I often come across the phrase among users that they play for fun. But here it has also been mentioned many times that since most players in both gambling and betting lose, it is strange to say that losing can bring pleasure and entertainment. Indeed, what benefit do you get from losing? Of course, you can say that you can get adrenaline from losing, as well as experience. But let's think about whether each new loss really brings you an increase in experience? At some point, you will understand that your next loss is just a loss, it did not bring you any new experience. And instead of adrenaline, you will feel the desire to win back, which can lead you to new losses.
Based on this, isn't it easier for the Leavs to play free games? Losing in such games will not bring you trouble, and winning can make you happy.

You can't really compare the experience of playing real money, to win or not, against free games. In free games, you can have the money that you can desire, but in the end it is just free money after all and so you will just go to the motions of just playing that's it.

As compare to playing with real money, whether it's fun or entertainment, the first spin or the last spin of the reel will give you that adrenaline, and so it will really make you happy knowing that you give that try and the experience with real money and not those games that are free.

There is an easy answer for that - winning in free games brings no joy, has zero fun, give minimum emotions. While some play video games (I guess we talk about gambling online with game money = free games) for fun and joy, sometimes get those games for free, it isnt the same. I guess free game does not make our inner ego happy, dont give us feeling that we have really achieved something, conquered.

Most people do not want to lose while gambling. You can see some people that will just play game and it is entertaining to them. Also you will see some people that will use small amount of money that gambling will be entertaining to them. What that is not good is to be using high amount of money to gamble or bet. Some people just like it when they use money to bet but which should not exceed what they are capable of losing.

I understand what you mean because in free games if you lose there's nothing to worry about since you didn't stake with your own money. Someone that loves gambling will not be able to gamble whenever he likes because it is not often that casinos offer free games but once in a while.

This is why free games cannot prevent you from losses since you need to gamble even when you don't have free games and one thing that you should know is that, as long as it's gambling losses are inevitable. One should only gamble with the amount of money that you can afford to lose and have self control over your gambling activities because that is the only way to reduce your losses.

Free games are simply video games, nothing more. Once there is no money involved, the whole notion of gambling is gone. Those who play for fun still have to enjoy the game while losing funds, but it's completely rare for most people to accept the possibility of losing and smiling. Moreover, the fun players do not feel sad for losing, because they do not think of gambling as a place to multiply money.

Why don't you play free games? No, it would be different while you playing games for free there is no adrenaline in it I believe like that. When people do gamble for fun meaning that he play just pure for fun and adrenaline-fueled the body. So if you win that gonna be profit for you but while you lose you just didn't really regret it.

Or maybe some people just want to see people or trying to chat with the dealer or other player if the game is offline.

See here's the thing, people assume that the result is the end all be all of it. Nope! The entire process of risking money, being nervous about it, and either winning or losing is what most people have fun with, including me. Now you can say free games also have this entire process, but it doesn't have that so called "risk", which adds more to it. You can simplify it as adrenaline, or you can say that the money just adds more to it, whatever it is it's pretty obvious that money adds more fun to the process compared to without it. This doesn't mean that my goal is winning though ofc not. It's just that there's more fun in it if I win, but that doesn't mean there's no fun even if I lose.

How people get to experience fun gambling especially when they are loosing is sometimes a mystery I'm yet to unravel (lol) because I have a strong feeling that deep down these people ain't having any complete fun, it's just some kind of ways to make them feel good about loosing so they don't cry I've their losses for just too long and then it feels like they actually lost the game meanwhile they intended having fun, fun always comes mostly when you are winning and seeing your wallet increasing in value except you want wanted some adrenaline rush after the reality of your lost funds will still dawn on you, so its no way a win some thing and so actual fun can not be gotten of such.if you really want fun then play free video games and get excited and have a whole lot of fun.

No benefit in losing, but there may be those who don't care much if they wasted some money for pleasure.

I think it's the risk factor that makes a gambler be urged to do the live games and not the demo ones or the free games. Without risk, it's just a game which isn't that much of a fun.
For those who play but don't want to lose their money then that's the right option for them. If I were that, I'd rather play online games or MMORPGs than slots in demos. It's a repetitive game so it's not fun at all.
The adrenaline of losing and then wanting revenge could be addictive which is why a gambler will just pick the game with a bit of a gamble.

