Is Gambling A Hobby?

[danherbias07]

Do you know that some people choose a gambling as a source of generating Revenue and some people also seems gambling as another way of having opportunity or meeting up to standard they want so they are involvement in gambling is like someone who have a skil that is operating on so that is why when you see some people discussing gambling as a hobby may think that there is something important into what they are discussing or what they are narrating in gambling

Sometimes I do hear people talking about gambling but I don't consider them talking seriously about it. Mostly, it happens in a bar or in a group of people that are drinking in the streets. I don't know if that's the norm of them but I think they are just sharing their thoughts about gambling and for a topic to talk about.
Sure, there are people who are using this habit as a source of income but it requires skills to do that. Those who can analyze games to make their bets win in a higher percentage might be successful at doing it but still, the risk will always be there and the sad part is, it is our money that will be gone if we make a mistake unlike having a day job where you can just fix the mistake and you will still have a salary. I'd pick the latter.

[delfastTions]

Yeah, maybe it's difficult.  And a novice to gambling would still rather not read warning posts from experienced players, but would prefer to simply play for fun.  And of course, lose, lose your money, but also gain your own experience.  But starting from a certain point, especially if such a beginner begins to understand that something is wrong in his game, he still begins to read what more experienced players write.  In my opinion, this stage of perception of information about gambling from experienced players will begin earlier, which will be better for this newbie. 
By the way, he will most likely lose less money.

Well without going too far, when I was a beginner I played alone, I was gaining experience but I still felt like I was losing a lot of money and that was something I couldn't stop, no matter how many strategy videos I watched on YouTube I always ended up losing, one of the ways I understood more about the game was by comparing some things with trading and reading the posts on the players' forum, and although at first I couldn't find what I was looking for, I read advice that was very useful to me, currently my biggest learning is that you have to control your money so you don't have to control your emotions or something similar , so if at this point I do take up the game as a hobby again I know I won't lose money like when I was a newbie.

Oh yeah!  This is truly the best advice and it just means that you are as close as possible to the category of gamblers who are considered Pros.  Although you may not consider yourself such a player, it is the pros who know that they will not lose their money in the long run.  More precisely, they think so and are sure that this is almost guaranteed.  But of course they also have failures.  But this is rather a discussion about how to always and under any external circumstances control your emotions and the logic of your actions.

Yes, people can classify gambling as their hobby due to how often they get wins, but there is a fact to be believed in: no matter how much you like gambling, because of how often you win games, a time will come that you will lose drastically, and on such occasions, you will have to hate gambling with your heart. gambling depends on luck, but you can still use gambling as a source of generating revenue when you often win, but when you are in the era of losing, you can’t do that. But those that I will be sure they achieve more from gambling and will always approve gambling as their main source of generating revenue are those that own the casinos, either online casinos, apps, or physical casinos, because they know what they achieve in every second.

It is people that have self-control when gambling and will not go against overspending funds for gambling or go beyond their gamble budget that can take gamble as their hobby because they already have the understanding that they don't need to think of profit all the time but accept whatever the outcome of their bet is.

I got trapped by addiction for long and when I was able to overcome it, I started gambling occasionally to see how I can start gambling again but let it be in the lowest minimal so that I don't get trapped again. I am enjoying the way I gamble because I only gamble when I have chance depending on my mood at that moment.

[ethereumhunter]

I agreed with you because there are some people who play gamble every blessed day and they can't lived without playing gamble a day. So those people have already taken gambling has their hobby. And those gamblers lose and win every week so they are always on the casino website air Hall. Some people take gambling as their career because there is no any other job or work for them to do so all their life is just inside gambling.

We don't want to be like them which playing gambling almost every day. We only use gambling as part of our life and know when we must stop from playing gambling. We can't takes a big risks by playing gambling using more money because gambling can takes all of our money easily even we will not realizes what is going on with us. If those people already taken gambling as their hobby, they can lose all of their money and even they can becomes addicted to gambling.

That's why we must be careful when playing gambling and not trying to keeps playing gambling if we already playing gambling for some time. We don't know when we can win but we can lose our money anytime and that will not takes too long to have that experience. We can only use limitation to playing gambling so we can avoids the big lose. If we can treat gambling properly, we will not have to afraid if we will lose much money because we can prevents that happens to us.

[Chilwell]

Gambling is fun when you are winning but if you are not winning you will know that sometimes as fun as it can be it can also be very dangerous. I gamble everyday but I try as much as possible to control my self, not to go to extreme. Have a budget of what you want to gamble, so that you don’t go above your budget and lose money, everyone with their cross.

