Which one of those did you partake in?

[entertheabyss]

Responsible gambler who is said to gamble for fun is not identified by words but by their gambling actions which are not excluded to loss chasing, gambling excessively, compulsive gambling and the likes.

That you give yourself a target percentage to use for gambling out of your salary or savings doesn't make for complete exhaustion of that percentage to gambling. If am to expend any percentage for gambling from a 10,000$ savings it wouldn't be 10%, that's much for a 10k savings. And I think it would be much fun and entertaining if less percentage should be used for someone with a 10k savings.

Percentage are shares and this will take the next phase. Responsible gambler will partake in gambling that will fetch them huge earnings. Gambling is a tough one, we should be able to stationed for good strategies for winnings. Giving yourself a target is necessary and we know basically what to do.

This makes sense because for one to have fun while gambling it means that the person is gambling within his financial capacity and it also means that the person is having a positive and enjoyable experience from the gambling. Once you can exercise financial control you are on your way to having a enjoyable experience from the gambling because you are no longer worried about the payout base on your wager. You are simply enjoying the game for what it is.

I am beginning to think that the only time a gambler gambles for fun is only when he gambles with what he can afford to lose. In this case, a gambler has $10,000 as his savings, and he gambles with $1000 down, he or she won't feel sad when they lose it (it means they gambled for fun). But if a gambler who has the same $10,000 gambles for above $5,000, and he loses all of them, the gambler won't be happy about his actions, and it might result in chasing of losses (which means he didn't gamble for fun). It means that both those that say they aren't gambling for fun sometimes gamble for fun, mostly when they risk an amount they can afford to lose. The actual time you gamble for fun is when you risk what you can afford to lose and not when you say you want to gamble for fun. However, a gambler might say he will gamble for fun and still end up not gambling for fun when he starts gambling. One can know a responsible gambler if he starts gambling.

Well I'm very much confused what is going one, the question is not clear enough but from what I understand generally is how to we determines a responsible gambler when they are betting already! for me once some knows how control his or her emotions then he or she is a responsible gambler.

while from you topic title I can say I'm a responsible gambler.

As others said before, it seems that the title doesn't match with the post, and we can only try to guess what OP meant.

I interpret that what he wants to ask is whether we have ever bet a limited percentage of our savings and not more, but for most of us even a limited percentage of our savings is too much to risk.

I agree that to have fun in lotteries or gambling a few bucks at a time are enough. Betting a lot of money is never a good idea to me because if you lose it is clear that you will feel very bad with yourself, but even if you win the lesson you are learning is that winning the money that's so hard to earn is easy, which is even worse.

Financial control, yeah that's an important thing to bear in mind. We need to know how to manage our funds so we can remain disciplined when gambling. Of course, as gamblers, we all have our individual ranges. Actually, 10% of our income is already significant, unless we're really doing well and making our gambling activities profitable.

I'd like to assume that when we talk about "gambling for fun," it means we have more losses than wins. If that's the case, then we should be spending on gambling as a form of entertainment, which is fine as long as we're having fun.

However, a gambler might say he will gamble for fun and still end up not gambling for fun when he starts gambling. One can know a responsible gambler if he starts gambling.

Even the casino have always advice for responsible gambling much more than they would want you to gamble because they always know how much ruin gambling can cause a gambler if they don't gambler responsibly by making sure they are not gambling what they can afford to loose at a time some gamblers don't put into consideration even when they are gambling for sun or to make money of gambling which in turn hurts them when they eventually go bankrupt. gambling for fun isn't only when you gamble with that which you can afford to loose because some time you may no have fun loosing such funds even if they are still small but then you still try to make it look like you are gambling for fun meanwhile you are gambling to see how well you can be able to multiply or double up that small sum so you can be able to get things done with that which you hope to realize as your profit. Not gambling for fun sometimes can also be gambling with that which you can afford to loose probably because its you strategy as at the time you are gambling with such amount and so if its lost its as painful as when you loose a huge sum to gambling but then gambling for fun can come with even staking huge amounts but then responsible gambling is what brings about the real regulation of your stakes into amounts that are not regrettable in case the uncertainties of gambling plays out.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Well, I think I agree with some things you have said @OP. A gambler who is actually gambling for fun or who wants to gamble for fun will always spend just the amount they can afford to lose or the person will have a definite budget which after they have spend that amount, they will not gamble again until their casino balance is refilled again from a fresh budget. Someone who is gambling for fun will not chase losses because once they spend all their money for that they, they will not even have another money to chase losses. Those that chase losses in gambling can not be classified as people who are only gambling for fun. Those people that gamble for the sake of making profit will always gamble above their budget and they will continue to chase losses until they lose everything they had.

gambling with up to 10% of your groose earning is reckless. And wether you call it fun or not, in the long run it's going to mess you up and you will call it addiction. You don't use fun as an excuse for lack of accountability with regards to how you allocate which amount should get into a thing and which ratio should go into another. For me, anything above 3% to 5% is pure reckless gambling and continuous use of such amount could lead to disaster somewhere along the line.  The issue with some people is the certainty they normally have about playing a game and  might look as though you wouldn't loose if you try using a big amount but when it eventually happens, you get to learn your lesson the hard way.

well for me , the best way to decide if we are to have fun or to target winning is to put or to allocate the enough amount each time we gamble .
if you are to have fun then bring 100-500  dollars but if you are to  try winning for life then allocate thousand or more money but make sure to know when to stop .

