Why do we gamble?

[Moreno233]

Most people are not being honest with their response, they might say that they gamble for fun but at the end of the day they stake huge amounts of money, this isn't what someone that gambles for fun would do. A lot of people chase profits aand gamble irresponsibly but still claim to gamble for entertainment. Some people gamble the wrong way and still think that they are having fun when it's actually causing harm.

This is true because I have seen people who claim to gamble for fun yet when they lose the slide into depression, how can depression be the ending of catching fun? I know that people can gamble for the fun of it and these are people who are rich and financially comfortable so their gambling is mainly for fun. It will surprise you to know that most of the people that gamble for fun find the demo version that is in casino boring. That would have been a good place to play for fun but they will not do it because money is not involved.

But if that is the case why do we usually complain most times when we lose or why the persistent chasing of lost or try to get back our lost each time we lose in our gaming streak , perhaps is it that some of us aren't sincere to our self when we usually say we only gamble for the fun? Or is it more in mind that we aren't saying out?

As long as money is involved and that there is a chance that you can win big through gambling or loose everything you have put into gambling, players are bound to get emotional while playing and that is going to affect the way they go about gambling. of the many reason why people gamble is the major one which is often looked at and that is because others are doing it. there are people that got started in gambling not because they saw themselves winning anything that is all too big. they only got started in gambling because everyone around them is into it and them doing it seems like the best thing to do.

every gambler gambles for fun, pleasure, the possibility of wining a set amount, the influence other gambler has on them and based on the fact that they have looked at news on the media and feels like it is easy wining jackpot just like it is being projected on the media.

Gambling is fun for most people,for me I don't gamble for fun but for money. I  gamble with money I can afford to lose because  the chances of winning is 50/50 so I don't gamble recklessly. People who take gambling as their main hustle and depend on it survival are not gambling for fun anymore. There are people who can't saved money as a result of gambling,they can't saved or planned for their future because they have become too attached to it. Everyone gamble for personal reasons but they must gamble responsibly.

Just like the title say, why do we gamble? This is a crucial question that if it's been asked everyone will likely say they gamble to have fun and to be well entertained maybe at their free or bored time.

But if that is the case why do we usually complain most times when we lose or why the persistent chasing of lost or try to get back our lost each time we lose in our gaming streak , perhaps is it that some of us aren't sincere to our self when we usually say we only gamble for the fun? Or is it more in mind that we aren't saying out?

I don't really care about the reasons why I gamble. I enjoy it, purely for fun. Of course, it goes without saying that I also gamble to win and make money. All gamblers want to win, and that is naturally the goal with the money at stake. As for each gambler's reasons, I suppose it's not that important. If you don't enjoy gambling, then just stop.

Everybody has got a reason for which they started gambling, not Everybody does gamble for fun, some gamble to make money, like they literally make it a source of income, I had seen a lady one time who resigned from her job to gamble, she said according to her, she makes more from gambling  and if she dedicates the time into gambling, she believes  she will do even much more than she has been doing already. So not everyone gamble  for fun, a vast majority gamble because  they believe they can make money gambling and that will make them react the way they do when the loose bets.

Gambling is inherent in us; it's part of our character. We may ignore or deny it, but it's always been part of our actions, consciously or unconsciously.

We manifest those traits and character on the gambling platform; even if we deny it, we are gambling for profit. It's later on, after we mature as gamblers, that we come to realize we should gamble for fun and entertainment, and only think of profit when there is an opportunity to do so.

We cannot take gambling on ourselves; we can only control it and use it to entertain ourselves. We have to take the positive side of gambling, so we do not become addicted to it

My answer is "it's a choice" everyone's life has financial freedom, they are free to determine their own path in life, Gambling for me is an activity that can benefit me financially, regardless of whether it contains elements of fun or entertainment and so on.

In essence, gambling is my choice in carrying out challenging activities, especially in the act of gaming, there are many types of games that are challenging for me to try, gambling has that right.
For example: Roulette games, slots, sports and so on, that's why I want to gamble.

People can't admit the fact that the reason why they gamble is because they want to be a one time big time or a millionaire just by winning, but seldom or that one in many who gamble the chance are slim but because they want it badly they sometimes lost, while other people are lucky, it does not mean they are always winning there are times they were broke, we don't see it because they just show the good side.
People will chase money this is why they gamble, there is no denying that is the reason to be rich.

