if we really treat gambling as entertainment, something we do in our free time, shouldn’t it be only during our days off?
Like instead of playing every day, maybe it makes more sense to gamble only on weekends.

Can you actually do that? Or once you’re into betting, is it hard to limit it to weekends only?
How you guys handle this?

We can't be limited to gambling only on weekends, because not all the games we are playing holds on weekends, some are on weekdays, secondly, if it was truly well admitted that gambling is fun to do, then we shou9ne limited or restricted to gambling at a particular time or days, it has to be from our own conclusion to choose between when we are going to gamble and when not to, we live in a free world and must not be abused the same way we can't be denied the freedom to fun and entertainment.

Yes I can do it but it took years before I'm able to manage my gambling time better than before.
Time limit for gambling like once a week is good, but we should also limit how many hours to spend for this once a week gambling.
Coming up to when to play it while it is on weekends or weekdays, it is all about preferences because some gamblers may prefer to spend their weekends with families so they take some hours on weekdays (maybe at night or after works).
Whether it is hard or not to limit gambling time, it depends on how strong our will to do it.

Entertainment or fun shouldn't be limited to off days. You don't work for twenty-four hours, so there is time to relax during the day. I don't think it is wrong to spend a few minutes or an hour a day to gamble if we feel like engaging in it.

Those who are sports bettors might find it easier to gamble only on the weekend when many major leagues, like football, are on. Anyone is free to choose their time that suits them. I like weekends since I have more time to analyse games.

There's no place it has ever been that entertainment should only take place at the weekends, we are rather expected to gamble at the best time we think is more suitable for us to do so, gambling can be done at anytime by any one at any day, just as some of us already highlighted some points as reasons not to only gamble on weekends, seeing this as an entertainment, we should know it's all about finding the best time for doing it, because sometimes, we could also be much engaged on weekends.

What i do most of the time is to schedule my gambling time to only weekend i mostly gamble on Saturdays and some of the weekends i use Saturdays to Sunday for all my games,  since we have alot of games listed on those days, between most of the gambler's i have seen have been able to schedule themselves to some extent that make the gamble in between and at a limited time managed framework that keep them free from possible addiction of over loses.

I can say I can do that. But in the sport that I always watch, the games are almost every day, so I feel like it's a waste not to put some money while watching the game. It's just to boost the entertainment factor of the game.

But in slot games and other casino games, I can definitely not play for the whole week, and maybe just do it when I have spare money. The one thing I realized in slot games, you will need a deep pocket before playing so instead of depositing in installment, might as well just deposit one big amount in the weekends and then stop if it's gone. Wait again for another week.

It actually depends on the player, there are some bets and games that were in the middle of the week it's impossible for you to place bet on those especially if you are enjoying placing bet on live matches and if you are going to play just weekends, you would only enjoy the matches on that day and probably just play casino or other original games but just like what I've said, it depends on the users, they can just place pre-matches bets on weekends and just watch it during weekdays. Usually what works for me is I just place bet after work and limit myself in around 1-3 hours of playing daily or if I reached my limit for that week, I stop it completely.

That's how I actually bet, I select a few matches to bet on over the weekend and then create several bets from them. I can also bet midweek if there are Champions League or national team matches, although I bet on national teams much less often. This mode is very convenient for me because it doesn't distract me during the week when I'm working, and on the weekends I'm more free and can set aside some time for my own leisure time, when no one will bother me.

Its possible to do that and all will matter depends on your dedication to follow those set routines you want to happen. Also you need to have other things to do like working on something that can possible make you earn.

Since if you don't have anything to do and you are used to participate in this activity there's really a good chance that you cannot follow those things that you think you want to do. Since gambling temptation is so strong especially that we can see those gambling ads everywhere.

You should know that sportbet fans wouldn't buy the idea of gambling only at weekends because Champions League and Europa League matches are played during the week and not weekends. Gamblers betting on casino games like slot and the rest can play at their own free time which mustn't be during the weekends.

I only gamble during the weekends because that's when I am free. I watch the matches that I bet on alone or with friends. Every gambler free time differs. The most important thing is responsible gambling.

The question should not be "If gambling is just entertainment, can you limit it to weekends?" Rather, it should be said that gambling should be limited to weekdays only. But here we also need to look at whether if the person gambles on weekends, is it causing any harm to his work or progress in his daily life? If it is causing harm, then he should never gamble except on weekends.
However, if he comes and gambles for a limited time outside of his working hours, including holidays, then I don't think there will be any bad impact on him. However, I would prefer that gambling be done only on holidays.

I can limit at all... it's like watching a movie or making other things like going to sky. For sure gambling can't become something impossible to miss. I would see the opposite, this is the last thing that I would look in my free time. Of course... unless is playing Sinner. This is pretty different... it's not entertainment but there is a clear economic gain.

Betting during the weekends for me it's a way to limit my gambling activities, I might have the time to place bets or gamble on my favourite casino but if you decide to do it just for entertainment then you won't gamble throughout the entire week...gambling only on the weekneds would reduce the losses that you incur and since you gamble only for fun it's not going to make you get addicted to it

Playing every day has always been talked against; the demerits outweigh the merits. It will be harder for someone who wants to remain responsible in gambling to remain responsible if they play every day. Yes, some gamblers are able to play every day and remain responsible, but how many really?

Sometimes the kind of games you play and gamble on plays a role. For instance, gamblers who sports bet can play or gamble only during the times there are games to play. They may not gamble as frequently as someone who likes to play slots and can play whenever they choose.

Apart from limiting to weekend games only, can the person also deprive themselves from gambling every week? The truth is that, some person can take gambling as a fun activity but they still have all the chance they want to continue gambling everyday but at the time that they are very busy, they can also stay away from gambling for as long as they want as long as they don't have the required time to keep gambling. I stopped gambling every day for a long time now, but when I gambling during weekends, it's sometimes very heavy. Note that everyone can also have their different approach.

I gamble just during weekends and that is not all the time but like 2 or 3 times in 4 weeks, but sometimes it can be all weekends throughout the month. I like to call it fun when gambling because I am not doing it in a way it can cause me any problems, both financially and health wise.

Some people can still gamble during weekdays and still have fun if they are using small amount of money on it.

Gambling during the weekends only isn't what is actually considered to be entertainment, I can decide to gamble at any time during the weekdays and at the same time still have fun with it, what matters is how you handle it. There are people that gamble only during the weekends but they end up losing even more than those that gambles both on the weekends and weekdays. It's all about gambling moderately

I can’t do that, it feels like I’m depriving myself of happiness if I only gamble on weekends. Besides, it doesn’t really take a lot of money or time. When I place a bet, even if I don’t watch the game live, it’s fine,  when I get home I can just watch the replay at night. And if I play slots or other games, I can just do it on my phone during break time.

So for me, it’s all about time management and knowing your priorities.
You can still live a happy life even if you’re a gambler.

There seems to be more fun in weekend gambling because the gamblers have more time to gamble as they want, also, there are numerous games and activities during this period, as it marks the end of the week, but we should not forget something more important about it, which does not make any difference at all, either playing on weekends or weekdays, we have the same risk on both.

What about games in the Champions League and Europa League that plays during the week? Creating a good parlay doesn't take much time, 30 minutes of free time is enough, or 1 hour of break time mid-work.

Limiting gambling to weekend isn't a perfect gambling practice if you think so, weekends are best preferred to bet on because of those who will enjoy watching their parlay run live, or considering bankroll management to serve for weekend.

Yes, i can do that but it isn't necessary, I wouldn't miss out on a good odd because it is weekday, even with limited free time, i can create one that won't interfere with my work.

I do schedule all my gambling activities now on weekends since my work doesn’t permit me to have a free time for entertainment purposes. I’m already tired when at home which I don’t have any appetite to gamble.

But I do gamble on weekdays if my workload is not heavy while there’s a casino promotion that’s I want to avail.

Having fun or entertainment doesn’t need to be on weekends. It depends on your free time availability since some gamblers have a weekdays day off or have minimal work.

Had it all happened in the physical casino - weekend scheduling would be easy and maintainable. Gamblers now have casinos in their palms, quick predictions can even be done right in the office. Doing the weekend only type of gaming could result to the kind of self restrictions that ignites anxiety.

Gambling in leisure time  does not mean that we only do it on weekends. We can do  it at night after a day's work. We  can also gamble when we have not any work to do.

Personally, I usually gamble  at night. I like to bet on various football matches. I can bet on them and enjoy the matches at the  same time. Also , if I am free on weekends , I can go to the casino. But I rarely do that. If my friends force  me, I go to the casino. This way we can hang out and gamble at the same time.

Each person creates their own schedule for gambling. When a person gets home from work, they are free to have fun however they want, as long as they are responsible and use money they can afford to lose. For example, I see nothing wrong with someone spending 30 minutes every day after work gambling at an online casino and then spending time with their family, as long as that person is using money they can afford to lose and can always spend more time with their family.

Everything in life, when used rationally and with planning, doesn't create problems. There are people who really enjoy playing video games and play them when they get home from work. But they aren't addicted to video games because they play every day in moderation and responsibly.

Just gambling on weekends can be quite fun. If you take it as a real pastime & dont run after making money, then the fun will increase even more. It is important to set a time &  budget limit for good gambling. Also, many casinos offer options like time out or self exclusion, through which you can distance yourself for a few days. I usually use a weekly bankroll &  a session limit together,  only use a portion of that fixed amount on the weekend. Also, if I see that the attraction to the game is increasing in the middle of the week, I dont go overboard.. I think energy &   patience are a much better option than impulse

Yes, and if a gambler truly treats gambling as a form of entertainment, then limiting their gambling activity shouldn't be a problem.
I also gamble every weekend when I'm off work, and I usually do it after my family time is over. It doesn't last long, maybe just a few minutes, or at most 30 minutes.

If we truly only consider it entertainment, we certainly won't prioritize it. This means implementing the problem isn't a problem. But if a gambler can't do that, I'm sure they're addicted.

I think you are misinterpreting this, It is not a matter of the gambling place but of the individual or gambler himself who wants to play on the weekend. I think your thinking like this is not worthy of being an example,
with a reason not to just gamble on the weekends. If you do a lot of gambling activities for several days every week, it will actually have a bad impact on you, especially on your finances, and you could become addicted later on. In this case, I think Op is correct in managing or maintaining his gambling It's only done on weekends. This is much better compared to your suggestion of playing almost all the time.

For me gambling is only entertainment. I have never started my gambling session being serious and oriented on winning money. I haven never said to my family that right now I am going to gamble, so please dont interrupt or distract me. I can easily limit it to weekends only, sport events only (Olympic Games, National football championship), play only when I am with friends. I even prefer offline gambling among friend with symbolic bet, than gambling seriously online or at the casino. Life conversation and a good company, accompanied with a game of cards = one of best ways of entertainment for me.

You are right dude. Gambling has become easier now because of online casinos. We can now easily participate in gambling on mobile or computer. So we don't have to  wait for the weekend to participate  in gambling only during our free time. We can participate  in gambling anytime using our mobile. So we can continue gambling even in short free time. But if we consider the aspect of physical casinos then it is okay to go once a week. I personally do not  like physical casinos. Because I find it difficult to win money in casinos. I  lose money most of the time. Because there is very little time to make  decisions here.

It should be that way, but we are living in stressful times, and we want a place where we can take the stress away whenever we want, and where we want it. This is why those who can afford it gamble whenever they want, for fun and a chance to make money.
The recommendation has always been on weekends, but it really depends on your free time and the money you have available. If you have the means and are the kind of guy who wants an escape from stress, then it's your call when you want it.

I do tend to gamble more on weekends, although sometimes I also gamble on weekdays. But for a short time, and even then, I do it rarely. If we can limit the gambling activities we do, I think that would definitely be good. Not only would it make our finances more controlled, but the most noticeable benefit is the time we allocate to gambling. We can have enough rest after a tiring workday, instead of using our break time for gambling.

If that's your preference then you do you, I don't see any reason why not.

Of course it's possible. It just depends on whether you are disciplined enough to control yourself. Just like you said, if you treat it only as entertainment, then it shouldn't be a problem (as long as you do it responsibly and in moderation). As for me, it's the opposite. I'd like to reserve all of my time to spend with my family during the weekends, so I only gamble if I have free time during the weekdays (and only when I feel like it).

Of course I can. Saturday and Sunday are the days I place my bets, and those are the only days I enjoy betting. So the answer is yes.

Saturday and Sunday are always my favorite days because I can bet on them because there are so many big matches in several major leagues.
Gambling on anything other than sportsbooks isn't as appealing, so even if I don't play, it doesn't remind me of it.
This has been going on for a long time, and it continues to be the case today, and perhaps in the future.

You can still play every day and treat it as entertainment, as long as your gambling session never interferes with your work, and you play with money that you can afford to lose.
Every gambler is different from one another; there is no rule on how and when you play and the money that you spend, so gambling on the weekend should not be a rule.

Wait, who gamble for everyday? I thought people mostly gamble once a week or two times a week if they really have much free time.

