Gambling for fun and not a way of making money

[GideonGono]

There are gamblers who gamble for fun, they don't really care about the profit or loss it is their way to enjoy their time.
I think it is their way to have excitement or thrill while playing, we should know that playing without a risk to past time are boring, and we wouldn't take the game seriously if there is no risk.

I don't disagree that they are some gamblers like that but I still think that a large portion of Persons in the world that gamble are actually focused on some incentives attached to the fun way of gambling and that's why I believe the particular folks that gamble and lose crazy and still take it to be means of enjoyment for them are the filthy rich guys and one perfect example is the famous rap artist DRAKE, he renowned for his wild stakes on soccer and other different sports but you may ask why do all this when obviously you have the funds but the answers would be for fun I guess.

It is hard to change people's mind if it's about gambling. Those that have been believing that it's a way to make money but they don't gamble at all, it's like you're arguing to a kid over a cotton candy and that kid won't allow you to win the argument. And you as the person against that kid, you won't also allow that kid to dictate what you wanna do. With this, it's better to understand the point of everyone on why they think they're right and the belief that they're set on. While us, we know the hard reality about this and we have to understand every person that's dealing with this kind of thing.

If someone wants to have fun, for sure that it's not just all about having fun but also making him/her some money as they gamble. Nobody wants to go home with nothing as they gamble and that's how our minds are being tricked when we're losing. We think that we can go over for more games and survive another set of disasters of losing. But in the end, the chance of losing is higher than ever so regardless of everyone's reason, as long as you're not giving hassle to somebody, you're not taking loans to gamble, you're not selling stuff and not doing anything stupid just for you to gamble, I think that's the most important thing to remember here.

      That's how I feel sometimes when I gamble in the casino. There are also times when I would be lucky enough to win, but usually I'm just passing the time, and I only have an amount of money set aside for gambling and I don't exceed my gambling amount.

     That's just the cycle I do when I play crypto gambling. And maybe other gamblers are also like me maybe in this style.

Fivestar4everMVP's quote is the most interesting one in this thread. I am glad that he said that despite the fact that he promotes a casino, it's good that he is 100% fair with us. I don't know statistics well but to my mind, gambling should be a better way of entertainment for elder generation instead of video games because it's a new thing for them and many people over 40 don't and haven't even played a video games frequently but casino games have been popular all the time because it didn't require any internet or electricity and smart equipment back then. So, for some people, it might be a better way of entertainment than video games.
Well, it's hard to say whether it's some people purely gamble for fun or for profit. I can say that I sometimes gamble for fun but sure, I expect profit, although, it's not my priority because I understand what I am doing and what can be the result, so, I don't wanna ruin my life.

You can actually gamble for fun but that's not without the motivation of winning, how would you feel if what you are doing for fun just involves you spending money all the time without receiving anything back from it sometimes, it would actually be more interesting if it was done for fun and still promises to pay you.

But many people actually view gambling from one perspective of getting money and that's why they find it hard to control themselves from not gambling everyday or too much, and since its viewed as something that gives money they would want to give more into it than usual

True, and what is more appropriate in my opinion is to gamble with the aim of fun by minimizing or not putting too much effort into getting a win, after all gambling is a probability activity that only provides "possibilities", meaning there is no certainty whatsoever to actually be able to materialize according to your wishes, and therefore a healthy approach to gambling is when you make it an activity with the aim and priority for entertainment but when you are lucky and win then it is a decision that does not hurt to cash out.

It is true that I also recognize and see that most people always try to make gambling a place to earn or even to change their financial fortunes or make it a solution to financial problems such as paying off debts, honestly this is a worrying mindset because of course with such a mindset and goals in the end will actually make them experience a much worse situation, such as in terms of debt, instead of being able to pay debts but what happens is that they are even more in debt, and this is what will happen when you have the wrong understanding of gambling.

Playing gambling for fun is what we have to do because we need to avoid the desire to win the gambling game. We will be difficult to win because gambling is not designed to give winning for us but for the casino. But some people can win some gambling games.
We have to remember that the casino will be the winner, so when playing gambling, we have to limit ourselves to gambling. If not, we will only experience many losses and can't recover from those losses.
We have to avoid gambling addiction because many gamblers already become addicted without realizing it. And we must remember only to use the money we can afford to gamble.

Any gambler who does not understand that gambling should be a means of entertainment, will not be easy to his losses. This is because he will never stop chasing his losses, hoping that will win the next game, before you know it he will become addicted to gambling.

