Just like visiting a cinema

[Fortify]

This have been discussed few times before and someone have to do it again maybe often, for those of you looking to become a gambler what is your motives behind it? To make money? Or to have some fun? Here is my advice to everyone of you.

Why not treat casinos the same ways like you are going to the movies or bowling? You are simply paying for the experience and the entertainment, it's either you enjoy it or you may not, can you feel me? You don't know how bad a movie can be until you watched it, so....

Casinos, either online or offline, isn't a place to win money for the 99% of people, but this same group of people want to confused or already confused themselves that they can make money gambling, this isn't the proper way. It's meant to be for fun and not so serious like your life depends on it.

If you want your life to goes on with ease, learn to be a fun gambler and not too dependent on gambling, this is what gets people f**ked, the reality of gambling is you win when it's not even expected, be a responsible gambler.

As long as you go in with a specific budget, that is comparable to other forms of entertainment and fits reasonably within your overall income, it seems perfectly normal to rationalize playing at a casino in this way. Once a week, once a month, once a year - however much you feel is an acceptable amount for you is fine. The problem comes when you cannot switch it off or walk away, but you have picked up such a habit that you are drawn to it. Addicts are usually trying to chase the game every single day and sometimes every waking moment thinking up schemes on how to play for longer, that is when a serious problem has kicked in. If you ever have second thoughts about breaking off an activity, maybe it is time to give it a rest for a while, moderation is key in life.

Really hard to treat up gambling on just like you are seeing or watching a movie in a cinema, there are really just that things that you cant really be able to treat out something similar just because
they cant really be just that something on this way on which you could really be treating them up considering that spending money and entertainment would really be on different vibe on which means
that you could really be able to get in and get out basing up into your interest but dealing up with games on which you could really be able to make yourself that entertained which is totally opposite
when you are watching a movie then it would really be an another story.

Gambling isnt bad as long you do have that kind of control and moderation but on the time that you do make yourself missed out those basic controls and discipline towards it
then this is where people do really mess up and they do already realize on things when its already too late. People cant really just be able to determine about
the things that they must do until they wrecked up.

Truth be told, I don't think there's anyone who gambles because he wants to lose. we gamble for one reason and that's to win but we shouldn't let money drive us crazy that we fail to adhere to simple gambling principles. I don't see gambling as going to the cinema to watch a movie, if I want to go to the cinema, I'd just go to the cinema. I don't gamble because I want to be entertained, I gamble because I want to win, I'm cautious with my approach, I work with a gambling budget and I call it quit when I'm having a bad day.

[pixie85]

That's how I like to treat gambling.

I've always felt like it's healthy to think that you pay for the experience. When you send money to a casino you pay them for the chance to use the service and the money is lost. If you get lucky and get something back to end the experience with profit that's great but don't think it's going to happen every time.

I know it's just a way of explaining a loss to myself but it helps me cope with it and I've never had any problems with depression.

[Casdinyard]

I say it's to always have fun but I know there's some hypocrisy behind it. For one, the only way you can ever have fun in the world of gambling is through earning bags, if you lose consistently there will come a point where gambling is no longer fun for you but a way to stress yourself on command. So when I gamble, I always gamble with the notion that I am here to win, not because I want the money but because I want to have fun. I have set contingencies upon myself to ensure that I don't fall off the deep end even if that is the way that I gamble, I also make sure that I don't miss out on deals and discounts on deposits to make sure that I make the most out of my money. Gambling could be fun if you know how to be fun, if you don't, you're going to have a bad time in it even if you're the most controlled person on the planet.

You wont really be finding yourself to get depressed if you have already anticipated on the thing that would definitely happen into you which is "losing money".Whenever you are really that getting involved with gambling then its always been that wise that you should already anticipate on what would gonna happen so that on the time that you would be facing up losses then you wont really be finding yourself ending up like a mad man.
Gambling is really just that for fun and dont expect something like an assured winning into it because if you do then it would really be just making you desperate and this is something not really that recommended at all.

