gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit.

[Blitzboy]

`

Gamblers have multiple reasons for their activities, and it also includes fun. Not everyone is there for the money. But, on a bit of it, the gamblers also require money to gamble. So, one way or another the gambler would want to win money. Yet it doesn't mean it's his priority. Whether there is a win or not, the fun gambler doesn't care. Those who gamble for money, most of the time, don't find themselves happy if they don't find themselves some wins. The struggle gets worse if he desperately goes for those wins. Which could affect his gambling habit, and lead to compulsive gambling. Such things as this makes the player to regret his gambling habit, becuase he can lose out all his money on the process. So, it's not that the fun gamblers don't want to play for money, no. They also need money to creep in, but they're not worried over if it arrives or not. Thereby, keeping clean their mental and emotional confidence. Less worries.

It's true that some find thrill in the trip rather than the reward. Noting this difference is vital, right? Some fun gamblers are resilient, I've noticed. No game outcome affects their mental health. Your stance is admirable.

The drive of victory appears more dangerous. I've seen this desire turn from a harmless interest into a painful one when loses rise and sorrow grows. It shows how the need to win overshadows the fun of gambling. I see the appeal of this pursuit, but it's a slippery slope.

Of course, winnings are important, but fun gambling requires money, as you noted. My attitude is that winnings are a bonus, not the aim. For emotional and mental strength, I recommend this mindset. Find joy in the deed, not the result.

No body plays gamble for fun. rather play to try luck if it will be a means to financial end. And the Quest to achieve this task has been an endless journey. Because people who came with the intention to play this game and cashout out has turn to a regular customer of loosing fund to casino sites. Some have sold all there belonging to make sure they could win and yet they couldn't win as expected. Some people who never took gambling serious  were able to win big what am ironic situation.

The amount I can invest that will make gambling to become more emotional to me, is $20 and above. because it's a big amount of money. despite it is a peanut money to some people, because I know what that amount could afford In my country.

For gamblers who cannot control themselves to stop gambling if the set limit runs out due to their losses, then this gambler will not be able to gamble for fun. However, for those who can be disciplined, they consider gambling as a place to find his luck with a minimum deposit and never exceed the limit of money that they think is worth for gambling, maybe he can find the fun side of the gambling. I think gamblers like this not just thinking about doubling their money and winnings. But, they are trying to entertain him self with his money to gamble and have fun with that.

Gamblers have multiple reasons for their activities, and it also includes fun. Not everyone is there for the money. But, on a bit of it, the gamblers also require money to gamble. So, one way or another the gambler would want to win money. Yet it doesn't mean it's his priority. Whether there is a win or not, the fun gambler doesn't care. Those who gamble for money, most of the time, don't find themselves happy if they don't find themselves some wins. The struggle gets worse if he desperately goes for those wins. Which could affect his gambling habit, and lead to compulsive gambling. Such things as this makes the player to regret his gambling habit, becuase he can lose out all his money on the process. So, it's not that the fun gamblers don't want to play for money, no. They also need money to creep in, but they're not worried over if it arrives or not. Thereby, keeping clean their mental and emotional confidence. Less worries.

Classifying gamblers as fun or profit hunters simplifies a complex subject. All gamblers realize the stakes are money. Their risk-reward connection distinguishes them. Aren't you foolish to say fun gamblers don't care about wins and losses? Success still depends on money. The difference is how they handle gaming results. This is about human psychology and money value, not fun or desperation

Compulsion to gamble is more than just a desire to win. Control (or lack thereof) and psychological triggers that transform casual to compulsive are key. There's no point in romanticizing or demonizing gambling without considering its effects on society and individuals

Of course, winnings are important, but fun gambling requires money, as you noted. My attitude is that winnings are a bonus, not the aim. For emotional and mental strength, I recommend this mindset. Find joy in the deed, not the result.

Yes, everyone knows that winning when gambling is very important. It's just that our mindset must be used in managing behavior when gambling, meaning playing gambling responsibly and being fun. I think we all have to understand that gambling is not just about seeking financial gain where it should be. We can get that from outside gambling, for example working part time or just doing business and trading which also produces financial benefits too.

The point is that we should never try to have a goal just to seek financial gain, but try to change the mindset of gambling just to have fun and not make us feel like we have a high desire to achieve financial gain in gambling, in fact the winnings should only be used as a bonus from the game gambling that we play and it must be instilled in our mindset, even though it depends on how we manage our mindset correctly or not, it all depends on ourselves because that way we can know how to play gambling responsibly and correctly, which will keep us from from gambling addiction.

