How do you understand entertainment?

[HelliumZ]

Entertainment might be different for everyone and it is important to know what is your entertainment and what are you planning to do to be entertained. I don’t think it’s always going to be straightforward because we are all different and it is in terms of what we want really.

I agree with you, different people have different concepts about entertainment, some people prefer to spend $500 at the casino while others spend that same amount on a dinner with drinks, and both of them are looking for entertainment. But only one of them has the chance to end with profit, and that one is the one who has fun with gambling.

I hardly believe that gambling has an entertainment side without a doubt. Is a good way to have a good time.

Different people have different types of entertainment but earning money from entertainment is also different. Some spend their time in casinos and gambling sites to earn money as well as entertainment while others spend their time climbing mountains for entertainment. Others seek entertainment by sitting at home reading funny books while others want to travel with their girlfriends on a long drive. Just as there is no shortage of people in the world, there is no end to the variety of human entertainment.  But entertainment means entertainment to find a little relief in a weary life.

But I see in this a certain cognitive activity, only with poorly formulated goals. For example, you play in order to understand the laws of the game over time and learn to win more often.
 Or maybe entertainment for you is something else?

The last part of your post settles everything.... It has never made sense to me that people say they only gamble to have fun. There's a lot of things you can do for fun; if you wanna have fun, hit the gym. You wanna have fun, pick up swimming lessons etc...  you don't stake heavily on a game that has a possibility of high returns and you call it "just for fun". Everyone is always expecting something at the end, otherwise why do you make speculation before wagering? The shouldn't be any need for that.

Entertainment? - for me, I feel it shouldn't go beyond the "reefs". Also, you said they seldom play on those games just to understand the rules to WIN MORE OFTEN?

Lolz 😂, what you said makes a whole lots of sense to me to be honest, the truth of the matter actually is that, many of the gamblers who claim to be gambling for fun or as a means of entertainment are actually saying that for two possible reasons..
1. As a way to convince themselves so they don't feel too bad just incase when they lose money.
2. Or either so they don't get judged by other gamblers who might accuse them of gambling for money when that not what gambling is meant for.
Or maybe for both reasons actually.

But then, the truth of the matter remains that, every gambler that is wagering real hard earned money is expecting to win, which also translates to making profit, and this is not just a truth, but a fact actually.

oops, careful with your jaws 😉..I don't know why they haven't been able to say things exactly the way is it.

Although what you said is true, i don't think anyone can suppress that adrenaline rush in them.. especially when you're watching the games being played.. another sign of nervousness would be rechecking and reloading flashscore.mobi everytime.

Without a doubt! The expectation continues until the results are out...  Alot of people that go about telling others that they wager for fun would feel a deep regret when they bag a huge loss instead of winning.

However, from the beginning I don't accept the fact that I (my self) is gambling for fun because I know a lot of things that I can use my money to do and I will find peace from them. But the truth is that I just developed this mindset that I am gambling for fun😊, but inside me I know I am not. Moreover your first point is not bahd because it's actually says about me. But I am sure that there are some gambler that are gambling for fun out there. Besides the reasons why I said that I am gambling for fun is because I only gamble with the amount I can afford to risk. When you gamble with the amount you can afford to risk you won't feel too bad even when you lose them.

How about you just STF up and relax? This write-up ain't making no sense at all .. you don't gamble for fun? That's absolutely no one's business.. Why y'all repeating the same cookie-cutter post everytime?

Although it's quite obvious that you don't gamble, but lemme just play along; sounds like you really like to have fun with your money?

One of the most honest answers I've seen in a while... You could have as much fun as you wish, but you gotta pay for it... I don't even think there's a possibility that a person living in affluence would wager a dime, without anticipation.