If someone gamble for everyday it means they're either jobless or gambling addict, people don't have much free time because we have to work, doing other jobs and sleep. I even hard to find a free time for me to gamble, I do have free time, but I use it for taking short nap, without taking short nap I'm not able to focus on my thing.

The games are not also limited to weekends, so I don't think that gamblers will just follow a certain path like that. Maybe there are games in the weekdays that it's very good that you are going to win. So why not bet on it?

So it's going to be still a entertainment for us, regardless if it's week days. The best thing is that you enjoy it, no pressure at all to just bet on certain days. You can have that weekend off and maybe not bet and used that time for your family.

We can but the question is should we? It also depends on what type of gambling you are referring to.
I do causal gambling as a way of relaxing my brain where I don't have to think much and when I'm into it, the stress on the mind takes a rest. Evening after long day are the great time for gambling that way. On the other hand, sports betting need attention and planning so I prefer doing them in the late night or morning.
As for weekend, it would be my day off mostly as I would have other ways to keep myself contained.
In short, if I want I could but I don't think that's a better idea. If we are to limit our gambling, it should be done in the amounts and time not by limiting the days.

I don't know if it's easy for other gamblers who treat gambling as a way of having fun or entertainment to be gambling only on weekends because there are gamblers who will prefer to be entertained or have fun anytime there are football features, but as for me, I only gamble on weekends and Champions League week.

Well, this is where the behavior of responsible gamblers lies, we understand that everyone has different ways and views about their goals in gambling, addiction is a serious category, while those who gamble just for fun are those who gamble only in their spare time.

I have a goal of gambling to get rid of boredom or have fun and I saw him gambling actually on office holidays when office activities were off, which means I found that kind of gambler.

As I said above, the point is that sometimes I also limit my gambling, betting on certain football clubs such as Saturday and Sunday schedules only.

Well, that's a given already. If you mean "free time" like lunch and after work, that's not healthy if it's every day. I think it's going to be a problem if you cannot control yourself, and it's getting out of hand and affecting you and your decisions.

If you are having a hard time deciding on just the weekends or controlled ones, you might be addicted.

Well, anyone can limit gambling to just the weekends, but that doesn't mean we need entertainment only on weekends. We also need entertainment when all our productive activities are finished, and gambling is an option we can pursue. So, everyone has their own perspective on their free time. Personally, I am one of those people who gambles on the weekends, even I only do it once every two weeks due to my busy schedule in real life and online, and I think it all depends on the conditions. However, gambling should be done in our free time, and this is intended to help us be responsible in our daily activities, even also in our gambling activities. Essentially, don't let gambling interfere, or disrupt our prime time.

This is assuming that everyone has the same day off which is the weekend. While your day off may be during the weekend, another folk's day off could be on a Monday. While it is true that peak days for land casinos are during the weekends, online casinos may rather the measuring peak hours and not a day in the week.

My thoughts is whether you are betting on your day-off or during the weekend or on week days, don't forget to bet responsibly that is what will make gambling more fun and entertaining.

Some gamblers work during the weekends so we cannot say that it is best to gamble and have fun during weekends alone, what is appropriate is to say that we should gamble when we have the time. I mostly gamble in the evenings during weekdays and in weekends, if I'm busy anytime I don't gamble no matter the time of day. Online gambling has changed the way we time our gambling, you can easily utilize any free time to have fun with gambling unlike before when you need to visit a physical casino and bet outlets to gamble.

Of course, and I can also limit it to less frequent use. Lately, I deposit money and play for several days, which may or may not be consecutive, depending on how busy I am IRL. When I run out of money, or I win a good amount and cash out, I don't play for a while. I haven't gambled in weeks now. So yeah, I actually do that.

Playing on the weekends is the best way of ensuring that you only gamble as entertainment.

When it is merely spare time, then you can easily limit it to days off, and have a fixed budget as with any other pastime.

But, when you struggle to restrain it (because of pursuit of losses or the continuous dopamine rush), then it has probably stopped being entertainment and become an addictive habit, particularly since there is 24/7 access online. In such a case, it will be required to exercise strict self-control or platform limits.

It is good to gamble during your free time but free time doesn't mean it must be holidays or weekends. No matter how hard working you are there always a free time, maybe during the night or early in the morning. As for me there are time that I have a lot of free time and there are something I don't get such opportunities. During my busy days I feel tired and I don't gamble that day.

Yes, I can, and to state the fact I can go on without gambling for months and they come back and repeat the long hibernation with no problem. It is just me realized that gambling is not a money making strategy and if I have to get rich then I need to work my ass off.

I place most of my bets on weekends because that's when most of the games are played
Also, I have a little more time to analyze the matches on weekends

However, I don't limit myself to that. If there are interesting games during the week and I find good opportunities, I can bet any day of the week
Maybe 70% of my bets are on weekends

We're always on the subject of self-control, if you can control yourself and your finances allow it or don't allow it anyway, it matters little.
You could limit yourself to just 1 time a month, I don't know maybe that time you play $10 for example in different bets, so there too it's a question of self-control.
Unfortunately, you lose control whether you win or lose. If you win, your brain thinks (wow, it's easy to win). If you lose, your brain thinks (I have to make up for what I lost). From that exact moment on, you've lost control.

It's not difficult to do. Most gamblers I know who are just sports bettors place bets mostly during weekends because most of the top leagues play during weekends. These gamblers believe that they have better chances of winning if they place bets on those big matches. These bettors naturally limit themselves to just betting during weekends without even putting in efforts to restrict themselves. I too is not left out on this, most of my gambling activities are during weekends. Gambling during weekends is only challenging for those gamblers who gamble compulsively; disciplined gamblers do not have problems with gambling when they have the free time to gamble.

I also think like you that if everyone took gambling as entertainment and if there was no way to make money here, then maybe people would want to enjoy it on holidays like we like to watch movies on holidays. But most people are greedy for money or see gambling as a way to make money in a short time. And the reason why most of them choose this gambling is financial pressure. Financial pressure can come at any time. Whether it is a holiday or not. This is basically why people gamble at any time especially when there is financial pressure or greed to make money in a short time.

If it's a casino game of course it's possible for me to play it on weekends when I have a full day off, but betting on soccer matches I say no, because the match takes place on weekdays, so what can make my entertainment have to be missed just because of your suggestion, but I say that it's possible but not for me, maybe only for you guys.

Time is subjective, no one should control it, I am a free and flexible worker, without having to go to the office to go in the morning and go home in the afternoon then the weekend is off, I'm not like you or like anyone else.

Anyone that actually has a problem on how they can control their "own" habits/hubbies, whatever we'll classify that as, is off the course by 80%. During our youthful days, someone was challenged to stop a particular habit of chewing on their finger nails for a month, and they'll get as much as she needed for new dress. She lost , you know why? But she couldn't even stay a whole day and everything was gone! A minor entertainment is all you can take it for.. play only when you want to, not when you feel you have to.

If gambling is an entertinment, should we limit tihs on weekend only ?
remembeer weekend is a time we should give to our family and our children is the most important people we should spare time and make memories.

We can have fun at gambling everyday if we can limit it or after family hours right?
I am telling this as for all and not just myself. i know I spent more time on gambling but i make sure that weekend is the time for the family (first  ;D )

There's a lot of positive benefits to gambling because gambling can be used to free you from stress after a long day work. This means that you can gamble anytime that you are stressed up at work and not compulsory it must be weekends. We go to work often during the week and rest during the weekends which means that gambling can be done anytime you feel is the right time for you to gamble.

Not only have have I reduced the amount of time I spend on gambling to just weekends but I do it on only the weekends that I’m totally free. There are times when I might have somethings to do and have a little space in between,’some gamblers might still want to use that space to gamble, but me I have so much reduced my gambling that whenever I have something else to engage with I don’t even bother to even gamble for the week.

I think I have gone months before without gambling and If I decide that I don’t want to gamble in the next couple of weeks I’ll be able to do it without having any form of urge or having to battle with any urge to gamble. And this right here is from someone who was at a point addicted to gambling.

It’s not easy, but you need to start small and start to look at gambling differently from what you were usung to view it, look at it from a different perspective and you’ll see the difference. It’s more like your fiancé/fiancée that broke up with you and now you’ve moved on and no longer have any feelings towards them again, that’s how I now view gambling as. It’s no longer something that titillates me anymore.

Surely this depends on when people get the fund to gamble with. If a person works and earn money on a regular basis, he may decide to gamble without season, probably any day any time provided that he has the money to gamble. Let say a person that recieve weekly pay like signature campaign may be gambling on weekends while a gambler who earns monthly may be gambling only on month end or he could as well keep some separate fund to be using to gamble everyweek. for me my gambling habit is timeless and baseless meaning that I don't have a particular time to gamble and I don't also base only on weekends it can be on weekends or on mid week. I just gamble as my heart desires and not a programed gambling.

Many will disagree; there are no specific rules in our system that require us to gamble on a specific day. If you have the money, the time, and the motivation, then play with all your heart, regardless of the day or occasion.
Gambling is entertainment you can do anytime, anywhere you like. The choice is yours, just be a responsible gambler.

That is what we need to do with gambling. It is about controlling ourselves, treating gambling as entertainment. I can do that easily and no need for a big effort to prevent myself from playing daily. If you can learn to control yourself, you will not feels it difficult to stop gambling. You can do that easily and not try one more time. Gambling is just entertainment so you should limit it and not gamble excessively.

Gambling can be a great way to unwind after a long day, that part is entirely true. The thrill, distraction and excitement that comes with gambling has the ability to help people switch off mentally and forget about they actually had a rough day. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that if and when it’s done occasionally, and not something that’s suddenly become a habit, because that’s how addiction mostly starts. What started out as just a way to distract yourself, suddenly gets out of hand and becomes something you can’t break free from.

It depends on you because that's the way you could view it to be entertaining, while others sees it differently, at first though, I thought of gambling to be played on weekends, Saturdays and Sundays especially on sports betting where many major leagues are been played, it's more entertaining that way because there are lots of fixtures to pick from on different leagues.

The career gamblers do not think of it that way, they literally found to be done everyday because of their target to be reached, these people do not treat it to be entertainment, rather a major source of income.

I can, why not? It's not hard to limit your betting activity just for the weekend only. However, i'm not sure someone who was actively doing slot betting will able to do that. I mostly focused onto the sport betting, which often happened during the weekend.

Sometimes, i did it during the week days when it comes to the european competition. The key is that how strong your commitment in limiting your bankroll to be spent everyweek.

If you can't do that, then forget to think just to gamble during the week end.  ;D

Gambling is entertainment and having fun shouldn’t be limited to a specific time of the day or days of the week, imagine you are traveling a long distance and you become bored along the way (not driving) you can just go to a casino get on slot canes spin and win or loss anyone but the feeling you will get outta that will even be more fun, with this can of example that I gave fun or entertainment is supposed to be on anytime anywhere just when you feel the need to do it but not when doing something that will endanger your live like driving and gambling.

I don't limit my entertainment (movies, video games,etc) to weekends why should I put gambling on weekends? And neither do I say that these things should only be done in free time, just start 'em wherever you feel like it, I mean I could open a casino right now and make a bet cause I am feeling bored.

Gambling occasionally or only on weekends is the normal thing that supposed to be done when it comes to gambling but gambling is one thing that is addictive in nature over time you will find out that gambling becomes part of you the more . You funds out that sometimes you gamble every day and any day that one is not able to gamble it becomes a problem to the individual involved. It's really difficult to restrict our gambling only to weekends only.



It will take someone with a high level of discipline and self control to actually gamble only on weekends because gambling is seen as entertainment because when once you start gambling it becomes part of you and the feeling of gambling everyday comes in gradually.

You know entertainments is not meant for only weekends, their are people who are so busy during the week days and the only time they have for gambling is only in the weekend. But their are some people who can choose to enjoy this entertainment at anytime either week day or weekend,  so I think entertainment in gambling is all about time and when ever you feel like to have fun in gambling.  It can be done at anytime, the most important thing is never to go more than your limits.

I only gamble on weekends, and usually on casino games like slots and blackjack, among others. I rarely gamble during the week, unless there's a match I want to bet on, which usually happens on Wednesdays in the national championship and other championships here in the country where I live.

Although the topic may seem silly, you have raised an important topic here, because the main point of your topic is time management. However, I believe that gambling should only be done during people's leisure periods. In my case, if I were to say, I have some time for my entertainment after work four or five days a week, and that's when I mainly gamble.
Now, if another person only gets one day off a week after finishing all their work or doesn't have time to gamble extra every day, then this may not be applicable to them. In this case, my only preference for them would be to only gamble on weekends.

If the weekend is the only free period I have for myself, then I will limit my gambling to be carried out only on weekends, but since my work gives me enough space, I choose how to manage my time: either I use it to gamble, or I spend my time on other things, and even if the weekend was the only free period, I will not be gambling all weekend.

It must be acknowledged that it is difficult to limit gambling only to weekends. I think this is only possible for those who have busy work schedules and therefore don’t have much free time for other activities. Besides, if you see gambling simply as a form of entertainment among many other entertainment options, I think it will be easier to control it. Most people who become addicted to gambling are, in many cases, unemployed. They gamble to make money, not because they see it as entertainment.