Playing gambling with the aim of having fun can go hand in hand with the aim of making a profit, I agree with what you say regarding responsible gambling, managing your way of thinking to be able to control your emotions when to stop. I have a friend who gambles with a small capital of around 50 dollars, he gambles almost every day and with the aim of having fun. But when he gets a profit of around 20 dollars, he will stop and invest it in buying coins. He doesn't always win, but he does it like that almost very often. I think if you are not too ambitious and greedy, it is very possible to do it every day, concerns about gambling addiction cannot be avoided. However, what is clear is that in my opinion these two things can go together, depending on how someone manages their ambitions.

Yes, it is true because only self-control is able to minimize the number of big defeats or what it means is that by having good self-control and control then indirectly this will be very useful to minimize the possibility of losing large amounts, because obviously when emotions dominate then it is very difficult to ignore some actions out of control because you are in a hot situation due to a defeat that you cannot accept. I understand that even in a state of emotion you can get a win that may be quite large but the problem is that yes as you said that they will definitely put that amount of money back for a much bigger win, the point is that there is no limit here except when they run out of all their money.

Yes we can make other people's bad experiences as learning material, especially learning what people who are addicted do so that it makes them experience a lot of problems and one that has become a common mistake is that they gamble excessively and that means we really have to avoid things that can ultimately make us fall into the abyss, the point is that in my opinion we must have limits in gambling and the right understanding.

With this self-control, they can reduce the number of losses and will not try to gamble beyond their limits. They will always be careful when playing gambling, including spending money to place bets, and maybe they will try to always use bets with small money and always limit their gambling games. By implementing these restrictions, they can avoid losing a lot so that they don't get involved in any problems and can enjoy gambling as they should. They also will not experience a significant increase in emotions because, with self-control, they can maintain a balance between getting pleasure from gambling and also using gambling as entertainment.

Learning from other people's experiences can give us insight and open our eyes in gambling, we have to be really careful because there are many temptations that we will encounter, so by studying other people's experiences, we can avoid making mistakes. By always being careful when playing gambling, we can become responsible gamblers who know how to respond to gambling so that we don't fall deeper into gambling.

This is a good and healthy approach to gambling and people will be able to implement all the recommended actions along with many restrictions when they come with the right mindset and point of view about gambling, all of this should start from the very beginning of your involvement, By this I mean that you will easily be able to apply a lot of restrictions as well as avoid overdoing it when you come with the right understanding about gambling such as understanding that it is nothing more than a profit-making activity that also involves much greater risks and with this then I am sure you will not be too bold to do silly actions such as risking large amounts or other things that are really not recommended. On the other hand, when you have the right understanding and mindset, you will definitely tend to think more about risk management rather than chasing something that has no certainty like winning, and the point is that you can stay fine if you gamble based on a correct understanding of the concept of gambling.

Ever since I have been in this gambling board I have seen lot of questions if this kind and my resolution to it is just I don't have a specific purpose for gambling because the two purpose of gambling here is the core reason for indulging in gambling. how then can I separate them and chose one it doesn't work that way.

for me I gamble for the two either fun or funds, some times it's for fun while some time it's for the money, especially when I'm broke I go for money, yes according people here it's not a response way of gambling but deep down in our hearts we are there for the money. but when im okay or my work is paying me accordingly I just put in some little set out amount and gamble for fun or play those online casino game.

For me anyone who is choosing that gambling is for fun I think its a capital lie because the objective of every gamblers is to ensure that they have make money through gambling, those who is saying that gambling is for fun they are just putting us untrue because when looking at it, it's obvious that gambling is not for fun, the essence of us gambling is because we need money to sort out our problem or issues but people in another way will start saying what is not obtainable in order to deceived some people, when you lose in gambling consequently we do have pain in our heart because is not what we expected for, any man or gamblers dreams is to make money through gambling.

Well, you are wrong, that you do not gamble for fun does not mean every other gambler do not do the same, it's wrong to generalize something which is personal to you, and maybe to some other people as well, but not to the general public.

As far as I know, gambling for fun is real, I myself do some times, spend my time and money playing a slot game that I like and love to play, I am not playing the game for monetary benefits, but simply playing the game just to have fun while time pass by.
There are several people who do gamble for fun, but the thing is that, it's not all the time, like me for example, I have games I play when I am playing for fun, and I also have games I play when I am playing to win money, it all depends on the mode I find myself, but in all, one thing I've always avoided is, gambling for more money to sort out my life issues, gambling should never be considered as a mean of making money to sort out life's issues.

[FanEagle]

Financial benefit part means that you think you could benefit from it, but the reality is that we have seen way too many people who have ended up with nothing all that crazy from gambling. If there are so many people who make money from gambling , where are they? I have seen millions of people gamble around the world, and I have seen only a few dozen that made enough to live, I do not think that it would make sense for them to keep it going.

