gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit.

[slapper]

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.

Simply linking betting to boredom is simplistic. Responsible gambling adds a new level to sports watching. Not only the money—engagement, knowing the game, strategy, and pressure performance

Bets on your favourite team destroy the enjoyment in your opinion. I contend that it requires a deeper awareness and acceptance of the game's unpredictability. Strategy, not gambling, is the issue. We need discipline and emotional intelligence. Keeping perspective and control allows a fan to wager and enjoy the game

You say gambling reduces team support? An oversimplification. Bets or not, true fans stay loyal. Passion for the game, community, and shared highs and lows. Let's promote informed, responsible betting rather than villainizing gambling

The gambler mostly like to watch the games of the other gamblers with their experience.Because the gamblers who had a sufficient knowledge alone not a successful gamblers in the gambling site.It was more essential one for the gambler to increase the game by watching the matches of the others because every one had their own style of the game.So the game can be learned by the gamblers who play in the future game.So the gambling was based on the player experiences and their skills will give their more money by playing more interesting.

The gambler always want to make money by the playing the game in the more as compared to watching the game.The more you play the more you earn as the experience in the gambling site.The game should use the small capital to play the gambling so they can play the more game in the gambling site as compared to less game with the high capital.The second one was not gives you more money for the winning because of the less game.

The gambler who take huge risk in the gambling site will make more money in the gambling site.Because the risk was made because of the making high betting in the gambling site,the high betting allow the gamblers to make the high gambling money as their winning.

If gambler is playing for fun then one thing they can assure once they loss then it's okay for them cause they don't aim for the win al they want is fun so there's no serious about losing. While those gamblers aim for profit then once they lose they will make a way to get that losses and aim for another win. And also the gambler will become greedy and don't stop playing even though their money is enough for their needs but still they will get some of it and play for their wants without knowing that they will loss a lot of money.

I don't understand why it hurts so much when I lose gambling sometimes. I have lost a lot of money because of gambling.However, I am always willing to accept losses while gambling.  Because if I can't accept defeat, it can be a big danger for me, so I am always willing to accept them.

Do you really see gambling as more of fun than a means to a financial end?
how much can you put into gambling before it removes the fun aspect of gambling out of it?

Simply because most people who gamble lose money, they console themselves and consider it entertainment. I believe that when you can earn money regularly from gambling, you will immediately think of considering it as a means or job that brings you finances. There are still people like that, but to be honest, this number is not many, even very small, so most people only see gambling as a form of entertainment. No one will judge them if they just see gambling as entertainment, but if you see it as a job that generates income, you will definitely be judged as a failure in your career, It certainly won't be pleasant at all, right?
I personally do not consider gambling as a job, but forex and crypto trading is a different story. In some ways, trading forex and crypto is a bit like gambling, but for me, I have a method to be able to make money regularly every month, whereas I can't do that with gambling.

We will experience loss more often than we win, so we must try to prevent greater losses by limiting our gambling. It is painful if we experience loss, but as long as we can accept the loss, we will not feel pain because it is an amount we can accept. Many of us also experience losing a lot of money in gambling but if we have set a limit, it will not be so painful because it is a limit that we can afford. If we aim to win, we may have difficulty because we will experience many losses and may end up spending all the money. That is why we have to use limits when playing gambling so that we can prevent many losses and accept those losses well. We can leave the casino without any feeling of wanting to recover the loss.

That's what makes gambling very unique from trading, it has no actual working method. Many experts have tried to figure a perfect method for gambling, to yield steady income monthly, but it doesn't work. The method keeps changing, and the gambler requires lots of techniques to be on a better side of the game. I mean in a side of not many losses, but few big wins. The house has a bigger benefit on the gambler's money due to the edge. Gamblers need to understand this and play gambling for the fun not for money. I don't understand why players still go for the funds as a sole purpose of gambling. Why not play the game and enjoy what the providers has to give us on the screen. However, gambling is fun, and can yield funds, but shouldn't be misused, if not the gambler would find himself in a very long trouble.

What is mostly common in my neighborhood and that I mostly do is soccer betting and if I am not exaggerating, 90% of the people that do soccer betting do do because they want to win money.

That's why I say that becoming a gambling addict will be very dangerous for your life and family. And people like you said, I'm sure they are people from lower and middle economic levels, right? I mean according to what I know rich and super rich people never gamble to make money. They do it just for fun.

