Topic: Why not play games online instead of gambling? - page 10. (Read 5610 times)

Gambling brings different feeling and it could give us satisfaction.
In gambling especially the skilled based type of game, when you are good, you can make your talent to earn.
Unlike in online games where you just earn some reputation, gambling is being wise in spending your time if you are making money from it.

I don't like play games online, but I do playing gambling in my free time. Although I don't have any favorite gambling game, I am trying to play various games in the gambling site. Sometimes I lose, but sometimes I win small money which I can use for the next day. It's not easy to control the passion that came up to me especially if I earn money. There are too many sounds inside my head keeps telling me to try the next round but the good news, I choose to stop the game.

We can gamble in any way, as long as it is legal and you’re ready to lose money go for it. I also don’t hear any games that paying high amount of money just to patronize their product.

I have to agree that most of the gambling still want to gamble online because they used to play that and they already know how that thing works. Gamblers wants an easy money, so they will not choose to play games online because for them its boring.

Playing games with our effort and earning with gambling is more different things because gambling is best of luck things and it is not work in all time but Playing Games will be work in all time if we are experience on that so this is the basic differences between them but gambling is more powerful than playing games this it's my opinion.

Some people place gaming and gambling into different categories, while others look at them as one in the same. For these latter individuals, both words refer to wagering money at games like pokies, roulette, and blackjack in the hopes of winning even larger sums of cash.
The average bloke tends to refer to the hobby as gambling, because that’s exactly what the definition of the word refers to. Whether they’re wagering money at a land-based casino or in the back of their local pub, they’re not ashamed to admit that they’re gambling.


The gambling industry, however, isn’t too fond of the word “gambling.” They think it presents their customers as greedy deviants and unlucky losers, as well as fostering the idea that casino games are a major risk to the player’s wallet (which is correct). To combat this negative stereotype, they looked up the word “gaming” and started using it in place of gambling which I think is very good.  It makes the process of wagering money sound more fun and less random, which is a great way to draw more patrons into their establishments. Not painting one bad and the other good.


In summary, anyone who uses the word “gaming” around a casino is probably an industry insider. If they call it “gambling,” then they’re likely a regular individual. But either way, they’re talking about the same thing. But let me come to the part were we tell ourselves the truth. Online gaming has some atom of gambling in it, do you disagree? O yes, you can say that gambling is a not a good form of fun. That's your opinion. But let me ask you a question.



Which kind of fun or entertainment can you give yourself when there are no friends around that you won't have to pay any amount?I need an answer from you. You always have to pay for any form of entertainment that you get. A trip on vacation, a visit to a park, gaming on your PC, calling old buddies etc. You name it. You have to spend!!!! Either on data, on transport, on car fuelling etc. The underlying point here is thatvyou always have to spend to get entertainment or fun. But which type of spending on entertainment  is better than you having a chance of higher returns. I need an answer!!!


So also for you to play or access any high , top and scintillating games, you either have to buy  or pay to unlock features or pay to get more advantages which most at times is known as reward points which is used to equipped oneself for better gaming satisfaction. I have not even talked about the money spen for data connection itself.
 So what we should encourage is safe gambling. I am a safe gambler, that's why most people call me " the investor". I don't gamble, I invest. All investment have risks attached to them. One thing you need to know is that you have to choose a good casino and my top choice happens to be Vegas Casino. From an expert point of view, you just don't go out there to choose any casino you see and start gambling. You have to look out for quality, high bonuses, entertainment and high user experience. That's one tip to making profits in gaming business and not gambling.

You can define between gamers and gamblers, not everyone defines the two people have the same vision, which is satisfying the hobby they want. I guess being a gamers starts with hobbies and gambling and starts with a hobby. But the difference is that every gambler must be willing to put his money in the hobby they want, the only goal of winning is to get money to be able to gamble every time they want.

Very good point. I was thinking of the same as there are many people in here that are gambling for fun. Actually, deep inside them.. they don't. They feel that there is a possibility of making earning and this is why they try their luck in the casinos. There are many other ways if you only want to have just "fun" as you said playing other games for example.

I think that "fun" is just an excuse for losing money in gambling!

Because not all gamblers know how to use computers or what, most especially the old guys who still want to go to the casinos than to play online. there’s a big difference between playing games online and gambling because as far as I know very few online games that pay enough money to you and that is why gamblers still love to play the traditional games where they can earn more.

Op , The top few players in the world even pull in six figure salaries between sponsorships, team salaries and tournament winnings.
So, how can you follow their lead? One thing should be clear from the start,  it's a lot of hard work. These ten steps should send you on your way.

1. Practice
It might be nice that you get to play a game you love and think you're pretty good at. But do you love it enough to play it six, seven, eight hours a day, every day? 