There's going to be a weird and void feeling from betting with real money to playing free games, this is not going to satisfy the gambler, In the first place, gamblers first play for the thrills and the challenge profit is secondary
Some gamblers will tell you that they are playing for fun, but actually, even if they already made money, they will still continue because they have not yet reached the height of excitement that they want in gambling.

Its like insulting themselves just because they do not want to lose money and get into trouble; they will opt for free games, I have not encountered a gambler who shifts from betting real money to free games; either you continue betting or stop betting, these two are the only options.

There is no one who gamble merely for fun, the phrase gambling for fun (at least for me) is when we do gamble without any worries of losing money or in other words losing money will not affect ourselves emotionally and financially.
So it does not mean that gambling for fun is about losing will also give us some fun, losing is still losing and it will not give anyone entertainment or fun.
For me the fun is not on the losing but more in the process of playing the game, losing and winning are something usual and if we have the mindset "gambling for fun", it wont affect us negatively.
Why not free games? No, we cant compare gambling (which is something where we take a risk) to a free games where there is no risk of losing money at all or no chance to win money.

I have used free games once and three times, unfortunately it seems they are really not serious about providing free bets, I've done it on several crypto casino sites that operate here, maybe I don't want to blame them, because they have things to regulate about these free games.

In my opinion, free games are only to attract new users so that they really try to play there with deposit requirements and so on. For me, playing for real is more promising for me, rather than free, I'm the most lazy with the money I get $10 with lots of conditions, it would make me a little annoying to put hope on a free game, let me bet $1 but it's real for me.

This is even easier now as people uses to play fun mode or demo mode in most slots or they kept their sport bets in an excel document to collect data and see how they were doing, this of course is not any fun at all. The problem is solved now that a lot of websites are offering poker freerolls and you enter them free with a chance to win real money. This can also help a bit to alleviate the gambling addiction. That is what I would do in order to remove myself from playing real money and hitting huge consecutive streak of lost sessions.

I know that there's no body that enjoys losing money, even if anyone is gambling for fun and not profit, there's a continues level of losses they will experience and they can just get upset and stop gambling at that moment, that's because their no happiness in losses.

If we should consider those that feels happy while losing as the real gamblers that are only gambling for fun, then I doubt if there's any gambler that is actually gambling for fun, the reason is because whether one is gambling for fun or for profit, no body derived joy from losing.

I totally agree that playing free games is no different from a kid that is playing video games, there's nothing at stake whether you win or lose. The essence of gambling for me is the thrill that you get from staking your money to gamble on something that you don't know exactly what the outcome will be. You can hardly succeed when you remain in your comfort zone so there's a need to take risks. Gambling can be a place to challenge your risk capacity, although the outcomes are mostly based on luck but it allows you to take a chance. The thrill that you get when when taking chances to win is the fun for me, that is why it's advisable to gamble with the amount that you can afford to loose.

The potential skill some gamblers are using to win in their gambling today , they got it from their free games they used to play some years ago because they know that money is not involve but it make them to believe that the kind result they will get in this free games, it may be the exactly the result they will get when they play with money. I guess majority of gamblers in this forum gathered the boldness from free games to enter the games that involved money because they have seen the reason not to lose in that game when they play with money than to settle down to bet the ones that will bring favourable results at the end.

It may not easy for you to play Free games OP, but there are some gamblers that use to go back to free games when their losses is getting too much to learn to have more experience to return to winning because there are some things you will learn from all those free games and it will boost the spirit of winning.

I'm sure you yourself can distinguish the feeling of gambling with real money and not, with me myself feeling when I gamble for free without any real money at stake no matter how much the bet and the winnings obtained do not give me the slightest satisfaction, different from gambling that is done with real money where there is a sense of tension that is felt, even using a small bet amount it feels different.
However, with real money that tends to result in us losing is a natural thing, this is what triggers our own adrenaline. In addition, free games that end in defeat are nothing to worry about, some people may be happy with this but I myself don't seem to. Also if there is no money at stake I don't think it is gambling, maybe just a game nothing more than that.

In the first place how do people even deal with things that were given for free? Frankly speaking, some intense seriousness will be lacking. Same way it could be applied to gambling or betting without money on any game, the money brings about a real tussle between the two parties (casino : gambler). It's that seriousness that creates the fun (reactions) while waiting for the outcome of the game.

Because it's said that people do gamble for fun doesn't mean they won't have to give value to their money they use in gambling by feeling some displeasure when they lose it. Even with free games, the agony of being a loser can also make you feel bad. Where I think the fun could be lacking is when you using money not you not supposed to use to gamble or bet.  

