Absolutely will and still do gambling and betting, but 100% i will do oit only for fun for community when i watch live on stadium or maybe on some big event like FIFA World Cup... So i dont care about profit anymore if im in yours "Dream condition"

And your name says it all Mr. "God of Gambler" hehe just kidding, well in playing in gambling sites you can contribute to the bitcoin community just like while doing faucets and joining a signature campaign here in the forum aside from mining that is, but as doing it for fun I think you need to be very careful in dealing a game of always fun with gambling because in reality it is really risky.

Gambling is always risky as winning is never guaranteed in gambling, its pure luck and if you are lucky enough on that particular day then you can earn a huge amount even by investing a smaller one.

A lot of people here gamble to become rich, but some do it for fun.

The question is, if you wake up tomorrow with 50 million dollars, would you still gamble for fun, or would you forget about gambling and do other stuff? Personally I think I would still gamble. I do it now, and I know I realistically will never get rich off gambling, because I barely do it and I don't risk much money, just for fun sometimes, to test my luck.
So if I had a lot of money, I would do bigger gambles, but they would still enter in the "for fun" amount (for the new 50 million standard). For example, gambling 1K a month would be irrelevant, and winning with a 1K bet can give you big rewards if you are lucky. It would still be fun, in fact more fun, and it would be as non risky as it is now, in terms of going financially bankrupt.

Same here, if i'm rich, i would still gambling and i gambling only for fun. And for now i gamble and don't care about lose or win, so it's pure for fun. And if i get profit from gambling, it's like a bonus.

I'd gamble more if I was rich but sadly I am not. But if I do become rich in future, I would not gamble from my home in front of the computer, no sir!, I'd go to Vegas, Atlantic City, China etc. where they have the biggest and best floor casinos in the world.

I mean what's the point of being rich, if you're not even going to live your life to fullest?

well i usually gamble with few $ that i have left after buying something, so we can say that i gamble for fun only, but i don't think that if i would be so rich that i would gamble, probably not, because why risk money just for fun? there are better ways to get fun without spending and risking so many money

If i wake up with 50milion.. thats mean im already rich.. well will find another thing to do beside gambling..
I gambling because wanna get rich by quickest way..so now im rich why should i gambling Grin
You are right but that getting rich is just a statement, basically person gets addicted to gambling. You get rich then you start thinking that lets get even more rich which leads to loss and pain. You never for getting rich, remember. Because you know you are playing against a edge and will loose eventually.

Most likely I would answer this question with a yes, but honestly I do not know if this is true because I do not know if I would change if I had a lot of money.
I think I would enjoy my life more and do other things than gambling itself, although it can also be more enjoying to throw with larger numbers of course.

yeah when I became rich maybe I do not need to gamble again. I enjoy with my life at that time.
not just because you want to have fun you do gamble. then out of control and play with all your money.
you could be a poor return for gambling

The good thing about being rich and gambling is that in a real casino you get a lot of perks. Some casinos even fly you in to get you to gamble, You get the room comped with foods and alcohol and everything. Casino doesn't care if you win or lose.

If you are poor, no way would you get that kind of treatment.

I think, if any one addicted to gambling whether they are rich or not but still they will gamble. If people are clear than they will gamble only with some fixed amount for each time otherwise they may end up losing slowly all there money in gambling and later they may not be rich any more. So gamble carefully and don't go for bigger bets. Good luck to all.

Why should I not gamble when I am rich, gambling can gives you a lot of fun and that is very good for your feeling.
But you dont must play indeed with all your money, that is very bad of course, you must have borders for yourself.
Otherwise you are losing to much money and that will be not good.

If it is just fun you want, there a multitudes of ways to have that without losing money. And there ways that are more productive than just gambling. As you say, you lose money doing it. Why not, instead of gambling do sports. It won't lose you money and it is good to your health.

I wont gamble ever if I was rich because the basic aim of is to become rich at any point.
you think after you're rich you will not regret and sad when they lost in gambling?
I think they are rich or not. they will still be sad when they lost in gambling dude.
do not forget that gambling can make you poor in a moment

Gambling is essential in our society to relieve stress.

That's true, but only if we do it on the basis of fun only and not as an addiction, as addiction will always make anyone lose in the end, I mean long term, but really don't know how long...

Gambling is essential to society to  relieve stress, yess that's true, but too much gambling would cause you stress instead of relieving it..

Gambling have nothing with social categories. Everybody love to experience ultimative winning adrenaline, and need for this shocking and pleasant experience is what drives people to gamble.  Feelings of power and invincibility after wins!

I wish my favorite Bitcoin gambling game (battlecoin) was very popular so if I was rich I would do mega big gambles in bomberman games and everyone would trip out at some crazy dude betting 10 BTC in a game of bomberman. It would be cool and people would think it's insane while you have a laugh because 10 BTC for a rich people is like nothing.

I do it now, and I know I realistically will never get rich off gambling, because I barely do it and I don't risk much money, just for fun sometimes, to test my luck.

It would still be fun, in fact more fun, and it would be as non risky as it is now, in terms of going financially bankrupt.

Every monetary investment is a gamble. Every time you trust someone you are taking a gamble. I would definitely gamble if I had 50 million dollars. I find it relieves stress. However, I'd probably gamble my money on supporting the pursuit of animal rights and technological singularity. But I would still play Poker, Dragon's Tale, EVE Online and Heroes of the Storm for fun. Like... Gambling is definitely stressful, but it's something repetitive and gratifying that I can do without drama from other people. Just me and random chance. That said - my betting limit would probably be $800 if I had 50 million dollars. Right now my betting limit is whatever I earn off of faucets. If I were to bet more than 0.0016% of my networth on something, it would either be for a good cause or for a positive EV (e.g. investments).

Edit: Maybe I wouldn't gamble. Because it's very hard to enforce my own limits, and even with my 2mbtc bet limit I ignored that and went and bet 22mbtc instead of withdrawing.
