Almost everyone that engaged in gambling did so with the sole aim to making money through winnings from their bets, and I don't think there's any reasonable gambler that goes on comfortably smiling in the process of losing his money to gambling no matter how little in amount the stake might be.

For I often wonder how gambling will look like for a gambler going on for days or weeks be it with online casinos or betshops without winning even a stake but then I discovered a certain guy around my neighborhood that I met within one of the betshops around my street that enjoys and derives pleasure in just playing gambling even without winning any stake. Like this guy has no big deal with losing his bets as long he keeps on playing and it baffles me if it's a psychological issue or what?

For it baffles me that someone could decide to engage into gambling only because of the pleasure he claims to derive while engaging in it as opposed to making profit or winning money which is every gamblers most concern.
Just yo raise some discussion, could this be a psychological related issues or is just a normal thing?
Also, have you come across such persons and what was your expression?

There is no fun in gambling if you can not only risk the amount of money you can afford to lose, if you risk more and you gamble more, you will lose more and it will become a problem. There are psychological effect in gambling, you lose and you use an amount you can afford to lose, you are not depressed, if you lose and you are used an amount too big for you to afford to lose, you are depressed. If you see gambling as income, you can use higher amount for it and lead to depression, your friend do not see gambling like that is the reason.

There are so many of these people and it's not a psychological issue at all, it's normal and it should be the right way if you understand how gambling works and that you cannot beat the house edge and it takes luck to win in the casino, you'll want to enjoy the game more because that is how a casino works, it's for your enjoyment and satisfaction, if you want to make money out of gambling you will just disappoint yourself.
So enjoy the game challenge yourself but don't expect money to come in if you win withdraw your earnings and have a drink and be satisfied that you beat the house on that session but don't expect it's always your lucky day.

it's not really surprising and it is not a psychological issue. there are gamblers/people who gamble just for entertainment, relaxation, or as a way to relieve stress, etc... believe it or not, not everyone who gambles is in it just to win or gain profit, there are actual people who find gambling for entertaining, for relaxation, etc...

If this player is a philosopher by nature, then this is quite normal. 

In life, you can concentrate not on the result, but on the process and get positive emotions and buzz from this. 

The desire for results is a feature of the Western mentality. 

People living in the east perceive life in a completely different way.  They believe that the process is more important than the result. 

Gambling is, in fact, a single combat with fate. 

Any result of gambling (losing or winning) is a confirmation that a person is still alive and can enjoy life (including by gambling).

Well, I'm not serious about gambling but for the others, this is could be. That is why even if a lose, I don't get hurt, of course, sometimes disappointed but I do understand what this gambling meant for me, it was just for pleasure. And in the first place, I don't expect to win, unlike the others who gamble a huge amount of money thinking about winning big.

In this thing, we can't assure winning, as to whether we accept or not but the truth is that gambling needs luck or else, we lose. It is not about looking for hopes but it is our decision that is why we also have accepted losses than blaming others and the site.

You cannot win every game in gambling so you need to prepare yourself that you can face the loss too. If you have prepared on how to handle the loss, then you will still drive the pleasure out of a loss (though it won't be similar to a win). In order to be prepared for a loss, the best and the most important thing which you need to do is to do risk management. Without risk management, you will lose all your capital.

Gambling is a way of life and if you want to enjoy the game challenge yourself but don't expect money to come in if you win withdraw your earnings and have a drink and be satisfied that you beat the house on that session but don't expect it's always your lucky day.

I think the person I met gambles with the amount he accepts to lose, so even though he doesn't get the jackpot, he feels happy and there are also many addicts you won't find a sign on their faces that says they are happy!!!

I think the more people lose their money the more depressed they are as you said and some people know exactly how to hide it by playing poker face but in reality, they are depressed because they don't know where they will gonna get back money to play or how they will get back the money they lose. That's why it always needs to consider before spending on anything, people should better think about whether it's important or not because regret cannot become medicine when you lose everything you have right now because of a mere bad decision.

Their is no fun in gambling when someone is beting with the amount that he can't afford to lose, we play gambling to make money after the final result, I don't think it is fun loosing money that is not worth to be lose but will only end up in depression.

Funny topic. Completely inverted view of the world. A fair majority of gamblers play for fun and they actually enjoy losing money. A significant part of gamblers play for the sake of winning the jackpot, I can call it a dream, there is nothing wrong with that. And a very small (in my opinion) part of gamblers play for the sake of earning. It doesn't take a genius to play once or twice or ten times to understand that gambling is not suitable for making money.