While it's not desirable to lose at most bets that I do, there are learnings from the losses that I make. But, I don't want to lose forever and that's why there's the essence of having a win even if that's just only one out of the many losses that I have made within the day. This depends on how we take losses. Sometimes, it is emotional when you're invested to the actual game and not with your bet and sometimes, it's the opposite.

There's no fun in doing free games and when there's no money involve, it's just like you're playing games that you used to do online. But the real thrill is with the real money being placed on the bets on these games. And that's why even there are a lot of free games that a gambler can enjoy, there's no fun in it.

Your review this time will only show that gamblers are still looking for money in their bets. there is no reason for genuine joy in gambling games. the reality is that we have to admit that most gamblers return to betting with the hope of luck to make money, not just having fun with paid games provided by the casino.
Why don't we play free games, gamblers can have fun with free games. but can't make real money. when you succeed with free games, then a feeling will arise, if only this victory was a real casino game. Of course, we are already rich.

Well, you are basically right, and I completely agree with you, several times I've said it through my various comments on this board that the actual fun in gambling is winning, and aside that, it's really hard to say or for one to claim he or she is having fun while losing money.

If we are to face the real fact, I personally have come to this conclusion a long time ago, that 99 percent of gambler who claim to be gambling for fun and really don't care if they win or lose, are simply lying to themselves, this they can say to simply make themselves happy by accepting their gambling loses as a normal thing, but then and in reality, they really wish they can win every of their games since that can give them more money and happiness.

Indeed it all made us happy, but somehow those players who wanted to gain profit beyond from having fun couldn't be satisfied by just playing only with free games. Most people who's my friend or even relatives used to be out of control and begun to waste their money on real life gambling games instead of playing for entertainment. In that case, I believed losing with different games will really put our finances in trouble when you engaged with games that needs an investment bets

It’s just like saying since trading is very risky and dangerous, why not just use a demo account. Using a demo account isn’t such a bad thing, in fact it’s a way to prepare you for the real experience, and no matter how realistic you try to make your trading sessions look, it’s not just real. It’s equally the same with playing free games and playing with real money, though you may be gambling for fun, but the joy of your winning and being rewarded for your efforts is also something else. Just because the financial benefit isn’t your priority doesn’t mean you don’t need it. When you gamble with money you can afford to lose and know very well how to manage the risks involved, it really doesn’t matter whether you win or you lose. When you lose, you won’t really feel the impact of the loss and when you win, it’s like a motivator for you to keep gambling safe.

Before I usually play these free games, that’s when I was still making significant experience with gambling. But later on I realized I don’t get real excitement and joy, and there’s no feeling of motivation to play more, simply because there is no real money and real games involved. That’s when I started seeing these free games as quite a waste of time.

I don’t gamble just for fun, but most likely to grow my money and it will only happen once I start taking the risk gambling with real games and with real funds involved.

If it was easy to make money off gambling with money, I believe we all who are gamblers will be super rich, and possibly majority of the gambling casinos we have today would have gone bankrupt a long time ago, and there wouldn't really be anyone willing to start a gambling casino because it would literally mean them wanting to dash out their hard earned money to gamblers.

Gambling is designed to favor the casino, which actually is a business, and we all know that every businesses operate for profit and not loss, because it's through the profit they make that they would be able to keep the business running, this is what every gambler should always have at the back of their minds as they gamble and look forward to that big win, it's not as easy as most gamblers often assume or think.

I don't think I can fool myself playing free games just to get out from the hassle of losing money and getting frustrated. Yes,  betting real money made you lose money, but there's no challenge in free games.

If you want to play safe in gambling, then play only with money that you can afford to lose instead of doing free games, free games are for practice, so you can play with real money later where the excitement and the challenges are there.

I'm not happy when I play free games, instead it's wasting my time. Except I can withdraw the money if I can fulfill the requirement or reach certain amount of money, then playing in free games will not be wasting time.

I don't see anything wrong with people who claim gambling is for fun, it's definitely for fun. If you not fun while gambling, it's either you make a mistake in money management or gambling isn't for you.

Yes of course the most enjoyable thing in gambling is when we succeed in getting the amount of victory and of course it is much more exciting than you lose, but defeat does not mean making you happy, I do not feel too happy when I lose, but by having an approach full of caution and limitations then defeat is not a problem for me, or what is meant is defeat does not make me too happy but also does not make me feel frustrated.