When you do gamble then it would really be just that wise that you should really be treating it up just like your past time and it would be always better that you do have that kind of treatment so that
you wont really be finding yourself to be that impulsive when it comes to things. Visiting like a cinema or whatever activity that you are really that into.

You would really be just needing to set your mind on what it is and on how to deal with it.You wont really be finding yourself on having that gambling problem
if you do really just make yourself that responsible and this is something that must thing to be done.

The problem with some gamblers most particularly the newbies is that once they spend their money in gambling, they eventually assume that they can also make good returns out from their small capital.  Since the moment they spend might be considered their first loss, so they just don't gamble for fun but they always make sure to chase their losses as well and eventually make more money. That is why these gamblers once they lose consistently, they will never realized anymore why they are gambling in the first place which is to be entertained and make fun.

However, some responsible gamblers are still gambling for fun and not mainly for profits. But if they'll be lucky and earn more money, that's already a bonus from gambling.

[maydna]

If a person can treat gambling as entertainment, he will not gamble excessively, but instead, he can gamble responsibly. He will treat gambling as a type of entertainment so that his focus will not be on gambling alone because he knows there are many other activities that he can use to get entertainment. He can go to the cinema and watch the film he wants or do other things that are also interesting. He will not use gambling to make money, and therefore, he just has fun by gambling and to fill his free time. When a person can be a responsible gambler, he will not gamble excessively and knows when to stop gambling.

[Sandra_hakeem]

I think I've read something very sensible today...
Gambling is never Particularly made to pay you any penny simultaneously.. you're supposed to have that in mind already. It's fine to wager and that's what it is - if you decide to attach some selfish interest, thereby increasing your staking power with expectations at the end, it'll definitely fail you 99 times outta 100 tries.. make your calculations .
I'm not gonna compare it to a movie sort of - cus, it's never been advertised that way... If y'all go to see a movie, y'all know that straight but gambling is different.

[Hispo]

It is an interesting approach, really. I had not thought about wagering in a casino that way.
Usually people would pay a fix amount, around 10-20$, during the experience of going to the cinema and watch a movie, no one goes into a movie theater with the expectation of doing money but just having fun and perhaps have some luck with a date. Keeping that in mind, if I decided to deposit 10$ and managed to get myself as much as entertainment as I would get from a movie, then there would be a reason to cry over losses?
It would come down to whether the gambler had expectations, in the end. As soon as one deposits those satoshis, one should assumed them to be lost, the same way one pays for a cinema ticket.

Regardless of how many times you tell that to the other gamblers, you can't stop them from doing their activities as if they're too dependent on it. You may apply that to yourself that you're gambling for fun and have tons of discussions that people should only gamble for fun.

But we're both agreeing about that being a responsible gambler is a must. It's because there are gamblers that bet with assurance that they'll win even if it is not their money.

Going to that point, it is not really a good thing to see such strategies done by someone. So if you think that you're good paying like a cinema with those losses that will make you feel good, do it.

[Wiwo]

Exactly OP, you are on point. Gambling should be seen as entertainment and not a means of making money. If you are a discipline gambler, you will know all these because, you won't be allowed to let your emotions to control you when you are losing, and you will always set aside an amount that you will use to gamble, wherever you want to gamble to avoid you using money for important things to gamble. Any gambler that don't understand this, will end up chasing his losses and might end up being an addict.

I buy also into the idea of us approaching gambling with the 100% mindset of just seeking to have fun,  unlike what people have turned gambling to this days,  we now see people gambling all with the sole aim of winning an amount that will change their life and even possibly be gambling to make earns needs and having such mindset towards gambling will only lead you to more loses at the end.

So we just have to accept gambling for what it is,  which is fun and nothing else to that,  if ever you feel like going the extra just to chase something it then means you are becoming over bearing and at that point you can easily lose your games and ultimately lose a lot of money.

