I believe we all, or most of us are back from the new year celebration already ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) , my greetings to everyone of you and pray this year brings us the best of luck as gamblers. Now, I have a simple question, first, let me say that I am an advocate of gambling for fun, and I personally believe that gambling for fun does not necessarily means you should completely ignore the aspect of money making through gambling, it just simply means that we should not prioritize making money off gambling over doing it for fun, and this is because, some gamblers out of prioritizing gambling for money over over gambling as a means of having fun, end up gambling irresponsibly which leads to alot of financial issues and even gambling disorders. So, one question I want to ask is, if games were built to be played with money on casinos like we do now, with absolutely no chances of making money even when you win a game, would you still be spending money playing this games or betting on sports games? Please let's discuss, and remember, keep it as constructive as possible and cast your vote on the pool as well.

Definitely not. I can maybe tolerate an entry fee to access the different games, I will pay to join a football prediction game, if that allows me play all season. But if I had to pay each time I play with no chance of winning, I would decline that offer. There are free ways to have fun. - Jay -

Why would really be needing to pay up something just to have some fun if you could actually be able to attain those things for free? Even if we do say that the amount involved or fee wont really be that too big. It wont really be that called gambling in the first place if it doesnt really get involved on having that betting. Peoples interest would really be that low or nearly to be zero considering that earning profits or winnings couldnt really be just that possible. So it would really be that your own personal choice if ever you do agree with this kind of stuff. We do know that gambling industry becomes so big just because people do really love to deal up with things on which it could really be potentially be able to make money. Interest would be gone if you cant really be able to do so.

Bro, honestly, I think gambling is more interesting because of the fun and also the opportunity to win some money, which can both be archivable. Most people are gamblers today because they believe more in winning money than having fun, while only a few gamblers are gambling for fun. In my honest opinion, gambling without winning some people will make no sense and will not be of interest to many people if it was only developed for having fun without adding the money-winning feature.
Your poll has just two options, and it's quite complicated for me to pick any option yet because I am actually thinking of an option that you did not add to your poll. If gambling were built in such a way that gamblers would only gamble for fun, I would definitely gamble, but I would be more conscious of how much I will be spending to gamble. You know what that means.
I got into gambling through my friends, and it was more on the notion of making some cash as a side hustle. Although there was still the feeling of having fun, my friends actually made me feel it was just some kind of simple thing where you stake and win some money easily, but it was not. So, maybe if there was no means of winning money from gambling, I may not have known gambling in the first place because my friends would not have introduced me to it.
Currently, I don't put serious time into gambling as before and I don't care much about losses and wining because of work and other stuffs that is taking my time.

Of course why not. Since it will be for entertainment I will pay to have that fun. I could remember going to the amusement park with my uncle and his family.the games there are to be paid for before you c an have access to play them. I will see it like a service business where you pay and play any game of your choice. But let the truth be told I wouldn't do that often. I will only do it once in a while unlike now that you can win or loss. This is what makes it more interesting due to the thrill. But I don't think that we will have more gamblers like we have today because at first most gamblers gamble for profit before they will realize the main purpose of gambling that is should be for fun.

There has been a lot of talk about the reality of gamblers “gambling for fun”. I think most people are in denial about the subject. I don’t think anyone would be interested in gambling if there wasn’t nothing at stake. The thrill of winning is what excites gamblers and makes the gambling casinos one of the biggest markets in the world. I doubt people would be interested if there was no reward in gambling. Little wonder why many people do not like to play demo game.

I can't stand it if there is absolutely no chance of getting the money from the winnings I want even though my gambling goal is to have fun. This is the honest answer behind the gambling that I play.
If in the 10 games I play, I hope there will be at least a win, not all of them will be in a losing situation, aka not making any money at all. If the situation at the casino I play at holds true, I will switch to playing sports games. Sports betting is my favorite bet. Other games are just to test luck.

Nah, I don't think so. Because if I wanted to do something that's solely for fun, I'd have decided to either watch the game or probably invest my time in reading a book of finding more money, because if you look at it, I'm spending cash to stake those games and since I know I won't be able to get something tangible in return, why waste the funds? Some will argue that they indulge in gambling just for fun or to wile away the time and if you check, these are individuals who have set aside a specific amount to play and won't beat themselves up if they don't win, but still we all have it at the back of our minds to win.

Depending on the games, if it is house games that I drive real entertainment from as I am involved in the games then I will likely continue to gamble even when I record losses since I drive fun from them but although I still have more motivations if I win more than I lose.
But when it comes to games like football, if I lose consistently I can decide to stop betting for a while since I will still enjoy watching the match regardless if whether I bet on them or not, the thing is that, there is a tin line between enjoying the games and losing or taking risk by betting on them.

Let me take you, for instance Op, There's a place where I normally go to play the snooker game with some of my friends and with others within the environment, before you will join the game one of the rules is that you have to pay to partake in the game while in the end we make no money from it but rather we played for fun. Therefore, in as much as there will be fun in that game then I will continue to gamble with my money, but in a situation where there is no chance of making money and as well no fun in it then why would I spend my money?

I still cannot understand.
Most gambling always wins you some money, no matter how small is the money it still is. I think everyone have some logic, If you not win something for what purpose we are doing a gamble ? Most of answer for your question is gonna to be a same.
The answer is no, we are not doing any gamble if we don't win something.

So, one question I want to ask is, if games were built to be played with money on casinos like we do now, with absolutely no chances of making money even when you win a game, would you still be spending money playing this games or betting on sports games?

