Well I guess a lot of people "confuse" fun with thrill, or maybe they don't and they simply have fun when they are "nervous", or have that uncertainty feeling in their stomach, when they are waiting for their numbers to come out during a spin in the roulette or a through of the dice. They can of course get that as well in online gambling.
Not saying I don't agree with you, and in my personal experience I prefer gambling on land base casinos, instead of doing it online. I even tried those online casino that have a live cam, but it's of course not the same thing. I do have fun when I'm playing poker, both online and live poker, but that is because I actually like the game.
So bottom line here, I guess it all depends on what people feel as fun, since fun is actually a feeling, and could be triggered differently for different persons.

Most games aren't necessarily what I would define as "fun" they're more entertaining, capturing your immediate attention, rather than your long term interest. I think that you can consider trading type games, e.g. Cryptokitties as a gambling type game, but definitely more interactive than your typical slots or dice games. I guess it's quite sad that there aren't any real AAA type games that have a fun gambling type element to them, I could imagine a game like The Witcher could integrate PVP betting for its card game, but just nobody has ever taken the time to build something for us like that because the fun of playing gambling can not be expressed in words as well as hobbies there is a certain happy feeling and everyone has different happy feelings.

This thread is actually for those who have one way or the other mentioned on this section of the forum about catching fun in online gambling so as not to get addicted, which I am sure I am not the only person who must have come across this.
I totally understand that you can at least have some fun in real life casinos since there are people around you can gist with, you can even go with friends, there are other activities you get to lay your hands on etc, which can actually divert your attention from the impulse that comes with gambling and rather focus on the fun, instead of trying to win at all cost.
However, in online gambling, I really want to hear from those who said they can have fun doing so, which to me, it is more like virtually everyone gambling online is actually in it for the money. At least, I have gambled on freebitco.in dice few times, and I was bored as (whatever you want to fill in here), with the whole martingale strategy, that I had to look for a script to use while I just kept doing some other activities. Although, I know some platforms like cryptogames have a chat system where you can converse with other gamblers, but all these to me, still does not sound like fun compared to traditional level.
Please enlighten me just in case I am missing something here or do you share the same view?
In online gambling we can't have much fun as we can get in the real life casinos but we need to agree that most of the gamblers are gambling for money not for the entertainment so they don't care about where they are playing.But still we cn have excitement while playing in online that is we call it as adrenaline pump but don't ask for too much adrenaline because it will cost much.

There is really no fun when one is playing online gambling and the only thrill and fun when it comes to that is winning but it seems that what most people are talking about is actually land based casinos and not the online casinos which OP is talking about.

If you are in search of online gambling fun then you have to gamble on that site where Chat is enabled so that you can chat with users and do betting , this way you will be getting fun just like gambling in real casino. Other then that it will be boring as you are gambling alone in front of compter / mobile where no one is their with you just sitting single and gambling. But if you are playing poker then you can have fun as real player poker will always keep you entertained as you will be observing the other players playing pattern and play according to it. So it will keep you busy and active.

People have different reasons why they are involved in gambling. Some would prefer in an online gambling because they don't want to be hassle and wanted to be alone. What makes it more interesting in an online gambling is we are comfortable and have the chance to get more focused. The excitement is only about the winning moment and not focusedly thinking about lossing. Furthermore, OP seems to be right that it is more fun gambling the traditional ways because we can interact directly with players and online gambling only focused on winning.

It is not for every person. I have been gambling for years on bitcoin world now but since I do not have access to real life casinos this is the closest I can get. I also tried my hand onpokerstars as well which is as real as it can get. Unfortuantely some of us are not living in a place where gambling is allowed, so we have to try our hand on websites that offers it.
Since bitcoin is mostly not seen by goverments us playing with bitcoin to gamble on websites is a way to at least gain some real life gambling fun. I have always loved it and always spent some of my income as "hobby" instead of actually aiming to win money or save my life with the income of it. I full on start gambling every time with the knowledge that I will lose all of that money, sometimes I do and thats ok because its fun but sometimes I win and thats a good surprise.

True. I have been playing landbased based casino myself, tried crypto gambling but I honestly doesn't fell the ambience as compare to a traditional casino. So I prefer most of the time playing landbased with my families and friends. Just like I said, crypto has also its advantage, but if you are used to playing in landbased casino, I don't think that you will have the fun and enjoyment playing online. What I do like about online though is the fact that when that itch comes, and I don't want to go out, I just go and play online and when I got bored, I simply quit win or lose.

I like betting on sports, because it makes it more exciting than simply watching without no consequences. When you bet on your team or when you bet in a fight it makes it more intense because there is money on the lane.
I personally don't find any entertainment value in online roulette and so on, that is too dangerously addictive.
Physical casinos are still fun in moderation, if you go with friends and don't drink too much so you don't do anything stupid.
it is certain that when we insist on making a strategy to gamble and end with a victory then comes the satisfaction of itself when we get a very big bet with the results of our hard work maybe you can also understand it...