The feeling of euphoria even when losing is due to dopamine.  We all know what dopamine can do to our emotions. 
Quote
Dopamine – The Brains Reward System

Whenever we do something that our primitive brain finds to be good or beneficial, such as eating, procreating and exercising a neurotransmitter called Dopamine is released in our brains. This chemical messenger is synonymous with pleasure and when it is released, we can often feel a sense of euphoria.[2]
That might explain it well.


Quote
For it baffles me that someone could decide to engage into gambling only because of the pleasure he claims to derive while engaging in it as opposed to making profit or winning money which is every gamblers most concern.

I think it is the player's choice.  If he intends to have fun then he is playing for fun or he can just play for profit, while others might want to take both options.  We really can't judge these players' intentions so saying that profit is the only thing for gamblers is somehow a biased statement.

Regardless of psychology and expression, everyone has ways and criteria in making bets, especially in gambling, the method is very clearly different, there are people who bet on gambling, if they lose they are frustrated and there are those who don't care about winning and losing, means: less happy, on the contrary.

Generally, gamblers if they lose they are not happy, including me, even though I only gamble for fun and entertainment, the reason is simple even though today's gambling is with crypto, what is clear is real money, hope to deposit and bet wants to win, even if the win is slim, maybe you could say I've never found friends or people when I lose a gamble, I'm happy, I've never been, quite the opposite, even though I have reasons blah, blah, blah.

...could this be a psychological related issues or is just a normal thing?
It is normal character that is common to compulsive gamblers, the HOPE to someday win big is reassuring for them. The pleasure comes from the high expectations that they have which is usually bolstered by other peoples testimonials of winning. It has become really bad for some that they have now attributed winning to just luck regardless of strategy, hence try to gamble as much as they can in the hope that luck smiles on them some day.

Yes, it is normal in all means and in all terms, Expectations can lead us to push our limits but they can also harm us. There's really a psychological reason behind that thing and even in science it says that there's a neurotransmitter that is began to activate once we feel pressure in gambling and some other things that will make us feel happy but the thing is it will not make us feel contended and that's where the addiction to win will come , we will play as much as we can or maybe more than we can so that we will not be lose.

Gambling is something correlated with drugs. When you bet, you get an exponential grow of adrenaline, direct proportional with the amount of your bet. Also, when you lose, you take the same sensation. That's why usually

gamblers plays for lose and not for win, sensation that he proves is something similar to the drug. And, when things go outside from any form of control, you'll be addicted, and come back is not so simple.

Almost everyone that engaged in gambling did so with the sole aim to making money through winnings from their bets, and I don't think there's any reasonable gambler that goes on comfortably smiling in the process of losing his money to gambling no matter how little in amount the stake might be.

For I often wonder how gambling will look like for a gambler going on for days or weeks be it with online casinos or betshops without winning even a stake but then I discovered a certain guy around my neighborhood that I met within one of the betshops around my street that enjoys and derives pleasure in just playing gambling even without winning any stake. Like this guy has no big deal with losing his bets as long he keeps on playing and it baffles me if it's a psychological issue or what?

For it baffles me that someone could decide to engage into gambling only because of the pleasure he claims to derive while engaging in it as opposed to making profit or winning money which is every gamblers most concern.
Just yo raise some discussion, could this be a psychological related issues or is just a normal thing?
Also, have you come across such persons and what was your expression?

It is absolutely normal to have mindset like that where you keep gambling and losing money yet you have fun doing it.
Even I do gambling some times and while I know I am going to lose my money I still proceed with that.
I gamble the money which I can afford to lose which is the reason why I have fun while gambling.
If gambling is not fun then there's no point doing it.

What I think about betting and losing yet smiling is that you can only lose for few times and smile and enjoy it as fun but if keep betting and you keep losing, your countenance must change and that anxiety of losing money will start showing up. I know again that addicts never ever bet for the fun of gambling. They bet for the only purpose of winning and doubling there money. Basically then , most people don't bet for fun of it. It involves money and that is attached with some seriousness and hope to double your money.

Some people only seek for entertainment on gambling maybe because they can't socialize at all. Imo this is not a psychological problem but ways on directing your attention to other things that will give almost same benefits such as entertainment.

On the other hand, Having a consecutive lose streak should bother you no matter what you are thinking because you really need to consult a  psychiatrist if you are already experiencing this feeling because this is not normal. You might lose everything if you don't feel any resentment toward your loss.

Maybe your friend allocates enough funds for gambling just to enjoy the satisfaction that it could give despite losing. There are still people who rely on gambling just to release their stress but if we're talking about too much gambling and continuous losing streak but still smiling and feeling happy, I guess there's already an emotional problem involved. That person might be experiencing something that he relies his happiness on gambling but that's actually risky because he could possibly lose everything in the future.