All in all it is not going to be all that easy, but let them be, it would make sense to just let people make their own decision. If people want to gamble for fun then let them gamble for fun if they want to gamble for money then let them do that too, it is their money they can do whatever they want with it.

[borovichok]

The drive of victory appears more dangerous. I've seen this desire turn from a harmless interest into a painful one when loses rise and sorrow grows. It shows how the need to win overshadows the fun of gambling. I see the appeal of this pursuit, but it's a slippery slope.

Of course, winnings are important, but fun gambling requires money, as you noted. My attitude is that winnings are a bonus, not the aim. For emotional and mental strength, I recommend this mindset. Find joy in the deed, not the result.

No doubt, if the drive to win overshadows the fun it is dangerous but then gambling for fun doesn`t mean that you are immune from the dangers of gambling especially when you have lost control.

I have a story to buttress this point. A gambler who was so rich was always gambling and even inviting friends to his house to gamble and each time he was asked why he gambled so much he claimed to be having fun and pleasure from it. Sometimes he travels out of state just to experience gambling in other states because of his passion for it. But then, all this became a problem for him when he became addicted. He gambled to the point of even borrowing and selling properties just to gamble.

So, whether we gamble for fun or financial benefits, the shield is self-control because without self-control you will run into problems.

It's enjoyment, like reading or watching a movie. Playing, anticipation, and safe highs and lows are more exciting than winning. However, Im aware of the border between fun gambling and risky gambling. Like you, I've found value in separating fun games from stakes games. A deliberate choice involves awareness and control. Maintaining a healthy gaming relationship requires this differentiation.

Supporting fun Gambling should be seen as a hobby, not a financial strategy. To hear someone else realise and practise this balance is refreshing. In gambling, personal responsibility and self-awareness are crucial.

If a gambler is aware of what is involved in gambling, they will try to prepare it before they start gambling. And by having enough before starting to gamble, they already understand that gambling is not a place to make money but only a place to have fun. They will not gamble excessively. They will not try to use more money because they remember the risks they face if they gamble excessively. They will manage the risk so that it doesn't get bigger, so they can't control the risk, which could cause them to lose control of themselves and make them lose their money. There are limits that they must always obey when gambling, and they will not try to violate the limits because it will have a bad impact on them where the loss of money will be greater. They also won't be able to accept losing more money because it could make them regret it. When you have the right understanding and mindset, you can use gambling properly and will not try to chase wins or recover losses.

The knowledge was the important one for the gambling,many gamblers thought the luck was the important one.One of my friend thought luck is the only way to make the money in the gambling site.He had lost 12k dollars only by considering the luck as the fully important one in the gambling site.He had earned nearly 7k from the 12k as the base capital of 5k from their hand.But after the big winning was made,my friend had used the big betting in the gambling site.He had won huge money in the random betting,but the same money was lost in the random betting.The gamblers who had good knowledge can tackle the problem at any game in gambling site.

I wouldn't want to totally discredit your point of view but then you should understand that there are people who actually gamble for fun, as difficult as it may appear for you to believe it's reality, I can say this authoritatively because I've witnessed it on several occasions and one of the occasions he literally gave out all they he won to charity.

People genuinely gamble for fun and not deceiving their selves but it's only but a very few who actually gamble for fun this way and that's why I can actually understand your doubt because you can hardly find the genuine fun gamblers as what we have around the most are gamblers who do so for the sake of winning and their personal financial benefits probably because they were actually financially challenged before they visited the casino be it online or offline, gambling for fun is possible and can actually be achieved especially when you risk that which you can afford to lose.

Playing just for the money can get tiresome. But there still has to be some fun in the game. Otherwise there will be no inspiration to continue playing. Of course, in everything there must be a measure, and the degree of this measure each player determines for himself. The more reasonable the approach to the case - the greater the return

[Accardo]

Gamblers have multiple reasons for their activities, and it also includes fun. Not everyone is there for the money. But, on a bit of it, the gamblers also require money to gamble. So, one way or another the gambler would want to win money. Yet it doesn't mean it's his priority. Whether there is a win or not, the fun gambler doesn't care. Those who gamble for money, most of the time, don't find themselves happy if they don't find themselves some wins. The struggle gets worse if he desperately goes for those wins. Which could affect his gambling habit, and lead to compulsive gambling. Such things as this makes the player to regret his gambling habit, becuase he can lose out all his money on the process. So, it's not that the fun gamblers don't want to play for money, no. They also need money to creep in, but they're not worried over if it arrives or not. Thereby, keeping clean their mental and emotional confidence. Less worries.

