Some say gambling is made for fun.

Some say gambling is a money doubler, that that is the only reason it was made.

Some say gambling is a business that the owners use to steal money legally from players  ;D

Some say gambling is made for those purpose.

What do you think is gambling made for?

Gambling can not only be accepted as a money doubler because it does not double my money all the time.
 
Gambling can not only be accepted as a source for fun because if you stake large or small amount of money to have fun, they will take the money and leave you upset.

Some say, If a gambler wants to have real fun from gambling, they need to only play with small amount but if this small amount is complied, it can still equal to a high amount that is not supposed to be spent without any profit in return. That is why some people regret it at last. No body is happy to lose money whether small or big.


To enjoy gambling, a gambler must combine all the purpose that gambling was made for which are to make money by luck, to enjoy the game they are playing and have fun and to accept that casino are the real winners and not the gambler.

 If you want to play gambling for fun without getting rewards, it will get bored and you will become tired and angry for losing money.

 If you want to gamble for the purpose of money doubling, you will be disappointed because the casino will let you understand that they are the real winner.

 If you want to believe that the casino is a legal business for stealing your money, then tell me any business that profit is not expected.

To enjoy gambling, you have to accept all the purpose it was made for. That was the mean reason why I asked my question and said, when did you realize the real purpose of gambling?.

Casinos have always been the winning team. You can't compete; you can't even compare. That's how the system is designed. Without looking at statistics, we all can be judged of that by just using our gambling activities, for example.
 
I have always known all of this, which is why I limit the way I gamble, and I never for one day think that I can win against the casino. Instead, I always have in mind that while I'm playing both for fun and with the hope of winning something, whatever that's won, either out of full luck from a slot or out of luck and my prediction skill from a sport, they all fall under the category of the casino giving back an unfair share to the gambler.

If you also calculate the money you spend on other forms of entertainment you might also get upset. Some people spend so much on movies, subscriptions and even video games. Yeah, losing money is painful but gambling is not just about losses. Sometimes you win when you are lucky.  

The best option will always be to gamble mainly for entertainment but this doesn't mean that you do have the intention to win. Gambling should be targeted at having fun and to also make some profit.  

Seeing gambling as a source of income or a money-doubling scheme is the reason for loss-chasing and over-gambling. These unhealthy gambling practices are the main cause of gambling disorders.  


You are speaking as if you were forced by any casino to gamble, it is a voluntary activity. If you think casinos are stealing from you, stop gambling.  

You watch TV programs, movies, read books, DIY to create. All are entertainments. All requires investment of money and time. Likewise gambling is an entertainment as long as you are a player/gambler. But if you are the provider, owning a gambling business then it's a business.  

Too much thinking lol. If you want to enjoy gambling, enjoy it. It doesn't matter even if you think that casinos are legally stealing your money, or that you're going to regret it. In the first place, if you were truly going to regret it, you wouldn't be gambling. But anyway, you can enjoy something even if you start thinking all about this kind of stuff if you really want to gamble. No need to overcomplicate it.

I myself sometimes regret it but to minimize that, I always try to limit the amount of money I spend on gambling. It's always set and depends on how much monthly income I get. It's a pretty small amount, similar to what I'd usually spend for the stuff that I want, not what I need.

Gambling is made for whatever the individual think it is for. If the player thinks it is to double their money fine. If the individual says it is a second source of income then that's what it is for them. Another player says it is gambling is made for escaping reality, to blow off steam then that is what it is for them. We are can be responsible for our own gambling and what it means for us not for others.

there are a lot of contradictory statements. You say that playing for fun can get boring because the player loses, this is doubtful. A simple example, I get together with friends several times a year and we play poker all evening or all night and we play for very small amounts so that no one would be offended by losing them or for something symbolic, and yes, among us there are those who are systematically unlucky and it's okay, since this is already a tradition that has been going on for many years, the process itself is important and not the result itself.

As long as the casino is not forcing you to use thier platform for your prediction and aren't cheating you after you've won, you have no right to say that the design of a casino is built to steal from you. For all you care, it's totally up to you to gamble or not to. You have the final decision when it comes to the amount you decide to make use of per gamble and even after losing, it's still totally up to you to continue gambling or to give it a stop after you did it the first or second time.
Some of us spend a lot of money just to go to the stadium to watch live matches while others stay back at home and buy data for subscription before watching any game.is it the designs of clubs or the platforms we watch those games on to steal from us via the subscription we do?

