The key reason for gambling

[EdenHazard]

I gambled to make money and I have no any other reason why I gamble.  I think many of us if we can be sincere do the samething.  Gambling is a game and investing into gambling so be taking as such.  You either win or lose depends on what is in your favor. Therefore I don't gamble for fun but to make money.

Interesting when I heard your perspective on gambling, moreover you say gambling is just profit not just for fun. So, I just want to ask how much profit you get during your gamble and how much loss do you get when you gamble? In contrast to most people who gamble to find a safe way, they say gambling just for fun so as when they experience a loss, they will argue not to regret it because for them gambling is just for fun hence experiencing loss when gambling is a disgrace that must be covered.

The major reason why I gamble is for me to earn and not for fun. A good gambler or a dedicated gambler will always gamble for profits and not for whatsoever.

Making money from gambling is hard, and I am afraid that you will lose in the end, and it's better you realize that and don't use more money to bet. I don't think that a good gambler will always search the profit because they will also search a way out from losing money. So if you still playing gambling and get lost, then it's better to quit gambling for a while.

At first enjoyment and socialization but when it differs it becomes money and greed,this is the way why people becomes addicted and you cant change this

Unless you can prevent from getting involved in gambling,or you can perfectly controlled yourself and emotion then you’re safe in gambling

To be honest with you, no one can perfectly control himself or emotions but the moment a gambler knew what he will face in terms of gambling while he set a break strategy, he definitely know how he can incorporate wise actions to get the full benefit out of the game. However, the key reason for gambling we always be for the sake of money, socialization and enjoyment.

Those commons facts is the reality inside this activity, having some fun with your friends or even inside your own convenience as offer by online gambling, the fact that you are able to control such emotions can keep you to enjoy this way, not unless greed takeover and make things differ from the first time you play, as time will past and possibilities to suffer stress and addictions will follow.

I started gambling out of curiosity because I've seen advertisement here on the forum about different types of gambling games you can play and you don't need KYC document in order to play it in other words anyone can play as long as you have money... At first it's really fun looking at your money to grow, crash and fail again but once you hit a jackpot you're going to be greedy and earn a lot and if you lose you're going to recover your lost and be desperate until you're out of luck.

To make it short... At first I play it as for fun after some time playing it to earn... but now I stopped since It's really risky for me since I can't fully control myself playing.

Got your point but in as much a gambler apply the right strategy he must win even though the winnings come in fractions, so, am not scare of the looses because that also make a gambler who he is.

I realize this question was probably raised before, but I believe that the answers might be changing with time, because bitcointalk community grows and because the interests and needs of people can become different in years. I recall a video on addiction that explained that people mainly become addicted because of feeling sad and lonely. When I made a thread about whether gamblers think that gambling addiction has the same reason, the answers differed a lot. Now I am curious what kind of people are gambling here. Are they mainly looking for money, excitement, socialization? Please vote and leave a comment below in case you want to add something to your answer.

I will not deceive anyone, I came here primarily to earn money on cryptocurrencies. I had experience in trading on stock exchanges, so I really enjoyed trading on cryptocurrency exchanges.
Since then, cryptocurrencies have become gambling for me.

And at least in trading, you know the odds and you can mitigate the risk, compare to gambling that you don't have control over it unless you're lucky that day and exited when you're you still have your winnings. For me though, i learn to control and just enjoy the game, if I don't win so be it, I'm no longer the gambler that chases my losses on the next day. If I'm not lucky this day then maybe next week or next month, just saying.

The fact of the matter is, I like it in cryptocurrencies, I get emotions from trading like gambling, but at the same time the risks of losing my money are much lower.
And I wish you good luck.

In my case, I do gamble because I am seeking and trying new activity which I have not done yet in my younger years and also to do entertain myself and socialize with other people because when you are playing, you have that opportunity to meet other people and somehow make friends with them. I do gamble not just because I am interested with money because I am just a small time better and I just play sometimes so it doesn't matter whether I win or loose because the important thing is that I enjoy playing. That is why I have get to engaged into an online casino so that I can still conveniently play even at home when I have no time to go to casino establishments to play so I can still play varieties of games plus enjoy their great bonus after doing my first deposit.

Well, I do also gambling just like you to try new activities which I have not yet done or even tried so it is my first and as we all know first times are really worth exciting and fun. I am playing gambling just to entertain myself while I am peacefully resting on the couch after a long tiring day of mine. I am up into seeking varieties of games that I can play online so I think it worth a try to check out that online casino you are up to.

You did the right thing, and actually you proved that you can control yourself. That's what I do from time to time, I stop gambling for a while when I can see that I spend too much time on this activity. I rarely lose significant amounts of money, but I definitely lose significant amount of time on gambling in some occasions. It's when I notice that time spent on gambling is close to 50% of my free time, I stop for a week or two. Then I see how many interesting things I can do instead of gambling, and I enjoy doing them ... until I'm getting bored by those "interesting" things ... and the circle starts over again.

There must be a lot of responses from various people, some are gambling to earn income and some are aiming for entertainment. There is a choice like this because everyone has different thoughts. But what I suggest is that everyone who wants to play gambling must be patient and control their mental state. Without this, a person can experience addiction which can adversely affect the future of a gambler.

[Bitcoin_Arena]

Sometimes it starts as fun and then probably when someone loses a big sum of money in it or gets in a crisis, then he tries to recover the money by doing more gambling, At the stage, the person starts doing it as a source of income.

Well if the only quest is the profit maximization, better be good at the skill. You need to know almost everything that can help you out at gambling.
Most of the people who are in the gambling are motivated by money and are in for the monetary benefits. They win and make money one way or the other. But it is a game of probability and you do not always know what will happen upon entering the game.

[Ucy]

So, majority of people gamble to make money while the remaining gamble for relaxation/entertainment. This is an interesting poll.
Could be that additiction is caused by both trying to make money from gambling and trying to have fun with gambling?

[JeromeTash]

Could be that additiction is caused by both trying to make money from gambling and trying to have fun with gambling?

Yes both can lead to addiction.
Its like try to drink alcohol for fun and drinking it due to depression. One eventually gets addicted either way when they over get used to it.

Most people think greed was the main reason why gambler usually proceed despite their lost is because they are high and it something like a buzz. Like I said earlier no one can totally control him self and we all somehow greed in some aspect and the best way to stop the greed or buzz is by setting a limit strategy.

Because usually gamblers thinking of huge money inside casino's and they'll think that they could win all the time but they are actually wrong. Gambling is not all about of winning but just to have enjoyment with. Many were fall into addiction cause they'll never control their self.

You might be right base on the rate of gambling addicted people confession and like you said they should see gambling as a way of enjoyment but we have seen a case where people that sees gambling as a means of enjoyment are also addicted to gambling. What I'm trying to point out is that winning was not the only reason behind gambling addiction and the best thing every gambler must do is setting some break/stop strategy in other not be addicted.

[LUCKMCFLY]

At first, I played without any control, I currently play with a mental strategy of allocating money just to play, where I leave it for lost, to play without any stress, the amount that I draw from my winnings, specifically half of my Earnings I try them to the game.
