Few years ago or mayb one i cant realy remember it was possible to do both of them , playing an online game and earn on them !
I played it a lot of times and got some coins with it too. Guess it was Digibyte (DGB) that has done implemented earnings when you playing Counterstrike !
It was realy funny and nice so it was possible you can play your favorite game and at the same time you got rewarded for if won some Matches.
And also i guess there was a few more Games on the Site where it was possible to get some rewards of DGB when you played them .
But i cant remember what for other games it was , Counterstrike was one . Sadly that they got some issues with that and they deactivate it at some Stage.
Dont know if that is possible anymore or something.

Yes, it is still possible, and, in fact, the industry is growing. Just one example, Kuro Takhasomi, 27 years old, earned more than $4 million playing Dota 2. Also there are kids under 20 earning hundreds of thousands USD through their skills in video gaming. Google about eSports to read about this growing industry with over $1 billion yearly revenues. Also maybe check out the page from the link below

https://www.esportsearnings.com/

to see how much some individuals earn playing games like Dota 2, Fortnite, Counter-Strike and others.

But, answering the OP's question, I want to say that there are different kinds of people. I, for one, don't like playing video games at all, but enjoy playing poker, dice and some other games like minesweeper, plinko etc. Asking people like me, "Why don't you play video games instead of gambling?" is the same as asking people playing football, why don't they play tennis?

I do not change your post deserve merit anyway more than 5 billion people in the world addicted to gambling and some of them are even going to hospitals for taking medicines. Gambling is not bad just the addiction to it is bad. There is a thing called impulsiveness and when you gamble you have Rapid feeling about playing it again but if you play it just like you play video games you will not be addicted to gambling. That means do not play it as an income source and just enjoy it I want to lose some money just go to a Casino and enjoy the games and do not expect to win.

Many but not all gamblers are claiming they gamble for fun and pass time. I was just thinking. If it is the reason why people gamble then why not play online games? There is a lot of good and challenging onlne games wherein you can interact with other people online?

if you are players of both, you can tell the big difference, gamblers for excitement on winning an extra cash and beating the system, they want to be the lucky guy that day something any online game cannot offer, on online games so much depends on your skill and you know what's going to happen under such circumstances, you even have a control on the situation.

Even if you play online games and are very good at them, they will never give you any benefit. While the gambling games give you money on each win and therefore it is more exciting to play gambling games.

Its because those people are not the same interest or want when it comes to games, others like to play online games, while others like to play in gambling because they can earn $ in gambling if they won while when it comes to online games more online games you can't win or earn $ on it. Thats why others said the thrill of playing online game is not the same as the thrill on gambling.

There's a big difference on both, it's not about interacting with other people only, there's more than that, the feeling and the excitement of every roll that you did not know if you are going to win or lose, people like to tempt their luck and gambling is the best place to see that.

Because gambling is too far different from online gaming,in gambling we don’t need skills(though sometimes it helps)what we need is luck and what’s can get is MONEY in which very important tools to play also.so in that case I think it’s reasonable to gamble when you want to enjoy and also chance to win right?

While in Online gaming we are only to be entertained and to practice our skills and talent to win each game(but of course some of them now are being used as gambling tools also when they are betting for whom to win the game..and some gives stakes for each players to become a champion so they are basically not the same,but also have some similarities nowadays

everyone has their own habits or hobbies to get pleasure, for some people playing online gambling is one of the entertainment to get pleasure. in contrast to people who like gambling, of course, some of them play gambling certainly expect to get money from him, although there are also those who make gambling as a means of getting entertainment but when viewed the presentation is clearly much different between people who only seek entertainment with people who gamble for get money from him

There is a lot of difference between online games and gambling games. The variety of online games is much more than gambling games but you will not get any real money on winning the online games. However, on the other hand, gambling games are limited and you can lose or earn real money through them.

Getting into online games were the base to gambling in most cases. When someone is spending time on online games automatically he'll get notified and ads related to gambling. This initiates him to give a try which is more than enough to continue long into gambling. Here majority of the new entries will experience winning which gives positive hope and keeps them into gambling. Some used to understand in between while majority without knowing keep in spending without limits.

