Where is the fun when you lose your money?

[FinneysTrueVision]

If you are managing your bankroll properly, even if you lose, you still got some entertainment value while you were in the moment. This can make up for the disappointment from having lost, as long as you were able to keep your losses minimal. You can still come back on another day and get a big win with your remaining funds.

For high rollers, there is probably a feeling of power that comes with wagering large sums. That alone can be thrilling, but you will also be treated with comps and bonuses to make you feel special even when you lose.

Entertainment is probably not always just winning. Often it is just strong emotions, even if negative. Of course, if you constantly lose, it is difficult to call it entertainment. Rather, you buy yourself troubles with your own money. But many players perceive losses philosophically. They hope to win back. And this allows them to endure losses steadfastly. They are warmed by the thought that someday they will win back, compensate for their losses, and after that a fantastic win awaits them. It turns out that they are deceiving themselves.

When we playing gambling, we must understand the risk of the lost money in gambling because that will we get if we decides to playing gambling. When we can accept that, we will not cares with the lose and only want to prevent the big lost of money so we just playing gambling for some time without having any intention to chase the win. If you can get entertain from gambling even if you lost your money, that will not be a problem for you because you know the risk and you just prevent the big lost coming to you. That is how to treat gambling well so we can endure losses without wanting to recover the loss because we think that can make our losses becomes big. It is right there is no fun when we lost our money in gambling but with understanding the risk, we don't mind to get that lost money because we just use the money we can afford to lose in gambling.

Now let me throw little light in this subject, at first we all go to see movies and we pay for watching it right? And then we can decide to buy ice cream, popcorn or chocolate with our money, at this point while watching and licking the ice cream what do we gain, It's just fun right?

Good! So is gambling you pay for just having the fun and also if the game or match goes against you then one lost his money but if they wins the fun is complete, although live matches are much more better while watching you can have the fun.

That is why it's always advisable to have amount that won't affect our emotions to gamble so when lose come you wouldn't feel that bad or weak maybe regret for having that amount sank into bet you didn't planned for.

Sometimes we want to do something to get out of the flow of life and forget everything. I think gambling does that. Even if I lose money, at the end of the game I feel that I have put some of the stress of my work life or some of my family problems on the shelf. Of course I don't like losing money. But I always gamble with amounts that I can afford to lose. I never gamble with amounts that I will regret later. So even if I lose, I don't get upset.

[Akbarkoe]

Basically no one likes to lose money, especially people who are not ready to lose it, it will make them depressed, before that we have to talk about the orientation of pleasure in gambling is located on the pleasure of winning or on gambling, sometimes some people have different views on the pleasure of gambling, some people I see them because they are happy to gamble even if they lose, just to add sensation to watching soccer, secondly there are people who are happy because they get a win and manage to multiply their money in gambling.

The correlation is that people who are just having fun at gambling relatively don't care if they lose money because they should already understand that they have to spend money to lose at gambling, while people who bet to multiply money at gambling are automatically happy if they win, and it will make them disappointed and unpleasant for them if they lose money.

You have got it all, for you to save yourself from stress of random thinking in gambling when you lose, just gamble with what you can afford to lose, in other way round, a gambler supposed to know that losing is possible because gambling is all about risk and you can't continue to be thinking of positive side of gambling without the negative side of it, what makes some of us to feel sad whenever we loss in gambling is that they have not make up their mind to accept loss in gambling, unlike myself, theirs no amount I will lose in gambling that I will think twice,

because I have already know that neither I lose or I gain in gambling, these two things is involve, gambling with your spare money will make you not to have much concentration in your stake..I could remember last time I stake four games draw, and it played out and I never knew that I will win with 4 draw, so i stake with money I can afford to lose, which I don't know that I will win , I assuming  i know, i would have used higher amount to stake the game.

Lose in gambling can only be consider to be entertaining when a gambler plays with a little amount that he can afford to lose and when their is a better understanding about gambling to know that gambling is unpredictable and one must be prepared to see a win or lose as the outcome. With these understanding and mindset then gambling can be entertaining irrespective of lose. When you really get nothing to lose in gambling it is entertaining and fun.  That is why we need to follow the rules that states only play with money you can afford to lose and even if the lose occurs it is just as if one has lose nothing.