Well, I can't say I haven't had fun in offline casinos and only a handful of experiences. All of them have been pretty much short-lived, and always in the context of having a holiday or the intention to blow off some cash.
But online? And especially on Bitcoin casinos? Definitely fun to kill a bit of time chatting (yep that's that community aspect) with the regulars. I don't participate so much but there's always someone hosting fun games every now and then for small prizes (don't have those in offline, just random draws maybe that you've got to wait hours for). And then I've also been lucky enough to be around when big jackpots are hit. These winners tend to be quite... generous.
So in summary: the interactive features/interaction of Bitcoin casinos, where there are chat functions anyway. That's probably the most fun people have and talk about. But if you're talking about glitz, having a pretty lady/boy deal you your cards, free flow drinks and snacks, well, those lose their novelty quickly.

Surely you know it would definitely be a different experience when you are physically there and conversing with other people in real life because you get to be intimate and look them in the eyes and see whether or not they are telling the truth or not (helpful in poker). Personally I share your view where you have a different kind of fun when you’re online and when you are in the floor of a casino. I guess it all depends on the personal view whether it makes you happy to not face people or being there physically.

I never did think that online gambling is fun, in my personal opinion it was never fun it even frustrates me when losing and in the way that you wanted to get back what you've lost will soon lead to an addiction. The thing is, it was fun when you are winning obviously that is the reason why I'm gambling to win some but never to lose some so it is only fun when a person is winning unlike what you've said about actual casino's with friends you can get along, and people you can change information with, on the other hand there will be people serving you, and not to mention that in each casinos there is a live entertainment so basically online gambling has a completely different atmosphere than an actual gambling.

One thing that you are missing when you resort to online gambling is the entertainment, socialization and the atmosphere that you feel whenever you are inside an actual casino. Although the place might encourage you to gamble more, it provides the opportunity for you to meet and make new friends along the way. Sometimes, what makes the entertainment entertaining are the people who are you with. In the case of online gambling, most people are usually alone and at home when they utilize this option- which is not entirely bad for introverts (or extroverts as well).
In order for you to utilize and to maximum your entertainment, you always have the option to balance things out between online gambling and casino visits if you find online gambling boring and stale.

What you are missing here is understanding that not all the people have the same mindset as you. You are saying about all those attractions of the real life casinos like everybody would enjoy them for sure but this is not the case in the modern world. Do you know how many introverts are out there? A lot. And for those people the environment of the real life casino is hell they don't want to even think of. But some of them do enjoy gambling, so they choose to do it in online casinos perfectly suited for their needs. And no, not all of them are gambling for money, because not all of them are stupid in the first place. Some of them are gambling for fun, like me, for example, enjoying the process very much.

I have a similar opinion. People are forgetting about fun and are there for the money. Some just want the outcome which is a positive balance and others are there to satisfy their addiction. I'm not a frequent gambler and when I do it it's with the money I consider lost. Unfortunately I rarely have fun gambling online.

Here you will only gamble easily without any hurdles, but in real life casinos you can enjoy with your friends. Drink, dance and gambling all in one place. I want to say that gambling should be only for fun and not for gambling because you cannot make money from gambling.

I personally compare the fun in gambling to clutching (winning a 1v1, 1v2, etc) in CS:GO- it gets your heart racing, adrenaline pumping, and I describe it as fun, even if I lose every now and then. That's why I play games like Counter-Strike, and gambling also provides a similar type of thrill to me.
There aren't any casinos near me, and the ones I've visited about an hour away don't provide such a good experience that I would drive an hour just to gamble there, so I like to gamble online; however, I will say that I have gone to casinos with friends in the past, and it has been an enjoyable experience. Trollboxes can be fun sometimes as well, but I typically use the ones on exchanges as I like to trade every now and then.

Like I always maintained, the only fun in gambling is when you are winning and because that cannot be guaranteed totally, you get bored the moment you are losing money. For those who still continues after losing large chunk of money, it is no longer fun to them but rather the quest for revenge driving them to continue but to hide that, they claim they are having fun. I wonder what the fun is when you are losing your hard earned money regularly. I have been involved in series of online gambling mostly the dice and sport's gambling and I have come to discover that the ninety minutes of the match are usually the longest wait I had to in knowing the outcome then I smile when I win when the opposite happens, I just move on, nothing to be happy about and I think the same thing happens to people. When I want to have fun, I hangout with friends and colleagues to have a nice time.

While the feel and atmosphere of a land casino is far more exciting than playing at an online casino, some people for one reason or another may be unable to visit a land casino, so they make the most of it by trying to have fun at an online casino. Given a choice, I do prefer to be at a land casino myself.
