It's a question I asked myself this evening while playing a Slot game on a telegram casino. I asked myself this question, and was puzzled for a while because I was actually confused of what exactly to answer myself, I wasn't sure if money was what I wanted from gambling, or whether I was just playing to have fun, or whether I was gambling for both money and fun.
And honestly, I am still confused, because I've thought of money being what I wanted, then "what is my actual target?, what amount will be enough?" is the next question I asked myself, and I realized I didn't actually have any amount in mind, and this made me conclude that money wasnt really what I wanted, but it's not fun either, cus I cant have fun if I am not winning, like I would always say, " there is no fun in losing money".
So, I thought I should throw this question to the gambling community here, maybe I could draw some ideas from your ideas and contributions.
1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve. 2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
Or
Are you like me? Gambling with no sense of goal, direction?
Let's have a healthy discussion.

Maybe money is what you want but you have known with experience from gambling that it takes than give. Most people in life wants money.
If gambling is a guarantee means of earning, you will see yourself moving towards that direction more but gambling is just very different and you know that already which makes you think you are also not looking for neither money nor fun.
But some people gamble for fun.
I gamble for fun and I do not like to lose money from gambling at all but which is not possible. I use just little amount of money. If money is not involved, it will not be fun at all. I hate to lose and I know I really need to gamble with just small amount of money.

Gambling with no sense of goal, direction sounds about right to me. When I gamble I usually have 2 motivations. 1) I have a little bit of free time to kill, but not enough to get into something really entertaining and I want a quick jolt of entertainment. 2) I am emotionally invested in a sporting event and want to have some skin in the game.

Maybe the word directionless is more appropriate for me regarding the direction I'm heading when playing gambling. I just "want to gamble" not just about the win I want to achieve and I just want to be entertained but I'm also annoyed if I don't get something or experience defeat even though it's not a big amount but if I win I will definitely be more entertained than just playing and losing, I also don't understand the purpose but what is clear is that I only want to gamble when I really want it, not as a necessity but as entertainment. which is challenging because we are risking our money to lose it.
For me, I don't care even though the goal is not directed because pursuing too much ambition to win is also not good. Having too much fun in gambling is also not good so I just try to play normally, not too involved in the fun and also not too aim at winning big if I win I consider that victory as luck that I got that day but it is impossible to get it because only people who dare to take big risks are able to win big amounts of money too.

I completely understand your point of view. It sounds good that you are aware that your approach to gambling is more about entertainment than strategic goal setting. But it is important to recognize risks involved it is also refreshing to see someone acknowledging emotional aspect of gambling. It is Ok to enjoy thrill of gambling without too much attachment to winning or losing. Your approach to view wins as luck and not getting too caught up in pursuit of big wins is healthy one. Just remember to set boundaries and prioritize responsible gambling practices so that entertainment doesn't turn into harmful habit.

I'm not going to lie to everyone, I want to get the max win when I gamble, there's no other big and unconscious goal behind all of this, it's just that I want to make big money out of the small money that I've placed my bet into, no other way around it and if you're saying that you really want to gamble just for the entertainment then you're probably just lying to yourself and to everyone. I mean if you really are true to yourself, would you be able to give out your big wins if you're just playing for fun?

~ So, I thought I should throw this question to the gambling community here, maybe I could draw some ideas from your ideas and contributions.
1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve. 2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
Gambling with no sense of goal? I don't think that ever came to my mind already. I mean I'm gambling as well, but I always have a reason as to why I'm gambling. 1. Excitement. You know the feeling of excitement as you watch your favorite teams playing? That's the reason why if I have some spare funds, I always put it into gambling while watching some games to have some excitement. As for the losses, I don't care if I lose money anymore in gambling because I always have this mindset where if I already put that money into gambling, I consider it as a "lost money" therefore, I can adjust to it and will not feel anything if I lose them all. 2. Setting a goal, budgeting my monthly income and put some into gambling, and understand the risks that I'm getting whenever I'm gambling. I know that losing money isn't fun at all, and I know that because I'm like you as well. Losing money in gambling sucks, but we must always take note that our chances of losing money in gambling is higher than that of winning. I guess we need to re-program our brain to a point where we just accept when we lose money in gambling for us not to be disappointed in the end. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

This question is very simple but very technical. If you ask so many people on the street today what do they really want from gambling, majority will tell you they want money. Like they want to be wining money. Of course it is one of the motive of gambling to win. Because nobody will want to get involved in any gambling activity that he will be at the losing side every time. To me, I love to win gambling because it keeps me the energy to remain in the game. But at same money is not necessarily the reason why I played gamble. Some time I like the vibes always get from gambling. I like the fun and excitement from gambling. That is why sometimes when I lose, I just look at myself and smiles. The smile doesn't mean that I am happy that I lost a game, but when you really look at the whole scenario how it started to see that at last you lost or lose a game, it really something to smile about.

I used to have a goal like hitting a certain amount, but now it's more about trying to have a profitable day or break even. I know it's impossible, and that's why i've set a specific limit and hope I get lucky through some of the promotions or reward systems they put up along the way.
One of the steps i've taken is to create an account from several casinos so I can start progressing my way through the casinos' reward system and at the same time, wait for those profitable promotions to show up.

Let's have a healthy discussion.
I think it is better to not set a goal when you gamble. I mean you could just enjoy and have fun for a moment while you escape the harsh reality. Setting goals like you want to win big and get rich, put a huge bet one time and walk away with a huge profit, is something that is really really hard to achieve that you end up getting broke just before you even feel that you're not even close to achieving that goal. This is where most people get lost, those who have wrong intentions in gambling may most likely going to end up lossing more than actually winning. So, it's better to treat gambling as a temporary outlet to relieve stress while earning profit is a good bonus you can get when you win.