The purpose of gambling is for fun. I try not to be broke to the extent where I have to depend on the outcome of my gamble for my next meal or to get a certain amount. When you gamble with that kind of mentality, you've succeeded in removing yourself from the midst of those clamoring on gambling addiction because they can't control thier excesses. Gambling was not even made for anyone or designed to serve a particular purpose. It can as a natural way of having fun while adding a financial incentive to the outcome of a particular event. It's fine that overtime, it has grown to the level where you can gamble on a lot of even and engage in it at the comfort of your own and also do it wherever and whenever you fell like gambling which has a tendency of getting addictive. If you're focused on real life issues and only gamble to calm things down or during weekends like this when you're done with the weeks work and only wants to relax and just have fun, it's then you will enjoy the whole essence of gambling.

It usually takes time for someone to realize their purpose of gambling, some gamble from the beginning just for fun, but there are also those who realize after they lose a lot and start to gamble more responsibly. For me personally, at first I thought that gambling could give me a chance to double my money, but because at that time I was still too naive and then after various ups and downs I started to gamble for fun - and I think there are many gamblers like me and that is very natural because it is from experience that helps someone understand their purpose better.

There should not always be a financial reward whenever you spend your money for fun. The reward for fun is in the health benefit and relaxation that it can bring. Winning from gambling whenever you gamble for fun is just an additional benefit, and you should not make it a priority especially when your aim is to gamble for fun and not for money. If you are gambling for fun and you are always expecting to win money, you will be disappointed each time and the purpose for which you are gambling which is for fun will never be achieved because you will always find yourself depressed and sad each time you lose because you had an expectation to win money. If you are gambling for fun, gamble for fun and accept the health benefits that come with it, you do not always have to win money.

Most people on this forum that are active on the gambling board will know that gambling should be for fun. It is not a way to double money. It is not a way to make money. Anyone that have that bad thinking that gambling is a way to make money will find himself or herself losing if he or she start to gamble. It will only end up with bad experience for such gamblers. But in reality, many gamblers wants to make money from gambling, but they are losing.

Honestly, the answer to that question of what is the real purpose of gambling? I must say that the answer should solely depends on what gambling means to individuals perspective, while there are those that approach gambling just for fun others might prefer doing it to generate or as a means of making money, although too much anything can be very problematic, gambling is a voluntary action, thou it is more better to approach gambling in terms of seeing it as a fun, that has real helped me and shaped the way I was approaching before compared to now. However, anyone can figure out whatever works the best for him or her as to this regards.

maybe you are right, the game will be boring and maybe we as gamblers can leave gambling if we never get a win. but the casino knows that. you will get a win after a few frustrating losses. even when you don't make a deposit, you can get a bonus to make another bet. that's what makes gamblers always come back, to play.

indeed we must realize all of that to be wiser in gambling. so don't expect too much from our luck. can control ourselves so as not to be too over in the game.
I'm not sure when exactly I can start to become a better gambler. because I also got bad because of my gambling addiction. but now everything is getting better. but clearly, this knowledge may have to be obtained by beginners who want to start gambling.

Any business is created for the sake of making a profit, which is based on satisfying a certain human demand. In the case of gambling, the demand is entertainment in general, trying your luck in the probability of increasing your bet.

People had fun playing gambling games long before the emergence of casinos and organized gambling events themselves. Which suggests that the true goal was initially still in a pleasant pastime with a bonus in the form of earning money (or vice versa :)), and casinos turned all this into a tough business, in which the gambler is not in the most advantageous position.


 

The "money doubling" tag may not be appropriate to describe what gambling is made for but on the whole (for me) the major aim of indulging in gambling is profit. Yes, that's the aim. Sadly, most people won't admit to this. Those who say it's for fun, why do people feel that bite when they lose or you think they don't?

To the best of my perspicacity, the only way that can be fun is if there's no bet staked on it. And if there's no bet on it, then it's not gambling. It becomes just game. Gambling is business, not fun.

Whichever realization you may come up with whether you think gambling is for fun or whether it's meant to be a money-doubler or something you just do to generate easy money, you enjoy playing when you are making money and are sad when you lose your capital.

Whichever purpose gambling is for you, winning money will still be the one that can make you satisfied in gambling. I can guarantee you will not enjoy it when you lose money. Just the truth.

Gambling is made for an individual to risk his money and give hope that he could double it.
Risk.
People love risk and they will keep on coming back as long as that risk exists. Let's be real. How the hell is a lot of gambling sites being supported by many people if the competition is broad?
For me, the simplest answer is that many people are gambling but they don't really care about the risk. They want to gamble to double their money or maybe even win a 500x. Still, it's just a game that will make us end up with lots of money or nothing.