If you don't use gambling as a hobby and you can control yourself, you will be fine playing gambling. You will not have to gets in trouble because you knows the purpose to playing gambling.
You can control yourself while gambling so that will not makes you becomes excessively when playing gambling. That is why we must allocates some money to playing gambling and not use more money if we lose because gambling can tempts us easily.
We can use gambling for have fun which that is the reason why we gambling but we don't playing gambling too long because we knows the risks of playing gambling.

Whatever that can give you the kind of pleasure you want can also be used as a hobby. If gambling is your hobby does not mean that you will gamble excessively because that will lead to addiction and huge losses. I believe that we all have our jobs that keeps us busy most of the time and there will be limited time for our gambling activities. When you are in your leisure time, you can gamble. You can also gamble once a week or twice depending on how you want it does not mean that you will not be able to discipline yourself. My hobby is traveling but I hardly travel once in a month.

Some addicted gambler hide behind this hobby of a things to be deceiving people saying that they gamble for fun, in this case am not convinced with that, I fill so sorry for anyone that take gamble as hobby, I may not get it right from few people but if really that particular person understands the word hobby, if not they will not choose gamble as hobby. Some people can choose it as hobby which I will be convinced by them, someone who is already doing well financial making his own earnings from other source not from gamble, while someone with out money can't have it hobby, in this case I totally disagree with it because poor people don't have any choice of life they deal with what they see, which I refer this as an addiction.

[Nwada001]

Making gambling a hobby by someone who doesn't have strong control over their decision can be the starting point to getting addicted to gambling, because when something is your hobby, that means you love doing that particular thing every now and then, and when you don't do it again at your leisure time, it appears as if there is something missing, which is exactly the easiest way of getting addicted to gambling without even realising it.

Because of this people need to be honest with themselves, if they are impulsive and they are the kind that often have problems controlling themselves when drinking and other similar activities, then they need to avoid gambling at all costs.

But if after taking those factors into consideration, they still decided to gamble then they could face serious consequences, and once they realized their mistake they may try to stop gambling for good, something that is easier said than done, and that depending on their own determination and the treatment they receive, it could take them years to achieve this.

Exactly the point I was making in my comment above, and like I have said in a thread before that talks about causes of addiction, what I see is that those who get addicted to gambling are not necessarily driven by gambling itself.
 
But if you look at their life activity history, we can notice that they have an addictive life in some things that they do, which they might not consider important, maybe because it's not costing them money like gambling does, but at some point they are very lost to getting addicted when ever they get involved in activities that they derive joy from.

It's not even about how they win or lose, it's because they love doing it, if they make gamble there hobby because they win it will affect them whenever they lose. Someone can't make something his bobby because of his interest or what he is gaining from it, because when they opposite of it will come you won't be happy and it might result to more lose. This is also the main reasons why some gamblers are gambling more because they have lost the amount that they don't believe they can lose in gamble, and they still find a way to recover it by gambling again.

People, gambling is inevitable in life. People bet for the rush, the excitement, the friendship. Not always about the money is it. To be honest, though, things get deadly when it comes time to pursue losses, about desperation.

You have to establish restrictions. Not a financial burden, gambling should be enjoyable. You cannot let it to rule you. You oversee it. You enjoy the game, the surroundings, the people, much as on a lovely golf course. You do not let it, however, compromise your bank account.

Recall that life consists of more than only gambling. There is family, friends, employment, interests. Try not let it rule over you. Its concerning balance. Its about appreciating the game without allowing it to take front stage in town. Its about leading a rich, complete life apart from one defined by successes and defeats.

It’s great that you were able to overcome the trap of gambling addiction in the past and now sometimes play in such a way that you know in advance that you will never fall into this trap again.  This truly allows you to treat gambling as a hobby that generally provides hours of entertainment and only takes up as much money as you can afford to lose without having any major impact on your regular life.

It's very disheartening you know, to see that the higher population of gamblers are caught in the loop of gambling addiction and the worst part of it is that many of them do not even realize it and this has been the major probpem that has not just affected their personal life but of those that are also around them. This is the reason why people should try as much as possible to avoid falling into gambling addiction, because a lot more easier to break through from it when you discover it early and put a stop to it, rather than allowing it to grow and become completely part of you.

Anyone who considers gambling a hobby most likely has enough money to not consider gambling as a money making activity, as it is a misconception. He rather plays gambling for the sake of the process and the emotions that accompany this entertainment.

Any hobby can bring disappointment, not only gambling. For example, a person who likes to breed plants can get sick all the plants as a result of which will die. And for reasons beyond his control. A person who likes to ride a bicycle may break the frame of the bicycle or get crippled during the next ride. And he will also get negative emotions from the hobby. Such examples can be given endlessly, so this is not an argument.