Those who don’t gamble keep asking themselves what do gamblers see in gambling that makes them go back and gamble despite knowing that they’ll lose their money - if you’re into gambling you’ll know that gambling is a perfect way to escape reality, just deposit a little amount into your account and then select a game that allows you to bet on very little amount (this will prolong your gambling activity) and then start playing during that period you won’t have to worry about what’s happening in your life, you’ll be completely free, and just be in a different state.

Gambling has helped me in such a way before and that’s why when I’m bother with something and I don’t have any solutions and I don’t want it to keep lingering in my mind I just go to my account and start gambling, that way I’ll have something else to focus on.

Those amount which they can afford to lose is somehow we could believe that the gambler is enjoying the game he is playing and even if he lose his money we can see base on his body language or the way he speak that he's enjoying it and not been bothered with those losses he get. So with those cases its really good for gamblers to gamble in moderation since if they exceed and became greedy thinking to earn huge then that's how stressful feeling would start up.

And every lose in that situation will hit hard on their veins, that's why they should lower down their expectation about getting a lot of profit since if they are really lucky those things would just came. So its important to enjoy the game since for sure people would say that each game they try is fun to play with.

I see that this isn't only about money but also time, so I think it's better to add time as well in your thread title. You also mentioned that we might neglect a daily task but I think this is still part of losing a time. If your first goal is only to make a quick profit, then it isn't necessary to use a large money as a capital. It is only if you say that our first goal is also to make a large profit in a quick period of time. This world is so huge and there are lots of people in it, so it's normal to not understand some of them but don't worry as there are also people who can experience the same thing.

For me, there is nothing surprising with that if a person is having fun in gambling and are willing to sacrifice both time and money because this is what gambling is built for. I still have no rights to say that those who play the opposite way is wrong because that was still their life and that was their own money that they used.

If you have a small budget and wants to play gambling for fun, this is still possible by minimizing your bets and you will need to stop early if the results are mostly negative. Gambling with someone else money is indeed seems fun. Not only that but it is also beneficial (literally) because we can get paid of doing it. Though before we get there we might need a good skill first for others to get encouraged.

That's cool. It's very rare to hear people say these honest things. If you can put out the stress through gambling then I think that's a great idea to be one of your hobbies everything you have in your spare time.
You are doing great at just using the money that you can afford to lose but please also be careful with chasing losses. I know there are still urges to deposit one more time and try to gamble more so you can get it all back. Try to avoid those things as much as possible as it may lead to either addiction or frustration for making a mistake you won't be getting back anymore.

When a person is betting on the game then they must be able to enjoy what they are playing so that when they experience a defeat they can accept and not force themselves to return to betting which will add to the losses that we will experience, so for anyone who bets they must be able to control themselves when they have lost and also do not have to try again at the same game that has given them a loss but if they are still If you want to bet, you can try other types of bets.

Betting a large amount of course will test the patience we have, because without having patience it will be very difficult to control the capital used to bet so that we can easily lose and I think the bonus given when experiencing a defeat will help us a little from the big defeat that we experience.

Nobody wants to face the truth, which is why so many people struggle to accept it, and they just want to get back what they lost by continuing to gamble. It’s tough to admit reality, especially when we’re hoping to grow our money. Unfortunately, what we wish for often turns out differently. The more we focus on winning, the more we seem to lose. That’s why even when we do win, we often still feel like it’s not enough because we are greedy already and these people never feel satisfied; they’re always hungry for more.

Maybe the real issue for us gamblers is our mindset—we have a hard time accepting reality. If we all can just accept it, I was certain fun is there, even if we lose.

The key on here is that you shouldnt really be that making use of the money on which you cant be able to afford to lose on which this is the primary thing that you should really be having in mind, because on the moment or time that you will really be having this kind of intent on which on the time that you do play gambling for the sake of money or getting rich or having winnings in mind.
On the time that you would really be having those consecutive losses then this is the time that you will really be having this kind of disappointment and being that angry into the situation that you are really that into.
There's no fun when you do lose money and its part of the process or part of the game yet there's no gambler that would really be definitely be able to have that constant winning on which you should really be wary in the first place on the moment that you have decided to play gambling. There's no fun in losing but its definitely be part of the game, the important thing on here is that you should really know on how to accept
your situation and able move on on the moment that you do experience loses because this is where usually gamblers do become impulsive on the moment that they cant accept their fate into it.