Thank you OP for making this statement and question for me this is quite interesting, ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) and I think that if indeed casinos do not make money as the main object in winning then I will answer it simply that there will be few people interested in gambling, because lately gambling especially online-based such as slot machines is very common, almost most adults know this type of gambling and are involved in it so the level of addiction is increasing every year. One thing I know and this seems to be a true fact is that it is not uncommon for me to find that lately many people come with the intention of earning by ignoring the possible risks involved in gambling. The logic is that the winnings in gambling are money (in random amounts) and while on the other hand doesn't everyone want money? Of course, and I think this could also be one of the big reasons why more and more people are coming to get involved. So in essence with the question you asked I think if it wasn't money as the main form of winnings or for example just regular winnings without getting anything then I don't think anyone would go to the extent of going overboard and maybe they would just come for the fun of it, gamblers wouldn't be as likely to get involved if there was no chance of doubling up.

I believe we all, or most of us are back from the new year celebration already ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) , my greetings to everyone of you and pray this year brings us the best of luck as gamblers. Now, I have a simple question, first, let me say that I am an advocate of gambling for fun, and I personally believe that gambling for fun does not necessarily means you should completely ignore the aspect of money making through gambling, it just simply means that we should not prioritize making money off gambling over doing it for fun, and this is because, some gamblers out of prioritizing gambling for money over over gambling as a means of having fun, end up gambling irresponsibly which leads to alot of financial issues and even gambling disorders. So, one question I want to ask is, if games were built to be played with money on casinos like we do now, with absolutely no chances of making money even when you win a game, would you still be spending money playing this games or betting on sports games? Please let's discuss, and remember, keep it as constructive as possible and cast your vote on the pool as well. My answer is No, I will not spend money just to gamble with no expected money in return. Even though sometimes I always lose in gambling, at least there I somehow know that there is a chance to win, unlike your question that we pay an entry fee to play but the hope of winning is immediately dashed because there's really no chance. Let's be honest, all gamblers who play in casino houses carry with them the hope that they will win no matter how much they spend, especially now that our world revolves in money. so it is very impossible if there are people who enjoy gambling if there is no chance to win. It's like you're just wasting money and time for nothing.

It is a waste of money if you're aware that you have no chance of winning. I know that it is gambling but even in the toughest games, you can still have that little chance of winning.
Are there games that are like this? It is just a situational matter but I don't think that many are going to spend money when we're totally aware that you have zero chance of winning.
Maybe for the experience, there will be who wants to try it out and are good losing a bit of their hard earned money.

Now, I have a simple question, first, let me say that I am an advocate of gambling for fun, and I personally believe that gambling for fun does not necessarily means you should completely ignore the aspect of money making through gambling, it just simply means that we should not prioritize making money off gambling over doing it for fun, and this is because, some gamblers out of prioritizing gambling for money over over gambling as a means of having fun, end up gambling irresponsibly which leads to alot of financial issues and even gambling disorders. So, one question I want to ask is, if games were built to be played with money on casinos like we do now, with absolutely no chances of making money even when you win a game, would you still be spending money playing this games or betting on sports games? Please let's discuss, and remember, keep it as constructive as possible and cast your vote on the pool as well. Did chose on the pole and definitely other members too. Hell no, why would I waste my money doing something that has no chance of bringing me money back in return? Those are the primary words that i do have in mind is on why would the hell i would be spending money on betting on sports games if i do know that you cant get something back from it? Also, it wont really be called betting or gambling in the first place because you arent really that betting literally or simply its not a gamble after all. You are just basically paying up for the thing that you are watching which i dont see for people to get interested to it. Its true that there are other things on which we can enjoy without really needing to pay up something on which it would really be just that right that people would really be sticking into that rather than on spending something which they could eventually get it for free.

If you can not win back some money, then it is not gambling but just for fun and very few people will play it. Those who will play such are those who are really playing for the fun of it but it is called betting because you are staking to win something and not just the fun. Many gamblers bet to win and not for fun. Therefore, if there is a game that I have to pay to play without means that I should get rewarded if I win the game then I won't be playing.

Everyone's views on this topic will always vary and in my opinion the available pool will not be very useful. anyway, in my view, the money we risk when gambling, whether playing slots or betting on sports, is to make the gambling activity we do more interesting, for me personally gambling is both (the fastest way to make money and a good way for entertainment), if someone says he doesn't gamble for money but purely for entertainment, rest assured he's lying, or he's afraid to use his money and only plays on a demo account lol.

No. The chances of making money from playing games is the motivation behind gambling for us. The reward for spending my hard earned money that I can afford to lose on gambling is to make more money from gambling and sports betting. If there is an alternative reward for gambling and sports betting other than the promise of monetary gains, I'll still gamble. If there is none at all, we'd participate in other activities.

No, I mean, staking money and winning money or something is one of the big parts of what makes gambling fun(and dangerous), if you remove that part of gambling you remove the majority of what makes gambling fun. if someone says he doesn't gamble for money but purely for entertainment, rest assured he's lying, or he's afraid to use his money and only plays on a demo account lol.
believe it or not, some people gamble purely for entertainment. this doesn't mean that they don't care about winning and making money from gambling, it just means they don't expect to make money from it every time they gamble and they understand that losing is part of gambling.

Personally, my interest in gambling would diminish if the chances of making money were gone, even if I claim to still gamble for fun. It's different when you expect to earn a profit when you win, right? For me, the excitement and thrill of the game would disappear without the potential financial gain; it's no longer enough to draw me in. The money involved still has a significant appeal, which is why we are eager to try our luck in gambling. Perhaps I'll just look for other activities that offer similar excitement but with tangible benefits. They say the primary purpose and main goal should be entertainment, but if the bonus of financial gain is lost, it's no longer considered gambling.
