Why are you gambling?

[swogerino]

I gamble for fun and my weekly bankroll is the amount I get from the signature campaign plus some small amount I get as I work and maintain some mining boards for a few of my colleagues.If I win is great and if I lose I  comfort myself that I did not put any money in gambling from my main income,my monthly payroll.I always play online as I like playing relaxed and from the comfort of my home.

[peter0425]

I only gamble for leisure and nothing else. Of course there is nothing I could get through it but enjoyment and it should not be out of addiction. If my budget is out, then I refrain from gambling. This way, addiction from it all never be an issue.

It was good you gambling for fun and with the amount you can afford to lose but I believe you still need to put your emotion (buzz) and priority in check cause a situation where you won't be able to comfort yourself concern the fund you lost may happen by any chance.
Concern the OP question, I gamble when it believes I need something to light me up and it just for some moment.

Many new gamblers come to gambling place or online gambling because of curiosity. They are not thinking about enjoying, fun, or even making money from gambling. But soon, after they come over and over, some of them decide to make money from gambling, which is very difficult to do because they need to have luck. But some of them decide that gambling is only to have fun and to enjoy the game because they know that winning in gambling games need luck.

Especially when they know crypto they will try to gamble as there's a lot of gambling sites in the space.
When I was new, I was curious about dice and I really enjoyed it because I haven't played it outside crypto and until now I am still enjoying it.

If they are not enjoying, they would not be playing it, the fun is always there when you are still playing, only when you loss you will feel the sadness or you might regret on losing your money.

But as you keep gambling, you learn and you get matured and eventually you understand your real chances.

I tell you, based on my experience, when I was new I was too aggressive but as I learn due to my experience I became more realistic and become more ready of possible loses.

I don't agree about the curiosity to be the reason why new gamblers gamble online because the convenience level of gambling in the kitchen, home, anywhere at ease while no one will disturb or suddenly broke into a fight and the cheap level of online gambling, is the reason why new gamblers choose to gamble online than using physical casino etc.

Do you bet on the results of your hard work? I mean like the result of a signature campaign. if yes, do you feel fun and enjoying when you lose? will certainly be sad as you say. so how can someone gamble by spending their money, but they still feel fun and enjoying. but different cases, if we play gambling from free money, such as a giveaway, or get money from gambling friends, so when we lose we can still feel fun and enjoying.

Yes, that happens too with me. I heard from my friends that playing gambling was so easy, and we only need to have some coins, play any game we want, and wait for the result. For me, curiosity take someplace before I knew to gamble.

We will not be enjoying the game if we lose a lot of money. I know how it feels because I already got those experiences and have many times to get lost.

But that will not stop me to gamble, but I am trying to learn to control myself, so I don't have to lose a lot of money. There will be a time for new gamblers or us to learn from our mistakes so we can be better people when we play gambling.

No problem if you do not agree because maybe you will have your option. But for me, curiosity will be the reason I knew gambling, and although right now, I don't use much money in gambling, the curiosity has already change into enjoying and fun, and not for money. For the crypto gambler, gambling can be a way for them to playing gambling without coming to the gambling places and meet many people. They can play crypto online gambling from every place they want.

[bhabygrim]

I guess I used to gamble back then to enjoy and pass the time when I am bored and lonely.
Thanks to some gambling sites I enjoy my time playing and having a nice chat with other gamblers.
Now that I think about it , It is clear that it was the only reason why I gamble to pass my time and enjoy it .

[AniviaBtc]

I run a small poll, on the topic of "Why you gamble," it goes without saying why you chose the option.
I would also like to know how old you started to gamble?
 
If you select an option(1,23,4,5,6), reply

1.Enjoying- How much money does it go to weekly?
2.I love- Do you also like alcohol, as you like gambling?
3.Hope for a win- How much did you earn in one day?
4.Fun- You play Offline or online casino?
5.I'm addicted- Ever since you found out you are a betting addict, what is your problem, does your father, grandfather or anybody else gamble a lot?
6.Other- What is the option, explain to us a little better?