Basically, however, gambling is a game of money, opportunity and risk, besides you can get money but you are also very likely to lose money, so that means this is a choice that depends on yourself regarding whether you are ready or not to accept the risk of defeat, and if not then I will also suggest something like what you suggested OP that playing on a demo account is much safer if someone does not want to lose money at all.

Every gambler has a different view of the gambling game they want to run, yes, there are those who like to play free bets just trying their luck because they can be said to be novice gamblers who are just learning about the gambling circle and usually such gamblers are still looking for safety by not using real money because they are afraid of losing money.
However, there are also gamblers who are not interested in this type of free game because they feel that they have no challenges in terms of courage and skill so they prefer to play the real thing because it is very interesting for them.
Now from here we can draw conclusions which one fits our criteria. ;D

I prefer to gamble for fun as I play games just for fun. Just that I enjoy it more when I use small amount of money to gamble.

I will like if you are truthful about this. Are you making money while gambling? Is it casinos games or you are betting with matches? I make money from sport bet but I do not bet frequently. The money I made are small because I bet with small amount of money. I do not really gamble but I make money than lose because I may not play more than 3 rounds in a month but I know if I gamble more I will surely lose

The entire experience might have given someone entertainment, but it is hard to believe that someone would willingly lose for fun. Even if nothing was on the line, we still want to win.
I don't know how people can get an adrenaline rush from losing. Losing usually is draining especially if you just lost some money. You will probably feel defeated and hopeless. I agree that you can use this losing experience as a learning curve but at some point if you keep on losing you might as well consider taking a step back and just play free games for a little while.

If you want to playing gambling just for fill your free time, you will not think about wins or lose because your reason just playing gambling. You don't have target anything in gambling because you don't have much time to continue gambling all day long so you just gambling moderately. You will accept the lose in gambling because you know that is the risks of playing gambling so you play without heart feeling if you lose your money. Indeed, when you lose, you will feel desperate and want to continue gambling while recovering your losses. But because you only want to use your free time to gambling, you will not try to playing gambling longer because you must do other things that more important than just gambling. I playing free slot games using demo mode for some time especially if I don't want to see the losses and that is okay for me. I can use a big bet using that demo money and nothing to lose for me.

Then we can say that you have achieved perfection in your gambling skills, or more precisely betting. And that is right, that is what we should all strive for. After all, even when we doubt, we should not allow our actions to change our past decisions.
And I want to say that it is impossible to force ourselves not to feel, because we are people and not robots, and to doubt, to be angry or afraid is absolutely normal. That is life and we are all ordinary people.

I think I'm the only one who sometimes plays demo games. Most of my gambling is on sports betting. Games like slots I only play a few times a week. Maybe sometimes I don't do it at all in a week. Very rare.
Free games can be a solution for gamblers who are not really motivated to get money from the game. Those who have played and bet in gambling games will certainly not be interested in free games. Of course, it will be less interesting for gamblers because there will be nothing at stake to win. It might be fun, but of course gamblers will not get the emotions or sensations that come from playing for gambling.

I do play them, both demo slots in casino, easy games in my phone to relax for sleeping, and computer / playstation games for excitement, without any prices involved. When money is involved in casino games just brings extra level to that fun. But it's about fun combined to small dosages of adrenaline, so it relaxes me in different way. It doesn't help me sleep.

One of the reasons i enjoy free games, is because i can play those even if i am tired, hungry or intoxicated. That's not the case with real money. If i've learned something from gambling, is when i am making more impulsive decisions. And when it's easier to break my own rules. I don't go to casino sites when i am hungry or tired or otherwise in altered mental state.

Free games don't trigger any impulsive behavior in me, except maybe with them i can raise my stakes and keep on chasing those losses. Only downside in them is that i might end up spending too much time on them.

But only with real money i need to deal with real consequences.

Of course there's millions of free games scattered all over the internet and offline for everyone to play but one thing about free games is when you lose, you'll not lose any fortune and when you win you're also not winning any fortune. But if what you mean in your question is about providing gamblers with games they'll not have to spend any dime in playing but will get financial rewards when they win, I don't think there's anything like that and if there's, it'll be limited to customers who also have a record of using their fortunes to stake bets. Gambling is fun to those who understands the rules of gambling and regulates their activities in the game but that doesn't mean that for it to be fun, gambling companies will provide you with platforms where you'll gamble without any fortune but expect financial rewards when you win.