[Agbe]

Gambling for fun is not the same thing as gambling for profit or gain. If a gambler is gambling for fun then his loses would not pain him o there would be no chase of loses but whereby the gambler is foe gain and profit making then he would gamble with all the $10,000 and if he loss them it would be very painful. And it is not normal for a gambler to gamble the whole $10,000 net worth. That is not a wise decision. Using 2% from the $10,000 is good for average or occasional gambler. A gambler who is for fun will only hang out with friends to event centers and not to gambling halls, and centers to gamble. But to hand out with family members and pay to have fun with any game of their choice. And in most times it is amazement parks and not to casino website or hall.

If you are gambling and the amount you are gambling with is not something you can afford to lose, then you are no longer gambling for fun, you have a motive for gambling. How will you spend a huge amount of money on gambling, If you lose, you will end up regretting why you gambled, then  that’s not really fun.

However, a gambler might say he will gamble for fun and still end up not gambling for fun when he starts gambling. One can know a responsible gambler if he starts gambling.

Some people do say it publicly that they are gambling just for fun, but seriously, most of them are just addicted to gambling. They don’t really want people to know about their addiction, so they just hide it, and some people don’t even know they are addicted to gambling, they just think what they are doing is normal.

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

I always gamble only with the amount I can afford to lose. And most of the time it's only the price of a cup of coffee. That's my strategy, because when I do that I don't get upset when I lose. And when I do that, even the simplest matches turn into extremely entertaining matches for me. I bet for fun and I will continue to do so. I can't buy better entertainment for the price of a cup of coffee. I cannot gamble for any other reason. I don't think I can get rich gambling. I don't have that kind of luck.

[Pandorak]

Unfortunately, not all gamblers has a good mindset as you said.

At the beginning, most of gamblers start to gamble without any consideration of the risks. That's happened to me when starting to gamble, maybe about 2021, i start without any considering that i would ready for any loss, and finally i've got addicted with it, it's an heavy year i think, but i gratefully thanks to my self, i already stopped as an addicted gamber, and even for now i play gamble as my considerations to all the risks, and believing that i am a responsible gambler for now.

what do you mean by percentage are shares? Do you mean to say they are like investment shares or what?

Participating in gambling by going after  huge earning can be very risky and frustrating as smaller wins are easier to come by than huge wins which could make a gambler experience series of losses over a long time of gambling. Perhaps the reason why we see those posts in the gambling board talking about how they have been experiencing losses over time without a single interlude win. Since gambling is a tough game even though we do share some fun in it it's fundamental to be mindful of the size of wins we go for as the higher the amount the higher the risk involved.

Nobody when to lose money whether it is small amount or not, even with what someone can afford to lose,it is not all gambler that gamble for fun. But truth is that not matter how small the amount this when someone lose it, it will sure pain them, so i don't know why many do claim they can for fun.

However, a gambler might say he will gamble for fun and still end up not gambling for fun when he starts gambling. One can know a responsible gambler if he starts gambling.

People are just claiming they are gambling for fun, but from my own view, a lot are not gambling for fun. If someone truly gambles for fun, when they lose, the gambler should not react badly because it is for fun. Many people are just saying they are gambling for fun in public because of people who will criticize them, but truly they are not gambling for fun; they are gambling to make money. In fact, I hardly believe people who always say they are gambling for fun because, for me, I don't gamble for fun. I am gambling to make money.

[piebeyb]

Every gambler should not gamble more than 5% of his income, this may get him used to increasing his ability to lose that money, in essence gambling with money that is ready to be lost, whatever percentage of our income, but keep in mind that being a responsible gambler is not easy because you have to be really consistent in protecting yourself from emotional feelings when you lose at gambling, every gambler when they lose will definitely catch up on their losses or feel annoyed.

I am a responsible gambler, before gambling I usually set my budget with my wife, because she is good at managing finances in my household so I am given a limit by her to gamble no more than 5% of my income unless I get more money, in essence I use it to have fun doesn't mean I'm happy when I lose, I will straighten out my opinion about gambling for fun. The meaning of having fun is to change your thinking pattern so that it's not focused on money, in essence it's like we buy tickets to watch and have fun watching the show and so on. , so let's just say we don't spend money on gambling but on buying tickets to watch. that's how gamblers who have fun are like, the point is, never use money beyond your financial capabilities. 

[bitbollo]

playing with 10% of total saving is really huge amount. In just 10 years you can loss everything!
I think that savings or amount that you can save for the future must never been used for the future. Or just 1% of this, if there is a real experience in gambling/betting.
By the way I don't think that an amount bigger then 3% of monthly salary should be used in gambling...

You are not wiring actually, because gambling with 10% for your income is not a good idea and it can make you chase lose if you are a gambler that finds it though to deal with emotions. At least 2% /3% is not a bad idea because that's the exact amount that can make you not to feel bad when you lose them. 10% is a huge amount of money that a responsible gambler should lose on bets actually.

Nobody gambles for fun. The majority of people gamble to get returns that are multiples of the amount they bet. However, some people can still live a relaxed life even though they have just lost a lot of money due to losing gambling, because they still have large savings from that. But others experience stress because that is the only money they have. His goal of gambling was to get more money, but it failed and did not match what he expected. People who gamble with large amounts of savings also expect the same, they also have a few mental disorders even though they can be controlled.

One can know a responsible gambler if he starts gambling.

When we say we gamble for fun, it doesn't actually mean that we also laugh at it when we make loss. Gambling for fun is just a way for us to remember that gambling is not supposed to be a source of income or a mean of making money but rather a means of losing it. So if one puts too much attention on it and too much money into gambling, he might end up losing so much than he expected. Gambling is fun when we make wins, we celebrate and return back to play ones more. When we loss, we walk away or if we still have some funds left, we try our luck again and maybe eventually get something right this time. All you need to be is responsible and know when to stop.