That is what I do also, not country games though because I don't like playing country games because sometimes they seems hard to predict though I have made a lot of money with country games but I don't like it. I prefer clubs games because I know there strength and so many other things and  even though I don't win all the time but I found them very cool and interesting and sports betting is my game and then sometimes midweek games when there is champions league mostly or normal midweek games but anything I have incur so much loss whether weekends or midweek i don't play.

Limiting gambling to weekends works for some people because it creates a fixed schedule and prevents emotional, mid-week chasing. The key is treating it like any other entertainment budget, not a daily habit. Setting a small limit and sticking to it usually helps avoid tilt or overplaying.

How do you decide your weekly cap by time, by money, or by mood?

That’s a good one. You’d have to take into consideration the nature of one’s job. Some people work remotely and have more free time than others. For me it’s easy to keep my gambling activities on weekends only because I mostly bet on football games especially EPL matches and that’s mostly played on weekends.

Any person can do that especially those who are occupied with their regular work. Because they have little to no time to gamble during weekdays. And they will only have free time to really sit down and relax during weekends. So yes, anyone can just limit it to weekends only.

For me, my weekly cap is by time and money. Time because I prioritize what is most important and gambling is on my last item. And by money as well, because I only allocate certain amount per session and that means, once it is busted, it means, stop. If you can't contain your gambling activities, then, for me, you will surely have some problems one way or another. Because that will surely create issues or concerns that you won't control.

What you're saying here is something I've been thinking about for a long time. The fact is, it's not as easy as it seems. Often, you'll find yourself in extremely stressful situations where you need entertainment, and gambling becomes your escape to at least temporarily forget your problems. I know this is wrong, you shouldn't gamble when you're stressed because it can have a negative impact not only on your finances but also on your emotions when you lose. However, that won't happen if the money you use is part of a gambling budget that you've already set aside. Maybe at one point you're bored because your work is finished early, and you're confused about what to do, so you decide to gamble that day. So, there are many factors that can cause you to deviate from your plan to only gamble on weekends.

Most of our favourite leagues are played midweek or in some cases the weekend. You don't expect we play only on weekends and miss out on the fun during the weekdays. Take for instance, in football, the Champions League is played on weekdays and it is the most exciting competition in football as a sport. No football lover would want to miss out on the fun of betting both for fun and for any other purposes.

So, the answer is NO. Bettors bet when there is an exciting game that would likely be very competitive regardless of the days it falls on.
It is only a matter of choice whether to miss out or to place bets on those odds.

It's not just an entertainment for me and it's not also a source of income but it's just in the middle, relying on gambling as a source of income is not sustainable enough and playing without expecting to win is also not what I want, I want to make money from gambling but I don't want to depend on gambling, I'm used to gambling always, if I don't gamble on week days, it means I'm busy in what is more important than gambling.

It's okay to do it in any day for as long as it's on free time. What if I've got a lot of free time everyday after doing my shift? that's fine because I know that I am not addicted and I have the control over my balance and how much I am gambling with. And so, if I can do it on weekdays without having any trouble to myself, I'd do it for as long as I can. But if someone is in bad shape and they can no longer control themselves, this is the best solution to gamble only for a few times a week, either in weekdays or weekends whichever is comfortable but limit it to only few times.

This is a very nice question, I have been meaning to ask this question for Long but it always Skip my mind whenever I tried asking. You know I'm this set of gambler that only gamble during weekend I don't usually bet during mid-week unless my favorite team have a midweek match and we know that this doesn't happen more often and sometimes even though my favorite team have a midweek match I will just Skip them that's if I'm busy with work but if this happen when I'm off from work then I will just bet them. But it surprises me when I see people betting from Sunday-sunday without even skipping some days, and it is obvious that those gamblers that normally go with this method are those set of gamblers who are jobless.

It is quite difficult to limit gambling activities and to only the weekends because the weekends are for those who work 9-5 everyday each week to earn a salary or for some who earn some profit from doing personal business.
That's why the weekend is mostly for rest and doing laundry not a serious work day.
This being said means that those who gamble increase their activity based on how engaged they are, irrespective of the weekend rule or not. 
Gambling is supposed to be for entertainment and anyone can entertain themselves whenever they want at their discretion.

The question is that most of us only entertain ourselves on weekends. As for me, entertainment should be every day, as long as we have free time to entertain ourselves. That is the reason why we don’t need to limit our gambling activities to weekends. Everyone knows the best time to entertain themselves, and that is why they don’t need to move their gambling activities only to the weekend.but the only reason I feel that someone should not gamble regularly is because they might get addicted. If someone gambles too often, it’s possible that they may not be able to control themselves again.

I generally bet when I see an opportunity and think it's a great chance to win money. So, for me, weekends are completely irrelevant. I need a match and a game to bet on, but I also find plenty of reasons why it's better than other bets and will bring me profit in the long run. I might end up losing, but at least I'm doing what I think and I enjoy it. That's why I gamble: to test my strategies and knowledge, and to have fun. So, weekends are completely irrelevant to me; I can play much less; it all depends on the tournaments.

I can limit my gambling and only do it on the weekends, there's no need to gamble every day even if it's a small amount.
Gamble on weekends with sports betting because there are a lot of matches on weekends, right? Well there I do a small amount of betting... if I win I can continue betting and if I lose I stop waiting for next week again.

But if there are League and UCL matches then it will split the bankroll.
$10 for league bets
$10 for UCL bets.

Yes, why not! I don't see any practical reasons why can't we, unless we are talking about someone who is really addict to gambling.

But in real world not everyone sees it as purely as a form of entertainment. For some it's a money printing machine where you can make infinite money. Something that can make you millionaire overnight. This kind of thinking leads to excessive gambling. Hence one cannot limit it to weekends only. But if are referring to someone who isn't an addict or don't have that kind of mindset, then yes they can easily do that. And of course, everything I said, is only from my personal point of view. Others might have different perspective.

Normally, i bet mostly on weekends because that is when they play many sports events especially football games, the reason for this is that you will have many options of events to bet on. Any game that you are not convinced about your prediction on it, you can conveniently choose another game. However, gambling is still for entertainment regardless whether you bet on daily events or weekend events. Everyone have days they find convenient to gamble and have fun so it's not only on weekends.

Gambling can be done anytime, especially at online casinos. Physical casinos may only be accessible on weekends because from Monday to Friday we are working and have little time to play at casinos.

However, today we live in a modern world where time and place are more flexible for gambling. It can be done anytime and anywhere, as long as you have money, a smartphone, and internet access. Regarding time management, weekends are indeed better, but it depends on how you prefer it.

We don’t only get entertainment on weekends, after a work day you can have your entertainment, your entertainment is when you like to have it. Although most of my gambling are on weekends not because that’s when I want my entertainment but because I am likely to be tired to gambling after a day of stressful work and if I do gamble it is not as fun as when I am not stressed out.
If you can gamble responsibly you can gamble when you want, also be responsible with money.

yes you can limit to it as long as you're a disciplined person. Because why would you prioritize a thing that is for entertainment during weekdays, 'cause a wise and responsible man wouldn't think about gambling but instead, they will focus on earning more money. Having fun through gambling is just a side quest for some people and those are the most ethical and disciplined people. They know the risks and consequences regarding gambling so they won't commit too much and will just threat it as entertainment. It's not that hard to be honest, we just need to be careful and see that gambling isn't a good way to earn, it's just for fun and thrill.

for me it really depends on mindset if you honestly see gambling as pure entertainment then yeah in theory should into for weekend only same as going to the movies or hanging out with friends, no pressure no chasing wins just enjoy only but in reality once you get into betting sometimes hard to limit not cause of immediate addiction but you know the games run every day, promos every day and sometimes boredom hits  so if no discipline you’ll get easily hook.

There are some people that gamble only in the weekend while others are regular gamblers. Those who gamble at the weekend also budget their finances like that and separate funds for the weekend to predict top leagues while the regular gamblers play different games. Virtual to live matches daily. Some stay in the hall throughout the day gambling. Owing credit all over. The regular gamblers can't limit their time and only the weekend gamblers can do that.

I don't gamble every day, at most once a week, sometimes twice. I try not to gamble so frequently to avoid addiction, since we all know that when there's an addiction, it becomes difficult to control... I know people who gamble all the time, they even borrow money to gamble... I would never want to reach that level of addiction, so I try to take care of myself as much as possible.

If gambling is entertainment, then why should you participate one day a week? Instead, you participate according to your plan and enjoy the entertainment the way you want. But the most important thing is how many hours you will spend entertaining yourself, which depends on your personal preferences. If you like to do sports betting, how can you participate considering only one day off in a situation where your favorite sport may not be available on the weekend?

That is, how many days a week you participate will depend on your control and how much you allocate to your gambling budget. Since you will take it as entertainment, you will have to participate with this perspective of gambling entertainment. You will never participate in it as a source of income, in which case you will deviate from your entertainment perspective.

That's not a reason to limit it to weekends only. Gambling is something we choose ego do at our leisure hours. Most times during the week we might have to attend to work or business so may not be able to gamble as much. During the weekend, it's usually time to spend time with family and friends and we might be able to put gambling in if time permits. For me I usually gamble any time I'm free during the day, when I have less work on my desk, I just go ahead to toss a few rounds for the fun. Then at times before I go to bed I play some crash to end the day. Bit it all depends on if I have spare cash to use for gambling..

I have seen people into sportsbets play only on weekends because most games are played then maybe that can be considered gambling for fun from what you stated. I can't limit it to weekends but I can go a full week without playing a game and can go a full week with all day occupied by slots or sports games. Entertainment wasn't meant for weekends only.

The debate about gambling being for entertainment or not is still very strong so you will expect responses for or against but we know large number of people believe gambling is not done for fun. I see the point that you are coming up with to say why not have the fun once in a while instead of all the time, week in week out like a real gambler going for determined cash out. So I believe people don't go for recreation or fun stuff daily but to be on your casino every day, perhaps you are not doing it for fun or entertainment.

Honestly, it can be done, but it’s way harder than it sounds. I tried telling myself “only weekends” last year. First week was fine, felt kinda proud even. But then a random Wednesday hit, I was bored, stressed from work, and boom I was back scrolling odds like a zombie.

For me the problem wasn’t the schedule, it was the impulse. Weekends-only only worked once I started tracking my urges and literally deleting the apps Mon Fri. Felt stupid at first lol but it helped.
So yeah, it’s doable, but u gotta be real with yourself. If you’re already slipping into daily betting, weekends only might feel like swimming against the current.

The weekend is meant for workers who go to work from day to day to have their rest. They can decide what to do with it. For those who always have time, they can always gamble and get entertained whichever every day of the week they consider comfortable for them and not for them to reserve a specific period for gambling activities, entertainment don't have specific period when it could be enjoyed.

No doubts weekend holds  more matches than the regular days but however what  of other games that are played on the same week days gambling for fun can not be narrowed to just because it's done on weekends alone .
Infact if I gamble for fun that's the more reason I should gamble every day because it's what I find interest in doing on a normal day so I can not narrow it to just weekends alone.

Sure, why not? If it is really just for entertainment, keeping it strictly to weekends is actually the best way to control it. For me I even do have more time to myself more on weekend.
At least that way it stays fun and does not interfere with my week days o and other things.

For me, gambling is just for fun, and I do that mostly at weekends when I am less busy. I do it on weekends to avoid distractions from work, business, and other activities that demand my full attention. Sometimes games can be time-consuming and make one lose focus on what they are doing, so this is why I prefer to play games during the weekends, so that I know I don't have much worries about work and my games while I relax and do my things as it pleases me.

Is actually all about self control. Which many gamblers don’t have actually while some do, some can stop after losing all their funds and have seen many related cases . While some stop whenever they their budget limit which is actually far better . As gambler either you gambling for fun or the money learn how to work with budget know when to call it a day cause gambling is not a do or die thing . So have a fixed budget and work with it , and avoid always going overboard all in the name of going all in .

To be honest, I even forget that I have to gamble and I've got some spare in my balance. And I think that's the beauty of having some spare, you don't have to schedule when you'll gamble. You just pop and open your account and do some spins, that's what I do whenever I have some free time too. If you'll make yourself as a weekender type of gambler, that's not bad at all. You're giving yourself a limit not only with the time that you'll consume in gambling but of course with the money that you'll have to allot when you're about to do it.

If gambling is for fun, I don't think it should be limited, there's no specific time for entertainment, even for those people that work all day but only have free time on the weekend. They still have fun on their break time so they can gamble with that time. Gambling has no limit on when to stake a game, all a responsible gambler will do is to limit the time spent in a gambler centre or in a gambling app and not to gamble directly from a major account. It's good to set aside money for gambling no matter the time you are doing it, weekend or no weekend, and don't gamble above what you can afford. These are only basic rules I see in gambling that can work very well.

Of course things like this are still very much possible, it's just that when looking at the conditions, especially for those in sportsbetting, sometimes we just have to try to shift the time not only on weekends considering that the match schedules in some competitions vary.