2. Keep Your Day Job
It's always good to have a back-up plan, and I would not recommend anyone drop out of school or quit their current job until they have at least SOME indication they can make money and support themselves by gaming.

3. Studying
Like finding success in any field, it's important to study those who have excelled before you. Watching pro replays over and over until you start to absorb their own strategies and tactics is a must. 

4. Homework
Playing the game for hours is good practice yes, but sometimes you might need to work on one particular aspect of your play in order to get the edge on your opponents. Word is that the best Terran Starcraft player in the world, MarineKingPrime, practices splitting marines, a complex, click-heavy game maneuver, for hours at a time.

5. Community
Understand that almost all pro gamers are part of a community, and you should be too. Whether it's participating in forum discussions or forming your own team, it's important that you're not practicing in a vacuum. 

6. Practice with Pro
Did I mention you need to practice? The top tier pros often live together in houses where they play against each other for hours a day

7. Rage Control
Understand that you're going to lose. Even the best players on earth lose anywhere from thirty to fifty percent of their games. Losing is a part of the path to becoming a better player, and raging and trash talk does nothing to help you improve. 

8. Balance
As much as we've emphasized that hours of practice are necessary for success, you need to have balance, meaning a life outside of the game.

9. Talent
Understand that not everyone is cut out to be a pro player. Even if you're good, you just might not have the physical ability to be on par with the pros. eSports requires physical and mental prowess,

10.  Practice
In case I haven't made it clear so far. For those of you aspiring to be the next Fatal1ty or Boxer, I wish you the best. For me I was far suited for playing at online casino like VegasCasino.io. I think I stand a better odd and spend shorter time plus fast return on my bet .

Every gamblers have their own taste in gambling, if you are a gamer that want's to earn some money then you can look for a good gaming sites which you can earn cryptocurrency or even a fiat money. Some of the gamer only wants to play the game and have fun but for me, if there's a chance to earn profit through that game, then I will grab it without any hesitation.  If you also found some good gaming sites that can earn bitcoin, its good for you to share it. 

We all know that playing online games is different when you are the one that is betting and these two has different variation depending on how they do it. But as far as you could challenge yourself on every difficulty then it is your choice on how you win the fight.

You're right, although there's not much difference between skilled and unskilled playing/gambling. There are many online games overtaken by farmers, who use bots or just grind  the same mobs and quests all the time to earn some cash. WwW, Diablo, Eve, there are many such games.
Gambling is also for the unskilled if you think about dice or slots. The main difference is investment. To gamble you need money and can win more or lose the ones you have. To grind in an online game you don't need money and can only earn more or lose time.

Did he say something about earning BTC from games? I don't think so.
He is talking about online game only where you are purely playing a game where you can also interact with other players for having fun. Even if there are some games that you can play for free and you may earn btc from it, I believe the amount wont worth your time, electricity, and other things.

This is indeed a good idea of playing games and earning BTC for that. It will be good if you can share with us the games (online links) which gives bitcoins in return in case of winning. It will be helpful for lot of us here.

Of course, anyone can just play online games instead of gambling. However, people want to play games with variation. If you keep on playing the same game over and over again, you will most likely lose interest on it.

They prefer gambling versus online games as in gambling you can have that wind of luck and win a huge amount of money in a very short amount of time.

On the other hand by playing online games you have to master a few skills , be patient while building up your character , town etc and fight against other skilled players. A gambler will always like the easiest part, gambling.

A gambler would likely to win huge if he's willing to have a huge bankroll in return. Playing online games aren't only for professional gamers, there's also an industry of what's becoming popular now.

Selling popular skins, in-game items and boosting of ranks. This is becoming a new industry for gamers where mostly are making money and part time streamers too.

I don't think so because I see of my friends who play online games can get the money too. They usually sell some item to another player which need that item to upgrade their hero and because of my friends have a high-level hero, of course, he collects many items and he can help the other by selling the items.

I think it will give the other benefits for people who play online games because they can earn money too and I think they don't have to depends on their luck instead of the gambling games.

I never knew that M. Jordan was a gambler, I googled expecting some sort of crazy self-bets because he believed he would win his games, but it just turned out he just hit the casinos a lot. I guess it's just in some people's blood

But I was just going to say that it's difficult to take those examples and generalize them for gamblers. I'm sure people with big money to spend can afford to gamble because while it might be a possibility to make even more cash, losing it still won't cripple them. They still make just a small percentage of all gamblers. I asked once about skill-based games, I would still recommend stuff like that over luck-based gambling. I'm sure even Mike Jordan had more adrenaline levels on the court rather than out of it

I think the big difference between online games and gambling is the money. When they play gambling, they will earn huge money if lucky, and play the game online is very hard to make money unless they are a professional gamer. So that the primary reason that they prefer gambling to game online.