Even though it's just another loss, it doesn't mean it gives the experience and it's like saying I felt happy once so what's the point of being happy again cause the same kind of chemical reaction happens in the brain whenever we do things that we crave for.

But when you reached a point the loss is not just a loss but is becoming debt then it's time to wrap up your experience and focus on the real world, it's just a temporary escapism but you can't consider it as something that you wants to do all the time and everyone has different risk appetite so every individual has to know their limits.

BTW, I do enjoy playing games.

If someone suggest me to play free games, I'd choose to play video games instead since it's more fun.

Free games in casinos aren't really exciting if you play without money, there are no sensation and adrenaline you get. Gambling games are really easy to play, it's no longer fun when you play without money, unlike video games there's kind of mission or difficulty to win the games.

Free games is not gambling which has different purpose for people that seek fun on gambling. It’s true that there’s really no fun when you lose however you are not gambling with to lose but rather to win which gives the fun factor on gambling.

You are taking chances to win in exchange for risk on gambling which is the fun part. You can’t experience this kind of fun on fee games since it doesn’t contain risk while risk itself is the one that makes gambling unique way as source of entertainment.

This is the reason why gamblers should only play what they can afford to lose so that in case the result goes bad then the sad part will be brutal.

Not all gamblers think the same way about gambling because there are other gamblers who have greed and others who only chase for fun and others for a source of income.

Now, from what you are saying, there are others who may think that they have lost; they don't notice that he is chasing his losses; otherwise, this scenario will not be good in reality.

I don't really think if their strong reason for gambling is true for fun while what they experience is mostly defeat. It may start with joy but continuing as stressful activities, but still cannot be out of gambling. And you are also right, if it's just for fun, there are still other ways, free games and various online games available today, there are even many choices that we can do.

but in fact, it's not that simple. Because, in gambling, it has something to do with money and hope. Something related to money will be considered as something for fun. Every gambler definitely wants them to be able to really make a lot of money from gambling. they will be happier when gambling and winning and then get a lot of money. that's why they consider gambling for fun.

but what happens if you lose? especially if it is a continuous defeat, then it will end in regret, sadness, disappointment, anger, and even worse addiction.

There's absolutely no fun in losing a bet, even gamblers that play for entertainment occasionally have a little expectation of winning otherwise it would almost be The same thing as throwing your money out the window...But according to psychologists they found out that some addicted gamblers get to a point where they don't care about winning or losing, all they want to do is fullfil the desire of gambling and the only time they can stop is when they have no money left to gamble with, these psychologists actually call it a mental disorder...I haven't benefitted much from free games though but they are worth giving a try, besides you are not taking financial risks, it might fetch you some wins, you wouldn't know until you try

Yes, but the adrenaline will be incomparably less in free games. You can open a demo account and bet on test money, this way you will not lose anything and will not win anything, but it is boring and you will quickly get tired of it.

By the way, I can sometimes play online poker with real players, just for virtual chips, in this case I can say that it can add a little experience, but sometimes it happens that some player joins the game, who is simply tired of everything and he starts playing all-in without fear of losing money, because these are just chips, in real life he would not do this, because he would very quickly lose everything he has.

as for me, one does not interfere with the other. For example, I play cards with friends without bets and it is fun and we also play with bets but much less often (since it is a more serious event and it happens several times a year), but both are fun because the company and the process itself are important, experience comes with time. With bets, of course, there is more excitement and adrenaline from the game, I think everyone understands this anyway.

Gambling is not exciting when you don't involve money in it. Gambling is only exciting when you bet your money and hope that you can win from it. Even though in the end you can lose and lose your money, but that's gambling, you can't expect that you will continue to win every time you gamble, there are times when you will lose or win, and that's where you feel the excitement of gambling - and that is the reason why many people are willing to gamble their money, even when they know that they will most likely lose it.

Do you mean by free games here are demo games? I also play demo games when I've no more gambling allocation budget, but honestly, I get nothing there, just empty games that waste my time. It's different when I play a real game, when I win it makes me really happy, and sometimes losing can be another trigger for the next loss, it all depends on the mindset in each person's gambling preferences.

To some extent you are right because losing is losing and if gambling winnings is based on luck what then the place of experience because with or without an experience a gambler with luck will definitely win so that makes experience to be a subjective phrase that need to be clearly stated and understood, because before you can say you have experienced something, it means that you have Master the act that you defeat that thing and doing it consistently.