So in this case instead of limiting gambling on weekends only, I would rather limit the budget that I have to spend during the week where it will be much more worth it for me.
Not that I want to gamble more intensely but indeed when I like soccer sometimes not only weekends are used as a benchmark because when the season rolls on it can even be every day of the week there are matches that take place at most if there is a break it is only 2 or 3 days.

Those who prefer weekend games are those people that are fully occupied by their work throughout the week, the only opportunity they have to gamble is on weekends. But those that gambles on regular basis without considering whether it is weekend or not, are those who their work doesn't affect their gambling Time. As a matter of fact some people have the full time to gamble even when they are in work place. But the best time to gamble in my own understanding is on weekends when the gambler will focus and make good prediction without being in haste.

Honestly, it's a good way to limit betting to weekends only, but it may or may not happen. If we go deeper, then it's your own responsibility. If you are treating it like entertainment, just like the others, then you will control it, but it's difficult. The reason is clear: the casinos are designed to engage the players, and they don't leave the casino. They will attract you with different games, and you will spend more time than you initially decided. For that, you have to set some rules for yourself and make them so strict that you can't even cross them.

Poker weekends or weekdays? I've done that mostly during the weekdays and there are some tournaments that can be done in the weekend. But with how I play poker now, I do only when I have some spare time. Honestly, there were weeks that I don't have spare time to join some tournaments even if they're for free. So, it lies with our availability and I think our mood also plays a part when we do it.

Nah, it’s hard for me to do that. It may be a form of entertainment, but it involves money, and who doesn’t want money? All of us want money, so that’s very hard. Once a game involves money, the way we treat it becomes different. Now, if you have good self-restraint, then you can limit your playing time to weekends. Whether you win or not, you shouldn’t let the excitement or frustration get into your nerves, and you should calmly wait for the next weekend. Limiting your playing time is also a way to prevent yourself from becoming addicted. But for a long time player, that’s hard to practice, for real.

I think one of the reasons why Premier leagues down to Seria A league are played on Saturday simply because it's off days and that's the only time people have to watch football and perhaps some sporting activities and hence the reason why gambling is played mostly on weekends. However, everyone doesn't do skilled labour, some people work at home and have free time as they like, you don't expect such people to wait for weekend before they want to gamble.

Fun can be anytime, if you have the time and you feel it's okay to gamble that's on you but personally I don't have free time, I have work to do, I spent some time on the forum and equally have time for my family, I can't be gambling all day when I don't have much time to even give myself a proper sleep than the usual bed time I do have. Saturdays are ideal for me, Sundays too but I like it when I spend much of my Sunday time outside the internet.

If the game is only centered on the casino or the original, it may be possible to enforce this condition but when the basis is multiple bets such as in sportsbetting or even card tournaments such as poker, it seems a little difficult to do.

It would be quite good to apply a strategy like this combined with good financial management when playing in casinos considering that it is still quite free to do whenever we want so that weekends are also not a problem but for sportsbetting or some other games such as poker (especially when it is a tournament) then obviously the schedule can be erratic so gambling on weekends even though it can be done but not all will do it especially those who are fixated on sportsbetting.

This is impossible and not because many are addicted rather gambling activity can be done at any time mostly when matches are fixed outside weekend days for example the champions league match can be fun and interesting, while watching alongside betting on favorite team is not bad although I understand the point definitely anyone can discipline their gambling lifestyle to such manner but, not too serious limiting gambling only on weekends probably when an instruction is given then the rule becomes difficult but viewing gambling is an entertainment not a money making machine anyone can gamble not minding the day.

Gambling is all about entertainment but it is the way you gamble in the gambling will it be determined if you are gambling for the sake of entertainment or for the sake of human to make a benefit from it

Most people who participate in gambling today them participate in gambling because the love the entertainment in gambling and some people some gambling as a privilege or an opportunity to make money, so those ones that is in gambling as a proper Avenue for them to make money can never consider gambling as a part of entertainment

Even everyday gambling can still be limited, unless we don't take it seriously. If we only have 2–3 hours of gambling every day, that seems enough to enjoy it. But if we want to accumulate it during our weekend break, it still depends on us. If gambling during the weekend makes you feel comfortable, then do it. Besides, we are not forced to do it every day. In addition, it is within our control. Responsible gambling is not just about limiting our time gambling but also our spending habits.

It is possible to limit our gambling activities to weekends if the games being played are mainly weekends, like the EPL are often time weekend games. There are lots of games available in casinos, so for those who are real gamblers, it will be difficult to stay away from gambling through the whole week. For me, I gamble only during weekends, and not all weekends I gamble as well, cause I have time set aside for it, and whence that time is past, gambling is past as well.

I agree, as long as you can do it on a daily basis and you have limited time to cover, anyday of the week is okay. It's a matter of how disciplined we are if we're going to gamble and if it's an entertainment, I guess that we shouldn't be too strict with our schedule if that's the main purpose of it. If we lose today and tomorrow, it doesn't matter, we continue to gamble in a few hours in a day where we can do it freely and have no problem of spending the money we've got and as well as the time we have. Because people say that our time is precious so, that entertainment moment is precious and just don't let your emotions be at center when you are having fun.

Yes, I only gamble on weekends, and even then, when I'm not going anywhere and just staying at home. But if I have to leave the extended family home on the weekend, of course, I prioritize that over gambling, which is purely for my own personal enjoyment.

I only gamble on weekends, except when I have truly free time. I also always make sure that I only make a single deposit of an amount I'm prepared to lose, regardless of the outcome, especially if I lose. We must truly be able to accept the outcome gracefully. Because one of the reasons people continue gambling is to chase losses.

That's true, you can't rule out the money making opportunity, if it wasn't for that, we simply wouldn't bother, because why would you? I claim to gamble for the entertainment, not because I don't care about the money, but because it's not my priority. I enjoy earning, but I'd rather not lose money from it (who would want that anyway?) For this reason, I spend a relatively low amount, and only do it on the weekends, my weekdays are too limited to bother with gambling, I don't want to add one more "activity" on my schedule. It's best to gamble when time allows you to.

Yes, I can easily do that.

I actually don't focus on the weekends right now because my job as a freelancer doesn't limit me to working during the week and resting on weekends. I can actually work 3 hours a day and feel great whole week, while having time to do whatever I want like sports. So, I gamble whenever I feel like it. Sometimes twice a week, sometimes just once per 2 weeks. I could easily limit it to an hour or two once a week because I often do it even less.

For those who are addicted to gambling I think it will be difficult for them just to gamble during the weekend only but, for me is okay gambling just on weekends with just few activities makes it look more easier speaking about myself when I have alot of activities at hand I mostly get them mixed up and mostly leaving a lot of them undone gambling during the weekend is okay for me

This can be achieved by having a clear idea of what we want to do during the weekend and this way we will avoid putting in new stress on our already hectic schedule. The choice to reduce expenditure indicates that we are still worried about financial security despite our desire to have some downtime. When we have our own entertainment space we also bring a better balanced rhythm to our lives so that we do not disturb work time. This way will enable us to have fun but at the same time make each action we take in our power. This mechanism is familiar with the way we preserve our control over the minor things.

I prefer to fill my free time by gambling every day, because I always make my gambling allocation every day so of course it is not a problem at all if I gamble every day, if I only do it on weekends I feel bored every day, to be honest I have quite a lot of free time every day around 3-5 hours

I've never actually bet on a weekday, it's always been on weekends. However, technology allows people to bet even from places where it wasn't possible before. Many people do it from work or in their daily lives because of the easy access. I don't know if it's right to do it at work, unless they do it during their break. I think it's fine, and there's nothing wrong with relaxing for a few minutes to relieve stress.

I believe it is best known to those that are fully occupied within the week, as they might not be chance to even gamble as there are lots of activities within the week. They do gamble only at most free weekends or most times that they are really on vacation. It is quite well that, no matter how interesting it is for you to gamble and you have fully stocked of activities, the mindset of gambling will be erased out, as you need to cover up those things you are supposed to do.
Most persons you will find, gambling at anytime, are doing it because to them, gambling is not something that do entertain them, it is what they do and they can not do with gambling, these are the ones that are addicted to it and that is just the simple truth.

In my opinion, many people manage to do it, especially those who basically gamble for entertainment and do not view gambling as something very serious. Gambling is not just about budget, it is also about time, and not everyone has enough free time to gamble. If you already have a family, you naturally need to prioritize spending your free time with them.

That is why I’m not surprised to see that most gamblers who bet regularly every day are those who do not have a steady job, as they have more freedom to spend their time gambling. However, aside from all that, as long as you do not gamble beyond your limits, I think it is not a major issue.

The perception of gambling behavior is better explained when we are made aware of the fact that the rhythm that each person lives is unique and the preference of entertainment not necessarily holds equal importance. Others gamble merely to spend time whereas some might get attracted by the restrictions on various other activity. In that case we must determine whether or not the conduct is within safe parameters. In such a manner, any habit can be tracked so as not to make it come between more essential commitments and form an additional source of stress.

In that you are right, it's impossible to measure absolutely anything because one citizen's life is completely different from another's, the dynamics change, the variables change, therefore it's impossible to measure... what we have is more "guesswork" and points of view, which depending on who is observing may be right or wrong... in short... to summarize: everything is relative.

Well, It mostly depends on how you as an individual see and take gambling and of course, your schedule for work and play. I guess some people just don't see gambling as an activity to be done only on the weekends as a lot of people gamble everyday. Perhaps an individual might have his schedule and plans for gambling only when it suits him while anotber individual goes to the casino after work or logs in online.
Some people do see gambling as an entertainment and still partake in it daily, while some see it as a means of making more money and still partake in it daily. The weekend might be a good time for some people to relax and partake in some past time activity after working Mon to Fri. Others prefer to gamble daily. It all depends on you as an individual and your preference.

I usually gamble only if I'm bored, at no specific time. Sometimes I gamble before I sleep, but most of the time I gamble on weekends because I have more free time with my friends, and it is more fun if you have some friends gambling with you. They don't have time on weekdays since those are their busy days at their jobs, and weekends are their days off.
What I only limit for myself is that I don't risk too much; I just gamble a small amount. If I lose it, it's enough; at least I'm entertained a bit.

Well, we have different plans in mind, so some people have different ways to limit your gambling activity, but this is my way, and I only do this when bored since if we meet with my friends, we don't always have long stories to talk about, so we gamble a bit for a little more fun while thinking about the next gossip stories to talk about.

Of course, ideally we only gamble whenever we really have spare time/free time. Moreover if it is for entertainment purpose, it shouldn't bother our daily activities. For the busy people, they probably gamble at weekend because they have no free time in weekdays. IMO, this is something very common among the gamblers.

Well, they people who gamble daily, I don't think they gamble for entertainment purpose. But they gamble for money, they chase the profits. I personally never blame them because they may have their own goal. We know that each gambler has their own way in gambling. But I myself only gamble for fun and I gamble only 1-2 a week.

I think it is a good thing to make up such rules which limit our gambling time but as well as our gambling funds. Without such restrictions, gambling becomes nothing but a crutch and a way to lose everything.

Although gambling every weekend might be too much. You don't want to make it a habit.

Yes to those that gamble responsibly it is only on weekends that many spots play because it's weekend,where many big men and women will just relaxing at home watching football,but to those matches that couldn't play in the within the week they will actually miss it and only view the scores in live scores but check very well betting company or many matches play in weekends.

Match is full of fun but due to fans who always delibrate on football the team that will will brought betting to this extent if not is just for fun .

I do not play every weekend and only if I want to play, then I will gamble. Gambling makes us deeper easily and spend more time without noticing.

This is why we need to manage our time and not play every day. That gives us more problems because it will be difficult to quit gambling. Besides that, we can attract us deeper to gambling.

We have to try to limit our gambling activity and only gamble on weekends. We reduce our gambling activity for our good.

To reduce means to minimize the risk, so if you see gambling as high risk and you’re losing money when you do it more often, then yeah, reducing it makes sense. But I believe it depends on the person. Anyone who is responsible can enjoy gambling even if they do it every day. Like me, I’m proud to say I’m responsible and I gamble regularly, but I’m sure I never go beyond my limits.

Those who gamble for fun do not only play on holidays but can play whenever they want. And if a responsible person gambles for fun and entertainment, he plays once or twice a week. But those who try to have fun all the time play every day but it is likely to be risky for them because there is a possibility of addiction. It is certainly difficult if you bet once a week and keep it up for a week then it is not fun. However, I know that very few people who have extra money play for fun and entertainment but most people play to make money and win. However, I have played a few times although I do not have enough money so I will not play for fun because I am afraid of losing money. However, if I gamble for fun then of course I will play a bet once a week so that I can have fun.

I would say yes , the game can be limited to the Weekend if we decide to , the Same goes for betting, those who like football can go to the EPL as they said, if they want other leagues then they have to pay special attention and that includes taking time out of work or any other Activity , our life is a decision and what suits us best is what we should do.

Yes, I always gamble on weekends because I don't have time to gamble during the week (Monday through Friday), as I'm tired and need a break after work. However, if there's a soccer bet that I think is easy to predict, I'll bet on it because it requires minimal research. Except for slots or poker, which I always play on weekends to fill my free time, have fun, relax, and enjoy the game.

