How do you understand entertainment?

[Cryptomultiplier]

I also think so, where entertainment is when you gamble just for fun and don't focus too much on getting rich from your gambling activities. Because in my personal opinion, when a gambler only focuses on getting rich from their gambling and forgets the fact that their chances of getting rich from it are not that high, then in the end they will be disappointed because they lose a lot just to get rich. So instead of having to stress and think too much about getting rich from gambling, I prefer to gamble for entertainment - but it's not that I don't want money from it, it's just that I'm not that focused on pursuing wealth from it.

Yes gambling is foolish to try to make a career or to become a big man gambling only for fun. There is a lot of entertainment to be had after winning at gambling but losing doesn't hurt much if the money is used only for fun.  However, I feel very guilty when I get a big win while gambling but continue to gamble and lose them again. Regrettably then, if the cashout was done at that time, a lot of profit could have been made. Then we don't have that entertainment

The highlighted text explains my stand and how I do feel when after winning big, I get greedy and try to win some more without cashing out and probably changing to another game to try my wits and be entertained.
For me, entertainment in gambling comes when I don't have much work and am bored waiting on the results of either matches I placed a bet on or just trying to play off the remainder of funds left in my betting or gambling account.

Personally, I also think a lot of people are already getting themselves very confused on their purpose of gambling and some other people are confused with what entertainment in gambling means and just as op already stated that that, a lot of people  try to define entertainment to suit themselves and personally I don’t see anything entertaining in gambling if I’m not making profit and having some great wins.

I think a lot of people are along trying to follow the crowd to say, they only gamble for fun and entertainment but frankly what’s really entertaining about losing in gambling and that’s why I always and still stand on the ground that, gambling only gets entertaining when the winnings are more than the losses.

For me, entertainment in gambling is when you see the slots spinning in all colors that you can see and the music and the performances in the casino, entertainment is something that should make you happy and reduce your stress. Regarding the main driving force, I really don't believe that's the truth because you're really gambling for fun? Why not just waste your time on games that don't require you to waste your money too?

Entertainment is something that can gives fun for us. Gambling is just one of many entertainment that we can gets so we can uses it to have fun even if we lose our money. Actually, other entertainments can makes us spends money. For example, you go to cinema and watch the movie, you spends some money to buy the ticket, watch the movie, and enjoy it. You lose your money because you buy the ticket but you satisfy with that because that's the money you can afford to uses to watch the movie at the cinema.

Gambling is just like that. You spends your money to enjoy the gambling games and you only uses the money you can afford to lose. But if you breaks your limits by using more money, you will lose much money. It's about how much money you will spends in gambling and enjoy the game, even if you loses that money, you will not have a problem because you knows that playing gambling can makes you lose the money.

Yes, that's right, the point is that entertainment is something that can give a pleasant impression in any way without thinking about the results at the end of the game, as you say that entertainment in gambling is when we see some symbols spinning or rolling with the rhythm of music that makes us feel an unusual sensation regardless of the outcome of the game like in the type of slot game, or when we are involved in the type of sports betting then the excitement of watching a tense and exciting match is also the main point of gambling that should be enjoyed, or the point is that it is better to focus on the excitement than the results that we will get when it's all over.

Entertainment is something that we should be able to enjoy? Of course, meaning that when the activity cannot provide us with entertainment or pleasure then it is clearly not entertainment, and I am sure that the tension along with some of the pressure is often felt by gamblers who have entered the addiction phase, or that means often felt by those who gamble in the wrong way, so that means that something that is only recommended to be used as a place to seek entertainment should not be treated too seriously.

We tend to find entertainment in gambling in our own ways, and that's what make the fun more colourful. Some person like slot game because it's easy to make predictions by just guessing. But I love sport gambling because it also involves you to associate in watching the games to be able to make your own analysis and predictions that guarantees more fun and excitement whenever you win a bet. You could even play among yourselves using any card game or dice and get the best from the moment. Gambling is fun when you don't add addiction into the process spending above your limits will only make you regret gambling in the first place so I urge you Al to gamble responsible.