I've always loved football and betting with friends, whether for money or for rounds of beers. This was something natural and part of my daily life even before I learned about betting.

In my country, casinos are blocked, so it was always very difficult for me to create the habit of betting, since lotteries were never an attraction for me.
When online games started to gain more space and especially when they developed with the emergence of cryptocurrency payments, I saw an excellent option to link something I already liked (football) with something I hadn't been able to do until then (betting).

I confess that the opportunity to be part of a subscription campaign at Duelbits fueled my desire to bet even more, always consciously. And I play for fun, because I like football and betting. The profit, if it comes, is just a bonus.

True casino sites use very secret algorithms so that no user can know about it. this is why gambling winnings always have to be left to luck.  No one can guarantee win against any sms site. It is not possible. so I never look for a specific time to gamble. Because I never use gambling for income. It's just a fun place so I waste some money and just enjoy it. And I think everyone should do the same

For me, I was so stubborn, really stubborn, that I lost a lot of money finding ways to make profit, because there was a point where I was winning and thinking that I can come out with a system that would bring me good results,

Unfortunately, I was just assuming that I can when all techniques and tricks have failed, but it was a learning experience, something that I can tell to my friends who are into gambling that there's no use trying to find ways to make a living out of gambling when you really cannot.

Casinos had gone bankrupt too and even in crypto market there are few casinos shut down their operations for not making money so it's not like every casino is floating in the water, it's good business model but it needs huge capital and lot of time to brand their platform just like any business around the world which is to make money.

If you are a player then you should only see it from your perspective, gambling is for fun and with the wagering it's adds the spice to very ordinary things.

It didn’t take long after I started gambling before I realized that gaming was really meant for gamblers to win all the time and that casinos always have the upper hand and no matter what you do you’ll never be able to beat them and that was what made me take it has a means to have fun and since then I’ve always made deposits that I’m 100% sure that I won’t need and I can afford to lose.

For me I don’t take it as a money doubler, because even if I double the money I deposited it still won’t make it worth anything  - it is purely a means of entertainment for me and. Nothing more.

for entertainment and everything else in it is just a bonus. I am sure there will be people who will disagree with me but that is just my view. I mean, gambling should be treated as entertainment and winning money from gambling is just a bonus. it is also one of the healthier ways of gambling habits and a lot of people should really try this kind of mindset towards gambling.

Gambling is an addiction and no matter how much you accept it as normal, at some point you will realize that it has destroyed many precious moments in your life and as a result you will get nothing but some bad experiences and some precious moments that have been drained from life.  .
Gambling was heavily involved in my life as a student and now I realize that it has robbed me of precious moments in my life.  However, I have suffered financial losses in life and have also lost many opportunities for my institutional education.  My institutional results only got worse because of gambling.  Now I don't consider gambling as any part of enjoyment in my life and I don't consider gambling as a bad addiction like alcohol and cigarettes.

Gambling is really just meant for fun. People should not expect to get rich over night nor hope to double their money every time they play. If you go in thinking that you will  make a ton of cash, you aree probably going to end up being disappointed. The more you keep on playing, the higher the chance are of you to lose your money. Consider gambling as a form of paid entertainment. It is better to see any profits as a nice bonus/reward that you can enjoy for yourself or use it for further playing any games. Dont make it the main goal of gambling. That way, you can enjoy the game without putting too much pressure on yourself.

Gambling is created for desperate people who see no solution to their problems and they get even deeper in more problems by gambling. The casino owners are not thieves as they do not put a gun to your head enforcing you to play in their casinos, it is us who feel the need to try and change our lives through gambling. Personally gambling has been created as religion says to put trouble among you say the three of the major religions and maybe they are or better were right until gambling were played at that time between persons, with the sport betting and casinos online now that can be called as void as now we play against the computers most of the time while we gamble online.

You said it right, gambling was created to double, triple or multiply our money and that is the main reason people keep coming back, the massive max win multipliers are living proof of that, in slot machines I mean.

That is what gambling should be used for and nothing else, gambling can be entertaining and it is because of it that many people dream about making money with it, since what could be better than to do something that you like and that at the same time it makes you money? But this is an unrealistic dream, since only a very small number of gamblers can achieve this, and the number that achieve this through their skill alone is even lower.