This is a problem for most gamblers. Because there are still many people who think of gambling as a source of income. I have a friend and I think he can be an example not to get addicted. He is not a rich man. He also only bets very small amounts. And he did it just for fun and to add adrenaline while watching sports. People like him will not be addicted to gambling and will not continue to gamble. What is most necessary is to manage time and money well, and realize that gambling will be very dangerous if we are not able to control it well.

With somewhat lackadaisical consolation, they maintain a somewhat false entertainment regime, opening their mouths to levels of fun but when they set up a gambling match, that was a villainous personality full of resentment as well as eagerness for benefits, aspect that can create materiality that is difficult to domesticate into a fun, more rational, finally need to acknowledge that gambling directly links people with making money. Entertainment requires more optimistic emotional values, gambling carries too many negative criteria even though it still includes good aspects

gamblers who come to have fun will always be able to limit themselves and know when is the right time to gamble because those who gamble for fun usually have critical thinking or are wiser in managing their financial budget for gambling and respect their budget to have fun later day so they will never regret even if they often lose before they stop gambling but they don't have the thought to chase those losses.

different from gamblers who come to make a profit, usually they only think about how to get a win and always try continuously to get a win, no matter how much they have lost, the most important thing is that they can get a big win like they want, but without realizing that when the longer they bet, the smaller the chance of winning because emotions will get the best of them and when they lose they will really regret it and want to chase their losses to recover the money they have lost.

that's the difference, even though I'm not a hypocrite if gamblers who are having fun also want to win, but it's just winning that they want, not the big profits they want, like gamblers who come for profit.

And this one would really not that easy i should say when it comes on trying out to make yourself to convince that you are really just that doing for fun which we do know that later on it might changed
specially on the time that we are already that making ourselves that being impulsive and this is something that we dont really like to happen but most of the time it is really that inevitable or really hard to resist.
Gambling for fun is something that should really be in default but not all people would really be that having those same mindset on which there are those people who do really end up on being impulsive
and having those thoughts that they would be playing gambling for making money.For those who are really just that playing for fun then they are the ones who wont really be ending up on a disaster on playing
gambling and to those who are playing for money then they are the ones who do end up on being addicted.

I read a gambling thread where there was a lot of discussion about rich and poor gamblers. It was asked who gambles the most between the rich and the poor. Most of the cases seen in this thread mentioned poor gamblers who are more addicted to gambling. Based on that I would also say that a poor gambler is more addicted to gambling than a rich gambler. Because the rich have less greed for money than a poor gambler. Because the poor gambler wants to change his situation quickly. He started considering gambling as a part of his income. Wealthy gamblers are also addicted, but less than poor ones.

In the gambling section, addiction is often discussed, but how often do we see it in everyday life? I realize this problem exists, but I don't think it's widespread enough to be discussed that often. Every player would like to make money from gambling, but mostly they play for such little money that this cannot become a problem for them, and those who want to play for big money do it for a reason, it means they have financial wealth that allows to do this, or they manages to make money from it.

Well, you are right, when it comes to gambling for either fun or financial benefits, I completely agree that the poor people are more likely to fall into the category of those who are mainly gambling for financial benefits, as it is known that a poor person needs money, and gambling itself also requires spending money, if the poor man can agree to spend his money on gambling, it is because there is the possiblity of coming out with double or more of the amount they spent, without such possiblity, I do not think any poor man will want to spend the little money they have managed to earn on gambling.

And now, shifting from focusing on poor people, I would also say that generally, most gamblers play for financial benefits, very few gamblers are really playing for fun disregarding financial status this time, or whether a person is rich or poor, they majority of gamblers are playing for money benefit.

[piebeyb]

that's the difference, even though I'm not a hypocrite if gamblers who are having fun also want to win, but it's just winning that they want, not the big profits they want, like gamblers who come for profit.

Winning should not be the main goal in gambling, that's why the mindset of gamblers must be like rich people where they must really play to have fun so that they remain in proper control and free from gambling addiction. The point is to limit the budget when gambling because it will prevent us from greedy behavior which ultimately makes us continue playing to get that win, even though the win should be used as a bonus, not something that has to be achieved and pursued when gambling.

I'm sure it will be useless if you chase victory at gambling, you will definitely experience difficulties if you make it your main priority when gambling, many people experience defeat and are addicted to gambling in the end when they really make winning the main goal of gambling, I am also not a hypocrite, everyone You definitely want to win, but don't use that as your main goal when gambling, always make sure you gamble with the right budget so you don't go over the limit and become addicted to gambling. Winning is a bonus, it is something that must be instilled into our mindset and losing is just assumed that we paid something. for fun things in gambling.

