Beyond Wagering

[doomloop]

What are some of the hobbies that you have picked up as a result of your long term gambling but that doesn't involve gambling? If you are an avid gambling who is not addicted that is you have control over your gambling you may have caught yourself unconsciously being attracted to so other activities within the sphere of gambling that doesn't involve wagering. As for me one of such hobbies /pastime is being active in a forum like this where there are gambling enthusiasts. I enjoy joining in the discussions that go on here, I also enjoy sharing tips and reading the experiences of other people with similar interests in gambling.

The habits that I can think of that one could get into if they are a gambling enthusiast are collecting items that are related to gambling such as decorative chips, gambling tables, cups, and classes with gambling logos and quotes, etc. Another hobby could be that a gambler might love watching gambling-related videos, movies, or streams where people gamble to entertain the audience. To be honest, I also love watching gambling videos and streams, it is just fun.

I think these are the hobbies that I can think of that a person can get into once they become a gambler if they are serious with their gambling or they enjoy gambling a lot and want to have everything related to gambling around them. Some people would also enjoy making friends with fellow gamblers they meet here and there.

A gambler must always want to involve himself and themselves into a gambling related tells and discussions through that they get possible information towards the team or club they are to bet to, most time it will be more interesting to join some groups that is entirely dedicated for gambling discussions without involving in any other activities. There is also this desire to start some kinds of affiliates programs such as sharing their ref codes and running promotion for a particular casinos that doesn't give him or her issues when making withdrawal or deposit.

I think that as a player on gambling sites, I've started to like football more. I didn't watch anything and didn't care about my local teams at all.

However all this interaction with gambling led me to meet many people that like gambling, and for most of them sports love went hand in hand with it. So through discussion and friendships I've managed to pick up a taste for football too. Now I watch my local teams' progress and I also occasionally look into big matches. For someone that didn't watch big sports at all, I think this is a positive change. Now I too can resonate with something a very big part of society also does.

It's interesting though that most people have the exact reverse experience. In other words going into gambling because a lot of its promotion is based on sports and they liked sports from before.

I've always loved solving puzzles and that's how I got into gambling. In principle, any gambling game can be considered as a kind of puzzle. But there are a lot of elements I like about gambling. And calculating odds and various philosophical elements of sports, winning and losing. You know, it was gambling that led to the creation of the theory of probability. I believe that in gambling there are still a huge number of unexplored areas and an equally huge number of undiscovered patterns. Gambling teaches you to think probabilistically.

Hmmm, I like to be as optimistic as you.

But, you are right. Somehow I get to try and make a strategy too whenever I play slots. I know there's no such thing when it comes to those types of games but what if there is?
What I do is withdraw quickly whenever I reach the minimum withdrawal amount. The only wall that I could see was the wagering requirement after winning a large amount and I have experienced it a lot of times.
One time I won the x400 in a slot game and I wanted to withdraw it quickly then a warning popped out telling me I had not reached the wager yet. Sadly, I lost it all while trying to reach that amount.
It's a strategy that I thought could work but there's always that obstacle where the system will cut you.

My personal observation is that I am now drawn to movies that have a casino story line. In the last couple of months I have seen more than 10 movies on gambling. It is almost relatable to real life. And I request that you reading  this recommend more casino movies with me. I tried it with casino books or novels but it is just boring.

I thought it was weird at first, because I know I’ve never fancied any movies that had to do with those type of storyline except it was a thriller movie or magical adventure type of movie but recently I noticed that I was able to complete “Uncut gems” without having to skip any scene of the movie. I guess my gambling habit might have contributed to it like you said.

The Uncut Gems is a nice movie, but for you not to have known outrightly the reason why you watched it completely could only make it uncertain that your gambling life made it possible, the reason should have struck you immediately. Any movie that is interesting will always be captivating, especially with some casts and it is not peculiar to our lifestyle at the same time. But for me, I do not think I've ever been so compelled to watch movies simply because they depict my hobbies. I have my kind of movies and frankly, I've let go of many gambling and crypto movies despite being fully involved in them.

However, if I see some characters in them, then they are my must-watch. But what gambling has made me undeniably do in my living is to be more calculative and managerial. I do not trust anything but calm down to analyze wisely before making a decision.

It's the unknown that really awaken gamblers, like you and me. It could be puzzle for you and you see yourself as a problem solver. But for me, it's the adventure, I mean we will have a boring life if everything is written for us and we all know what's going to happen next. And so it's a very different mindset if we gamble, we wanted to test our luck and again that unknown, we don't know what the next dice will be in relation to our bet. Or that last combination, last bet but then you hit the bonus and win big, that's adventure.

And that's what teaches us as well, beyond the wagering and we put everything in line. Others specially non-gamblers will not understand that risk that we take. That YOLO attitude. But if we look back at it, we can say one example is one thread that you open about the founder of CEO and how gambling save his company.