Both your conclusion and the context presented to us are simply your vision and opinion, just that, in fact you ask a question based on that, that is, why do you think that this "revelation" should be had, I mean everyone sees it and enjoys it and suffers as they wish.

On the other hand, making a bet is like spending money on chocolate, you think about the calories or the chocolate...

A mistake that people often make is to consider gambling as a source of income and think that gambling can make them rich overnight. From the idea that people have all these tempting ideas, at some point in life, they realize how much they have gone through the big mistakes of life. Only those who have considered gambling as a source of entertainment from the beginning have been able to maintain complete control over gambling. But in reality the number of all gamblers is very low especially since most people consider gambling as one of the main sources of income.  Moreover, if the greedy attitude of earning extra money from gambling does not go away from people, then they will never be able to stop themselves from gambling.

In my case, I took conscience of the real purpose of gambling when I finally understood it's not possible to profit from it the more we play, neither to play it in a safe way or using consistent strategies. Until certain point, I had the illusion it could be possible to profit from gambling in a daily basis if I wasn't greedy and if I placed many small bets through a bot system, in order to not spend a long time placing bets manually. However, that is not how things work for real and in some cases like mine, you have to commit mistakes by yourself in order to learn, although the wisest ones are able to learn from someone else's mistakes.

The purpose of gambling is not direct, as it varies from one individual to another, and as such, for those who may have said gambling is for fun, money doubler or business were not wrong, as they are all totally right, as such definition can only be viewed in correspondence to the individual that is saying it at the time of saying it. Because a casino owner can say gambling is a business, and he/she is not wrong, as long as they earn and generate constant profits from it, and likewise, an average gambler can say gambling is a money doubler,, simply because they uses it to double their income, and so does it goes to rich gamblers who might say they gambler for fun.

Hence, in conclusion, the definition one give about gambling will always varies from who is saying it (i.e either casino owner, average gambler or the rich)

The first thing anyone who is set out to gamble is that, it the aim of gambling because is from knowing what you are gambling for that you know how best to position yourself as a gambler, because that is very important, take for example, when you are gambling for fun, you start enjoying the fun part of it the moment you start gambling, and for that also you have to point to a number of factors that influence your gambling decisions.

I am sure that, as we have gamblers who are set out to gamble to have fun, others will be there that their aim to gamble is to make some profits, and if that your own aim, the moment you win, big then you have realise the purpose of your gambling activities, because at that point, you are gambling for the money and not fun.

I also think the same way, that gambling is for entertainment. But like other entertainments, monies being staked for gambling becomes rewards. Although I don't want to treat gambling as other entertainment because over time people have turned the fun to a money making avenue. This money making habit of gambling have made it more fascinating rather than just being a game or sports. It has increased the addiction attachment on gambling and how people can get hurt in the name of gambling either physically or psychologically.

There is a redefinition of concepts in the collective consciousness and efforts to reclassify, because despite the excitement that gambling provides, the destructive consequences that may cause term benefits. We must realize that gambling is not just a game of chance, but a behavior that can destroy the lives of individuals and societies.
While gambling may be a form of entertainment for some, it poses significant risks to mental health, finances, and relationships. We should be cautious about this practice and look for other forms of entertainment that do not carry such risks.

I am a supporter of the proposal to reclassify at the level of the definition of the concept. The issue may be similar to smoking or alcohol as harmful products, but it seems that this is the only thing that gives it validity.

I agree with what you said, indeed the purpose of gambling is very right to say for entertainment but unfortunately this becomes serious for many people especially those who have financial problems where they think that they can get quick profits from the gambling they do. This actually leads them to problems only, and if it is said that more players who really play just for entertainment is relatively small, because I think many of them misunderstand gambling.
You are right, we should be able to gamble healthily such as by doing it naturally, with defeats that will occur more often that is what we need to be aware of, don't let us have the idea that we can win for sure that is an initial mistake that will make things worse in the future.

Every smart person would know that casinos were not meant to favour the gamblers, it doesn't matter what game you play or bet on they control everything. It doesn't matter who wins either, they are always in profit no matter what, this should be a reason why you shouldn't even go near casino games. If you have a thousand users on casinos in a day only about of hundred can be in profit the remaining 900 users would either lose their capital or their profits, it's definitely not a winning game

The moment you made your first deposit, and then play on online casinos, or going to your first brick and mortar, for sure you will know the purpose of gambling. Be it for fun and entertainment in your send, or if you really wanted to earn and make some profit. For me it's not like gamblers are going to evolved and be mature in gambling. Yeah, you can gain and become a thinking gambler, meaning, you know when to quit and comeback the next day.

