Do you consider gambling to be a "fun activity"?

The reason why you see people post this in this section is they have to make up their quota for the gambling signature campaigns. Dont take all of them seriously but report posts that you think are offtopic.

Thanks for explaining this, now it all makes sense why some posts seem to be completely out of context in many threads here.

Winning in gambling may feel like fun but once that turns into losses, it's not fun anymore.

Seconded.

Do you feel fun when you lose $100?
What about losing $1000 or $10000 when you gamble? Does it make you feel it was all fun?

I see many posters here in this Gambling Discussion forum claiming (usually with broken English) that gambling is fun, that there is no pain nor suffering when you lose money... because it's all fun, it's great, the best thing in the world ....

So I'd like to ask you honestly - how is it "fun" when you lose money? What makes it fun - the prediction of what's gonna happen next? The winnings make it fun? But no one can win 100% of the times, right? (except for the house)

I'd love to see one of those posters explain to me, rationally, how exactly they perceive it to be fun? Please try to explain yourself rationally (with broken English if necessary).

it depends on a person. losing $100, $1000 or $10000 might not be ok or fun for someone but is still fun or ok for others. in short different people will have different views about how fun gambling is.
gambling habit is probably one of the bases of how a gambler view if gambling is fun or not. I, myself consider gambling a "fun activity" since I only gamble the amount I know I can lose. and having that kind
of habit is the reason why I consider gambling is fun. it doesn't strain me financially if I lose, I get a chance to win/increase my money, I get entertained from playing the game.

lol . the broken english thingy makes me feel laugh while reading   . loosing is not fun for me but its stressing and makes me feel so bad but this negative feelings turn into positive whenever i won something descent when gambling   .

 most of the time i play because i want to profit but sometimes when im not in the mood i just play gambling with smaller bets just to pass the time and to have fun , when i loose it does not make feel down but i still enjoyed it  .

[ashmodeus]

well , how to say ,
i actually a bit confused how to explain what a kind of fun on gambling, its just fun for me.
losing of course a pain from it, but besides it , did u consider about u may lose on gambling, and u didn't think about it ?
as long u consider about that, u will enjoying playing a gambling.
i mean , forget about how to win , just play well,relax , consistent .

* It could be enjoyed if it is beneficial to the gamblers.

* Not really a good idea to enjoy luck-based gambling.

* If you must enjoy skill-based gambling, you have to be good at it first and even earning sufficient income from it.

* Otherwise gambling (especially luck-based gamblings) should be done moderately

I feel fun when I lose $10 in sports betting, why not $100? because I can afford to lose $10. That means I can feel fun when i lose in gambling where I have money that I can afford to lose.

I love sports betting, it's fun when you bet in matches and you watch the game, if you are a sports fan, you will know how it feels really fun. Therefore I do not make money in gambling, it is better not to gamble if your goal is to make money.

No matter how much one loses, no one is happy to lose money, many suffer anxiety and regret after losing all their money on gambling.
Gambling is like a stimulant and sometimes people come to it to relieve psychology. During the gambling time they find the emotions they desire, something that motivates people to gamble. I have a friend, he gambles every day and often loses, to this point he becomes a debtors.
I personally think that gambling is a fun time, but that joy disappears as soon as you lose all your money.

It's fun because there's a probability to make a profit. I mostly bet on esports matches, the thrill you get when watching the game you're betting on is what makes it fun. I gotta say betting makes watching the game twice as exciting. It's even more fun when you're winning and gain some profit, oh that feeling, it's satisfying.

You're correct it isn't as fun when you're losing, though. That's why I try to be as careful as possible before placing the bets to minimize the risk. Analyzing the teams, watching the news, etc those are part of the fun too.

The concept of fun is relative to what it happens during a session of gameplay.If we for example start playing slots with 1000 dollars and hit some big win and make 20000 out of this 1000 dollars this is considered definitely a lot of fun.If it happens that we lose this amount and add another 1000 that we also lose it,in this case this is definitely a fun thing to happen.

Every time i gamble i feel fun and happy for it even i lose big or small amount because i feel the fun for it. Some gamblers are very sensitive if they are lose they feel so bad and they are feel so unlucky. Some are very happy if they are win gamble is very hard to win and need to be luck for us to win. And be happy and have some fun even they lose some or big.

A lot of emotions, a lot of up and a lot of down but it's all fun...

As long as you play with money that you can afford to lose. Same rules apply with any investment, of course including Bitcoin and alt coins 

[michellee]

I don't feel fun if I have to lose $100 because so far, I don't spend that amount in one-time only. Maybe in a week, I only use less than $10 to buy some coins and send it to the gambling sites. I don't mind to lose $2-$3 every time I played gambling because, for me, gambling is not a source of income, but gambling is one way to playing many gambling games and enjoy my free time.

[Ailmand]

It depends on your financial capability if $100, $1000' or any amount is just a small amount for you and you are capable it would not matter, but still that is a huge amount of money. Some people spends thousands of dollar to have fun.

Losing money in gambling is not fun and no one wants it. Even some gamblers says they are playing to entertain themselves or to relieve stress but if you didnt win when you play (even once) still it is depressing especially if you didnt use a spare money.

I dont gamble with huge capital or money that I cant afford to lose, im prepared for the outcome since its my choice to gamble even I know its risky. Maybe for gamblers that are well-off, money is not an issue so they can gamble regardless of how much they win or lose as long as they are having fun.

There are two types of people in online casinos, even in offline, the rich one and the regular guy. The rich one is the one who enjoys playing gambling to the fullest while the regular one sometimes enjoy it, but most of the time he doesn't, to make the story short, you can't have fun playing gambling if you're after the profits, you could only enjoy it if you will gamble with free satoshis or if you'll gamble only the amount you can afford to lose.

[AliMan]

Gambling for me can be both profitable and source of fun, at the same time you'll be gaining joyful activities linked with gambling bets. As you continue to make yourself entertained with several types of gambling, you enjoyed so much despite of losing such amount. However, it doesn't guarantee us more possiblity to win at all times but the important factors in gambling was treating it as a form of past time and not a serious bond.

[Eclipse26]

Gambling is fun. Why? Because it was for fun and entertainment but this happiness stop when you keep on losing money. Who would find it fun right? That's why in order for us to just enjoy gambling, limit ourselves so we can avoid spending too much money on gambling. We have our season of luck...

Guess what make all of these much more fun?

you won at 2x and get additional profits as you are betting with altcoins that the value where your betslip settled increased drastically upto 100percents so basically you just hit a jackpot of 3times instead won it at 2 times haha
but you must admit that it was fun until you get hit but the unexpected big losses or a streak losses.
that will messed all of your fun moments in a second, in a blink of an eye.

start with some fun and always ends it with misery , that is the eternal law of gambling, you can not go against them unless you are lucky enough to be part of the rare 0.1% who make it fun all the time.

Gambling is like Trading, Bet only what you are willing to lose if you bet $100, $1000 or even $10000 if that is all money you've got and you bet in on gambling site there is something wrong with you. Never bet like that unless you have so much money and willing to lose. Gambling is a very risky thing. Maybe it is fun for others and not for you we have a different status in life.

[Ryker1]

Well, it still depends on the gamblers of how they treat gambling. If you gamble just for fun that something will make you entertain, that's no problem and if you gamble just for hoping you will win that's no problem. And yes, I will consider gambling is just for fun activity. I know that because I know my self what is gambling and the possible consequences if I did not make my self have control in playing gambling. Be responsible for gambling and you will be fine.