Gambling shouldn't be an everyday thing, unless those that are addicted to gambling that like gambling everyday. Those gambler that do gamble every day often see gambling as a means of survival. Those that do gamble for fun will only do it during there leisure time and not every since they are in for profit but to entertain themselves.

Limiting gambling to once a week or only on weekends is a good idea, but are all gamblers able to stick to it? I doubt it. Very few can bear the responsibility and stick to such important decisions.

If a gambler can commit to specific times for gambling, it will have positive results, whether in terms of time management, reducing losses, or being able to decide to stop at any time and control their habits.

Majority of gamblers are not fools. They understand the mathematic, know that there is a house edge. However, they appear nonetheless since gambling can provide what the straight world cannot provide: condensed possibility. A swing can be gained in thirty seconds that would take months to attain by salary, by the proper channels of economic promotion. That feeling (that of that access to dramatic change) does not mind what day of the week it is.

The weekend only thing is fine provided gambling is truly substitute to your life. Nevertheless, to many it is one of the few places where they can feel like active participants instead of observers of their own economic reality. The poker table is concerned with your intuition, the sportsbook is concerned with your pattern recognition (at least it is supposed to be). That feeling of agency, even if mostly delusional, is intoxicating in this increasingly automated world.

Can you limit it to weekends? Well, you know, as long as you can get other sources of that. When there is enough uncertainty in your everyday life on weekdays, when there are enough moments when your choices affect you visibly... then gambling can remain recreational. When your week is predetermined outcomes (Same commute, same paycheck, barely making same bills) then asking gambling to remain in its weekend box is like hunger to present itself only at the times of specific meals.

We can play on weekends or on Wednesdays or only in September... It all depends on the person's will. And of course, it also depends on the availability of money. If observing such temporary self-restrictions is incredibly difficult for a person, then he already has a gambling addiction, perhaps in a mild initial form. This means that such a person must necessarily observe self-restraint, just to prevent his weakness. Because any addiction does not bring anything good to a person.

I personally believe this can only be done on weekends, because if we talk about free time, we probably have free time every day. I've rarely gambled lately. When I was determined to improve, I would gamble a maximum of three times a week. But now I only do it on weekends, and even then, I do it occasionally because I'm no longer addicted, so I understand the concept of gambling just for fun.

And if I've succeeded in gambling only on weekends, perhaps the most difficult thing is not stopping when I win or lose. Sometimes I forget to stop when I win, even though it's actually making me a profit. But when I lose, I tell myself not to prolong it.

Limiting gambling to weekends is possible but only if the person has a strong sense of control and discipline gambling as entertainment should ideally fit into your free time just like watching a movie or going out with friends it should not interfere with your work rest or responsibilities so restricting it to weekends can make it more enjoyable and safer. However this is easier said than done because the moment you start to win or lose regularly the urge to play again grows stronger some people find it difficult to wait until the weekend and end up gambling during the week too that’s when it starts to become a habit rather than entertainment.

To make it work you have to create structure set a clear boundary like only betting on saturday night games or limiting your balance for the week if you lose it early you wait until the next week this helps stop impulsive decisions and gives your brain time to reset from the thrill of gambling. Also weekends naturally carry a more relaxed mood you have time to analyze bets enjoy the game and walk away without rushing that’s the healthy balance gambling should have the key is to treat it as something extra not something essential when it starts taking space in your weekdays it’s no longer just for fun it’s becoming dependency so yes weekend gambling is possible but only for those who can stay disciplined about it.

It seems like an obvious question and most people would naturally gamble on weekends as that is their free time. If you're doing anything every day there is a good chance you're addicted to an unhealthy degree and probably want to cut back on it. The trouble is when you've reached the point of addiction it is extremely hard to pull back and you have seemingly lost that ability to control yourself so you might need to cut it off completely for a long time until that control returns

I also apply this method when gambling. The essence of gambling is as a form of entertainment in my spare time, a way to relieve the burdens of life. I can feel the burdens of life disappear for a moment when I gamble. My focus in gambling isn't on achieving big wins, but on the joy & excitement of gambling. For me, it feels like I'm releasing the burdens of life. It may sound ridiculous, but that's how I feel.

Entertainment is not meant for on only weekends, it is a daily affairs and that is why gambling can't be channelled to only weekends, we have workers that are always off work within the week who are also gamblers, do we now say they shouldn't gamble or have fun as they wish, also some games are played within the week not weekend, we have being given freedom to live our lives the way we want it and so gambling should not be limited or restricted but be free to everyone at any point in time.

Gambling on weekends happens because players want to unwind after a hard week and everyday problems. But how exactly this happens matters. For example, if a player gambles with alcohol and has no intention of controlling risks or their emotional behavior and constantly loses, then of course, one might say they may have an addiction. But if I don't play every weekend, but only when I see opportunities or good odds, while maintaining my strategy and controlling my emotions, then I don't think I have an addiction. Furthermore, it's important to limit your losses per game, so it's important to turn off the game on time.

Gambling without being serious can be enjoyed and this is possible by controlling and having a rational thought. establish loss limits, feeling watch, and select an appropriate time to play in order to avoid gluttony. When all decisions are made consciously, they are all considered more calculated and enjoyable. It avoids spontaneous behaviours as well that may damage money or relationship. We could control and at the same time have a form of entertainment and not be stressed about gambling but rather make it light and fun.

When you are free from work and your family is already asleep, you have some free time. We can call it time to rest. But spending a few minutes or an hour to place bets or access a casino from your phone can also be done. 
If it's to access a land-based casino, a person would definitely need to genuinely set aside their time. But for an online casino, it can be accessed anytime and anywhere. 
It would indeed be better to allocate a specific time for gambling. Because the more often you gamble, in my opinion, it is not the enjoyment that is gained. Instead, it could become increasingly stressful.

This will have different meaning to different people because we are not even the same people with same free time. Person like me that has been away from morning and coming back home it's almost night here will now say I want to gamble now, unless I want to give money to casino for free, I should not be gambling unless it's weekend. I can gamble comfortably on Friday because it is a short day, I have the whole of Saturday and Sundays and then become busy again from Monday again, the loop never stop.

What I will not advice people is gambling when you are at work, whether it's office work or work that has to do with PC, reason is that I don't know if this common globally, companies dislike when you are very hardcore gambler, they can sack you anytime. If you belong to a financing department and you gamble, know for sure you are not getting work in that department, I have experience this in some companies, only gamble at free time when nobody is around you.

It should be possible. Basically, entertainment is something we always want, but everyone usually knows when they need it. The key is not to force it, and to do it only when they have the time.

This means that if we truly view gambling as entertainment, then limiting it shouldn't be a problem, just like we treat other forms of normal entertainment, like going on vacation every month or other forms of entertainment.

If, for example, a gambler gambles every day, even all the time, I think it's safe to say they're addicted. This means they're not using gambling as entertainment but rather as a way to earn money.

Most league matches are played during the weekend. That is when I bet, not only on the weekend but also during times when there is actually a comfortable match for me to bet on.

Your topic content is directly pointed to casino players. Those who spend time playing slots, roulette, and crash games. It is advisable, they should only spend their free time gambling, not the time meant for work.   

If it is considered for entertainment on weekends then it will depend on the time of a person. It is not enough to play this casino game alone, every person has to do various things in their daily life. I personally try to play the game if I get time between my work and on holidays. It is never limited to weekends but if I have two days off in a week, the chances of playing the game on those two days are more and from my point of view, I play more games then. Holidays are the best days to play the casino for how much enjoyment. If it is not for addiction but for enjoyment then I think it is best to choose the time during holidays and leisure to play the casino.

It is not necessary for me to limit myself only to weekends because I can place a bet during the week, like I did now when Ukraine played against Iceland, and on the weekend I will most likely place a bet on Real. So I place bets rarely, I do not think about limiting them only to weekends, I can place a bet during the week, and I also can avoid making bets for several weeks if I cannot find a good one.

I never see gambling as a form of entertainment. Maybe gamblers initially enter gambling for entertainment but once they get addicted to it, many times it is seen that they start spending most of the day gambling and this can stop their income. As a result, they start falling into financial trouble. A person basically gambles to win at gambling. I will tell those who say they are gambling for fun, can you really quit gambling after having fun? In the afternoon, most gamblers will answer no because if someone enters gambling even for fun, then once it becomes an addiction, they cannot get out of it.

That’s when we are really suppose to be gambling, if you want to gamble, you are suppose to do that during your off time. I see no reason why you should be gambling during your work time. If you are planning to gamble, then do that after your work hour. I do gamble mostly whenever am back from my work, so mostly I gamble in the evening time.

We all are completely different, and we all have schedule for things which we do. We might be gambling for fun, and still gamble everyday, not necessarily until you gamble during the weekend before it shows that you are treating gambling as entertainment. You can decide to gamble whenever you are free.

If am free only during the weekend, then I can decide to gamble by then alone, I gamble whenever am free and I want to gamble, I don’t have any specific time which I do gamble.

I believe it all depends on the person's way of life how he or she schedule their daily activities. Because for me it's much more better you gamble anytime you fill the urge to win  Like you said it's all about entertainment .It's more like you telling a child to avoid TV and read their books until weekends even when he or she goes to school for a complete week. No it's wrong. For me  the child has the right to have fun by watching TV entertainment, even if it's for 2 hours before bed time it's still something. However if you say weekends yes, that might actually work for most gamble's because not everyone has free time on weekends. That's just it.

As long as you are doing it moderately and in a way that doesn't affect your finances then you are good. You can even gamble during the week if you are disciplined this is nothing to worry about. There are people that gamble only on the weekends and still gamble irresponsibly, so it's not really about when you gamble, its about how you gamble, this is what makes sure you don't gwt affected

If gambling can be accepted as entertainment, then gambling can be used as desired. Now that I have accepted gambling as entertainment, I can use gambling as I wish. If I want to gamble every day, I will gamble once a week, that will be the case, and if I want to gamble once a day, that will be the case, and if I want to gamble several times a day, that is also possible, that is also accepted as entertainment. So when a person accepts gambling as entertainment and uses a very small budget for gambling, then he can use gambling as he wishes.

What's your point? You gamble with no limit because you gamble as you wish?  :-\
IMO, when you gamble for entertainment purpose, you won't gamble excessively. You only spend small money for fun only. It doesn't mean you gamble as you wish. But you gamble with no any target and no any pressure.

It means you don't have a fixed gambling pattern. Sure, it is up to you. You can gamble daily, weekly, or monthly. However, I think people who gamble for fun, they probably won't gamble in a daily basis. CMIIW

First of all , majority of those who see gambling as a career most likely do turn out to be those who gamble daily.
A working Class who is busy with his daily jobs, either working for the government or a private firm might find it exhausting to gamble on a daily basis.

Those who gamble daily, most likely end up trying to take gambling as a tool for poverty alleviation while those who don't,might most likely gamble for the love of the game (passion), to feed their prediction or analysis ego and so on.
In summary, gambling could be seen as entertaining  and be limited to weekends too but it depends on the motivation of who's involved.

I don't know about other countries, but here in my country, most gamblers are actually poor people looking for a way to alleviate their poverty, and they think gambling is the easiest way. Very few gamble for recreation.

Those who believe gambling can save them from poverty don't gamble just once a week or on holidays. They gamble whenever they have the chance or can get any small amount of money to gamble.

I think that is true in every country, not just yours, all poor people gamble to make money, to escape poverty. No one gambles for fun, and that is sometimes true even for rich people. They also do not gamble for fun but to make extra money, that is why many rich people also go bankrupt because of gambling.

Even poor people gamble in a disciplined manner such as only gambling on weekends, holidays and using only small amounts of money. I don't consider it entertainment either.

In my country, there have been many cases of rich singers and celebrities going bankrupt and having their careers ruined because of gambling. It can be said that they gamble for greed, to become richer, not for entertainment.

It depends on the gambler because as a gambler that normally treat gambling as an entertainment would always gamble on his own free time. But without any doubt I think weekends are more preferable for better entertainment, because that's when most gamblers normally have time and also you can be gambling and be having more fun while watching the games. Although many gamblers like to gamble every day, but if you ask me I would say an entertainment gambler don't need to gamble every time.

Well, everyone have the right to make their choices which they think it's suitable for themselves, there are some people that gamble only on weekends due to their works factor, which they only have off-days on weekends while there are some that do have free times in their jobs like a couple of hours each day, which they may use that opportunity to gamble.
Though gambling sites are designed to be open every 24/7 just like the way this forums like Bitcointalk, Altcointalk, etc. Which enables everyone to get access to it at any given time of their choice but due to other activities, we set schedules when we should post and do our daily activities as well likewise gambling, it's also important for people to set schedule on how they should gamble because it will really help them to see gambling as a game of fun and entertainment and also support them to gamble within their budget.

I can easily limit gambling to weekendw only or gamble even more rarely. If gambling would be more frequent for me, for example every 2-3 days, than would not be an entertainment anymore. That would be a hobby. I also think that I woukd get tired of such frequent entertainment.

