Why do you gamble? Please voice your opinion!

[XCANA]

Number Five(5). As a gambler, it has occur to me to be careful when it come to gambling becasue, if one does not know his/her limit in gambling, he/she may end up addicted on gambling to his or her detriment. Gamble occasionally, and look forward for luck; is my principle of gambling and it has worked for me till now.

[Capt00]

This what I am thinking when I was in gambling, just like me I do occasionally gamble and the purpose on it is to have a relaxation after my whole day work. It makes me feel asleep after 1-2 hours in gambling so in that way I can do sleep earlier rather than to lay down without doing nothing and you can't sleep. So, I have chosen the both option 1 and 5.

Opposite of this Relaxation, I want excitement, and of course trying my luck to win big in gambling.
Making a living in gambling is my plan but I prove many times it's impossible for me, so I minimize my gambling activity but I am still looking for it.
Gambling has probably enter into my system, I'm not addicted to it, at least I know, but I just love to gamble.

[rizkyhiw]

Gambling is used as relaxation but looking for luck is what I do now with not too much to always bet because I realize victory will not always take sides despite how much you bet, the get rich quick scheme is not my type personally because I prefer to walk slowly and calmly maybe I will choose another advantage of printing options rather than focusing on gambling because it is very risky where the percentage of expenses and profits is very different so don't let your money come out in vain, each bet must be arranged very well and with all the knowledge you make.

I am an occational gambler who finds relaxation and entertainment unto it. Gambling is not a quick rich scheme who are maybe the goal of others. Whenever im stressed or bored, i sometimes play and most of the time i finnish my day happy. I play with my extra money so that i am not drawn to being an addict in the future.

[sunsilk]

Count me in with 5.

I'm an occassional gambler and trying out my luck and if ever you see my betting history, you'll see me dice with too high target multiplier. There's nothing wrong with trying out my luck and the amount that's on stake is too high and the amount that I'll bet isn't too high.

Although, you said that it is vulnerable for the gamblers to become addicted including that number. I can say that I can manage myself and I'm not addicted to it.

1. Relaxation.
I do it with my free time at weekends and also with my excess money when all my necessities are already bought and bills are paid.

5. Trying my luck.
Well I think all gamblers have this in their mind.
If ever lady luck gets near them then it will be great. If not, then it is also okay. The thing is you should enjoy the game and not pure gambling with just greed in your mind.

3. Get rich quick scheme

This must be the most appropriate reason why i gamble. Not to be rich quickly but at least double/triple the money i had on hand when i go to gambling sites, that's my objective but with my experience it is not easy to achieve my goal.

[emmybd]

At first, when i started gambling a few year's back. I tried my luck to get rich quickly, but it didn't work for me and i lost all my funds. Now, i gamble occasionally and try my luck with as much amount as i can afford to lose.

[ethereumhunter]

I used to gamble a lot but I hate it now, the rush I once used to love turns into fear and anxiety. I absolutely hate gambling now and I'm glad because I save money lol. No one wins at gambling in the long run.

You really think no one wins in gambling? How about the skilled/professional gamblers like the poker players?  I guess you played alot of the gambling that are based on luck or you weren't that skillful in those particular gamblings.

I think he needs to search on Google about the person who can win in gambling. I am sure that he will find one or more gamblers who win in many games. I am sure that in the poker game, many gamblers have a high-skills can win the game but many of them are not publish their winning story to other people.

Gambling is a thing that cannot be ascertained, for me gambling is not a way to make a profit. The gambling game is far more a way of looking for fun, so don't ever target profits, when we use it as a way to make money, we will always get stressed and we can get addicted. That is a bad thing because when we get addicted we will be difficult to get rid of and it makes our lives far worse.

Gambling with amount you can afford to lose is the best way to gamble and reduce the risk involved.  I think we are in this to make money and not to lose it and because of that it is good we gamble with profits we made from investing.  For op questions,  I do gamble to make profits!

I admit i was once a full time gambler but it didn't end up positively and so i learned now that it's better to only gamble occasionally so i won't keep losing my money. Of course i gamble to make profits but we should not gamble seriously but only make it just kind of entertainment to have fun and at the same time to make profit if i'll be lucky that day.

For you to hate gambling this much, I am sure you must have lost alot from it, But on the contrary not your ideology of no one winning in the long run is incorrect. There are many winning and who will continue to win but gambling game require a lot of skills and wisdom to play. In gambling, if you jump in without experience, I can assure you will jump out soon with record of huge loses.

Although I do not know your experience with gambling and I wish you can share but many times I have seen that 80% who has lost terribly in gambling loose because of greed. Please lets know your experience, I am sure someone would learn from you

Well the main reason I choose to occasionally gamble is the rush that I receive just knowing at any time, I can hit a jackpot.
If I am playing slots for a say 15 minutes, I am content if I only lose a few bucks and even more happier if I win anything.
Anyone thinking they can gamble daily and constantly win needs to check basic math.

[hahay]

The reason I bet is to try luck and expect to get money quickly and not a scheme to get rich quick. Three downward sequences will indeed cause addiction and will have a bad impact if you don't have control.

[Oilacris]

1. Relaxation
5. Occasional gambler trying for luck

Two reasons why i play gambling but sometimes relaxation do lead into stress when you are losing money
and this is the sad fact for most gamblers out there.

I also gamble because i want to try my luck sometimes and make profits from it.I know that if i keep on gambling,i will surely lose my extra money so i prefer to gamble only occasionally particularly with some of my close friends.I have learned from my past experiences with gambling and so i am aware already what gambling could cause to someone's life if you focus yourself to gambling.

I know we want to become rich as much as possible but I think gambling is not a good way for this one. Before you earn big money, you will need to lose money as well. I gamble to earn money but not to become rich, and also to have fun because I know its impossible to become rich if you have a small capital.

[proTECH77]

I can fit into the last category,trying my luck when I have spare money to spend.Only people with the intention og get rich quick will say gambling is bad when they can't find a win even they will continue to play by saying that so they are here to make money but tey are the reason behind gambling industry's success.

Even me too, although not a full time gambler but part time gambler, i gamble for purely entertainment and often time i do win big. Never had any reason to use my savings for gambling, but can use my remains from expenditures to gamble.