This is why it would be that important that you should really know on what you should gonna do and on the things that you will be able to encounter. Dont make yourself that too optimistic or positive towards
gambling because on the moment that you are really that expecting too much then you are really that prone into those decisions on which it might really be leading up into more disaster on the time or moment
that you will be making even more deposits just because you are already trying out to chase up your loses on which this is something that you must not really consider out. This is why it will really be that
important that you should be having that control and moderation so that you wont be able to destroy your life because of gambling.

Life is like that, sometimes we work hard to earn money but sometimes we also need to spend money on entertainment, to buy moments of relaxation after stressful working hours that work brings.

In that, gambling is really a very interesting game and hard to describe. Have you found any entertainment that can bring you fun and make you money like gambling? If we are conscious from the beginning that we are using gambling for entertainment then even if we lose money we will never feel too disappointed or discouraged and we will be satisfied with it. But if we gamble for the purpose of making money and not for entertainment then you are right, losing money is no fun.


Last week, some friends and I played billiards and we spent a lot of money there, but we didn't feel sad. Why should we be sad when we decide to spend money to have fun with the games there? Gambling is the same, if you play for fun then you will never feel upset even if you lose.

When you do gamble then it will be always advisable that you should really be that making use of an extra amount so that you will really be using when playing gambling so that

just because you do let yourself becoming impulsive and lost up control then you will really be that definitely be having that kind of huge problem on which it will really be putting you
on huge regret on the time or moment that you do find yourself on such big trouble or condition.

People have different reasons for gambling, for some it's basically a means to get rich quick, for others it's basically for fun and relaxation. I can agree that no matter the reasons for gambling everybody likes to win and we can't dispute that fact. The problem is how gamblers takes loses, some will become so emotional and the bad feelings will linger for a very long time while for others it won't affect them much. I gamble for the thrill of it and I don't always have high expectations for winnings, that is why I always gamble with the amount that I can afford to loose.

When the thinker himself is weak, he spends time and wastes money on gambling instead of working His thought is to earn a lot of money quickly due to which he leaves the daily activities with difficulty. But there is a group who gamble for fun because they have a lot of money. Due to which they easily forget the shock of this small loss. I love gambling but taking a loan from someone and betting on gambling is stupid I only gamble with my earned money. However, those who are rich find fun in losing money but not all people follow the same path.

[Oluwa-btc]

I think there are those who agree with me and those who do not agree with me, but it remains my personal opinion and it's an opportunity to share it with you on this topic.
So where's the fun when you lose your money?

There's no fun loosing money you know but what makes it fun is the fact that you enjoyed the game so much, one thing you should understand concerning betting and gambling is that it's basically set up for entertainment and to make it more unique and fun people place bets in that regards and it's either you win or you lose but necessarily you had fun while playing it.
I know that alot of people don't like seeing gambling as fun cause they end up loosing money but they are seeing it in that aspect because they think all they could get from it it's money which makes it not fun for them when they probably end up loosing the money and that's not how gambling should be, one should understand what's gambling it's all about and go about it in that same vein and I tell you gambling is fun you know aside winning and loosing.

Very stupid, even idiots, by using borrowed money just to gamble.
I myself saw this happen in my environment, willing to borrow money with big interest just for Slot gambling which in the end you also know, it will only result in losses and the money is lost instantly.

Gambling with a greedy mentality will only waste money and time, and of course it is different if someone who has a lot of money gambles with their own money and loses it is normal, there will be no mental disorder or stress but more as entertainment.

This is precisely the philosophy of gambling. As soon as a player starts playing for the amount that he does not mind losing, then he begins to enjoy the game itself. After all, there is no extra stress and pursuit of the jackpot, because the process itself is more important. And if you play only for the sake of making a profit, most likely the player will face a zero balance and a bad mood.
