaments, and I play in hopes of winning hundreds of USD. During those games I can feel an adrenaline rush occasionally, that's true. But I'm definitely not addicted to it, because I'm doing it once per month or even more rare than that.
3. Get rich quick scheme
Definitely not my cup of tea.
4. Make money fulltime
I'm not one of those lucky guys. So, no, I never even think of making money fulltime with gambling.
5. Occasional gambler - trying luck
Yeah, that's me during some weekends, like I said above.

You could say that I belong to the 1st category since I usually gamble for fun and relaxation basically. I used to dream of earning riches through the gambling world after seeing many people accomplish it successfully, but decided to take the low risk route and stuck to gambling for fun only.
I prefer non-gambling options over gambling options to earn money regularly basically.

I gamble to relieve some stress but seem's like the other way around.
I like to gamble for fun the thrill and of course the profit and there are times that I would just chat at a gambling site to relax.

my reason why im gambling is 3, because who wouldn't want to be rich without exerting any effort, i was naive before and just do jack shit with my money and developed a habit a bit later then blewing up a grand if it wasn't for my greediness i could pocket that 1 grand before.
Yes many users here post negative or bad about gambling again in again like you can turn addict and more still it depends on you like me i gamble because of what i feel like this is really good then i want to learn all things even this is risky like in gambling here in crypto and at the same time i can earn while doing this for past time,Moreover i think gamble is part of life so we need to try this
It’s better if you just created a poll of this to closely monitor the result.
I’m just an occasional gambler where my friends invites me to play, or when I feel bored surfing online. Occasional gambler are not prone to addiction because they only play when they have free time, and have control with their self. I believe those who are on the “get rich quick scheme” and “Make money full time” are the most vulnerable for addiction, they see gambling as their main source of money.

I gamble to relieve some stress at the same time to socialize with my friends or to get to know new people. I know that gambling is not a good habit to start with, that is why I limit my self. I enjoy gambling this way, because if you see it as a way to earn money I think it is more of a pressure than enjoyment.
Relaxation, I play when I'm feeling too saturated be able to fill my spare time. get rich quick schemes sometimes but not focus too much on getting rich quick cause gambling is luck, triggering the adrenaline is definitely I want cause gambling also makes my heart pound.
I play gambling because I feel I need to get entertainment. By playing gambling, I can get calm and avoid stress. Playing gambling is like something I have to do every weekend. I feel happy and I exercise control to avoid being addicted. Let's play gambling in a healthy manner and don't get unexpected adverse effects.
Number 2 it is, just need to be careful a bit so you did not feel addicted to it. And maybe it's more complicated than that, I like the adrenalin rush when I do gamble but I also want that quick rich scheme while only play occasionally.
I think perhaps, in number 2, you can add having fun. Having fun is different than relaxation and almost the same as releasing the tension which you might have.
I am having fun in the gamble, but I don't think that gambling is one place to feel relaxation because for me when I need to get relaxation, I will go to the massage parlors.
I don't want to get relaxation from gambling because I cannot relax in the game. Besides that, I think it's better to play gambling for fun only because we can play many games with our friends. We could feel another experience in gambling games that we could not find in other places.

Occasional gambler, I can place myself to this position as I only gamble when I have spare money and I wanted to support teams that I also love to watch, trying to gained something out from my favorites while enjoying cheering in front of my tv, NBA and our Local basketball league are those type of gambling that I usually been involved and occasionally place my bets.
I don't want to engage too much, People who got addicted mostly gamble because of lust in money.

I gamble to pass time and to relax as well. When I am in extreme pressure a few bets sometimes relaxes the body. I set a limit on the fund I can use so that I can control my gambling activities. Gambling has no bad effects on me.