Or you can simply be addicted to it, and then just snap out of it and stop or really dig a hole that you can't get out. So there is no right or wrong here, so it's really up to you on how you are going to look at gambling and how it will influence you for the rest of your lives.

There is a difference between what gambling was made for and how a gambler should take gambling because these are two different things.

Gambling, as a business, was made to make a profit, of course. The business model is specifically designed to make money for the house which is the casino and you will barely see a casino going bankrupt because of its players winning a lot of money, I know it happens but not very often because their business model is made this way.

Now, if you ask how a gambler should perceive gambling, then I would surely say that a person should know and accept the reality as you said. We know that we can't beat the house, then why even try? If we keep trying, we will only lose more money. So accepting the reality, we should only spend a affordable amount of money on our gambling activities to either try our luck or to have some fun. And, I always knew the purpose and has been a responsible gambling throughout my gambling career, thankfully.

Alot of folks at there have their purpose, some are literally  gambling inorder to double their hard earn money while some are for the fun. You can easily differentiate both , those that are in for the money alone (because some can be doing it for fun and to earn some extra bucks).Those that literally gambling for the money alone , normally gamble irresponsibly leading them to be gambling with funds they can`t afford to lose .

While those that gambling for fun can use any a amount they can , they can afford to lose without much stress . Because they are just there to have fun and takes any extra bucks they win, as bonus to them trying to have fun.

Its not bad on thinking or mindful about on where you would really be depositing  your money or the platform on where you do play up on which it will really be that relevant or something that will really be a normal thing that you would be needing up to consider on the time that you do tend to search up on playing up on a certain site on which it will really be that a normal act to be done by someone.
It is really just that there would really be those times or moments that we are already that pressuring too much ourselves or overexerting on doing things on which it does really take out that kind of
enjoyment and thrill just because you are thinking lots of things in regarding into this manner. It will really be that recommended that you should be focusing on the real essence on why you do gamble in the first place. It is really that recommended at least that you should be sticking into those known platforms to avoid such problems.

Well, it's business and the sole purpose of every business is to make Profit, these bookmakers are profiting from gamblers on a daily basis, imagine if people a lot of people decided to quit gambling totally a lot of bet companies would fold up but that's just a thought. As a gambler you must realize that the market wasn't made to make you a millionaire, don't get moved by other People's stories of how they won millions with less than a dollar turn you to an addiict... The house always wins, that should always be a constant reminder to you

Right from the start, I understood that gambling is supposed to be fun. But after a couple of wins that fell into my lap, my perception of gambling started changing. It started looking like an easy area to double one's money. It was rather tempting, feeling like more wins could roll in, and the initial perspective of fun being a top priority left a little bit.

But after a couple of losses, it finally dawned on me. Gambling is not an easy way to make money—in other words, the house always wins. It was hard to retrain my mind into thinking that gambling was purely for entertainment value again, but at the same time, those were the moments that reinforced the actual reason why one gambles.

 And as time went by, It dawned on me that the pleasure in gambling is wagering, not winning. It is important that one gambles with the idea of knowing very well that each stake could come with results unforeseen and most essentially keep discipline as well as the original view that this is simply a pass time, and not a money-making avenue.

The only time that I saw gambling as something that was simple to do and earn living from was when I first started gambling. That time I didn't have any good knowledge about gambling, I just thought that it's something you can do and be lucky all the time, I didn't know it was opposite of what I thought but my happiness was that I quickly realized that gambling is not like a usual investment where you can just expect to make money all the time. I was quick to realize that gambling is not a source of income but if you are lucky to win, you should be happy.

I realized that after a long time of experience in gambling maybe 4 years more, and that was after the many wins and losses that I had gone through, because previously we seemed to think that gambling was a place to multiply money quickly, because it made us interested in gambling until we got addicted to it which brought foolishness in money management because I once considered it a place to make money, which in fact gambling is only a place to get entertainment and fun, although a little still has the hope of winning and getting some money but it's not as blind as the past that fully views gambling as a place to double money, maybe I realized it too late but the fact of gambling should be made as a place for entertainment only.

Gambling should be made for fun where only a limited amount of money that you will have to bet and not for a chance to earn more money which the chance of it happening is not high. Casinos are not made for fun to start with and it is because of many people who thought that casinos are made for fun which is not at all. Casinos or any kind of gambling platform are a business to earn money from their players (gamblers) and that's the reason why it is created in the first place. I already realized the purpose of gambling when I understand that chances of winning more money by gambling is not 100%  profitable.

