Any advantages from gambling?

[chanlance]

Let's be realistic here, the ONLY advantages for players are:

1. If you hit jackpot, have lucky streaks, won some big bets etc. in short you earned more money that you invested.
2. You have fun playing despite loses or wins.

That is all. Simple as that.

I like the logic here...
However who has fun losing money

No one, unless you are playing for no money you will never enjoy loses, that would be stupid and even if you play for no money you still wont enjoy loses since you don't gain anything from them.

and the problem with losing.....it gets the better of you such that you are affaid of small odds like 1.01

I like the fun factor. Going out with friends sometimes just visit a casino get some drinks, make a little bets and enjoy yourself.

The ambiance is nice, people are happy and smiling and everybody is getting their little kick of the day.

What's better then enjoying yourself with your friends right?

Yeah, this is quite nice when you gamble in real life... People who slave away at dice sites while also sucking the teets of the faucets all day long and wasting life away is not advantageous at all.  If you have a rainy day and some extra coin you want to gamble, by all means thats fine, but people who sit online and watch their bank roll disappear online is not the way to go.  You just have to make sure you have the time/extra coinage to gamble.

Different people enjoy there free time in different ways like one may be going bar to spend money on drinks and enjoy but some people want to play gambling games. In both cases people losing money but it is different kind of enjoyment that's it. So as long as one know how much then can lose for fun time should be fine but do not chase winnings in gambling.

Another advantage from gambling is that it gives you an opportunity to learn about and improve your maths skills.

I guess gambling can give you incentive to learn more about statistic, also give you some more knowledge into how fairness work and more about how casinos make money

No one will wasting their time just get nothing from doing something. At least you need to win someting although it is 0.01 it is worth to do each day. In a month you will get 0.3 lets say sometimes you will win or lose so in a month you get 0.15++. It is still worth to do

actually statistic is just for fun. most of the people already know the probability is going against them and yet they still bet in hope to win something.

Exactly man and that's a good skill to learn , I have a friend who really hate math and he was so bad , after he began gambling he started to learn more about math and started to calculate the odds of a losing streak ,, etc
in poker games the player should make a lot of decisions and this will develop the way he thinks in order to solve problems
so there are some advantages beside the fun part

Meh the more you know about the statistics and probabilities the less you will want to gamble, anyways 90% of people who gamble here still have no idea how the odds and probabilities work hence why threads like this exist.

If any one want to learn statistics then just google it you will find lot of details for that no need to go for gambling and no one is gambling to learn statistics. I think gambling will give a lot fun if one uses it correctly and during this fun time some time one can make a big money also.

[Mr. Forum]

Trust me I don't gamble but the only advantage I can see in gambling is the fact that you are able to win a very large amount of money with less capital and time. You however need to know that it becomes an advantage only after you have won. Loosing is the most painful thing that you can ever have when it comes to gambling. Another advantage is the fact that you can get other valuable products through gambling, for example when people gamble for bitcoins. Winning bitcoins is a very good thing, it is worth it.

Yeah but people think statistics and probability are boring and when you gamble you find that they are actually not boring at all, of course people could learn by themselves but gambling can indeed make you like math a little bit more.

You're putting people in a job!
Practically employing people through using gambling sites.
Even if it is only one person that you are employing!

What do you mean exactly? Are you saying that gamblers are ''employers''? That's not the case since most people will end up loosing money rather than winning. And if you mean that gambling sites hire employers as in: Mods, admins, etc.. well yeah some of them do but that's not advantageous to people gambling.

Yes, your true. Any good or bad things if it is available at free than people don't bother to look in into it because it is free so they decide is may not be good. If some thing need to pay means every one things, it will be good even though it is bad than free one. This is the problem with people thinking and after losing money in gambling than they will realize it.

The advantage with gambling is that you can multiply your bitcoins within a second but I guess there is much more disadvantages than advantages.

[krunox123]

I saw people discussing only issues of gambling but no one telling about advantage. So many gambling houses are coming up so is there any advantages to player or houses?

As far as I know, disadvantages is more than advantages when it comes to gambling. It is obvious that the house always have more advantages than the players.
The house always win... Unless, you know when to stop gamble.

All houses are online to make profits for them self but not for giving away money to players so we should know we can't beat house edge. At the end we will give our money to gambling house and it is very sure.

there isnt much aside from simple math most people utilize in gambling, i would say 99% of people only go as far as to calculate how likely it is theyll lose to some dumb martingale strategy or a variant of it. with that in mind, youre not really doing any meaningful mathematical calculations. going as far as card counting in blackjack or keeping in mind one's opponents cards in poker could be said to be more complicated though.