To be clear, gambling as entertaining or gambling on weekends does not mean I would only place 1 sports bet and wait or play couple of quick games and leave.

How long can such a person play every day? And I think it is not that important whether this person has a job or is unemployed. If they play every day, they will very quickly understand how good they are at gambling. A few losing weeks or months will be enough for them to want to stop, instead of making money, they keep getting losses. Playing every day is not that simple.

The truth of the matter is, there are some person's who only gamble on weekends their off days from work, and I'm a typical example of those who gamble only on weekend, although I also gamble within the week, but when the need arises for example during the world cup qualifiers I was staking bets, because most of the matches we are played within the week, but when it comes to premier league matches and other league matches I only place bet on those league only on weekends because weekend is when I have all the time to have fun, chill with family and friends and do all manner of things, and you can also agree with me that most of the big clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester city, Arsenal, Liverpool and so on mostly play their matches on weekends so for me I believe that weekends are when you will entertain yourself the more through gambling and other things. Although there are also some persons who gamble on a regular basis not because they are addicted to gambling, but because they take gambling as their source of income so for that reason they have to gamble on a regular basis to enable them meet up to their daily living, since gambling has become the source of their income.

I can limit myself to placing bets only on weekends, but considering that most European teams play twice or three times a week and the fact that I prefer to place my bets a few hours before the start of those games, I'll be missing out on at least half of them... In addition to that, researching/studying those few games usually only takes an hour of my time, so with proper time management, I can easily place those bets before or after my work.

Actually gambling Really is entertainment but also a source of making money too.limiting it to weekends only has to do with individual schedules if you are a business person or a 9 to 5 job person you can fix a limit on it because of how busy you are with your own day job.there are people who don’t work gambling is there sources of income that is there job they leave for it.they feed there family with it.so they are always betting one way or the other everyday to make something out of it.so my own opinion I feel it has to do with an individual decision to make on how you can limit your gambling spirit.

I can also do it, gambling only on weekends. However, I personally prefer it without a set time. In other words, I gamble as flexibly as possible, whenever I want, as long as I have limits.

So, when I feel like gambling and I still have a budget, I'll gamble whenever I want, including sports betting. I might even go a week or more without gambling because I'm busy. The point is, when we can be responsible with our gambling, we can gamble anytime without being tied to a set time. However, when there are such time constraints, I think it diminishes the enjoyment of gambling.

I think it can be done when you gamble only in weekends and you have free time that you enjoy spending this free time by gambling in your favorite games. This is when a person is not addicted to gambling and maybe he only enjoys gambling by drinking alone at home during weekends or going out in a local casino to chill during weekends. Gambling is like an escape from reality as it increases your dopamine, it makes you feel good for the moment but over the long run it makes you feel bad. So it is achievable for people of such range, people who are not addicted, an addicted person can have this as an objective if he wants to quit as you cannot quit directly in gambling.

Those who are busy with work rarely consider gambling as a career; they see it as entertainment or as an opportunity to make a life-changing win by simple luck.
But a career in gambling is out of the question for a worker.
Anyone who decides to make a career out of gambling must somehow have a good economic starting point, otherwise it is practically impossible to get started.

Once upon a time, I only had time to enjoy slots on weekends because I worked long hours during the week. It was a tough time, and I loved spinning the slots on Saturday and Sunday evenings. Even after I was able to quit my full-time job, the habit of only playing on weekends remained. Playing online casinos on weekdays seemed somehow wrong to me back then.
I'm glad things turned out that way, because I know many gamblers struggle with the urge to play absolutely every day, weekdays and weekends alike.

We are completely free to make the choices that we like best. i am a supporter of individual personal freedom, being an anarchist by nature.
However, your freedom must not harm others, another law that goes around in our environment, the anarchist environment

Can we at some point still feels entertained when we play weekend games and all we had was losses, there is nothing to proof that weekend games are the best and they prevent gamblers from any abuse or unhealthy use of privileges.

People will not also accept to only gamble on weekends, because due to some peoples preference, weekend use to be more engaging for them when it comes to business aspects, better to have it the way it has always been, that everyone should choose when and which day of the week they want to gamble.

Believe it or not, there are probably millions of gamblers who only gamble on their day off, and it is not an uncommon thing to do. That being said, of course, different people will have different responses to gambling, some will have a hard time sticking to only gambling during their day off, and some will have no trouble online gambling during their day off. Bottom line is, while there are a lot of people who might have trouble only gambling during their day off, there are also a lot of people who have no trouble only doing it during their day off.

Gambling is a completely different matter for those who play it for entertainment. Many times it is seen that many people first start gambling for entertainment, but at some point they become addicted to gambling while playing for this entertainment. Gambling addiction is a very bad thing. At some point, it is seen that while playing gambling under the guise of fun, at some point they become so addicted to winning that their family faces various problems. Gambling for entertainment is definitely possible, but we have to be careful that this entertainment does not turn into gambling addiction, otherwise it will be very harmful for us. There are many families who have problems in their family due to this gambling addiction. They are not able to fulfill their responsibilities properly in the family, they are constantly affected, and at some point they become destitute due to being affected.

Setting limits is easy, but maintaining discipline is difficult. In certain games, staring at a gaming screen can even trigger an excessive dopamine rush, which can last for days. This is where your mental toughness is tested: resisting the urge to return to the casino screen sooner than planned.
I wouldn't say this is easy for everyone to implement, depending on the type of gambling they enjoy.

I don't think it can be done by online gamblers; most probably it could be maintained by offline gambling. Gambling for entertainment looks like a joke to me, because I think less than one per cent of people gamble for fun. It's just a self-satisfaction for gamblers that they aren't addicted to gambling. Those gamblers gamble occasionally on the special occasion; most likely they take it as entertainment.

I pretty much agree with OP; those who treat gambling as entertainment would gamble at the weekend. Gambling every day looks like addiction to me; gamblers wouldn't limit it only to weekends. Entertainers would limit their gambling on the weekends; they take it as fun.

It’s not really a problem, and it can be possible. If we only get more free time during the weekend, then why not? It’s our choice anyway. It’s not about restricting ourselves from gambling but about learning how to manage it properly.

However, this never says that we are safe from overspending. It might happen that we spend more than the usual amount we spend. Because most of the time, when we have long free hours dedicated to gambling, we have more possibilities to spend more. Instead of keeping gambling as a simple form of entertainment, I’m worried that changing our schedule might actually become the start of addiction.

People are free to choose when and how they want to gamble, and that’s the reality of modern life some prefer weekends because that’s the only time they’re off work while others can spare a few hours every day to play a few rounds gambling platforms being available 24 hours a day make it easy for anyone to join whenever they want but that’s also where the danger starts because without self control it’s easy to get carried away.

Having a personal schedule is one of the best ways to stay disciplined it helps to treat gambling purely as entertainment rather than a daily habit just like reading a forum or watching a show setting limits keeps it fun and prevents emotional or financial stress it’s not about restricting freedom it’s about creating balance. Freedom always comes with responsibility everyone can choose what suits them best but those choices shouldn’t harm themselves or others in any way that’s why being mindful of time and budget while gambling is important you can still enjoy the fun of it while keeping your peace of mind and stability intact.

of course, you can only gamble when you're free. Therefore, if are are free during the weekend, you should enjoy the fun, if you're not free doing the weekend, you can gamble during the week and gamble responsible. It's when you're gambling without self control that it will affect you emotionally and psychologically.

Gambling is difficult to use only for entertainment. I personally do not play gambling only for entertainment, it involves money, so it is done separately and with financial preparation along with mental preparation. If it is really for fun, then it becomes a habit to play in leisure time as when I started gambling it was limited to entertainment but not limited to fun with increasing losses. Sometimes I would gamble online on my phone when I had a little time at work.

As I got busy I reduced the amount of gambling. After being busy during the week I spend time gambling on weekends to earn money through alternative sources. Even I do not follow any fixed time limit for betting, I gamble by betting on ongoing matches and that in my leisure time.

I set a limit on the amount of money I can spend on gambling, but now there is completely unrestricted access to online betting platforms. In the past, I would often log into these platforms during work hours during small breaks, telling myself it was just to switch my focus. But it could easily pull me in and distract me from my main tasks. As a result, the planned assignments weren’t completed, and the time was essentially wasted. At one point, I became really angry with myself and decided to restrict my gambling time to weekends and only after my priority tasks were finished. Now I’m happy with this decision.

And why should I limit having myself entertained to weekend only? Why won't I have fun after daily work? Aside the monetary profits attached to gambling, we all agree that it kills boredom and desperation. I'm not talking about gambling addicts here because it obviously add to their already exist problem. If gambling truly help us get over stress and still stand a chance to win some money, why do I need to limit it to only weekends when we normally work every day and get tired every day? Weekends are in fact a day to take a break from virtually everything including gambling if possible and give yourself a desire rest after all the stress during the week. It makes more sense if the idea is to not gambling everyday or during the work time but limiting gambling to a day you're supposed to rest is not a welcome one in my opinion.

Gaming is a form of entertainment too, also watching movies, after a long day at work why can't i rest on my couching and watch some movies? Or play some good multiplayer games?..

It doesn't have to be the weekends, unless your free time only occurs on the weekends, mine doesn't, most of the days I always have some free time in hours, enough to watch movies or to play games or maybe even gamble.

I believe there are gamblers who only gambles on the weekends and that is because the weekends is the free time or day they got at work, rather than risking their jobs by gambling at work they choose to do so on weekends only.

Mostly sports bettors, because if they don’t have work they actually have time to watch the game and bet. That’s what you call real entertainment -- you’re watching the game you’re betting on, and I’m sure they’re putting a decent amount since it only happens once a week or on weekends.

But for most of us who play online casinos and slots, that can be done anytime. And sometimes it gets too time-consuming that we don’t even notice it’s already making us unproductive in our other work. That’s why we have to manage it properly. It’s entertainment, it shouldn’t be messing up more important tasks.

Gambling during the week can be said to be limited to those who are busy on other days. But those who are not busy on other days of the week can play at any time. The job I do here has enough time to gamble even after working every day. I do not gamble as a pastime, it reduces the mental stress of the day and diverts my mind, which is very beneficial for me.

Sincerely,it signifies that you're in control of your Gambling habits.If Gambling is for entertainment then it should have boundaries therefore gambling on weekends keeps your activity steady and balanced.Less time gambling,less money spent especially when you're being specific with the rules you place for yourself.These small steps can actually prevent impulse gambling.

I actually don't see gambling as a source of income, because it is not reliable source of income it's essential to view it as an entertainment and a way of having fun, not a financial strategy. Many people underestimate the risks and overestimate their chances of winning, and it can lead to financial problems or difficulties. It is actually very important to set boundaries while gambling, because setting a clear boundaries and prioritising responsible gambling practices can help a gambler to avoid chasing losses which can lead to debt or any financial difficulties.

Limiting gambling to weekends works if you truly treat it like entertainment. A fixed schedule helps you avoid chasing losses and keeps your bankroll stable. Setting a small, pre-decided budget also prevents weekday impulses.

Do you find it easier to control your play with a time rule or with a strict budget rule?

That's the key. Those with truly strong discipline can gamble wisely, such as only doing it on weekends and not forcing themselves to gamble during work hours. I used to be like that it was difficult to resist the urge to gamble, so I would gamble without considering the situation. But now I don't anymore, because gambling just once a week is doable, and the key lies in our own discipline.

Most people who gamble can be said to act similarly even though they know the outcome, and this becomes impulsive. But that's normal, as I've experienced it myself. And over time, perhaps they'll realize their actions were wrong, as I was too. I'm very confident that I can now be disciplined in gambling, both financially and time-wise.

It could depend on how the bettor arranges their bets, but the problem is that not all matches take place on weekends, there are matches that take place on weekdays or weekdays, so bettors may be able to place their bets on matches that they feel are the most profitable or according to their analysis, without having to always place bets on every match available. That way they can avoid betting more often and limit it to certain times.

I think that if we gamble for entertainment and fun, then it can be done at any time, but those who are busy with work can do it on holidays, it is convenient for them. If a person gambles every day for fun, then I will call him addicted because playing every day of the week is the work of an addicted person. In that case, if he plays two or three days a week, it can be for fun, but those who play constantly have lost control of themselves, due to which their mentality has changed. If a bet is made for entertainment for a long time or for a week, then of course it will be made for fun. So that even if you lose money, there is no emotion, but if you lose and win, it can be played as entertainment, in that case, in my opinion, placing a bet once a week will be fun.

Already right from time weekends has always been my favorite time because I'm always in for the fun and entertainment with only what I can afford to lose, so don't gamble everyday. Honestly, gambling on weekends seems to be the best way to overcome frequent losses in gambling because you wouldn't lose much, and there's no how you compare the fun with week days, it's not the same at all, although it depends on gambler because our working days are not always the same.

