Online Gambling: Modern entertainment or highly addictive game?

[Oilacris]

Online gambling bring a lot of comfort and privacy to gambling but this can not be likened to entertainment. Gambling is far from entertainment because the only things that triggers joy and laughter in gambling is winning. Without winning, gambling is all about pain and regrets which can never be in any way regarded as fun.

I was actually evaluating my gambling activities now that I play mostly online and when I was visiting the physical outlets and I realized I gamble more now in terms of the frequency, the time spent and the amount put into gambling. Maybe that is some kind of addiction but I try to be moderate in my gambling so that I don't get depressed. So yes online gambling have taken the business to another level.

The misconception is seeing winning as the only form of laughter. Gambling offers little winning moments to players. Hence, it's hard not to find a session that wasn't filled with losses and a little sprinkle of wins. Holding on those wins as a way to be happy in gambling leads people who seek for happiness in gambling into addiction. Because their source of happiness is seasonal, not constant. And losses causes sadness thereby making the gambler feel sad of himself when the game is concluded without any significant wins made out of it.

The online settings is addictive because of the portability and accessibility of the game. I could remember how glued we were to our gadgets when playing video games. That's the kind of concept the online gambling platforms initiated to hold players to play more and seek for wins. Phones, laptops and another gadget used in accessing the online gambling platforms is something we can use for a long period without feeling tired or the need to stop immediately. So people are expected to get addicted to the lifestyle more like others who are also glued to social media platforms. Which is also addictive.

I do believe that only a few would really be having that kind of real fun seeking activity or something that they could really be able to enjoy on playing gambling but sooner or later on the time that you would be experiencing those loses then that fun and interest would really be that become being desperate and becoming that revengeful on which this is something that most happen for gamblers and this is why they do end up on getting stressed and having that kind of disappointment due to those loses. On the time that those mindset and impressions had changed up then this is where you would really be starting yourself on chasing up your loses. We do know that in the market today there are tons of variations of gambling online casinos or platforms which they can offer into gamblers on where its not really something that could be denied that gambling is something that you could be able to enjoy but when loses are starting to pile up then mood and vibe would be changing up.

No, no, that's not what happens to most gamblers. Most gamblers lose money to gambling eventually, that's true, but they are not becoming desperate or revengeful because of that, they just move on, thinking that will try their luck again next day, next week or next year when it's a trip to Vegas. It's just an interesting experience for them, not a tragedy, when they lose their money. It's because they allocated for their gambling only what they could afford to lose.

As long as it is kept once a year trip to Vegas with a limitation on the total budget to spend, it should be good. Then there are those who go there and don't come back, which is a horrible thing.

For online gambling, the easy access to the site means more regular attendance from gamblers.

It's all there just to make things easier for the addicted gamblers. Those who don't gamble don't care at all about so many casino websites.

        -   I also agree with what you are saying, Then there are still many gamblers who return to gambling, not because they want to recover what they lost in the past. But because it's a habit or it's become a hobby for them,.

If there are others who make it a source of income, we can't do anything about it because it's the only way they see to get money, but the surprising thing is that they find a way to get money so they can gamble.

Guys, gambling's about the rush, right? Incredible excitement, energy, and unpredictability! Yes, losing is frustrating. This is why discipline matters. The finest gamblers have fun without letting losses hold them back. They play smartly within boundaries. Not only the cards you're dealt, but how you play them. Think strategy, self-control. So have fun even when things dont go your way. Finding equilibrium.

Internet, hasnt it revolutionized this game? Made it more accessible. Incredible. greater options mean greater responsibilities. Find the correct locations, recognize the risks, and know when to leave. We're not chasing losses. Exploration, excitement, and enjoyment are key.

In many cases it's far from being funny, to tell the truth. They are asking their friends and relatives for the money, and it starts being annoying at some point. And what is even worse, some of them resort to criminal activity to get money so they can gamble. I always want to say to such people, just take your time to think properly about it, and you'll see that it's not worth it.

They find a way until a certain time when they cannot otherwise find the money anymore and it is this exact moment that changes everything,some resort to illegal activities and some stop and only play when they get some money.The ones who resort to illegal activity we all know how they end up and most of them end up either in jail or even worse dead.That is why I think people need to think before any action they want to achieve and what consequences such act can bring them.

The lower the amount they lose the easier it is for them to move on.

I am not addicted to gambling, I am addicted to a few other things that have nothing to do with money, and I love it, for example online gaming, like PlayStation and multiplayer games? I do this to get me on good mood.

I do this more than using money to gamble online, in fact I get more fun times playing video games than gambling, so having some great times doesn't have to do with money, I wonder how gamblers are getting totally wrecked in gambling.

It is a bad advice for many gamblers when you tell them not to gamble to make money, but this is just the truth, never ever use more than you can see lost when gambling, some amount are better stay the same than losing it all, build less expectations from gambling.

Gambling to make money is actually something that we have probably seen and heard all the time, so many people are starting to get addicted to gambling because of it, there is something wrong with their mindset, why should you gamble to make money when you can just work to make money and don't even have the risk of losing money? But unlike gambling for money, money can be lost and cannot be recovered, although sometimes there are people who try to recover their losses and end up experiencing major defeats and even going bankrupt.

But if people change their mindset to having fun, maybe we won't find many gambling addicts around us, the bad habit of humans is always taking risks just to get big wins without having to see other people playing and losing and even going bankrupt because of gambling, people should aware that a gambler will not be able to win against the bookie let alone win so many bets, that's why gambling should be made for fun and that is good advice compared to bad advice considering gambling as a source of income let alone a place to earn more money or a place to become get rich instantly.

Yes, some players go to Vegas and don't return due to lack of funds. I've read of a man that got to a casino, with his wife just about checking in to the hotel, she received a call from her husband that they'll be going back immediately, he already wagered everything on a slot game. Such experiences also shows how people get carried away during gambling. Gambling is highly addictive, regardless of the settings; online or offline. Online gaming is just an optimized form of gambling that provides the player a casino on his palms, nothing else.

The behaviors and mistakes are similar. It's a modern entertainment I'd admit, because most players also derive fun through online gambling. The wrong aspect of it occurs per player. Generally, to some players, gambling is addictive, and some, it's entertaining. I would add that gambling has its definition embedded on individual players and the definitions are never similar for every gambler. Hence, to me, gambling provides fun and also challenges me to waste time playing games.

       -   In this country, we have noticed that more people have become addicted to online gambling. And it wouldn't have gotten worse if profitable influencers weren't promoted on social media, especially the popular ones or influencers who have millions of followers.

Almost all of them are chronic and have only one goal, and they even openly cheat their viewers and followers. It's okay to gamble online; the only thing that's not good is that minors can see their promotion of online casinos, and then they'll say that they're promoting that there's no loss when you sign up using their referral link.
