What is GAMBLING?

[HeroCat]

For some people gambling is just fun and playing, for others the way how to make fast profit. The fact is that gambling site owners also make money from players. 

[rickadone]

many people which are also on this forum in bitcoin gambling consider gambling as an investment where they can earn money from playing these games.
and although there is this thing called professional gamblers who are doing the same thing it don't think it is a good idea to go for it as an investment to earn money because of the high risks.

Most would want an easy double of profit baring the mind that they can escape a day of job if they can accumulate a wage in a day via gambling. This was my mind set when i was only making money on pay per post. But i came into mind that you should set aside a money for gambling to at least even your lose. And have the right control of oneself. Because i think other gamblers peoples advice is not always applicable to other gamblers strategy. Because we can all develop our tactics depending on our own observations.

I also keep aside money per week to gamble and the money comes from either campaigns or data entry work. It's about 30% of my earnings which I find safe to gamble. I don't get how do people invest 3-4 BTC in these websites as even if they earn so much, they can gamble smaller amounts rather than use it all in 1 bet. Their gambling strategy is totally different than ours and though I have a part time job, I would never risk like them.

Gambling is fun for someone and addiction for someone, it depends on individual how he takes it and how lightly or strongly believes in it.

I want ask mostly people are saying in Gambling we loss everything, but they are still playing gambling.
WHY?
Then people saying that it is Game and fun so we are playing.
I want ask you, Is it Game so you are playing, otherwise what is Gambling?
1. GAME
2. INVESTMENT
3. BUSINESS 

gambling for us who are only players is a game. but for those who are running the game and are owning the casinos is a form of business or investment that they have made.

in my experience the players can not think of gambling as an investment because of the high risks which are also uncontrollable risks.

Actually there are some people who claim that they've turned a gambling site into an investment by using a custom autobet script. Few of them make a fortune in the long run but most of them just bust after a week or so. Those solid autobet scripts are being sold by the script maker. It ranges around 10k bits up to 25k bits depending on how fast you can make money and how much they've made out of that script.

That's against the TOS of the gambling website and if they are caught, their funds are seized and if the amount they cheated is a huge one, they can fall into legal trouble as well. Also, most of those scripts don't work for everyone and is just a trick that worked for them, not for everyone.

Agreed but if you don't handle it with precautions then it will make your life hell and also make you bankrupt in long run, making you beg on the streets for basic food.

LOL Are you sure about what you're saying? How is it against the TOS and cheating if the website itself gave the codes for the script. And also the devs/mods themselves make a custom script for FREE on their free time to those people who don't know how to make one.

Maybe you were talking about other gambling site but I'm pretty sure that most gambling sites accept autobet scripts as legal to their site because most people know how to make one and the devs are fully aware of it.

Gambling is a form of entertainment to have fun and to enjoy into whatever extra resources you have to spend just for the excitement it is also a past time hobby as long as you have the resources in excess to enjoy it.  With accordance of the limiting factor pertaining to the amount to spend within the common sense not to exceed beyond limits hence winning and loosing is a product acceptable within the fun time frame.  More than the limit beyond the capacity of entertainment is another definition related to the person involved.

It is right, gambling is fun and entertainment but now people want to play to get a big amount, and only one thinking they have that may be they become rich in first term, but when they lost they hate it and the next day they are again playing the gambling, so where is fun and enjoyable thing. it is just we want to satisfied to himself to saying it.
Whenever i m playing gambling i always think that i want to win and some time win it, but i don't say to himself that i m playing because it is fun.

More than the limit beyond the capacity of entertainment is another definition related to the person involved.   So it is not about gambling alone, it is about the person hooked to gambling.  It is more than the habitual gambling because if it is not for the losses then it is for the greed.

For me gambling is an entertainment it was made to be fun like a game of adrenaline, the fun part of gambling is the excitement between winning and losing

i only consider gambling to be a game and nothing more that a game for me.

even if i earn money from my bets that i make while gambling i still consider it a game not an investment!

[DuckKeeper]

Gambling is just a thing were you can put in money to play games that allow you to make more money if you win at those certain games. That is the best way I can explain it.

so basically all depends on their goal of playing gambling. although they initially played just for fun, but if they can not control themselves, I am sure in the end they can be addictive, because they feel they can get a large amount of gambling.

[horace08122]

Gambling is the wagering of money or something of value (referred to as "the stakes") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning additional money and/or material goods.

(that what from wiki)...

but when place the bet, we must think that is the only outcome...lol

Every one saying that gambling is a game, not any other thing, because when we talk about the gambling so we use the word for it and that is a GAME, and nothing more.
Everyone start it to say that i m play gambling no say that i m write gambling or i read gambling only use the word Playing, so we consider it is game.

[Shinpako09]

For me gambling is a game where you take a risk and test your luck and skill on how you can make your money grow. Some are even trying to make a living from gambling.

depends on the type of gamble that you do. some people gamble for fun by playing games like poker or even gamble only only or twice to see if they win. but anyone who gambles long term in hopes of making money is in a bad situation. i only gamble maybe once a week so even if i lose its not a big deal but if i win it feels pretty great.

Gambling is primarily a game. But, when people gets addicted to it, they start to treat it as investment and then everything ends.

For house, gambling is business.

gambling is an oppurtunity that involves risk. it can earn you big and take everything away from you. for some people gambling is a hobby and something they do for fun (like me). i dont lose too much in gambling and i also win a little sometimes