There are always other sides to view this because gambling is meant to be for fun and entertainment though we also understand that there is money attached to it which is what get people messed up with their finances. When you keep your gambling to just Saturdays and Sundays, you will gradually start seeing those two days as your gambling holiday and when you wake up with your phone battery full and no workplace in the weekend, then suddenly you begin to feel today is my day let me enjoy it. That long free block is what makes you end up playing longer, chase more and before you know, you blow the whole week budget in one Saturday afternoon in the name of gambling on weekends.

You might be playing 5k daily games for instance or some days 5k and some you don't even have the time to play but you must have capped your daily expenses on gambling at 5k then suddenly you feel like adopting the weekend only games and something in your mind will be like since it's only today, let me take my time and blast my attempts and before you realize it, you've spent way beyond what you would spend on a normal. So it is not like moving to weekend only bets is not good oo, but it in fact requires more of your discipline than even the daily games because your mind will be like it's only once or twice a week so let me target something big and before you realize you have blown up your funds.

You can restrict yourself to weekends only, but then you may end up playing the whole day and spending much more than you wanted. So I think that you should not limit the days you play, but set a money limit you want to use for playing. Let it be a weekly limit and divide it by the number of days you want to play. This way you can play whenever you want, and it does not matter whether it is only weekends or not, but you will not exceed the limit you set.

Gamblers feel more excitement if their favourite matches are going live on the weekends, why is that? Because the house and neighbourhood will be full of the owners presence, meaning the matches will be more interesting and not boring, match makers have this idea for fixing matches on the weekends too, they understand the game.

Many people works in the office or companies from Monday to Thursday and some from Monday to Friday, they will feel more relaxed and do whatever they want on the weekends, watch matches together with their families and friends or get on a casino and have a full blast, this way they will be able to be responsible about gambling, it is an advantage

If we are to see it that we should consider gambling on our free days, there some persons who's free days are mid week, so such person will not be gambling by weekend. some also does work shift so they will be able to gamble only on free days and not on days where they are not a particular time of the week just like the weekends you did suggested. It is actually very possible to gamble weekends as a control measure like you did suggested since it is considered as an activity for entertainment only because that is the time of the week we happen to see many gambler people have time to rest from their works and would want that entertainment and relaxation.

For some persons it will be hard to make such limitations meanwhile for some others, they may and will find it very easy to just do that moreover weekends are the time you have a whole lot of games to pick form, thereby availing you the variety with almost no limitation to the much you can pick with a further increase in your wining chances.

Truthfully it's actually easier said than done, that's why people shouldn't just spout out motivations about wanting to stop or reduce to just weekends, life's doesn't work like that, you decision can only hold water if you actually back it up with discipline, if you can discipline yourself well enough to avoid gambling until it's weekends and then maintain over a couple of weeks then you might actually be able to sustain it as a habit, the chances of this succeeding depends entirely on the individual as different people have their different ways of being able to pull through difficult situations.

I guess it can be difficult for some because not all of us work a 9-5 5x a week. Some of us have more flexibility and it can lead to more free time which allows for more time for gambling. Some people can insert gambling time even when they are working which is pretty dangerous depending on the job itself.


If you’re really busy, it’s hard to even find time to gamble. Unless you want to forget about all your responsibilities and just gamble. Just remember your priorities and finish what’s supposed to be done before you gamble, Focus is key. 8)

The convenience that should be very paramount as part of discipline in gambling should not be limited to days it should the convenience should be proportional to free times which could either comes in days, weeks or even months, the point is to play save and enjoy every moment to whenever you decided to gamble without any form of compulsion but as a value placed on convenience of your time that will not affect your other areas of living, I can't put myself in any pressure to gamble over weekends simply because their much game available if the weekend doesn't match with my current situation then the weekend games will pass without me gambling.

This is most often the case for those who work Monday through Friday, but I don't see any difficulty in placing a bet in the evening after work on any day if there's a good match. On the other hand, I'd say it's a bad idea if you want to gamble every day, and if it's not just one bet but other games that can keep you busy for a few hours. If gambling is a pastime, I think limiting it to weekends might be the right decision, you don't need to dedicate too much time to a few bets.

Most people who don’t have a gambling problem are able to limit it to weekends only or when they are off work or at an event etc.

If you can’t control yourself and find you’re gambling excessively then it might be a good idea to seek help.

Gambling is a lot of fun but many people use it as a source of income to get big wins. Gambling is not mainly used on weekends, it should be used when a person has free time and at that time he wants some indoor entertainment, then he can play gambling games for entertainment, but I don't know how many people gamble for such actual entertainment. Everyone has the intention that there will be a big win from here. So now gambling has become a place of income from entertainment.

As a person who loves freedom, I can only agree with you.
But in some states, the state decides for you and I don't think that's right

Free will is very important, of course it cannot be applied to everything, you are not free to kill another person
However, personal freedom, if it does not harm others, is sacred to me.

For those who gamble casually, they can restrict days they gamble. These ones can set weekends for it. We can't say the same for those who see gambling as something that can lift them out of their current financial situation. These ones see gambling as a form of job and they participate in doing so on daily basis without ceasing.

Truth be told, it's good to gamble when one isn't under any form of work stress or fatigue. Weekends are therefore a great time for it, away from the preying eyes of work colleagues or employers.

In this case, gambling is no longer a fun thing for them but rather some kind of a job that they will have to do every day to make money (or lose). The more we think like this, the more we are bringing gambling to another level, and the more we ruin its purpose. In the end, to become responsible is not difficult if we carry the right mindset about gambling. But if we are into the opposite goal (getting rich), we will not just incur losses, but at the same time, we will make our gambling journey unhappy.

I agree with you. It would be better for gamblers to make a habit of gambling on weekends if they do not want to get addicted. Most folk have to be busy for daily income and are naturally tired at the end of the day. Those people will need rest so that they can work again the next day. In some cases I prepare in advance to bet on important matches. I think gamblers can bet on any day if they have the intention of betting on sports. I personally avoid gambling every day and set a budget considering my financial capacity.

In fact, gambling is s great entertainment community and it is actually something we have do on our free times, therefore without much  argument, I will definitely make it a week ends activity. As you might have observed, most games take place on the weekend, like football, basketball and others, they are usually played on the weekends and that is when we are supposed to meet friends for the funs. I think that weekend should be enough for every gambling activities even as a discipline gambler.

As far as able to control during sessions it can save from making deposit many times. But if that gambler betting on slot or crash game, and he not able to control himself, even just gamble only on weekend, still have the potential to gamble as much as possible even they experienced losses. For weekly betting, the most recomended is sport betting and choose only match from his favorite team/player. With this, he wouldn't breaking his limit and easier to control.

I would never recommend anyone to gamble while working because it will only distract us from our main work as well as from gambling. We can't really focus on both things. Our mind should be focused on just one work at a time so we can give our best. I would prefer gambling after coming from work so I can have my mind focused and not really think about any other work.

Mostly on weekends, I spend a significant amount of time gambling but that is because I love to gamble while making money. Gambling is more like a entertainment for me because I can enjoy the game and make my own predictions which can even make me get profits if I am correct. So this will challenge my brain and I will be way more interested in that specific game.

Is entertainment ment for weekends? You can choose to have a spared time out of your busy schedule to use just to ease off the stress of the entire days work and stress. Offcourse life can be very stressful and full of much hurdles. We go out to face different things and challenges on a daily basis. It is only fair that we look for ways to ease off the stress on a daily basic.  This will make us forget all the days troubles, enlightened and refreshed for a new day ahead. And enraging in gambling can Offcourse help you take your mind.off all the encounters you have had during the day.
So wether weekend or weekdays you are good to go.

Why not possible? Anyone who isn't addicted can do that without any problem.

Some of the users we see here made it as their regular habit to gamble almost everyday but you no need to be like that one, you can simply choose to gamble on your holidays and just go back to your normal boring life on Mondays. :P

Some are clear cases of addiction, while some are a thing of occupation. Do you know that some people take gambling as their job occupation? They spend time and hours at the betting office, while those online spend time with their gadgets playing games, just to make sure they get something out of the games they play. These sets of people spend quality time playing games because they do it for a living, while the other categories of gamblers are working class or the business class, who spend little time only when they are free or less busy at weekends.

I hope that will happen, unlike my friend who ended up in addiction. But I have to say that setting a limit is quite difficult if you have a lot of free time, especially if you are facing your computer the whole day. I'd see many gamblers struggling with it, and I realized that it is better not to make our weekend a gambling session. We better try doing it every day, at least we have limited time as well. Or not just to focus our minds on gambling at all, and this is possible if we make our lives busy with sports or other activities.

If someone thinking difficult to set a limit for gambling, the only way he can do with locking wallet such as converted to staking USDT for several period. If dont want to staking crypto, the only way just stay away from mobile banking or let family to handle money. In the past I sent all of my money to my wife to prevent me betting with no control, this is works for me.

If we treat gambling as an entertainment that sure, we can limit it just to weekends where we can chill poolside having a chill bear and watching the game to enjoy our bet. This can be done only on weekends to relax our mind and we can refrain from gambling on weekdays. This will make gambling as one of our relaxing partner but not a habit so this can be a better way to gamble for fun and have profits in the meanwhile without actually thinking about the profits.

It might be hard but can be beneficial to train our mind in doing so. We all know that excessive gambling is quite dangerous so practicing to gamble only on weekends can be considered as a good practice.

We all need entertainment, as going through the day, especially when working in an office, can be stressful due to work pressure. One solution is to find entertainment. The choice of entertainment depends on the individual, as not everyone chooses to gamble; some choose other activities like traveling, watching movies, or other activities. Therefore, gambling can be considered a form of entertainment if done only once a week and with strict discipline. This way, significant losses or addiction are avoided. However, many people gamble undisciplinedly, resulting in significant losses.

There are some important competitions like the UEFA champion League that are played during the weekdays.. Free days doesn't just surfaces only in weekends, one can also have free time also during weekdays.... that is why I believe that the free time that we get depend solely on the kind of job that we do. There are some folks that work a 9am-4pm jobs. In such case, they can have their free time in the night which can afford them the opportunity to place their bet for champion league matches or even other friendly matches played during the weekdays

It's true that entertainment should be enjoyed during free time, especially during holidays like weekends. Most people typically use holidays as a time to seek pleasure, essentially during free time when all important activities, such as work, are completed.

This means that, in my opinion, restricting gambling to weekends shouldn't be a problem for gamblers, provided they truly consider gambling a way to have fun. However, if they can't limit their gambling time and want to continue gambling whenever they have time, they're likely gambling not for fun but for money.
Anything done excessively means it's a priority for them.

But the fact is not so, there are more people who gamble not for entertainment or to take advantage of the holiday,
but they just become an addict who spends the cost of the holiday.

Gambling should indeed be a hobby that is played in leisure or playing with the family with card games and the like.
But in this digital age everything changes and entertainment that was initially fun becomes a game that can make someone go bankrupt when they can't control it.

When you become an addict, then everything will be different, There are no more holidays or happy days,
all just to play and keep betting and such problems should not happen if you have good self-control and clear goals.

Haha, yes, you're right. Instead of going on vacation, most gamblers spend their entertainment funds on gambling, thinking they're gambling for fun, when in reality, it all ends in stress.

I also realize that online casinos make things difficult to control because gambling is conducted without transparency, which often leads to gamblers being overcome by their desires.

Honestly, I was once trapped in an addiction for several months, and you're right that there was no joy or pleasant days when I was still trapped in an addiction. I spent most of my time stressed out because of major losses.

Entertainment shouldn't interfere with daily requirements. And if gambling is for fun free time becomes the best time. However there are many drivers to keeping up the bet slips, it could be the games available at that time which limits the use of only free times. So betting has to happen on seeing games that makes you think of having all green at the end of the games.

But then to do gambling only on days off should be a simple thing to do. It is about making that decision of only gambling on weekends only online or offline.

Such an incident will remind us that anything called addiction is not good and will make a person miserable and not enjoy what is supposed to be enjoyed.

Gambling can be an interesting pastime if it can control gambling just as a regular game without involving more money.
But people who are too greedy want to make more money from gambling, but instead lose more money on gambling due to addiction.

Once in a position where I initially just wanted to try a new gambling with a small capital,
but after playing and continuing to play I felt I couldn't stop, until I also made a deposit even though it was small.
It made me keep playing which at first just tried and in the end couldn't stop.
Imagine how an addict can't stop and continue playing with all their money, it's a stupid act.

Well this depends on what you gamble on, some people only choose to gamble on weekend games while others have games running the weekdays.... Some persons prefer having the entertainment everyday and not just on weekends and im not referring to those who are betting because of the developed emotional attachement but im referring to people who just want life to be fun everyday. So it depends on the individual really but i get your point though, more like an advice, gamble for entertainment only on weekend...this can help regulate betting for some individuals.

What you said is very true. When someone's gambling interferes with their daily needs, they can no longer gamble just for fun. Gambling during free time is indeed more effective because it will greatly help us avoid gambling addiction. If we gamble continuously, addiction will certainly occur. Limiting gambling to free time is certainly better.

I think limiting oneself to gambling only on weekends is easy for some people who are not yet addicted to gambling, but for those who are addicted, it certainly takes effort to be able to gamble only on weekends.

