I don’t understand what joy gamblers feel when they gamble because gambling is not a fun.
for you gambling is not fun but for them gambling is fun because they can either win or lose and losing doesnt matter to them because they can afford the lose and they find gambling like a past time i think.

Well you can't blame them. Nobody is actually expecting that kind of business to have cristal clear honest advertisement. So they are telling you that you can win there (because you can) what they are NOT telling you is that the house has an edge so playing long term will make you poorer.

But not all of the people are like them that could afford to lose, the majority of the people who plays gambling are all after for profits because they badly needed the money. They are playing not for fun but for profits, the only reason why someone could say positive things about gambling is because they are getting benefits on it, but what about those who are not getting any. The only mistake of other people is that they choose to risk their money on gambling even though they know that it is too risky for them.

Maybe it depends on the player and the method or approach in playing, as well as their luck. Although I'm not really an expert on these things I also don't understand, why do they still play on that site if they know they're going to lose? (Prevention for addiction)
Valid question it is. Really I want to ask these gamblers that whenever a person involves in a business or any money thing, he must research properly that how much chances are there for loss and a win. The decision for choosing that source depends absolutely on this measure. But when you people already know this gambling would be the worst source and loss is dominant, why to go in there then?
You are absolutely right. Nobody think of consequences of gambling and start gambling although they know the bad results of it. Investment in cryptocurrency is business and gambling is the easiest way to spend your earnings and even your capital. I don’t understand what joy gamblers feel when they gamble because gambling is not a fun.
For me gambling and investment both have equal amount of risks. No one can say with a guarantee that the money that he has invested somewhere wouldn’t be drowned and he will get a benefit from it. Also, no one can say in gambling that he will win the game on which he has put a bet and return with both pockets full of money. the only thing that differs both is reputation and definitely, investment has a good one.

I can't understand one thing here.
Gambling websites usually promote their sites as best web to visit for gambling and winning. They tell you: Come here and win big but also at the same time they offer investment option and here they say again - invest and profit much. Website profits when users lose money so..
This also at the same time means: Players lose much here, so invest in our bankroll to get huge profit with us.
Can't understand of those casinos..
I believe your not a noob here because you are ranked as hero,but why it seems like your buyinh every gambling sites advertisements when you already know that if we talk about gambling,its more losing than Winning so the promises they are making is only a Bait for you to play and bet,but its not misleading this only refers to those noobs that starting their venture in gambling

It is common sense to not believe what casinos are offering or are promoting for since such organizations are looking to always hit a 99% win ratio over anything or any business they'll do and every case that represents an opportunity for you to win is just another successful way for them to get that money out of your pocket , slowly but surely .
Casinos and their games are designed in order to make you loose and why should they change such ideology and perspective ?
Knowing such things is life 101s and hearing different speechs is something we got used to have from casinos , such as the oldest trick in their books and for which people still fall : the beginning's bonus . Such trick has made millions for casinos that managed to get everything for themselves while teasing new comers with joining bonuses that made them spend twice what they intended to .
With a bit of logic even a baby would understand that such plans will never be rewarding for anyone except the casino itself .
Yeah! Basically they are thinking of themselves much more than they used to think about their customers because if they will start thinking about their gamblers, then there will be nothing much left for them to continue with their as they have to pay heavy taxes to their governments. I will not agree with you in that perspective because gambling is totally depending upon lucky, however this is true that casinos take some amount from your winning too.
Business are about grabbing money from customers with their own consent. All sort of world business first lure a customer, make him happy and persuade them to give their money with a broad smile on their faces. Casinos are no different. The whole interest of gamblers is in revenue. If they will start making gamblers rich, the casino won’t last for long.It is definitely not for doing charity.
There is no comparison between gambling and investment. Although many people think that investment takes a long time for making money, while gambling is something different. It is neither a business nor a trade. It is the easiest way to put your money in someone’s pocket. Don’t gamble it is a bad thing. Just investment your money and wait for some tine
Yeah exactly @Henmark ! Investing and gambling are two seperate lines that shall never cross because one of them is the process of investing your money in projects that you well studied and know approximately the amount of money you'll be winning if it succeeds and you can retreat from it at any moment you choose while gambling is just throwing away your money and waiting for a random result to happen and just try to predict/speculate that random output without having control over anything and without the possibility to back off .. Long time or not , an investment is 10 times safer than gambling .

that means if you get a big win, there must be players who lose in large numbers too. it will also happen to you sometime. so they promote their website to everyone with the same word, but the chances of winning are not the same.