The reason why I gamble is I want to enhance my good decision making skill and to test my luck. Also, I want to entertainment myself when I'm alone as well as earning money if I won a certain amount of bet. I don't do gambling because I want to become rich but I do gambling because I want to enjoy all of my assets and money.

It is very impossible for me to become a doper at these things because first of all, I can manage myself and my emotions so when I want to stop, I'll stop.

[beerlover]

Honestly, the answer of this changes depending on my mood and what I play and how much money I have.

Sometimes, I play on sportsbooks because it increases the fun I get from soccer matches, I used to watch them and get bored very easily because the results were always boring no matter who won unless something major is going on (like champions league is always fun but is regular season game is still fun?) so I gamble on the game and watch it and get a lot more fun.

If I gamble on dice or something similar then I usually gamble as low as possible and don't spend too much money, I just want to pass some time since I am bored and dice could give me some reason to kill time a bit. And sometimes I gamble on poker because it is the most fun I could get if it goes well and it is not so well if it is not going well, 50%-50% chance of having a great fun or being upset depending on cards I get dealt.

[Chrystora123]

3.Hope for a win- How much did you earn in one day?

I'm not gamble every day.. 70% of my gambling activities are sports betting and lottery, while 30% are dice. so I don't have a definitive answer on how much money I make from gambling every day.  but I always make a little money from big football matches

4.Fun- You play Ofline or online casino?

I never go to online casinos because the legal rules in my country are very strict towards casinos and prohibiting casinos.  I always gamble in online casinos, because it is very efficient, hassle-free, the animation offered by online casinos is very interactive.

As long as you play gambling for the sole purpose of entertainment, you wont do it on regular basis and strict schedule. Majority of the gamblers do that. The main reason behind this is their different approach. They consider gambling as a good way to make money without doing any real hard work. This belief has no truth in it. People should try to gamble with the same mindset as yours.

[shoreno]

why am i playing  gambling ? well i play because i want to earn   profit  . that was my first reason on why i tried gambling but my secondary reason was to have fun or the kill the boredom because i am also a full time worker and my life so stressful and sometimes boring because of the long work  . sometimes my happines can turn into sadness and depresion but im trying to fight it so that i can keep coming back on the gambling arena in the hopes of earning for more  .

[l3pox]

I don't gamble, but it was quite interesting to see the highest result on the poll is "hope"
definiltey a big thing.

https://ritholtz.com/2011/02/the-zurich-axioms/

not yet but i will check later when im home.thanks

not for beliefs or anything like that.
I'm usually just to busy doing life things, rehearsing or execising.
What I do for fun is posting on bitcointalk. :}

too busy to gambling.
even thought some altcoins are like a gamble.

[Yatsan]

Just for fun, to enjoy. Sometimes when I play to earn some money, I am ending up losing my money, so after those experiences, I completely stop in gambling. And now I am just playing for fun or to kill the boredom when I have nothing to do. And sometimes me and my friends are going to the casino to have some fun and have bonding time, but when I am playing online, it's just for fun and entertainment.

actually there's a voting mate in OP,but thats all what most of us do,sometimes play to win and sometimes play to have fun but the best thing is self control because even how good our intentions in playing but we dont have self control?the chance of becoming addicted is there.and i knew it because some of my friend turns to be one but from the start they are responsible gamblers though GREED is the root of everything.

good that you have completely learn the lessons and may not do it again,its fun to enjoy gambling so theres no need to waste tons of money.

[Fundamentals Of]

I am into gambling primarily for fun. But I also want to win of course. So I voted for the two reasons for my gambling activities.

3.Hope for a win- How much did you earn in one day?

Some days I win but some days I also lose. So days I gamble but some days I also don't gamble. So I cannot make an estimate.

4.Fun- You play Ofline or online casino?

I play offline casino but I also play online casino. Depending on the specific occasion and company.
