Why not play games online instead of gambling?

thats why gambling is addicting,because the intensity of the games,when you trying to beat the opponents or banker that will steak you a money or somthing in pot,thats why gambling is different from online games,i am a gamer my self ani admit i more love to play games than gambling,but sometimes when i got to gamble,it gives me this winning target and it feels more exciting

I think it is much more thrilling to play with money. Definitely gets your adrenalin pumping when you are winning and losing real money.

I found it more intense and I am more thrilled when I am playing with my money in the gambling rather than playing some online games,
But I am also playing some online games to past my time I just gamble when I am really bored .

Online game is just an all out expense, there is no reward or what so ever like gambling.  And if you wanted to join a tournament, you will still spend a lot of money and then at the end you are not sure if you can win that tournament.  It is almost the same as gambling.  But well, mostly the excitement online games (mmorpg, moba etc) brings is far different from gambling in a casino.  And different people prefer different kinds of excitement during their leisure time.

They find it more enjoyable when there are bets while they gamble. Before I was only looking for fun but when I'm starting to make some profit with gambling I realized that its more fun to gamble for profit rather than gamble only for the entertainment. The logic is that if you want to have fun then why not put it to the extent that you are also benefiting with some money on the side?

No offense here but i am curious. Do you most of the time win? If your do no question to that for sure it is not just enjoyable but satisfying as well but, during loses, do you still enjoy it? I think the enjoyment they feel here is the thrill and anticipation that somehow they will or might win.

It is like having a motto of “better lose in trying than regret in not trying at all:D. Maybe out of curiosity also on the game seeing that other players are winning and what if you are going to try to to see if you are lucky enough to win too.

it is just a classic reason. if indeed they gamble for pleasure. probably not much money they spend on gambling. and true if that's the reason they give, of course a lot of online games are more fun than the gamble

[Karmakid]

Online games is one of my choices to enjoy my free time and to relax,
But there are times when I really like to gamble because of the thrill it gives me,
I really feel the thrill when money is involve in the game.

Money is what the driving factor in gambling rest actually if you understand people do not worry about the loss/win. For example if you had won the good amount and still if you lose 20% of the win amount say you will still not feel bad about losing. Its money that people want to make form gambling and thus they may not like the online games played where you do not get anything.

The experience is different, ambiance and the logic are different from playing online games. Also that's why it is called gambling, its a game of money so gamblers will have fun with some money on the side bet. You can also interact in online casino's and have some chitchat with them, sharing thoughts and strategies.

Double purpose, that's the one factor some people like online gambling compared to online games, the thrill plus the income while enjoying the gambling and excitements of winning that's some people want in playing. But there some people who enjoyed in online gaming too were not the same likes and dislikes. For me i prefer to gambling playing site it can relieved my stress after work while i enjoy in gambling.
Both are the same enjoyable but different people having a different taste in gaming mode.

money is the main factor we play gambling.
no need to be a hypocrite to say something very unreasonable.
looking for fun can be without gambling.
watching the comedy drama that can be considered a pleasure.
gambling is business and work.
not something we can take pleasure in

Man, it's like to ask: Why don't you play assassinms creed over prince of persia. Really, it's similar question. Everyone has different taste, for some people poker and blackjack is good, for others some arcades and etc. Everyone finds different thing for fun. Usually people gamble for getting profit but if anyone claims they gamble for fun, that's great if it's reality.

Agree, everyone has their own pleasure. Not everyone likes to play online games including gamblers. We have different tastes. Look out there! There are some people who willing to do a very risky thing like climbing the mounthain and so on just to get fun.

The thrill is there and that's online games is lacking of. There's no thrill in online games, you have to play according to the game play and there's no way for you to have some decent money after all the same way in gambling. But you can also have some good time in gambling by selling some good items or characters but that's a different thing and it can't be related to gambling anyway.

I was an online gamer before i played a lot of online games then before i quit a particular game i always sell my items, character and gold, playing online games is very time consuming, sometimes i wasn't able to go to school because of games that is why i prefer gambling over playing online games because i can gamble anywhere, anytime i want and it can give me profit but of course not all the time.

A Gambler is once a gambler even though you involved them in online games or in gaming they can make it gambling too. Gambling is not only all about playing braha/cards or dice. You can do it in every game we do such as basketball, volleyball, etc about sports. In cock fight, we can do it gambling as we see there are many people do it as gambling those business man or celebrities even rich people do it. So, if that person really want to quit gambling he can do it on his own.

[Pleione527]

The kind of game is different in gambling and online games and I believe the thrill they get from gambling are much better than online games. Another thing is that in gambling you winnings can be converted into fiat even if it is not your focus but having some sort of reward out of gambling makes it more interesting to do.

[Ayiranorea]

There are people who spend long time online. Now users too have got more and online games to spend good time. In reality gambling gives excitement whereas games just waste those times. The time we spend on gambling based on luck gains profit. The same when spend on games just gives an reward which can be shared.

[Aikidoka]

That is because people want to have fun while getting money at the end. Playing games is fun. However, getting a reward at the end is more fun if you ask me. Do you get happy if you play an online game and get a rare item after you win? If so, it is the same feeling when you win money after the game.

Plus, people are very greedy when it comes to money. They want to win no matter the cost. That is why they lose afterwards and are left with nothing but a regret. The ones who win the bet will surely play again until they become addicted.

[Shinpako09]

It's not just for fun of course, they want a profit. Once you enter a gambling site your main aim is profit. I guess the reason why they are saying they only used small amount because they are just playing for fun is mainly they are afraid to lose big so they only trying small amount and saying those fun thing. When I was still in gambling, I never intend to have fun but for profit. Fun is only achievable if you are happy with the result of your playing.