Why not just waste your time on games that don't require you to waste your money too?

You don't waste money so you play on a demo account, will this be fun? Of course not, because you will not feel satisfied with the challenging sensation demo game then you will not be entertained.

It's better to take the time to gamble on the weekends, but a little money goes a long way even though you won't be able to play for much longer unless you win.

Demo games arent that fun (trust me) . Yes, you wont really be able to lose money but you cant also be able to gain either. Therefore, your brain would be telling into you that this aint fun.
You would really be needing that real funds for you to earn something real too on which this is really that understandable. It is really just that depending on a certain person but well
when we do speak about demo games then it is really just that for the sake of testing out the game but just like been said that this isnt something that could really be fun and this is
why that majority of gamblers wont really be  touching up this area and would really be directly make out real deposits and play live balances.

Entertainment and thrill could really be felt on the moment that you do make use of real balance on which it would really be just that typical. The only issue on here is that
whenever that someone doesht have that kind of control towards his/her spending then this is where shit things do happen.

What happens to me most of the time while gambling is that after winning big I can't cash out because I get too greedy while gambling. Due to excessive greed I lose all money in gambling. I know gambling is a bad addiction.  I have lost a lot of money due to gambling. But now I have controlled myself and prepared to gamble. When I spend extra time on gambling that is when I get addicted to gambling. So I always try to gamble less time.

[Egii Nna]

For me entertainment in gambling is the moment when you wait the result of a round/bet/game. When I make a deposit to gamble, I consider that I have already spend money. I dont expect to win. So even if I lose, I am not much disappointed or dont turn angry, not a tragedy for me. I feel like "this time you was better, but lets try out this now". This is sort of a positive challenge for me. I get a positive vibe in the end. A portion of fun. Like karting with friends. You ride, you hit others, you surpass others, you lose positions, and in end you are exhauster, but talk about riding sessions with friends. Even though you did not win anything, you can ride your own car every day, and you have spend money.

All those can be considered as entertainment after a while, but not at the same time, because that time that you will be waiting for the results of the game or bet you have already invested in is a time of tension. That is the time that you will be very nervous until you see the results. That is when you will either be happy or sad. That is why, to me, I take gambling as entertainment from the past experience because when you remember the things you did, you will just laugh and, if possible, tell your friends the story of the incident. 

Although everyone has their own ways to drive pleasure, that is why it is always good to know where you can really gain pleasure, which can help you promote your mental health. Because if you already know where to gain happiness from, you will find it easy to manipulate yourself and find peace of mind.

Same as what i think. What i really want to see in gambling is how the spinning play. For the example, i really enjoy how the gameplay when i played Gates of Olympus in Rollbit and tried the spins. Really an entertainment for me, i don't need the prize or the jackpot coming, if i got the jackpot, i think it's only a bonus and not taking that seriously for profits.

So the point is, i never thought that gambling is kind of way to get wealth. I keep my limitation in gambling, never do play gambling so serious, that is the wise way for giving ourself a reward by got some entertains.

[Gaza13]

There is no other meaning other than being happy with what you are doing  (being entertained). But our emotions mix it up and instead, we entertain ourselves by gambling, it becomes a reason for our regrets and disappointments.

I believe that gambling was for entertainment before but now, it is nothing. Why? People gamble for the sake of money, not for the sake of having enjoyment. That is the sad reality but yes, gamblers often change because of their needs and they think that gambling is the answer to their financial problems.  

Indeed, each person has a different view on how to respond to their form of entertainment, even though for every form of entertainment they must spend money to please someone or themselves. For people who very rarely gamble, this could be the place of entertainment that they are looking for, a form of entertainment that can make money. money, and Anything is available there. But people who are too hopeful look for answers to their financial problems there. I think this is too very risky, this will make you fall even deeper into your defeat.