You can do something you like or you enjoy but still complain about it. I think it's normal. In gambling, you can say that you gamble for entertainment and you enjoy it. Since you get too entertained with gambling, you get too emotional with it as well. So you react depending on the result. When you lose, it's just normal to complain and feel bad about losing. And when you win, you get excited and happy.

It's just like doing the sport you love. You also get frustrated when you don't play well or when you lose. But losing doesn't make you want to stop playing the sport you enjoy. So when you lose in gambling, you don't just stop playing immediately.

Why do we watch a sport? And why do we get pumped up or feel sad when the team we are supporting won or lost?

Why do we watch movies? And why do we get sad when the movie has sad endings?

That is what entertainment, it plays with the emotions and we will get hooked up and it is fine but one who knows how to take control over the emotions will get caught up and lose more than what they are suposed to do.

[JunaidAzizi]

That's a very important question, and the answer is subjective, as everyone has their own perspective. As for me, those who are doing it for entertainment, and when they lose, they start chasing and complaining, have actually fixed their happiness and enjoyment to winning. It's a psychological fact that people see their happiness in gaining things. So, in that case, they were doing it for entertainment but related it to winning. Maybe a loss does not affect them financially, but going their bets in the opposite direction can make them sad and tend to chase to get that happiness again.

Individuals claim to gamble to have fun yet in actual sense, it is usually a combination of entertainment, hope and the urge to get money. When it comes to actual money, then emotions set in. It is good to win but when you lose, you become frustrated and want to win back as soon as possible hence chasing. The practice reveals that it is not always to have fun anymore. There are those who consider gambling as a source of income which is not good since results cannot be predicted. Most players do not stop playing because they are having fun but because they have the dream of making money.

Not everyone is completely honest about the reason they gamble, when a question like this is being asked especially on the forum you see a lot of feedbacks like I only gamble for fun or to entertain myself but when they start losing money they get desperate to recover. There is nothing wrong in gambling for profit as long as you are able to keep it responsible and moderate there's nothing wrong.

We gamble to win!!! Someone doesn't play a slot or place a sports bet in hopes of losing, they're chasing the thrill of victory.

The ultimate goal is to have fun, but we are always hoping to win too.

I gamble for fun and mostly when am in a position of boredom and trying not to say much more than necessary. It helps me actually focus my mind for a few moment, hence averting wondering thoughts. Since I hate losing much, I try to be intentional to my best ability and thus love to examine my history bets and briefly check betting analysis on some sites occasionally.

[Bluedrem]

I would say that people gamble with the hope of winning money. Yes, many people may say that they gamble for fun, but if they really gamble for fun, why do they complain after losing when they know that there is a risk of losing money in gambling? Why would people knowingly want to lose their money? Of course, they gamble their hard-earned money to win money. I think if there was no possibility of winning money in gambling, there would be half the number of gamblers that there are today. So I don't believe that people gamble just for fun. I always say that people gamble with the intention of winning money.

I believe this question requires a direct answer and thus we need to be plain with our response because most of us that gambles usually shy away from the main reasons we gamble and mind you no one has ever done something without expecting a return of what they must've invested. So for me I gamble because i ought to win and enjoy the fun it brings.

[hyudien]

A simple question but very important, because I myself am still not sure whether I gamble for fun or for winning, because sometimes at some point I can be very disappointed with the results of a bet or loss in one slot game, and then chase that loss, but also I can close the account when I lose, as if nothing happened and comforted or accepted for the loss, but for me, this is natural after all gambling plays psychology, where we cannot always gamble / bet continue in a responsible state.

A lot of people chase profits aand gamble irresponsibly but still claim to gamble for entertainment. Some people gamble the wrong way and still think that they are having fun when it's actually causing harm.

While lie to the public that you gamble for fun when you gamble for something else what’s the aim of such type of gambler when where you are dropping your response is where real identity is not attached, many of them might start of gambling only for fun but end up chasing profit when they have enjoyed the taste of winning, some of them start playing only for the profit, but we shouldn’t judge the people who gamble with big money to be going for profit as what I consider to be big won’t be an amount you consider big everything depends on the persons worth.

It is common to hear gamblers complain of not winning. This doesn't mean that they are feeling too much pain. The complain doesnt mean that they cannot bear the losses, its just to show their disassatisfaction at that moment. What I am saying is that even gamblers who do it for fun might still complain because every gambbler's goal is to win.