It is good when you are addicted, and you know that you are an addict, so that you can work on your addiction, but when you don't know that you are an addict, you will not be able to limit the rate at which you gamble, and you will not quite gambling until it has done great harm to you. Gambling is a try your luck thing and not a thing that we should put all our hope on.

They will only suffer losses if they do not understand that gambling is entertainment. They will tend to continue playing gambling even without stopping because they will think to keep trying to win their gambling game.
It will only increase the amount of loss to be greater than before because they did not think about limiting their gambling and just wanted to try to win. They should stop restoring their defeat by gambling and thinking about preventing the next defeat.
Before we become a gambling addict, we should immediately limit our gambling activities and also limit the money and time we use to play gambling. It will not be worth it if you are addicted to gambling because it will cause a huge loss for you.

This is such a difficult motto to sometimes accept, for many it has become a cliché to see things this way, we all know that this thing of playing just for fun is just the motto that is used to guarantee that the game is not ma, and in reality it is not bad, when we see and go further back in time, why was the caisno invented? to make them enjoy, unless we have a pleasant time and forget about the tasks we have to accomplish in our daily lives, it is something that we all have of course but we know very well that we must know how to do it, but to understand this, we have to You have to have the necessary maturity to see that the things in a casino will always be favorable for the house, because the house is the one that will never suffer from any type of loss , Unless they have a big Mistake , a bug , or something like that, but it is if and only if this is decrypted.

We also see things in a very different way, it is known that when we play we can generate many ways of seeing the game, as a way to play and earn money and as an activity that we consider fun, this It is always like this, so it is up to us to Realize that the casino is for fun and to have a lot of fun if we win.


We all seek to win in a casino and this is Something that is normal , in fact when I enter the casino to play any game because I seek to win, there is no other way than my simple impulse and the desire to do things well, to have fun and to We continue to do things very well , so When we do any type of activity that is carried out with money, we seek to Earn and have a lot, but we always make the effort to earn.

It is a lie that things are about playing for the sake of playing, because no one is going to play to lose money, everyone is looking to make money and anyone who goes to a casino just because they want to do things Differently and not win , is not well Regarded, and besides, they are not he is believed.

You can actually gamble for fun but that's not without the motivation of winning, how would you feel if what you are doing for fun just involves you spending money all the time without receiving anything back from it sometimes, it would actually be more interesting if it was done for fun and still promises to pay you.

Gambling for funs means you don't care about the results of the game that you're playing, you're only gambling to make you feel entertained. There are some individual that love to risk their money to have fun. When there money is being at risk, they'll get the best motivation to become more competitive and try to win the house. They don't succeed but the effort is also appreciated. You can't win the house when gambling therefore gambling should just be an act of entertainment.

You have to be motivated to win regardless of the reason why you're gambling. It's the good winning results that keeps you gambling as if you failed when you gambled the first time you won't want to gamble more. Also those that are just starting to gamble claim that they're gambling for entertainment but the reason they're gambling is to try to make extra money to look after their needs in life.

[Kavelj22]

The idea behind gambling is rooted in our desire for risk, reward , and entertainment. Some people engage in gambling not just for making money but also for the thrill of taking chances and social interactions. As gambling it’s not just limited to staking bets as we call it. Some gamble by playing poker, whot and Luda etc because it provides opportunity for socializing and competitions. While others are motivated to gamble for just the financial gain

I doubt socializing and competing are main motive anymore for gambling esports that online casino are already popular now. It’s more own lquick gain” objective rather than socializing because most gambler nowadays doesn’t frequently use chats to interact when login in the casino.

This type of player cannot be eliminated. Competitive gaming communities create a sense of belonging, where people who share the same passion for the game come together and encourage each other. Competitive win games offer a fun and competitive experience, encouraging enjoyment and excitement.
For example poker. Poker is a popular social game, where players gather around a table and interact with each other through betting and discussions about playing strategies. Players of different levels can learn from each other by sharing tips and strategies. Poker can be a fun and entertaining game, especially when played with friends.

They will only suffer losses if they do not understand that gambling is entertainment. They will tend to continue playing gambling even without stopping because they will think to keep trying to win their gambling game.
It will only increase the amount of loss to be greater than before because they did not think about limiting their gambling and just wanted to try to win. They should stop restoring their defeat by gambling and thinking about preventing the next defeat.
Before we become a gambling addict, we should immediately limit our gambling activities and also limit the money and time we use to play gambling. It will not be worth it if you are addicted to gambling because it will cause a huge loss for you.