[Nwada001]

This is incorrect. The gambling industry is a multi billion dollar one and has been in existence for several centuries. Those who gamble for fun cannot sustain an industry for so long and put in as much money as is required to attract hundred of thousands of casinos and sport gambling websites.

Gambling enthusiasts are the real drivers of the gambling industry.

I also agree with you on this: if gamblers are only gambling for fun, there is no time they will be going all in with the amount of money they wager per bet slip without even minding.
 
No matter how they try to put it, I always believe that if it's not for the expected winnings gamblers expect to win from the game, there is no way one is going to place a bet with thousands of dollars even if they can afford it; the amount they bet is based on the amount they expect to win.

[Woodie]

Let's face this at face value, usually when it comes to the word "entertainment" in gambling ...usually this means not taking gambling to heart such that when you lose one get's suicidal or trying to cause body harm to oneself.... We all know the primary goal of course when it comes to gambling is make money, but the journey should be treated as fun &games( entertainment) if you win be happy, if you lose then laugh about it and get on with life.

[Zoomic]

Rich people also gamble, are they gambling for the money? I don't think so. Elderly people gamble, they can do this everyday because this is what gives them joy. Going to the casino, socialising with friends, other gamblers and the positive outcome from games played is fun and entertaining. Winning and the jubilation that comes after it is a great form of entertainment. What I find entertaining might not be welcomed by the next person. In the course of trying to get entertained, losses too may come up. The burden of such losses will only be light on those who gamble with what they can afford to lose. Gambling with your life's savings is no fun but a very risky move.

[Findingnemo]

For me, the term entertainment is something that gives the excitement factor which is obviously the split second between bet and results that varies for every individual.

In general you can't fit into a definition of entertainment while gambling cause is subjective to the personals but as long as they are doing it without facing any financial loss or getting addicted to it then they are enjoying it but there is a thin line between entertained/addict so never cross that line folks.

[Agbamoni]

Whenever i hear people say they gamble for entertainment i found it hard to believe them. If they want entertainment in gamble, then they can visit live casinos which are not online and gamble over there. Right there the fun is realistic and the excitement it brings is true. When it comes to online gambling, i don't see any form of entertainment there, the sole aim of people gambling online is for them to make wins and take there profits.

I really don't believe that's the truth because you're really gambling for fun? Why not just waste your time on games that don't require you to waste your money too?

Now you're talking. There are lots of games with the same color effects and style like the ones we see in the casinos, there are also casinos games we can play virtually without having to stake money in it. Is it that the fun they refer to is when they lose? Because i see no reason why they choose to throw away money just for fun.

Slot games do provide their own attractive music and each round makes gamblers feel entertained and happy, they can relieve their fatigue through the game, but if all they have in mind is to win and get money, if they lose, they will be increasingly stressed and not can be entertained in gambling because he doesn't get entertainment that he thinks is fun (winning some money). This is not about being able to make a profit in gambling but rather being able to be entertained by gambling without the pressure and attitude of wanting to win because if we lose we don't accept it.

And in the end you will chase defeat which will lead to more and more losses. In fact, there are many games that don't require wasting money, but a person's happiness is different depending on what someone wants to do for fun. Such as whether some like gambling, some like other activities, let them have fun according to them, gambling is not always bad if it can be used as well as possible and is not careless in placing bets and is not too ambitious to win, just use it as entertainment through the game.

According to Wikipedia  "Entertainment is a form of activity that holds the attention and interest of an audience or gives pleasure and delight. It can be an idea or a task, but it is more likely to be one of the activities or events that have developed over thousands of years specifically for the purpose of keeping an audience's attention." So in this case gambling if you have the form of interest and gives you a pleasure than it consider as entertainment and you might consider gambling is for fun

[bubilas]

In gambling, entertainment is emotions that bring different moments:
The moment when the gambler has made a deposit and already understands that it is possible thanks to this money he will now be able to win something.
This is also the moment when the gambler decides on a bet and launches, for example, a slot machine.
This is also the moment when the slot lines line up and the gambler feels powerful anticipation and excitement.
