Well one time I was in the casino. And sorry it was cash no Bitcoin.

I just got there having fun yes I earn dubble the money I had. But I lost it because I played more and more.

But that is gamble to me play to lose your money.

And No gambling is not wrong is just how you deal with it.

It highly depends on how you work your way in gambling, and that's true. If you're an addicted gambler and gamble for the sake and hope of doubling your money or getting high returns from it, then you're doing it wrong. But if you just gamble just to kill time, then you're doing it for recreation and for fun.
I agree with you is not fun if you are addicted to it and ending losing alot of money.
Gambling is for havving fun.
gambling is for earning money, I dont think will have fun in gambling, I prefer having fun playing the game, rather than gambling Cheesy

Most of the people are thinking like you that gambling is for making money but in reality it is not true. Only people like you thinks they can make money from gambling but at the end they will lose everything in gambling. For me it is just for fun and should play once in a while and during this fun time if you may win big money then your a lucky guy. 

I would just like to say that there is a distinction between "gambling" and playing games that require skill, such as "poker."  Many people put the two very different subjects into the same category; however, they don't belong together.  While many people do approach poker from a gambling perspective, there are many who approach it from a technical perspective.  There are ways to have a consistently positive rate of return if one were to apply a stringent set of guidelines to their play.

Now, to answer the OP's question:  Gambling can be a legitimate form of entertainment but if gambling is affecting one's personal life in a negative way, then continuing to do so may be harmful.  There are support groups for such behaviors and I encourage all who believe they may have a problem to seek out those communities.  However, if one has a problem gambling and they sit down at the felt with me, I will have no problem gaming them out of their cash....it's my bread and meat... if I don't win, then I don't eat!

its not wrong at all in my opinion i like gambling too

Yes you gamble for some times and you know when to exit the gambling then it should be OK but most of the gambling will chase down the winning until they lose all their money so it is wrong. Yes even though they are playing with their own money but it is a good idea to gamble until one lose all their money.

It is theoretically possible to make a LOT of money gambling, however the chances are low.
Unless you are gifted genius at gambling games and risk managing your chances of becoming rich gambling is next to none.

OP's question was "is gambling wrong?", not "can gambling be profitable?".

its not wrong at all in my opinion i like gambling too

Gambling for recreation is fine, but if addicts start taking out loans to gamble, stealing money from people etc., then gambling is wrong.

Yah that is scary but I don't play gamble because I want money so bad. I play 50% for money and 50% for fun (with firends)
I see gamble like a old times arcade that was fun. Yes by arcade you just lose money, but in casino or gambling too but if you are lucky you win more money. That is how I see gambling at least.

I understand you are not seeing gambling as a complete wrong thing. You must be a satisfied gambler as you are not always playing for money but only 50% of your gambling. I believe this must be good idea of having safe gambling with out any frustration of loosing money. Because you may get some profits too when you gamble for fun.

In the end you'll loose money. Gambling is more of a form of entertainment than a source of income.

It's not wrong per se. Some people actually know how to make profits out of gambling and made it their living.

People like that are really rare and they know when to raise a bet.

It depends if you are a poker played there is a high change you can win. But poker is a game that you will just lose all if you win so yeah.
But I think gamble is more 50/50 you win or you can lose. So it is not that bad.

Many people  lose the money with gamble, because they see it as entertainment.
Just my personal opinion about that. May be you need to serious in gambling to earn money.

But gambling (casino) is almost the same as arcade. By arcade you just lose money because a entertainment thing.
And gambling (casino) you lose money or you can win is also a entertainment. But I know what you meanif you want to earn money you need to be serious about it and play smart not just give you money away.

I think that it depends on luck most of the time so you can't rely on gambling as a stable source of profit, you are more likelky to loose more than earn benefit.

Apart from gambling being illegal on certain countries, gambling with some of your fortune cookies isn't that wrong. You must use your brains for gambling in some strategy based games (like Blackjack and Poker) so that you wont lose more than you wager on gambling Wink You might consider playing dice but that is purely based on luck factor! I can recommend you one site for dice (betterbets.io) where you can fully forge your luck after completing 1000 bets and the house edge gets lowered to 0.5% for the first 20 bets after activating this feature. Similarly on another gambling site (betcoin.ag), you can win some percentages of "Rakeback", "Lossback" and "Betback" as you level up your performance. So good luck with your gambling life.

I don't gamble but I can tell you from now that gambling is not Beneficial at all , you will eventually lose all and it doesn't matter how much you earn because you will end up losing them all because of GREED.