What do you really want from gambling? 1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve.
Like the other people or most people want it is to Hit the jackpot like a million dollar or so and then go away buy a house and nice car and invest rest of it to invest. I mean apart from the fun of gamble what else? Huge JackPot right.
2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
The fun part is I don't think is possible to achieve hahaha

If you're don't have anything to achieve, you not having fun and you're don't want to lose, it means you shouldn't gamble at all!
Why doing something when you didn't get anything and has no sense of goal? it's like, why learn Bitcoin and try to understand it, when you will not invest in Bitcoin.
1. I gamble for fun, I'm not trying to achieve jackpot or huge multipliers, but gambling make me more interested with the sports that I like to watch.
2. When I pay more attention with the match and spend more time before making bet.

1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve.
If someone answering this question is honest, it's always about the money. Winning more money despite that it's more chance of losing than winning. The other reason will typically be said as having fun and for entertainment purposes. 2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
Just repetitive actions from betting on the sports that I am familiar with. But I have forgotten about that goal, if I win some then that's nice and if I lose, I accept. Are you like me? Gambling with no sense of goal, direction?
More likely, and you know what? I think it's best to have this kind of view. You're not obliged to force yourself to gamble more.

I like your question, which is very simple and at the same time it makes you think. And I know the answer: why am I in gambling?
I haven't been playing lately precisely because I only expect income from gambling and betting. I don't care about emotions, I need money. And I know that this is a very dangerous and wrong approach to gambling. But I don't need emotions, I get them from various other sources, and right now I'm only concerned about money winnings. That's why I often bet on small matches of unfamiliar teams in football.

I haven't for a moment asked myself all of these questions, I prefer not asking as not to get the wrong answers thinking it's the right answer. Having a precise goal about what you actually want from gambling could make you gamble more than you should all because you want to achieve your target expectation. You'll just lose more than you gain because gambling is not a guaranteed means of income that a success from it is heavily determined by how much work and time we put into for us to set a target towards it.
I choose to just gamble within the realms of responsible gambling in all appearance but with no explicit expectations as to what I really want. Whatever comes my way I accept it as it comes. It's good to hope for the best as we gamble but in doing so we should also expect the worse too to stay in balance.

Initially when I started to gamble a bit, it was to get lucky and hopefully win big that'll change my fortune, but then I realized that gambling wasn't a get rich quick scheme. Now I just gamble for the thrill of it, take a little risk with the amount that I can afford to loose, and try not to worry much if I lose a bet, and if it happens that I win, I'll be more thrilled and that is it. I've learned not to take gambling too seriously a ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ;)s a none professional gambler, I just engage in it as a pass time to have fun, not too serious about winnings because it doesn't happen often.

It's a question I asked myself this evening while playing a Slot game on a telegram casino. I asked myself this question, and was puzzled for a while because I was actually confused of what exactly to answer myself, I wasn't sure if money was what I wanted from gambling, or whether I was just playing to have fun, or whether I was gambling for both money and fun.
And honestly, I am still confused, because I've thought of money being what I wanted, then "what is my actual target?, what amount will be enough?" is the next question I asked myself, and I realized I didn't actually have any amount in mind, and this made me conclude that money wasnt really what I wanted, but it's not fun either, cus I cant have fun if I am not winning, like I would always say, " there is no fun in losing money".
So, I thought I should throw this question to the gambling community here, maybe I could draw some ideas from your ideas and contributions.
1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve. 2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
Or
Are you like me? Gambling with no sense of goal, direction?
Let's have a healthy discussion.
A basic goal IMO should be to have fun. I also don't recommend trying to win a million dollars in 1 day. If you go somewhere to play with $100 and you get to $200, call it a day and go home a winner. If you lose $100, call it a day and go home -100. Don't chase losses and don't lose an amount that you'll regret.

Gambling with no sense of goal, direction sounds about right to me. When I gamble I usually have 2 motivations. 1) I have a little bit of free time to kill, but not enough to get into something really entertaining and I want a quick jolt of entertainment. 2) I am emotionally invested in a sporting event and want to have some skin in the game.
Your second option is a major one for me as I think one major reason I bet on a particular match or game is to have a strong support for that very team and since I’ve already invested money, I would have more time to watch and support the team I’m already betting my money on😁 On the other hand, I think every gambler wants money, why are we always shy to spit the truth that we all want money when we gamble🥺 Firstly I ask myself, are these casinos shy to take out money when we lose a bet? Hey no, so why will I be shy to say I’m gambling to make some extra money? For me, whenever I bet on a game, there is always a consciousness for me to want to make extra money but that doesn’t mean I will chase my lose, if I win, it’s a win and if I lose it’s a lose and just as @yahoo62278 already said, just have a target when gambling and that’s all.

I have a similar mood when, for any pastime, I have one question: “Why?” Why play, why money, why?... ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I think many people sometimes play out of boredom. But this suggests something is wrong with a person’s inner life. Something happens when desires cease to be relevant, and we don’t know what to do with ourselves. At these moments, you probably need active rest to distract yourself from a decadent mood, or, on the contrary, to load yourself with work that takes physical and mental strength.

I search for adrenaline from gambling. But a light version of it. Not the same adrenaline when you do bungie jumping or risk your life. But that moment when you place your bet, and look at the ball spins/dealer takes cards/rocket flies/symbols rotate in slots. That moment when you wait, guess and calculate what the result could be. I think we get same emotions when we open presents as kids, we more or less understand what is in the gift box, but we are never sure.