I will say people that gamble for fun are just little, most gamblers have other motives for gambling, most of them gamble just because they want to make money from gambling.

Most people that gamble for the sake of money are the ones which sometimes they will just want to double their money and leave when gambling, but honestly most of them do end up failing. When you want to multiply your money when gambling, things don’t always go well.

I don’t believe this, gambling site is a business, and no one is forcing anyone to gamble, so anyone gambling is doing it willingly, I don’t see anything like legal way of stealing money from players, as long as if players win, they are always paid.

First of all, before attempting to enroll or engage into something,one is supposed to be aware of the essential scenarios and experience that are attached to it.
In as much as gambling is not so good and advicable for everyone to gamble,I came to realize and understand that life gets better and easier when you gamble from afar and not closely.Initially,the pleasures that comes with gambling can be very easy to adapt to but hard to refrain from.

Gambling has failed a lot of people even as much as it has been favourable for some people.Gamble but be rest assured that you're definitely on track.All I'm saying is that so long as you don't make gambling your number one life goal and main source for survival you will be free from living without many pressures and constant financial insecurity and mess.

Everyone experiences a journey with gambling, just like living life. gambling, or a game, has existed from ancient times until now, evolving and innovating. various people treat gambling in the way and style they think and want. so do we, have long experience with gambling. whether it's losing, winning, depressed, angry, upset or happy because we get the jackpot. then, what is our real purpose in gambling? this question will certainly have various responses and everyone has a different perspective. I also believe that some who like gambling will change their mindset regarding gambling itself. for example, starting out thinking of a quick way to get money, then trying to become a professional and developing an understanding that gambling is only a medium of entertainment. losing and winning is a common thing, if you don't want to be involved with the risk, just avoid gambling. I personally have my own perspective on gambling, as well as the definition of gambling for me personally. what is certain, we will experience phase by phase, moment by moment, until we have our own version of gambling understanding.

Gambling is designed to ease stress and anger. If you are stressful you can decide to go gamble and and the point of gambling you can stake any amount that is not worth thinking about the lost or risk associated to it. Many people has defeated the purpose of gambling to money doubling, and of course people always wants to utilize the opportunity from gambling to money doubling and those who took it for money doubling always ends up with regret because when their real purpose of gambling isn't coming forth they find it so disappointing gambling.

But those who gambles with the intense to ease stress or kill off their pains then you would see them gambling without any attachments of earning money, though even though people has seen it to be away of fast profits and money doubling it wouldn't come that fast that is why people regret putting specific amount to gambling because they aren't viewing it from the perspectives where the general public is viewing it from.

As a gambler who's also heard from so many other gamblers give their own opinion about gambling, I think different gamblers have different definitions of gambling which is why gamblers do not have a particular game approach to the game of gambling. My definition about gambling came in different stages because of my experience in the game of gambling grew from stage to stage. For instance, when I started gambling, I got a lot of winnings which I used the proceeds to offset important bills and that made me then to think that gambling is good means of making ends meet but when I became addicted and started losing money in gambling to the extent that I was totally bankrupt, I had a different view of gambling. Now that I gamble responsibly, I now have a new definition about gambling because currently, I see gambling a recreational activity that should be done with one's spare money.
Just like me, I think there are other gamblers whose definition of purpose of gambling changed with the results they got from the game

The purpose of gambling? Depends on who you ask. The church for instance will tell you that it's a plot to defraud you of all your possessions in the fastest way possible and make you miserable.

In the grand scheme of things there certainly are better occupations for an individual to partake than just gambling.

But also on an individual level, it doesn't look very conspiratorial to play in a casino. Nobody is forcing your hand, of course gambling is very ancient but recently has been very commercialized and widely promoted. So more and more people play. I'd say for the individual gambler, the best reason to play is just fun. Other motivations can indeed be problematic.

From my first day in gambling I soon realized that it was not the right place to make money, because I was constantly losing and every time I sat down to do math I came to the conclusion that I was losing more than I was winning and that I should always have in my head that I should play for fun and not for the purpose of making a profit. And today I feel happy because I only play for fun. Of course I always fight to win, but I know that at the end of the day the bookmakers always win. Something I've learned in all the time I've been in the gambling world is that gambling is not for people to play when they have problems in the real world. It's for people to play when they're happy in the real world.