Nah I'd say the most fun is where you care about the game, sure money is an easy path to that but there also good games out there where you can build up value in a character. Theres also a sport like competitive value to some online games where people take alot of worth from winning that game, hence you have a stake in the game without it being money exactly. That can all add up to alot of entertainment without money being involved

I really do not have no idea what you are talking about, i am wearing a stake signature but i am not playing around that much in that site as some of the games confuses me as i am not good with games online Wink

, what i am trying to tell is that i might not be an expert in some of the games you are talking about but shedding some light into what these games you are talking about with spending money, i would like to explore those options too during my free period.

Online games is one of my choices to enjoy my free time and to relax,
But there are times when I really like to gamble because of the thrill it gives me,
I really feel the thrill when money is involve in the game.

Online games gives only fun, but no risk you can enjoy so much while you play, while in gambling its so risk because of money that you want to win and there is a chances that you earn instantly a money.

It's because the concept of earning while playing at home is just so hard to resist. Who wouldn't want to earn while at the same time enjoying playing games while you are laid back at home? Playing online is indeed fun as a past time, but that will cost you more data as you play which can also cause you a good sum of money. If you're losing it while playing, why not earn it at the same time and have fun? You're like hitting two birds in one stone. With online betting site, you can earn more than what you lose or vice versa. It depends on your luck and how well you play your cards while on the game. The thrill is also different in a online betting site. In an online gaming sites, it can only be fun at first and you can be bored at the middle due to its repetitive cycle. While in online betting site, the rules and process can be repetitive but the outcome doesn't always come in your favor. It can have a good or bad outcomes. That's what playing is about. It's about winning and losing and for me that's what makes online betting site more appealing. This online betting site just gave me the thrills I am looking for and at the same time earning bitcoins whenever I win. They uses bitcoin as their only currency and supports instant payouts. They also offers good amount of bonuses that gave me the upper hand while playing. The visual and the art of this game is so good that it is also one of the main points why this site attracts players. I won't exchange this online betting site for any gaming sites out there.

Indeed because it was just like hitting two birds in one stone in a sense that we gamblers are conveniently playing at home while having that chance and opportunity to earn money or profit from this if you were that lucky enough to win the game. I also do agree that playing gambling is a lot more intensfying and challenging to play rather than those online games that just have adaptive graphics, goals and set ups to play so I really choose playing gambling as a new game to play since its been too plain or boring playing the same games all over again and I do really admit gambling games are challenging. I am also into the same crypto casino you were talking about which is Vegas casino and I admit it is really fun to play the variety of games they have like poker, slots, black jack and more plus their great deals of bonuses for doing my deposits in terms of Bitcoin which makes it more reasonable for me to play gambling games that online video games because of the convenience as well as the possibility of winning Bitcoin through it.

Do both if you like, I noticed the rocket run site basically is incorporating games into gambling. I'm sure a few sites do this now to open up the audience from just the traditional casino games

because, the fun part is to win money, or to risk money, if we play any game for XP or for the game points isn't fun at all because those points doesn't have a real value, so the gambler feels like he is getting to nowhere with those points. But gambling make us feel the rush on each win and lose.

I believed many people derive satisfaction by gambling rather than online game for instance in sport bettings we have pundits that can analyze games for gamblers and makes huge profits based on the number of odds.
Gambling is also a straight forward game not really complex to play unlike some online games that is completely complex for some players in gambling some players had made some fortunes by rolling of dice and methods of gambling.

Playing online games can be fun i will admit but I would much rather play games where I can win some money.
If i want to pas the time I would just like to play a low stakes poker game so i can have a chance to make money for my time playing
Online gaming is become such a popular thing and so is esports where now kids can play for money.

Is gambling profitable for you? I think it's not because your earning from gambling but because you can feel what it is like to win a big prize, even though you know it's just for a while and you will lose it all at the end. Honestly, this is what I really feel in my gambling experience Grin

Many people are engage also in games because it is cool for them and there are also people who wants gambling. In my own perspective, it is upon to the person who will decide his fun or pass time. You can play online or outdoor games and you can gamble your money. As long as you are fun then you can do whatever you want. And also, as long as you did not deprive any person's life, dignity and property, do whatever it takes.