I really wouldn't compare gambling to visiting a cinema still, because while we relax with pop corn or some soda during movies, gambling in a casino might require some drink with a stronger punch like Martini or vodka. The feeling is sure different and I think gambling in a casino is more fun with friends, during a vacation, or on some special occasion of sort.
Where it becomes unhealthy is wherein it is being indulged in as a career or as a means to earn quick bucks for continual livelihood.

Uhmm I guess this is completely different form of entertainment and I guess you just cannot treat gambling like that. The ability to earn money or to win from the gambling games makes the difference and it's inevitable for someone to go to a casino not thinking about winning. Some might gamble to have fun and make money as the 2nd motive or vice versa.
Looking to have fun and make money would always come together when we are talking about going to a casino.
Movies that you watch in the cinema will get you entertained most of the time and the activities like bowling will give you enjoyable experience 100%. But gambling won't promise you that you'll not getting pissed and frustrated lol.

[lionheart78]

I always viewed gambling activities as entertainment is like watching movies in the cinema, enjoying rides, having parties, or going on outings.  So it is inevitable to spend money while engaging in the activity.  The thing is we should keep our spending in check and plan our funds to use as our bankroll before engaging in gambling activities so that it won't interfere with our daily budgets, just like how we plan our funds for outings and other money-spending entertainment activities.

[romero121]

At the beginning people spend as like spending on an entertainment. As days pass things change and people never consider it for entertainment or to have fun. The prime focus turn towards making money, once the user have got this mentality we can't expect things to go good with gambling. Maybe we can allocate fund and take a stand on never to spend above the allocation similar to what is being kept aside for a cinema or some sort of entertainment.

With a movie we pay and we are spending the time watching the movie. What we get through the movie, nothing and we appreciate how good is the cinematography, music, editing, animation and all. With gambling we can't experience it in such a way. We're risking and getting into some form of fearful move that pumps the heartbeat to the peak. This isn't good, but this is what everyone gets through gambling. For users who find themselves bored and to kill time if they wager it is beyond the limits and in such situation getting ourselves deviated to watch a movie or something is good.

The gambler should consider the gambling like the movie or cricket as like the movie time for entertainment.If the gambler doesn’t worry about the loss,So the gambler can’t get addicted to the gambling sites.The gambler will spend the entire money in the gambling sites,So only the experienced will calculate the deposit the money to use in particular game.But the less experience gambler will fail to calculate the money to the gambling in regular basis.Earning is not the important one,it’s essential to multiple the money by using the trading or gambling sites.The good money handling person will increase the number of income in a month.

In as much as many gamblers keep claiming that they gamble for fun, a very huge percentage of them are in it for the money. And the truth is that it's almost impossible for someone to not be tempted to stake more so they'll get more (be it for fun or not). If you must gamble, my advice is that you should have discipline. Have a limit for both win and loss, have a time frame to gamble, learn the game, and not cross the line. Also, note that slow and steady wins the race.

Changing the way you view something isn't simple for most people. It could take time before they can adapt and for other gamblers, it might not happen because they can't remove the thought of making money or chasing losses. I used to play for profit when I started and the entertainment part is only a bonus while i'm winning. After countless losses, it shifted the other way because it's one of the few ways that helped me from spending more than my budget.

I really wouldn't compare gambling to visiting a cinema still, because while we relax with pop corn or some soda during movies, gambling in a casino might require some drink with a stronger punch like Martini or vodka.

I agree, it's not the best comparison when the others already mentioned a few good reasons, but it's enough to understand what OP is pointing out.

[famososMuertos]

Hi, Crypt0Gore... 

At least you touched on the subject of addiction with other "music."

I always say it's entertainment, but! Using your analogy, maybe someone who is a fan of going to the movies could start to like acting, making movies and/or devoting themselves to the seventh art.

So, indeed we can have many equivalences, someone once, in lost conversations, told me that going to a casino for him was like going to a brothel... please, no comments, but the point is to always know what you are doing, there are "entertainment" that can be very harmful.