After reading your thread i become confused too lol..
Im not a gambler myself thats why i dont understand the meaning of more terminology that using here,but what have you said is true,they will attract you by promising good win,because i think its more appropriate than saying 'come and play here,and you'll get big losses '

It is very simple to differentiate investment from gambling. Gambling is the process in which we make our holdings into a risk expecting added profit in a very small time period based on the events. Here luck as well the strategies play a major role. With investment it is entirely different, we expect added earning based on the growth happening on the particular asset with respect to the market growth.

It is part of the business ,promoting like that it is their tactics so that plenty of people will attract and play. And if you get easily tempted you will join and play with their games also invest then you don't notice that you already lose.
If you have some money and that you must make a choice in between gambling and investing of the money, then I will no doubt suggest you go for investing of your money at some profitable business and that too without even thinking for a while. There is nothing good which you can have because of gambling and that you need to stay away from any such thing which can result in loss of your money. Invest your money wisely.

Gambling and investment is performed in different ways... investment is placing something to wait for security in the future, and there is bigger chance of gaining profit, while in gambling everything depends and relies on luck and the bigger chance of losing, than gaining. It is quite risky because only few have succeeded in it, only few who are lucky in gambling, more on ending up losing

but I don't think the loss of the money only happens in one player only because I think there will be other people that getting lost if we can big win. besides that, we cannot always get a big win and we can get lost while we are playing gambling. so I think it is better for us to consider to use another way which is invested our money in the house because our chance to make money is bigger than playing gambling.

Gambling is the complete opposite of investment. Gambling is the often uncontrolled use of money in the hope of winning a larger amount against the house (or playing the odds), whereas investment is using strategy and predictions to make controlled choices about investment opportunities. Yes, certain games can technically slip into both categories (e.g. staking in poker), but in broad terms, they're on opposite ends of the money making spectrum.
It is right there is no comparison between gambling and investment. If you want to lose your money start gambling and if you want to make more money then invest your money in cryptocurrency. It is good to quit gambling today for the sake of your family. Your money is the right of your children and you should not waste hard earn money in gambling.

Every gambler sees the positive side of gambling which includes a lot of profits and a luxurious life and this is the mindset of the gambler when he comes to casino for gambling. They don’t even think about the consequences of gambling because the rich life is floating in their eyes and they just want to make a dream come true and they are unaware of the fact that to fulfill your dreams, you have to make a sacrifice.

Attractive offers always prompt us to get in that thing. These casinos are just implementing this scheme and thus they managed to engage so many stupid people in there by fancy advertisements and offers. Here the problem comes, we are told of everything expect the profit of casino that why they are offering us this. What would be their profit in this thing? We have to think over this.

In this whole world every business need advertisements to attract the customers so the gambling sites are also doing the same.So if someone thinks it as a investment then they need to face the consequences also.It doesn't depend on the how long we are playing it all about the luck of each personals and we can't say all the people failed to make profits in long term because if someone is luck enough then he can make money until that.

And one thing with investments is that you will never lose your unless you have sold your stocks or the thing that you are holding unto. But with Gambling, your fate is decided in a matter of minutes or seconds and it's all about your luck as sometimes applies to investments as well.

This is not too hard to understand. There are people who feel they can win by playing, but there are also people who believe in statistics and have patience. The apparent contradictory adverts are designed for gamblers and investors, respectively.

Another point to note is that casinos do not always win, at least in the short term, as already mentioned in some posts above. In some cases, the casino will take commission (i.e. a portion of the 'theoretical' profit calculated from the house edge) from the investor for each bet put by the gambler, even if the investor actually loses for a particular bet. In these cases, casinos are the biggest winners because they are guaranteed an income by collecting commission, regardless of whether the gamblers or investors win, and the game becomes a negative-sum game for the gamblers and investors. This is the strategy adopted by Bitvest, for instance. If I am an investor, I would prefer a casino which takes commission after the investor makes profit, as is the case for Yolodice.

Despite of all this, encouraging or suggesting someone to gamble is not very nice or wise of anyone rather we should help people in staying away from this fatal ridiculous game. Even if someone can win, the next part is this happens very rare. Who can even guess what luck has decided to do with him. Investment in gambling is entirely different from gambling itself.Investment in any form brings profit.

for you gambling is not fun but for them gambling is fun because they can either win or lose and losing doesnt matter to them because they can afford the lose and they find gambling like a past time i think.

People who have money will not bother much and they won't care how much money they are loosing in gambling. They treat gambling as fun and they won't consider whether they are losing or winning.