I think over spending doesn't matter in some aspect. I can set a budget to gamble and when I notice that I'm about to lose, I can put an extra fund to counter bet the initial bets that I have stake in the first place and that can't be considered as over spending because if you look at it critically, this is either going to help you recover your initial or if you lost it, your initial will get you something that will be 4 times bigger than what you lose, this is just my scenario of over spending doesn't mean times.

Gambling is hobby but if you look deep into gambling, it's not hobby but a means of money making for people, that's just the primary intentions of many gamblers but it's not all of them that win money gambling and that is the sad reality of gambling, you can't win everytime which can be hurtful sometimes when you placed amount and have high expectations on the outcome.

Some players are lost in details and won't, in due time, discriminate between hobby and addiction. Reflexively, a player continues his regular gaming routine, as usual, forgetting he's crossed the line that separates addiction and hobby. Subsequently, an action that was good for the body had missed regulation and quietly circulates, without notice, anxiety in a player's brain causing neurosis and leaving him vulnerable. An unchecked or unexamined gambling activity in form of hobby or fun, is a threat to players. Merely instigating to our brain that it's just a hobby rarely builds any fortress against addiction. Unless it's kept an irregular habit, every gambling hobbyists is exposed to this compulsive threat just as any other player who doesn't assume he's indulging in gambling as a hobby.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

    -      In simple terms, a hobby is something we do that we want to do regularly because we enjoy it and it brings us joy as individuals. That's why the hobby we do should always be right and not harm us or others.

because there are other hobbies that are also not good, destroy our personalities, and also affect our people in a bad way. And this is what the rest of us don't understand.

Sometimes we overheard one say that they can stay a day without betting, I think that's a hobby but when it becomes worse it turns into an addition. Addiction is a thing one can't do without and it affects badly. The only time we can call it a hobby is when the gambler sets a maximum amount for himself to gamble with, we can call that a hobby but if the gambler gets to exceed the maximum limits over and over again that's when we say the gambler is addicted.

Some folks end up lost in the jungle. It's those folks who don't understand the game isn't just about the cards. It's about knowing your own damn mind. You gotta be self-aware, man. Like a seasoned fighter, you need to know your weaknesses. When you understand the triggers, the urges, you're not just gambling; you're mastering your own psychology

It's not about quitting, it's about balance. Treat your brain like a high-performance engine, you wouldn't fuel it with just sugar, right? Same goes for your life. Don't make gambling your only hobby. Expand your horizons. Read some philosophy, hit the gym, learn a new skill. That way, gambling stays a fun side quest, not the whole damn game. Knowledge is power. Understand yourself, and you'll find the sweet spot where gambling stays fun and doesn't take over your life. It's not rocket science, it's self-preservation

Well, I consider what you assent to in two ways, first, I consider it in the way of too much praise, do you know why? It's because, no matter how we believe we understand and hopeful in gambling, it can betray our trust, no one can ever be certain of both the immediate and future outcomes regardless of their experience in gambling. Some people have been hopeful and were happy, while some were hopeful and are now regretting it. Even those who were happy may still face later challenges, so what are we talking about?

On the second consideration, it's so easily possible, but the person has to define the branch of gambling he is talking about and not generalise it this way. In sports betting, being a testimony to it and also for the view of how it is being operated, it's fair and manageable to the point that in the long run, huge success could be made. But that can't be sad of casino unless we are deceiving ourselves. And even in sports betting, such a bettor must know the kind of option he is opting for, otherwise, the difficulty will naturally be raised by wrong approaches to frustrate his expectations.

You're right, although I'm Honestly not close to being a professional, because there are many players who have been in the Game for longer , and they really have the characteristics you say, they can lose in the long term and they don't lose control, however, despite Having some control over the game, I wouldn't take it as a hobby because that Would imply that it Could be done Every day and well , Playing like that in me I don't think I would be prepared for what a daily expense implies and according to my Commitments it's not ideal and it wouldn't be responsible either, but when it comes to having a lot of money maybe I would do it , but I would Focus on helping Others , I think that's better.

This is the reason why people should try as much as possible to avoid falling into gambling addiction, because a lot more easier to break through from it when you discover it early and put a stop to it, rather than allowing it to grow and become completely part of you.

Unfortunately, many players who are caught in this very loop of gambling addiction do not understand how this loop is tightening them even at a very early stage.  They simply never think about such developments in their gaming history.  By the way, even the fact that we are discussing this here may at least spark the thought in the minds of some players about whether this noose of addiction is personally tightening them?   This, in my opinion, is exactly the first step towards overcoming such passion and becoming a truly experienced and careful player.  Just the very thought of this is already a positive phenomenon in the life of a player and may well help him limit his participation in gambling.