A person who is Addicted is another matter there's not much that can be done They should be put in treatment to Improve But a person who likes to play regularly can have the game to play on weekends and just a little bit , not too much.

Entertainment is not limited to how frequent we gamble, it is more about how do we deal with our gambling habit. As long as we can enjoy the process (before-during-after) of gambling and it does not give us any negative effects especially if the result is bad, it is still considered as entertainment. On the opposite side, even if you limit it once a week or once a month only but if you cant enjoy it, it cant be said as an entertainment.

I have always seen gambling as a way to have fun, and the time can be anytime, although more often during work off or long holidays. But sometimes, when I really feel like playing, I will still play even if it's not the weekend, while limiting myself by only making a modest deposit or below the amount I usually do on weekends.

Gambling everyday is actually addiction , because why will someone gamble everyday of his life , I alway tell people that gambling requires discipline once you are self disciplined it helps you control your approach towards some certain things, and saying weekends is not still ideal if you discipline yourself to play twice a week probably once in weekdays and  once during weekends it will be more easier because some matches plays in week days or better still pick different matches in a week days and play at once then wait for results , then you can still play the remaining once on weekends with this method it can help you limit your high level of betting , because left for me alone playing on weekends doesn’t sound too good to me , in as much as we treat  gambling as entertainment , we should also be disciplined towards it.

Of course, it's possible, and it shouldn't be a problem if someone simply views gambling as entertainment. I also usually gamble every weekend after spending time with my family or after dinner.

Limiting gambling activities, or anything related to risk management, should be easy if we truly view gambling as entertainment. It's also less likely to overdo it. This means not forcing yourself when you don't have free time. The point is, limiting gambling is easy when gamblers are focused solely on entertainment, not winning.

It is not always easy for gamblers to maintain a schedule. Although it is best to gamble on weekends or in free time, I have never seen anyone who gambles follow a regular schedule. I can gamble whenever I want when I am free. Gamblers should prioritize their work first and then gamble. A gambler can gamble at any time according to their convenience. If someone can force themselves to gamble only on weekends or maintain this consistency, I think that is a good initiative. But in my case, I can't be consistent with this rule.

There shouldn't be limit to what time to bet or restrictions to when or not to bet, because everyone time and schedules are different. Some people are busy during week days while some are busy by weekends.
Beside this it won't take you all day to place a bet, no matter how it is, you can book your bet and later place the at your own convenient time depending on the time for the game.

You are very correct, gambling has always been the reason why they play football all the time not only for fun ,it's is for fun as you said they are supposed to only play game on Saturday and Sundays being weekend so to say it all , football is not just for fun only but for gambling making money out from it ,this gambling has been may career many people depends on it.

That’s understandable most gamblers start with the idea that they’ll only play occasionally maybe once a week or only on weekends but once you get into it the temptation to play anytime you’re free can creep in easily especially when the games are just one click away on your phone.

Discipline is the real challenge here treating gambling like entertainment means setting boundaries and actually sticking to them if someone can limit it to weekends only that’s great because it keeps it in balance with work and personal life but if you gamble whenever the mood strikes it can slowly shift from a casual habit into something that controls your time and attention. For most people the best approach is to set both a time limit and a budget before playing for example deciding you’ll only play for an hour or two and never exceeding a fixed amount no matter how tempting it feels that way gambling stays a pastime and doesn’t turn into a daily routine that eats into everything else.

Not necessarily during weekends only but during your day-off. The OP just use weekends as an example since it’s the regular day-off of employee but the main idea is limiting your gambling on the time which you are available to do it.

I believe that entertainment on gambling should only be done when you just needed it not whenever we have free time.

Personally, I only gamble during my free time if I don’t have any plans to do. It’s my least priority as source of entertainment.

This is one of the main points of the game: don't focus on winning, because some players only want to win, without even a moment's thought as to why they should win and not others. Players who think about the essence of the game, how it works, how the casino makes money from players, and how emotions affect us will be able to control themselves and play whenever they want, maybe just on weekends, or maybe anytime. But generally, playing on weekends is more than enough for me; sometimes I even take a break when there aren't any interesting bets where I can find an advantage.

There is no mandatory time limit for gambling. Leisure time can be arranged differently by the individual. If you want to use gambling for entertainment, then you should do it only if you have free time after properly performing the profession you have chosen to earn money. Leisure time means holidays.

Sometimes I don't wait for holidays when gambling because I finish work early and prepare to gamble while I am at work. It is not a regular thing for gambling. I prepare to gamble on special events/match.

Honestly, I don't gamble every day. I have to work every day to meet the daily needs of my family. I am more tempted to gamble on weekends or during special events/match.

Entertainment isn't only meant for weekends

'9-5ers' and certain business owners might agree with you because of work schedule, but outside that anybody can choose to entertain their self any day
If gambling is entertainment and you can entertain yourself any day when you're free from work, study or business, to me that simply means you can gamble any day

Actually that is some philosophy I used to have with betting and gambling: only to partake on it on weekends, when I had more time off and I did not have to focus on anything related to studies or working. But several people do not have such option because of the nature of the lifestyle they have and keep during years, there are jobs which require them to be available on weekends and with schedules which are so tight that they do not have any other alternative than betting or gambling with the minimum window of spare time they have, regardless whether it is on weekends or in working days.

So even though gambling only on weekends would be the ideal scenario to any gambler, in reality there are millions of gamblers who cannot reach that ideal case and need to reorganize their time in order to gamble and bet through the week, so they continue to keep up with their responsibilities.

Everyone has a different routine and lifestyle so the idea of limiting gambling to weekends only sounds good in theory but it doesn’t always fit real life some people work weekends others have unpredictable schedules and for them gambling might just be something they do in short breaks or whenever they get free time. What really matters is balance not the specific day if you can gamble without it affecting your job sleep or relationships then it’s fine whether that happens on weekends or random weekdays the main goal is to keep it under control and make sure it stays as entertainment not a habit that sneaks into your daily routine.

Discipline is the real challenge here because once gambling becomes part of everyday life it’s harder to stop or take breaks setting clear boundaries like specific days or time limits can help keep it fun instead of stressful.

yes there is no set time for gambling, we can only gamble when ever we are free to do so .For those that gamble for fun or to make profits, they should only gamble when they are less busy. It is only those that see gambling as a means or source of income that will want to gamble at all time.  Gambling is there only hope of making money so they prioritise gambling over every other activities.

There is no particular day that is designated for gambling; I think people choose to gamble on a day when they believe they are free. The weekend is considered a time when most gamblers are free to play their games and enjoy themselves. People don’t choose to gamble during the weekend just because it is a day designed for gambling only. There are some gamblers whose work time is only during the day, but the only time they have to gamble is at night, so it is really about when one has time.

The truth about gambling is that if you have a job that you are doing and you don't depend on gambling as your source of livelihood you can as well schedule yourself to bet over the weekend for you to properly predict your games without being distracted from work in the office, it's only those that depends on gambling that usually bet everyday because they would want to win so as to have funds to sort out themselves for the week.

Gambling on weekends is best for those who work from Mondays to Fridays and by weekends they rest and bet conveniently though people have their routine and how they would want to use it to their benefits even as a gambler there are people that the jobs they do don't give them enough time to gamble midweek so they are only left with weekends to gamble, I think this gambling of a thing is best limited to the individual and when he/she has time, it doesn't necessarily mean it must be weekends or midweek.

Not everyone gamble for fun so it can't be limited to only weekend's most people gamble for survival and for their daily lives,secondly even if gambling is met for fun during the weekends they're several fun things to do so many people won't remember to gamble or add gambling to they scheduled activities for the weekend.
       

  Football matches and other sporting activities are not restricted to just weekends so gambling can't be just for weekend's.

Everyone starts gambling for entertainment. When someone first gambles, they gamble for fun without realizing it. But later, they become addicted to gambling without being able to control themselves. It is better to accept gambling as a fun game. But many people get addicted without realizing it. This addiction can be a cause of harm for an income-earning person. But those who can control themselves always see gambling as fun.

Gambling is complete entertainment for me. So I do not gamble regularly. I gamble once a week, which relieves me of the monotony of the whole week. I go to gamble once a week with my friends. The only rule of our game is that the winner will host the party of that day. We have a lot of fun on that one day of every week. There is no joy in gambling without friends. It is better to accept it as fun without getting addicted to gambling.

Yes, this is also the reason why we must first know about what activities we are actually facing/will face, the reason is because everything is done under the direction of the brain, this means the first thing that must be corrected is our point of view and understanding of the activity, as you said that if for example we understand everything then we will also know that excessive gambling is not good because the casino takes advantage of gamblers who gamble excessively, but unfortunately the object of winning is money which is something we always need and want and maybe this is what makes it difficult for gamblers to control themselves.

Gambling can be limited to weekends, but it's probably best to interpret the term "weekend" figuratively. What are weekends? They're usually Saturday and Sunday. But we know that, for example, in Judaism, other days are considered weekends. Furthermore, you may have a unique schedule, and your rest days may not coincide with Saturday and Sunday. Perhaps, for some, it's best to gamble midweek when, for some reason, they have some free time, and on the weekends, they need to relax with their family.

In my opinion, gambling shouldn't be limited to weekends (Saturday and Sunday). For example, I use gambling to relieve stress (for me, it's a great alternative to drinking). 🍷

Therefore, after a hard day at work, I usually place a few bets at an online casino to relieve the stress accumulated during the day. Sometimes (very rarely), I place bets in the morning to get myself in the right frame of mind for an energetic and active day! When I gamble in the morning, I usually bet on sports rather than play roulette.

However, I certainly bet on sports on Sundays as well (although on Saturdays and Sundays, I usually take the commuter train and go out of town to relax in nature). I once considered not using the internet at all on Sundays (a digital detox, so to speak). However, that idea never came to fruition. It turns out that I can't live without the internet and the virtual world.  Unfortunately...

P.S. I analyzed my online casino website's traffic statistics, and it turns out I play most often on Friday evenings.🙋

Following that statement, there are gambler who use the venue to kill some time and to enjoy while they have spare and not every time they have that opportunity during weekends, it's different opinions from different perspectives of each gamblers who treat this venue as part of their entertainment.

We can't remove the fact that we may hear or read opinions that they can practice their gambling activities every weekends, as they choose to pick that day for theur entertaiment.

Gamblers who can limit themselves to gambling only on weekends are those who gamble responsibly. Of course, not all of them are responsible gamblers because addiction can change their goals, but when they can control their time and only gamble at certain times outside of their productive time, then they are those who gamble responsibly.

Gambling for entertainment is the best approach, but many of the gamblers are not really entertained because their goal is money. I can't blame those who gamble for money, but really that approach will only lead to bad consequences for them in the long term.

Yeah that true, i understand the point the OP is trying to make  but it shouldn't basically be only weekend maybe on one's day off or the days when they're free, left for me I only gamble during match days especially when there are important matches and it mostly falls during the weekends and sometimes weekdays too. So if a match day falls during the weekday and I'm free and have interest in some particular games, ain't I allowed to bet on them cause it ain't weekends? So gambling should be done at once leisure it mustn't generally be weekends only.

It is easy to be done when you only play sport betting but for people playing daily games like slots, dice or poker this becomes a monumental if not an impossible task. This because the fact that they need to play daily increases the dose of dopamine used and makes them want to keep trying. Even if they decide to make it only to play during the weekends chances are high they won't make it as they will be tempted during all the time to play and sometime they may fall prey to such temptation. It is completely different for someone who only plays sport betting and only during weekend or Champions League events, they can make it work to gamble only during such events.

There are reasons why people will want to suggest that people should gamble on weekend basis instead of everyday, the might have considered that many people have more time for themselves in weekends, i think this might the reason for the statement but you also made a good point, free time at anything can also be nice for gambling, i really comprehend what the op meant, I think he actually meant if what some us think about gambling being meant for entertainment purpose is true, then it can be done on weekends only but we should understand that people have their different reasons for gambling, our understanding about gambling differs, some persons gamble for fun and take gambling as an entertainment, some persons see gambling as profit driven stuff, and whichever way you understand something will be how you will follow it, my take on this is, once you are gambling responsibly without being reckless about it, then you are free to gamble when you have the time to do so, it shouldn't be limited to weekends alone.

Basically, a gamble can gamble responsibly if he is experienced in gambling. Without experience, he will never be able to gamble responsibly. There are many gamblers who gamble responsibly and at some point they become addicted to gambling. If they gamble for some reason, then they can gain money. If for some reason they lose money, then they try to gain double the money and become addicted to gambling. Gambling addiction is very harmful for a person. While playing fun games, at some point a person becomes so addicted to gambling that it is very harmful for him, so we have to refrain from gambling addiction. Because a person addicted to gambling is never right for his family, it is always harmful for them.

It's catching fun and being entertained only limited to weekends? Emphatic NO. You can gamble at any time of the day in as much as it's a free time for you not replacing it with time for improvement tasks. Even on weekends there are people who by nature of their job still do work, so for this people should they now gamble on those weekends they should be working  if they have to decide to gamble only on weekends because they're gambling for fun.?
