Most gamblers always want a profit, because most are still short of money. Except for millionaires, who gamble just for fun. Including me, the motivation of gambling is to make big profits. But, just hope because always lose.  Embarrassed

Maybe you need to try a different strategy or a different hobby if you still can. Also having a dayjob in case you don't have one may lead you to a greener pasture than just giving a shot to the moon to be rich from gambling ;-)

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

My suggestion won't be anything different from yours. He must try out some more effective and reliable method of becoming rich. There is no instant way and he cannot be a millionaire overnight. The time someone is spending in gambling in hope of making money can actually give him some if he utilizes it in the right way.

Everyone has their right to choose to play for fun or profit but if someone play for fun then he dont have to worry about money anymore. Even he doesnt need to care about winning or losing anymore. Instead of wishing to be rich from gambling and hope to make alot of money, it is better to play for fun and expect less about winning money

Both I gamble for fun also to get profit but everything in gambling is not sure you take a risk on it. If it's your lucky you can go home with money but if you are unlucky well you will go home nothing and sometimes with debt too.
for me the better gambling game is played for fun because then we will not get any pressure. while if it has a goal to gain profit then we will always get pressure every time. losing all the money we have is the worst risk. you can lose it all and also your beautiful dream will be gone. if you believe then you can get the opposite. luck always comes suddenly but can not be ascertained.
Whether it's for profit or for fun, the most important thing is that we must try to keep us from losing without even winning. Because if we continue to lose the profits we will not get. And for fun, if you do not win though, it's not fun anymore.

That fast shot will always sound better than a job. Who would want to work whole year if they could bet it all on red one night and double the money in one minute.
That is why gambling works. People are dreamers and they always look for shortcuts.

I would prefer to gamble for enjoyment rather than profit, The fast shot that the guy above mentioned is not advisable, I prefer to work 1 year get a salary from 1 year aswell gambling and enjoying poker. I will not bet it all in 1 go, yes the chance is 50/50 but if you lose then you'll feel down and you'll regret that.

yes that is right that most of the gambler want to play gambling for making money, may be very few number of bitcoin users will be playing gambling for fun and enjoyment, because i think that gambling is purely made for the purpose to use short cut for making money, therefore i do not think that there can be fun or enjoyment in gambling without money involve. and therefore i only play gambling for making money and not for fun and enjoyment.

But most of the time you will go home with losses, in that case, I don't suggest you gamble with a borrowed money. If you plan to gamble for profit then it is not a good thinking and tries to change that thinking before you lose even more money on these games. These games are designed to give us more thrills and fun but not money so don't waste your hard earned money on these games.

I think that should be considered a rule already because you shouldn't even risk something that isn't yours. It would make you feel bad and moreover, it will make your reputation probably an addict or considered a person that you shouldn't lend money to. It's such a gamble these days even if it shouldn't be a big deal.

Do you gamble for fun or for profit?

I'm not really good in gambling and I only know some local games so I would say that I only gamble for fun no money involve. Its our past time with my siblings and friends during summer when were still teenagers.

No money involve?That means it's not a gamble, my friend, it's just an ordinary game. If it is a game that does not include a gambling game but you put a bet with your friend then it is a gamble. And if it is a gambling game like poker but you do not put a bet in it it does not include gambling. The game is said to be a gamble if money is in it.
Not everything about gambling is money, probably risking something is a gamble and that already is gambling. By definition, it is taking a risk with the hope of taking a desired result in the long run. Hopefully, it will help that clarify what gambling is. It's not all about physical money or cryptocurrency.
The definition you shared my friend is the exact that Google shows when you search for the word gambling but it comes at number two. The first meaning that Google gives is "play games of chance for money; bet", and this is what we all are talking about. This gambling is a harmful thing.

Many people will play to come out from their stress and for time pass. and also people play for money. Everyone will play for only to win money but only a few people can afford their loss, these people will say they will play for fun, and it is true. I also play for fun, and I can afford my loss in gambling. We can make money easily like that we can lose money also easily.

I'm gambling (offline) just for fun. When there's no activity, my friends invite me to gambling poker and sometimes mahjong. I haven't been motivated to seek profit from gambling, this very risky for my financial condition.

We are also doing this with my friends when during weekends and after that when I go home I gamble with online casino's and usually my main reason by that time is changing. And yes, I'm gambling for the profit just like what others are saying and justifying their main purpose of their gambling. I know the risk in making gambling as you seek for profit but this is not my main source of income.

If I will gamble usually what I really want is to gain profit while enjoying the game, unlike other rich people who really enjoy gambling despite them loosing a lot I would rather think about my financial capability first. We know that gambling can also lead to some people to get addicted to it but for me I always maintain a clear mind to immediately stop before I hit my limit. I don’t want to be like those people who gamble until dry even their assets are also used as a collateral. I will gamble if I can see profit specially if I know I have a higher chance to win.

and if it is no longer fun anymore, you need to better stop that gambling session at once before you get even more disappointed. gambling is really relieving to some and that is their way of having fun and entertainment but not really for profit - they have other ways to earn with gambling that is just for fun and to kill some time Smiley

I agree that there is are better ways to earn aside from gambling but most of us here, honestly, wanted to win a stake while having fun.  It adds spice to the entertainment and excitement too.  Though some people forgot that gambling is made for entertainment,  lots of people still know that gambling should be played in moderation and only play with the money they can afford to lose.  Getting to serious on playing gambling games will take the fun out of the session and will get people stressed and frustrated when they lose.

Well that sounds defending all the mess, but in any way I am not so specific with any fun of profit in gambling. Because in betting strategies in a gambling games every person expects lucky chances of winning and that's what they really hope for. It looked hypocrite answers from other people if they said it's just for fun but reality speaks the truth behind pretensions.

Anyway the reason of the people who gamble is that to profit while enjoying the moment, making fun and getting excited to win the game. To profit is the main reason of the people who gamble why they continue to gamble. But their are also people who gamble because they seeking happiness and they are seeking attentions sometimes those people are rich, they never have problems on about money so even they lose some of their money they never mind about it.