There are surely psychological aspects of gambling and the risks associated with unchecked behavior. Indeed, understanding that gambling is primarily a form of entertainment is pivotal. When people view it solely as a means to win money or recoup losses, they can easily fall into the trap of chasing losses that leads to escalating financial and emotional turmoil.

Chasing losses behavior can exacerbate losses further that creates a vicious cycle of financial depletion and emotional distress.
Rather than focusing solely on recovering losses, people should shift their mindset towards preventing future losses by adopting responsible gambling practices from the outset. Acknowledging the potential consequences of gambling addiction and taking proactive steps to limit gambling activities can safeguard individuals from significant harm and financial detriment.

Some people among us are no getting what the meaning is. This is an example:

We have said it several times without number on this gambling board that gambling is not for making money. Gambling should only be for fun.

LOLz
I was an advocate of this (gambling solely for fun and nothing else) but honestly, I've changed my mind, it is wrong to believe that people will spend all of their hard earned money on gambling just for them to have fun, very wrong believe if you ask me.
There are several games people can play for free for fun's sake, there are video games that are way more interesting and fun to play than any slot or casino game, there are also some really good betting games that are far more intriguing to play than sports betting, what exactly do you think make slot games, Casino games, and even sports betting so interesting that people would want to spend their money on it just to have fun? As far as I know, non of this games are as interesting as playing a good video game on my laptop or mobile phone for free.

To believe that gambling should be done purely for fun is dilusional(sorry to say), I once posted a poll on this board where I asked gamblers on this forum that, if the possibility of making money through gambling is completely removed, and they have to keep spending their money to gamble, but will never win a dime because it's completely for fun, will they keep gambling?, the 100 percent who those who answered the pool said no, that they would stop gambling, for what is the essence of gambling if they can't win money.

It is not gambling for fun only. That is not complete. It is gambling for fun and not seeing gambling as a way of making money
It is what we want newbie gamblers to read to remember if they lose huge amount and know they should only gamble to have fun and not a way of making money
It means huge amount should not be used to gamble
It means using gambling to make money is irresponsible gambling habit for the rich not to become poor
It also means gambling should not be taking your time that supposed to be used for important things
It means people should not be addicted to gambling
It means gambling can be good but if gambling responsibly
It means if gambling is taking money from you than expected, quit gambling as you are not gambling for fun and the later outcome can be bad.

You can by beer to have fun and not seeing it as a waste of money. You can give a friend little amount of money in a way he may want to give you back but you will not collect it as you see it as small amount, telling him it is a small amount of money. Only such money like that, that are small in amount set aside should only be used for gambling. That is the meaning. The fun you see there does not necessary mean fun. Just like an ideom.

Could be one of the few times I would agree with what you say.

The common misconception people have when we talk about "gambling for fun" is them just thinking we're going to be okay and happy with splurging thousands of dollars in one go, which is simply not true. Everyone who loses that amount of money in their own worth's gonna be in shambles, even the most calm and collected clown on the planet. What we talk about when we say we are all for gambling for fun is exactly as you have mentioned Oshosondy, gambling in such a way wherein losses doesn't take a toll on your mental and gambling in such a way wherein you're able to maximize the most experience and fun from your gambling session. People can easily gamble away thousands of dollars when given the chance, but a responsible gambler who gambles for the sake of entertainment will find multitude of ways to squeeze out as much play as possible from that amount of money and still have so much fun that even when they lose that money eventually, they're not going for revenge gambling, and in turn gambling addiction.

That's basically it. It's a simple concept if you'd ask me and unless you go out there preaching as if you're some sort of evangelist you're not gonna get misconstrued for what you're saying, I'm not even sure at this point why this is still a topic when it's goal and reasoning is clearly established from the get-go.

I think it is their way to have excitement or thrill while playing, we should know that playing without a risk to past time are boring, and we wouldn't take the game seriously if there is no risk.

Actually, gambling is just part of fun,but some people see it  the other way round.probably when they play a gamble,all there hope will be in that game hoping for wining.maybe if the outcome was not what they expected they will feel depressed,I think if you can't play for fun it is better you quit from gambling ,because if you know what gamble means you won't be expecting a return.

[gunhell16]

But many gamblers are taking it as a place of investment and, many gamblers have lost millions of dollars in gambling hoping that, it's the amount of money you put in gambling that will determine your win and, it has lead many to be addicted because gambling is made for fun which is the reason some gamblers are still in the gambling today without be addicted to gambling.