How often do we see this problem in real life? I have several friends who are now addicted, every day they always experience a lot of problems, losing financial balance is an impact that they will definitely feel in real life, and I saw one of my friends just sold one of the items that seemed to  have become a friend of life for most people, namely gadgets, He needs the gadget to help facilitate his life in every way and one of them is to communicate with family or friends or girlfriends, and there is no other way to be able to help himself from the needs of life that cannot be tolerated other than he has to sell his gadget and get  money to buy food, and isn't this a gambling addiction problem that causes problems in everyday life? Not only this because I also often see some news shows that inform that the rate of people who commit criminal acts is higher due to the impact of gambling addiction.

One of the reasons why we have to talk about the evils of gambling addiction as well as give/exchange advice and guidance to anyone as a preventive measure is because this is the only thing we can do to help our fellow gamblers not end up with addiction and a lot of bad consequences. On the other hand you can't just say that "most gamblers only play with little money", you can't conclude that simply because that idea overrides another fact here which is that the population of addicted people is increasing and I saw this fact from some news shows that showed statistics of the increase in people involved in gambling where the percentage increase almost touched 100x from 2020 to now, and this means that the population of addicted people will increase, and this is the reason why we always discuss the adverse effects of addiction along with giving a lot of advice and direction so that the number of addicted people can be minimized. I understand that most gamblers come to earn but unfortunately gambling is not a place that can provide you with income, it is this misconception that we must correct and redirect.

The topic of addictions have been more pronounced in recent time and to a great extent most gamblers seems to believe that they are all free from addictions because of the fact that they have not lose unbearable amount or acted in a way that brings out the addictions in them but still they have exhibited some characteristic of addicts and at that could believe that they don't have such tendency in them but in reality they have.

So we need to make a proper separation between addictions,  gambling for profits and so on at some level,  but then we need to discourage the sense of ideology that takes gambling as a means to make profits.

Because the rich have less greed for money than a poor gambler. Because the poor gambler wants to change his situation quickly. He started considering gambling as a part of his income. Wealthy gamblers are also addicted, but less than poor ones.

Overall I honestly can't say for sure about who is more addicted between gamblers who have rich or poor backgrounds, but it seems quite interesting and I also agree with you that poor gamblers are more likely to become more addicted gamblers than rich people. We can see the reason from their financial situation in real life, which of course the financial situation is the main reason that can encourage a gambler to act more aggressively, such as poor people who as we know that they have a below average financial situation and most of them misunderstand what is meant by "winning opportunities" in gambling, they think that gambling can change their fortunes for the better when in fact gambling is not a place that can be used as an alternative to overcome financial problems but instead gambling with the wrong approach will make you suffer more financial problems.

So the financial situation that poor people have in my opinion can really be used as an excuse for the idea that "poor people can be much more addicted than rich people", on the other hand it is quite reasonable and I believe that rich people treat gambling as nothing more than a place of entertainment when they have a little free time in the middle of their busy lives, and also in my opinion rich people will not make gambling a place to earn because usually they will consider something from all sides and announce something that has the certainty to be truly profitable or profitable such as investment or business in real life.

And now, shifting from focusing on poor people, I would also say that generally, most gamblers play for financial benefits, very few gamblers are really playing for fun disregarding financial status this time, or whether a person is rich or poor, they majority of gamblers are playing for money benefit.

The fact is that the player comes to play for the first time because he thinks that he will make money from it, but he does not want to think about what advantages over other players and the game itself he will be able to do. This is what distinguishes someone who comes into the game to earn money from someone who wants to have a little fun and spend an enjoyable evening. Meanwhile, I can say that I studied poker for a very long time and wanted to make money with this game. Ultimately, I wanted to do it so much that I was completely beaten at the higher limits, I just wasn't ready for them. I wanted to win too much and this also bothers many players and leads to a loss in the end. While those players who play for fun can approach the game more easily, which in turn puts them in a more advantageous position with moral stability.

[Dzigie]

Life is too short. My first aim in everything is to enjoy this life. I don't have a lot of money. Making millions with little money seems like a dream to me. That's why I try to enjoy the game. This is the most realistic approach for me. At the end of the day, I feel that I have enjoyed myself and calmed my mind, and that is enough for me. There are people who have a lot of money but can't have these things. I think if we think we have the right approach, we can always find a way to be happy.
