what is definition gambling in your mind?

[swogerino]

To play gambling is to risk money and believing in the chance that you will get more money than you initially risked. For this you play against a casino house , against a friend, or against other people like in fairlay. A game of chance in general, sometimes some games like poker also involves skill but still remain game of chance.

Many people said the gambling is just a game and another people said it is Investment. How do you think? 

That's true gambling its just a game, even others said its an investment but majority of them believed that gambling was a game of fun, entertainment, and a game of relaxation.

How about the people who take gambling as an entertainment, a way to indulge and enjoy themselves.  There are gamblers that dont prefer to win, but are preferred to be enjoying the game and having fun,some of them still hopes to win, but mostly they do not care to lose because what they are after is the feeling of enjoyment and hapiness, in which gambling is kne way they can attain that feeling. It is a game of chance and these game of chance is a fun and enjoying activity for some. Gambling is risking something for getting more than you risk or you had, in other words, gambling is the game of the greedy.

What I think that Gambling means is that the results for winning and losing is 50% or really close to it so that also means there isn't a straight answer to the winning result.

You can never get that equal chance because casinos always have the edge, they are operating for the main purpose of profit hence they will do everything in order to win. Gambling is fun so the real definition is entertainment and since operators aim for money and they prove they can get it so it's a different definition for them, and that is business for them.

Whatever you do, in some point in time in the future, the casino will still come out on top, that's why they are still in business and gambling is a very profitable business and for players, the edge is what they are up against.

It depends on the game that is being bet on. Sports Betting for example is usually a 50% chance.

I don't see it that way, in sports betting you will only end up with odds 1.90 or less if you take a game with equal odds, just to make an example on my understanding, if Team A is the favorites and the line is -7.5 the odds is usually 1.90 or 1.85 in some sportsbook while the opposing team gets +7.5 with the same odds.

I've seen that is normal in sports betting as the 10% juice is normally considered to make a gambling site profitable, but that was huge actually if you think about it carefully, it's 10% every bet and if you are break even results in 10 games using the same amount bet, you will still end up losing because of that 10% juice.

Nope, Actually he has a point there. Some sports betting site offers a 50/50% on bet, AFAIK, Cloudbet offer this kind of odds selection especially on basketball, It is on the bet type of odd/even on the total score of the game. This was a long time ago because i already stop using cloudbet since they are not already have a instant withdrawal feature.
On bitsler, They offer 0% house edge sometimes then it may be applicable.

It all depends on the site that offers the bet, probably. Knowing that some sites have different rates, they have different calculations also. It may end up the way you wanted or not, it's just the fact that you are going to bet or not. Just take the risk and hope for the best. Be careful of rigged games, you may never know what can happen.

No one denies it. Gamblingis an very good business to profit. If you consider bitcoin too, a major circulation happens because of gambling sites. It is good for investors and for  lucky ones. It is not termed as bad because now everything has got risk. Here we sometimes risk our living needs hoping for a better life.

Perhaps most of us agree if definition of gambling is for fun and we never win against them because hard for us destroy their system, we always think new strategy and that's make us fall a sleep into they trap.

To me, gambling is when you risk money or possessions on a game of chance. The gray area is that there are variations in how much control we have in different games. In dice, it is completely out of our control, but a professional poker player has some control in a poker game especially if he knows the opponents.

Well that is a wrong guess, if there are 50 percent results for winning and losing, then there must be a probability that the count of all gamblers that is winning is 50 percent and the gamblers that is losing is also 50 percent which is really not right. There are only 10 - 20 percent that won a gambling activity, some of them use a strategy and some of them merely luck and cheats. Gambling is a risk that people take to gain something, not just money, there are also faith, trust, love, fame and pride.

When we are talking about on Gambling (playing games) then the ratio among winners and lossers are too far away stretched which you already did mention that there are more losers compared to winners which is part the reality on gambling field.Its not only focusing on games but also to real life situations we do need to gamble to earn something.

[Restmand]

Gambling is a game that involved a money that you can win or loss, but if you will treat gambling as for fun then you will not loss anymore because the reason why you gamble is for fun so there's no way that you will loss although your money can loss but as long as you enjoy you are not a looser in that situation so let's put aside gambling for fun to us to have no regrets so gambling is a game for me.

For me gambling is like a game of chance to earn or lose more money in a short amount of time. I don't see gambling as an investment because when i hear that word there's much time that's consumed in the process of doing it just to make profit.

I think gambling is a game that uses a test of luck and guts to do a game by means of a trick in the game and also deplete the mind and may also lose money, so can not gambling as a safe investment place. gambling will also wear a long time to gain advantage or luck ...

You are right, that is only based on luck and you will only win if you have that, and since we are not so lucky everyday but we want to have fun almost everyday so we will also have a losing experience. That is not new to us because we have encountered that most of the time but what is important is we will mature and learn from our experience.

As for me, I would always think that gambling is for fun only and I do not have the chance to win consistently which others are enjoying.

[youdacapt]

gambling is my job, there is no better job than gambling, if we focus with any degree of difficulty is in fact nothing is impossible to master, it will be very much find-game losing streak at one time, but no matter because experience is the best thing in our lives.