 I like gambling as fun and, any day I will not gamble it will make me feel as if something is missing in my dressing until I gamble before my real mood will come to normal and my daily budget for gambling is $5 and there is nothing that will make me gamble above that amount whether winning or loosing which is my principle in gambling.

It is right that we enjoy gambling so that we can appreciate our playing in any casinos in the gambling field. That's why I thought about what you said—that your gambling budget is only $5. Is this the only amount you deposit on a gambling platform?

Or what you do is deposit, for example, 40 dollars, and then you can play every week with a limited amount of only 5 dollars? Is that right? because the minimum deposit in the casino is $10  and up, as far as I know.

You can actually gamble for fun but that's not without the motivation of winning, how would you feel if what you are doing for fun just involves you spending money all the time without receiving anything back from it sometimes, it would actually be more interesting if it was done for fun and still promises to pay you.

That's right, people are so obsessed with choosing only one when the option to choose both has always been at the table, I can't even fathom the fact that people would play those games without the money as a reward, fun is relative too, not everyone considers gambling as fun, some people just don't have it in their bone to believe that gambling is for fun and not just any kind of way to make money, the reality is that gambling is created for us so we can hope that there's such a thing as easy money.

But many people actually view gambling from one perspective of getting money and that's why they find it hard to control themselves from not gambling everyday or too much, and since its viewed as something that gives money they would want to give more into it than usual

I guess the reason why it's monoperspectivism is a thing is because we grew up with white and black, no in-betweens that melds both colors, we were groomed by the society to think that choices only comes in pairs. Can't really blame those people that gamble too much for the sake of money, they got addicted and they want to get back the money that they've lost.

[Iroh]

Playing gambling for fun is what we have to do because we need to avoid the desire to win the gambling game. We will be difficult to win because gambling is not designed to give winning for us but for the casino. But some people can win some gambling games.
We have to remember that the casino will be the winner, so when playing gambling, we have to limit ourselves to gambling. If not, we will only experience many losses and can't recover from those losses.
We have to avoid gambling addiction because many gamblers already become addicted without realizing it. And we must remember only to use the money we can afford to gamble.

I think there are varying opinions on what and how gambling is and should be played. I think there are people who see gambling less as an entertainment and more of an option on how to win some more money.
While they see it as an option to win some more money, it doesn’t mean that they’re going to chase their losses so far down, they’ll become addicts. Notably with gambling, you’re more likely to have more losses than wins but that hasn’t stopped people from trying out heir lucks to see if they could win some extra bucks.

I think people are more aware of gambling and how much it could have an effect on their lives when handled irresponsibly. So while trying to win some money in the process, they’re careful not to let irresponsibility in gambling have a grasp on them.
Not everyone plays for entertainment. Some actually do play to get some more money.

Gambling can really be fun sometimes and but not many people are able to realize this because their mind and attention is so focused on the money. But if we can give it a second thought, there is so much fun we can catch gambling on our favorite events. I do remember those times we hangout friends to watch soccer in a bar were we can even place side bets after betting on our favorite teams in the platforms, whatever becomes the outcome, we just laugh over it and move on and it was all fun. We never allowed gambling to separate us or get a better part of us. To us it was all fun. This is the way I think gambling should be.

Don't take the system serious and you will be surprised when the profits starts flowing in, very easy but taking it serious will bring losses. We have different mindsets when it comes to gambler, I'll never doubt any gambler because we keep growing as these days passes by. None of these gamblers remain dormant in one position but for those desperate ones, I've a question for them. Will they be able to gamble and earn steady stream of income from the gambling system? I don't think so because gambling results are unpredictable, the repercussions of losses comes with vital differences.

[Stable090]

It is not gambling for fun only. That is not complete. It is gambling for fun and not seeing gambling as a way of making money

People are finding it difficult to gamble for fun, most people are gambling just because of the money they will make from gambling, that’s why you can see gambling addiction rising on a daily basis. Most of them do have the believe that they are going to win one day if they keep on gambling, so they are finding it difficult to stop. Just few gamblers are the once gambling just for entertainment and fun aspect.

It is what we want newbie gamblers to read to remember if they lose huge amount and know they should only gamble to have fun and not a way of making money
It means huge amount should not be used to gamble

Newbies are being introduced to gambling by addicted gamblers, so they are being told they can make money from gambling, and after losing huge amount of money and they want to give up, they are being motivated by the addicted gamblers which introduced them to gambling.