But in gambling, consistency is not guarantee and for that one will definitely need to rely on their luck all of the time because it only with that that you be able win anything out of your gambling engagements.

If it was that easy as you have mentioned it, we won’t ever find gambling addiction nor rehab centers that do therapy for gambling addiction. If you have been playing for long and spent enough time to get near addiction or been in one before, then you may change you point of view that playing free games is near close to gambling. The amount of feelings and hormones released during a casino session is very crazy to be compared with spending hours in playing you normal video games or free demo slots.
I have been streaming for a casino before and spent both my money and the free money gaven to me by the casino. The experience is totally different, and in some points you get so bored with the free rolls and free games, while sending long hours using my own money without feeling time.

Getting into trouble due to gambling is something that many people aren’t aware before they start playing, it is very tricky once you start losing control, and if yoi ask many gamblers they would mention the fact of not knowing how they arrived to that bad position in their lives.

It does not seems likely any gambler may accept such a proposal, since even if they are playing for fun they want for something to be at stake when they make those bets, as that is what makes the bets interesting to begin with, and without money on the line, I am sure gamblers will simply find gambling games to be too boring and they may decide to abandon them altogether and find something else more interesting to do with their time.

 I don’t think losing makes you feel more adrenaline. From my personal perspective, it’s more like getting more impatient and aggressive in the bets that you make because you are frustrated with what is happening.

I believe people who usually win in those free games are happy, but it is pretty hard to pinpoint and feel that it is enough. I guess that depends on the person, whether you are greedy or not.

Op I was also on your pace (lane) of thinking that those who have been saying that they are gambling for fun are only saying and not from their minds because nobody would like to deposit and play games for fun without the aim of winning. It looks somehow. Though it has been discussed many time in the forum. And nobody likes to lose in gambling and it is the winning makes it to be fun and not the losing.

And I also agreed with that if those who are playing gamble is foe fun hen it is good for them to use free gambling games and not paid ones and they you can have your fund unlimited.

If money is not involved, I don't think that can actually not be considered gambling, it's rather just having fun or an ordinary predictions so you cannot see it like that as even the emotions then isn't attached to it at that point, gambling has got a whole lot of emotions attached to it and thst is why it does easily get addiction but not on other free games.

Losing from gambling indeed not always be fun even it's quite often to makes me upset but if we compared between playing free games and gambling i think it would be so different especially from the excitement that if playing free games although people won from those games then basically they won nothing because money didn't involved at there but for gambling people will feel their adrenaline will be pumping because they feel the tension and excitement of gambling and people won't find this thing happened when playing free games and for me personally playing free games for a long time it will bore me so that's why although my gambling results is not always be good but i would more prefer to gambling instead of playing free games

Free games or fun modes don't hit the same as playing with real money or free bets where you can potentially walk away with a bit of money. It doesn't bring in the same entertainment value whenever you win because you can't do anything about the winnings.

I mostly play that mode to test out the new casino games, it's still not good enough to replace an actual gambling experience. Even though you can avoid losses with free games, it's only a matter of time until you go through every winning scenario and get bored.

Op, i don't quite understand what you mean by gambling on free games, do you mean demo games or free bet from bonuses? However it might be a bit difficult to understand  how one can derive fun from gambling. Though no one feels happy  when they are strictly on the losing side. But how then do you describe  gambling with small stakes even when you're experiencing loss but you gamble  what you can afford  to loss and gamble responsibly. Based on your perspective you might deem it impossible to have fun even while losing. No matter the duration a gambler spend in gambling, he'll  only get to experiencing how to gamble responsibly or irresponsibly, the duration of gambling doesn't guarantee the gamblers win or loss, they are being determined by luck.

There is where the problem lies, though, when someone who is a gambler decided to try their luck with free games in which there is no risk for them to lose money, they won't be happy if they get lucky in free games, because in most of the times they will think what it could have happened had they decided not to go for free games and actually wager money with such a "good luck" they had on themselves.
Let us assume you start to lose money from gambling on slots, so you get tired and move onto free slots, after some minutes you hit a jackpot in the free game, would you not you feel upset you were not playing on the real deal instead of the free versión?

Free games could turn into an actual source of frustration to those who partake on them while at the same time seek for forture on casinos.

Most people are liars. They say hey make bets to have fun but they are not really telling the truth. All they want is to get rich. You know it and I know it. If they play free games, there won't be any chances of making money so they don't play these games.

