In sports gambling, i prefer to think gambling is a fun. Because, can support team i idolize, even if i lose no objection. Different with gambling poker or dice, there i am looking for profit.

My motivation in gambling of course wants to make a profit. For what is risking money if only to be give up to house. I still need money, so i have not been able to gambling for fun.

Some people have different thought about this. I dont really like sportsbetting because the result is not instant. I prefer something with instant result such as dice or roulette. For some people it might be boring and sportsbetting give them higher chance to win. In the end it is up to the gamble which one to choose but if it is for fun then instant result should be much better

In my case it is profit, although I enjoy playing but if the main reason was having fun I wouldn’t play exactly as I play now. Also, when I play I try to control my emotions as much as I can because I know that playing emotionally may be more fun but it goes against my profits.

For most people, though, it is a way to pass the time, so the funny side of it comes first, although they hope to make money.

Do you gamble for fun or for profit?

when I tried it at first I am only aiming for profit I never gamble for fun actually it only come in whenever I am getting a consecutive win but it is not really fun for me to risk my money so I stopped it eventually . Cheesy maybe most people are doing it for the same reason and I don't think people are only gambling their just for fun, I mean of course they are still aiming for something good which is winning a certain amount from it .

I think most of the people gambling for money only because even though they are gambling for fun but sometimes it makes them very serious about gambling and addictive to it also. Even I never found any person gambling for fun.
I think it makes sense, whoever gambles, whatever the purpose of the real gamble, there will be times when he gambles seriously and expects money. Nothing wrong if we expect to get money, because money is a gift promised by gambling.
Well money is not a gift and its more not a promised , we can earn only if we won if we are luck or anything else that makes us won. To be honest im thinking and expecting money in gambling i know its wrong but i earn on it.
It is not only you but a huge list is up there with thinking in their mind to earn money. I don’t believe if someone is claiming to gamble for just fun and entertainment. Because there are more than thousand ways to get fun rather to lose your money in just a “Fun-thing”.

I agree. Most people gamble for EASY MONEY. There are other ways to have fun without the odds of losing a fortune. You gamble because you want to gain instant profit and you have fun while winning but fun is not the word if things aren't going your way.

I'm aiming for a good profit. It'll be more fun if I get what I'm aiming for. My friends and I were having fun while playing and it satisfies me whenever I get the profit. I hate the feeling of losing. Since we win gambling by luck,  I always wanted to go home smiling because I won rather just smiling because I had fun but didn't get what I want.

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.
nice thinking mate, if you got some edge and you feel that you can win then its nice to play gambling it will twice the enjoyment, enjoying while
earnings from your activities is most of us love to feel when playing, better to put it that way and never to get attached too much.

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.
It is matter of fact that people often start with intensions of fun and entertainment. But later on when they play and they lose so the need of getting back the lost money make them addict and they play again and lose and it goes on. So leave it, better it is.

Everyone feel less fun when they lose but the main point of playing for profit is that when we play for profit, we are only focusing on how to get profit but when we play for fun then we are focusing on having fun. That means we dont care about the result because the main satisfaction is not about winning or losing but more about having fun

Do you gamble for fun or for profit?
When I was a beginner I used gambling to earn profit but every attemp that I have made is futile because I always ended up to a losser. Then, I found out this forum and I gradually lost my will to gamble that's why I used gambling just for fun purpose only.
It is for your own good kid! I am also a fun seeker gambler because I know the fact, if you want to earn something and do big things, you need to do hard work, put a lot of effort and keep on going no matter what it costs you, gambling is nowhere near all these.

I wouldn't surprised if then keep hearing people who claimed gamble for the sake of fun ,
But deep inside of you , it will always about making money ,
Why? Pretty simple because of the factor that makes people so excited to gamble is because it's looks easy to make money ,
In short term it is indeed , but then when you try to make it happen for longer time it will always failed.

It is about making money and it will always be about making money, nothing more than that. People could keep on claiming that they are not making any money at all but only to have fun but I can ensure that they are having fun because they are playing with real money. That means they are trying to make money as well

Yeah it's just claim at the first impression people really having fun ,
Without any string attached / other intention,
But as time goes by i think people purposes will get changed ,
They know already on how good the instant money through gambling and as always mostly get lured.
Humans have greed and if someone claims that he has not, the he is a liar. It can be the case that one controls his nature and emotions in a very effective way but that does not imply his feelings are dead. People change with time and money is very attractive.

Fun and profit and adrenaline im in 2,2 k profit ($) wich i bought a new phone with
Your luck is with you otherwise gambling is not good at all. It mostly puts you in loss but congratulations if you have bought new cell with gambling. But still I would recommend you not to gamble much because you never know when your odds go against you and put you in tough time.
All the gamblers do hit up on such winnings in their life. It is not possible that some one never ever finds luck on his side. But this is the point where most of the gamblers start considering gambling as a source of income. One thing must be kept in mind, in the world of gambling, the chances of losing are higher than winning.

I'm gambling for fun. At first I considered them as a variant of earnings, but then I realized that you can only lose money and not get pleasure from it. Profit can be obtained only when investing in gambling.

Depends if what game are you playing. If your playing card games, most players get the fun they wanted even if the results are not always in their favor.

It's a choice of both, we gamble for profit and if we win, that's really fun at all. There's no gambler that is having fun when he's on the losing streak and instead of having fun we are mostly going to feel upset and very bad on that moment. Everyone's goal here is to play for profit and people that will say they are for fun are very rare or not they are just lying and just telling it to hide their main reason.

That's why I always gamble on sports because I make money and at the same time have fun when my team wins. It's best if you gamble solely for the profit than for fun because you can easily quit the gambling and still have all the fun.

sports betting can be really fun and entertaining especially if you know very well the game and is familiar with almost all if not all members of the team as well as the coaching staff. you need to make it sure that the team you are betting have well-conditioned team players and there is no any injury of star players.

I gamble for fun only, just because I believe that there is no way of making profit of gambling.

The real problem about is attitude that if you believe that you can make profit off gambling you end up losing more money then you planned to and it's just the perfect recipe to get addicted.

If you stay with this attitude that there is no way of making money off the casino you will easily avoid getting addicted to betting.

For me it doesn't depend on what games I play, because you can seek profit from gambling through fun and not in case to case basis. Most gamblers find it more chances of profit as they enjoy with their activities with gambling. It was just an excuse that they tell others that they made fun over it. That's why it made more people addicted rather behind the fun that they had for long time, although profit is present but loses could not be determined how much it is really.