Classifying gamblers as fun or profit hunters simplifies a complex subject. All gamblers realize the stakes are money. Their risk-reward connection distinguishes them. Aren't you foolish to say fun gamblers don't care about wins and losses? Success still depends on money. The difference is how they handle gaming results. This is about human psychology and money value, not fun or desperation

Compulsion to gamble is more than just a desire to win. Control (or lack thereof) and psychological triggers that transform casual to compulsive are key. There's no point in romanticizing or demonizing gambling without considering its effects on society and individuals

When working with the human brain and how people think, don't use yourself as a general example. If you allow the outcome of your gambling to affect your happiness, it's your choice and personal problem. And it also depends on your upbringing, and the type of neighborhood you grew up from, maybe around people who don't get satisfied over what they've got and go hunting for money in casinos, when things go wrong, they come out frowning their faces like morons who have not had food to eat since sliced bread. If it bothers you, it doesn't bother me. Please don't use such words as "foolish" when quoting my account. Or better off, put you on ignore. I think you need to take some break from writing, and rethink before responding to people, before you begin to get aggressive over what doesn't worth being aggressive for.

If people want to gamble for fun then let them gamble for fun if they want to gamble for money then let them do that too, it is their money they can do whatever they want with it.

Getting a profit from gambling is not an easy thing and most people who gamble definitely hope that the game can make a profit for them, yes, there are indeed many millions of people who gamble, but only a few people can really use gambling to make a profit for them and this is only done by gamblers who have high skills, if someone gambles only with minimal skills and cannot control themselves, it will cause them to experience significant financial losses.

It is up to the gambler to use gambling for what purpose, whether to have fun or to make a profit, they are gambling with their own money and not harming other people. However, if I myself use gambling just to have fun and if I win I consider it a small bonus from gambling so I don't really have any hope of making a profit from gambling.

Your friends should understand that finding luck in gambling is difficult and cannot be obtained as often as we would like. Luck can give us a win and make money, but luck will not always come every time we gamble. And it seems that your friend has become greedy when he has won a big win and thinks that he can win another big win even though it is a trap for greedy gamblers so that they go back to gambling and spend all their money. That is why every gambler must be able to control himself when playing gambling so that he does not lose more money in gambling. When a person has succeeded in considering gambling as entertainment, he will not cross his boundaries and only continue to use gambling as entertainment and nothing more. He didn't want to experience an even bigger loss that he couldn't accept.

Of course, in everything there must be a measure, and the degree of this measure each player determines for himself. The more reasonable the approach to the case - the greater the return

A gambler can only get tired when he is not winning but the tiredness doesn't mean that he will quit gambling. He will only lament and get worried that he is not winning but he will continue playing with the hope of winning. Experience shows that even though people gamble because of money sometimes they get fun from the game. So gambling for money doesn't mean that fun has been taken away automatically.

I have seen people who play games even though the game didn`t play, they laugh when they tear the tickets and you see them laugh together with friends and think of how to do it better. Gambling is only rewarding when you predict rightly and so most gamblers want to get it right and make mega money which is not bad but then they should always set limits to avoid financial damage.

[Promocodeudo]

They can watch the match for fun but as long as it involved them paying money before gambling, most persons don't normally see it as fun and this is the reason why after placing a particular bet, if the game isn't successful they continue betting hoping to get a win along the way thervy being seen as addict.

I am interested in your saying that they cannot have fun with football because they have bet on it. I think this is a very sad thing. Gambling addicts are really bad people. They can't even enjoy something that should be fun like football. I don't know anyone who can enjoy games like football or MMA once they place their bets but to be honest I've never bet before and I don't think it will happen because I'm worried about getting addicted and having bad consequences.

It is impossible for someone to have fun in watching a match that he has bets on, such person will have anxiety and one sided in support, at this point what he cares about is his bet depend on his options, so, it is very much true that people can have fun in a game that they place bet on, football is a game of fun though, but having fun and beating at this same time can ruin your fun, when you are gambling supporting a team as a fan is not obtainable unless you make a strict decision not bet on your favourite team but if you do, there is no way you can enjoy such game, if you notice very well people don't openly support team that much again because of gambling.

The fellowship over the broken tickets shows that people can enjoy being let down. To get through this world, you need to know yourself and set limits. The risk and return of gambling make it necessary to be disciplined. I like how gaming strikes a fine balance between making money and having fun. It shows how complicated human reasoning is and how we look for meaning in even the most pointless things we do. Limits are very important for keeping your finances from going bad.

Many things in my life have taught me to be moderate. Gambling can be fun and interesting if you do it in a smart way. The key is to find a balance between being smart with your money and enjoying the hunt.