There is another potential explanation. They are probably addicted to adrenaline or dopamine or both. Unless they play with real money, they can't have that "real" feeling when they lose or win money.

What good is it if you win a free game? It is not fun at all. It is just a way to pass the time.

There is no gain in losing and losing will waste your money. But there are many people who place a few bets on gambling for fun and don't care if they lose. They have a lot of money with them so if they lose some money in gambling they can bring it back from other businesses. I think this is a risk factor that motivates a gambler to play live games. Moreover, demos are designed to entice you and can be free. Moreover it is a game without risk which is not much fun so it is the right option for those who play but don't want to lose their money.

For the fact video games are not entirely free either, I am not talking about purchasing cost of the game or console but the in app purchases that's where the gaming companies make money and I literally witnessed thousands of people in a gaming community spend more than million dollars for avatars and extra perks in one game alone and they're not streamers so they don't make any money from spending that kind of money in a game which is supposed to be played for fun.

Actually, losing can make a gambler to be more careful on his next try, and the previous bet has given him or her an experience to bet on the next round. However, the reason for a gambler to gain experience from his previous bet is probably because he wants to win. And the need for experience is to put more efforts so that you won't fail the next round.
Well, the facts that gamblers wants to make money there won't be any interest in free games because you won't pay to gamble and even if you win, there won't be any rewards for you.

The very definition of "gambling" contains the condition that it is a game for money. Therefore, it is really strange to discuss why gamblers do not play other types of games (whether they bring pleasure or not is the tenth question). These are the same "difficult" questions as why football players don't play hockey and chess players don't play cards (although in fact many play different games)  ;D

The amount you win in free games will not make you happy. I know some people who play free games and get bored very quickly, for example, they spend at most half an hour just spinning slots, but if they were playing for real money, they would definitely stay online longer. When you are not playing for real money, it is just a game, it is not gambling.

I have always been of the view that those who claim to be gambling for fun are not supposed to be spending too much money in gambling. If the reason for the game is to have fun, there are other recreational activities that can be done without you having to spend money in playing it. 
 
And if the person is to say that it's because of the kind of game, then they should gamble with less money instead of using a huge amount of money, which is as a result of expecting a big win to gamble. 
 
The majority of people who say they are gambling for fun are just lying to themselves, as they are in their for both goals, which are to make profit and also to experience the fun.

Anybody who tells you that losing in gambling brings fun might not be telling the whole truth. Nobody wants to lose money, even the richest men in the world. If I was not gambling there are so many other sources of entertainment that I would have spent money on. I see people see down spend money on beer, yet they criticize a gambler. Others spend money on movies, sports activities, junk food, etc.

The issue here shouldn't be how you feel after a loss but do you have the ability to cope with your losses. If the money you spend on gambling begins to affect your finances, you will have to reconsider your budget. When it comes to feeling bad after a loss that's normal. But when you gamble more than you can afford, it could lead to overreaction.

I also enjoy playing video games, so I used to play free games. But the fun gambling gives is different, and I also have an opportunity to win more money if I am lucky.

There are many games which are more engaging, more entertaining and have more visual and appealing effects but since they do not involve the money, those aren't gambling games. The gamblers only love to gamble and play games where they can win money, without money the gamblers won't be giving any importance to games.
In simple words, the thrill for a gambler revolves around the potential to win money. Do you think there is a way or a process so that to make non-gambling games feel more engaging and entertaining perhaps by introducing some rewards that does not involve money?

But nobody loses all the time... I have written many times, as have many others: "The gambling life is full of ups and downs"! We play to win, but we know that losing is also a part of the game. Nobody wins all the time, it's impossible... but we play because we enjoy the game. If you hate losing simply don't play games, especially gambling games.

Enjoying the game is very important, no one knows the final result, so we play and fight to win. If we win we will be super satisfied, but if we lose we should not despair... there is tomorrow and another chance.

By the way, free games can't awake that competitive feeling in us... that's why raising the stakes brings more excitement. ;)

I think that those who gamble for pleasure also use free games for this purpose. Moreover, you can also get a small cash prize. And if we take into account that free poker, just like sports betting, in case of luck also brings me the satisfaction of winning, then I do not pass by this opportunity.

if you play for free, will you be serious in playing? I think not, because there is no risk that you will receive, you will make bets carelessly. then what is the use of playing for free? no experience. imagine if you bet with your own money you will be more careful right? and besides it is very rare to win from free games
