What have you achieved through gambling?

[Wakate]

I once won like $3k in a slot games, the thing is that I'm down to my last money, but still continue and go and bet $10.00 a spin until I have a big multiplier and that winning is even bigger than their jackpot. And I immediately go and and it was a hand pay. I just play with small money after that, maybe around $200.00 and then just go home. First thing I do is to threat my family for a good and well deserving dinner with some close friends. And then when we go home, we had a few rounds of beer and just drink till the early morning. Basically just enjoying that money and have fun.

In my opinion i think it's better to spend  your wins on something you would enjoy instead of losing it all back to gambling, personally I would rather put that money won into investment or perhaps buying a new gadget that can help me do my activities easily without stress. Winning 3k in a slot game is quite huge most gamblers win such an amount and end up losing all of it.

I don't like the idea of winning bets on a casino and trying to use the money to gamble again after you have won. This can make a gamnr lose quickly due to another expectation he may be having that he is going to make another profit from gambling soon.
It is better to use the money you have won from gambling to do another thing that will be profitable for you instead of trying to use the money to gamble again which can lead to loses.

It cannot be said that we have been gambling over time and have nothing to show as an achievement from it, this is not all about monetary value alone, but also the joy and fun we make from gambling, which is the satisfaction most of us achieved without even notice because you think it comes naturally and we don't have to pressurize ourselves each time we are gambling to have fun.

I?m not sure if there?s even supposed to be a thing as gambling profits or profits from gambling. Every win from gambling no matter how big or small should be considered as nothing more but an prize for winning a game and not some kind of a profit, because the moment we begin to see it as a profit, we might potentially start to either use it to supplement our jobs or even think of replacing it and this as we know can have several consequences.

It's a win, you have to take it as such. Even the very word you use profit, in my opinion, is wrong. It makes it clear that gambling is a business for you. In reality, gambling is entertainment, it is a game, as the name itself suggests. Speaking in these terms makes me understand that you haven't understood much, I think.

You need to understand that anything can be gambling, even business, anything you put in money without the assurance of getting your money back is actually gambling, when you invest in a new business, with intentions of getting profit, even if it’s the profitability isn’t guaranteed, but you’ll have your strategy and maybe the knowledge you’ve acquired from doing research to give you somewhat of an assurance the it’s gonna work out just fine.

You have a point, whatever you put your money into like an investment or business there's surely risks involved because there are no guarantees of making profits out of it  but there's a bug difference between the risks of gambling and that of a business. Gamblers mostly take reckless risks but a business is always calculated and well thought out before the person makes a move, this increases the  chances of succeeding.

There is no risk-free field, there is risk in all fields but the type of risk taken is the real issue. Gambling is risky, business is risky, investment is risky. But all these are risky in their own way and their chances are also different. Where gambling depends entirely on luck, in business or investment we can make decisions based on our research and consideration, which increases our chances of success. But in this case, gambling does not have any additional chances, it depends entirely on luck, and this is the difference we should understand well. Risk will definitely be present in all fields, but understanding the main difference between them is the most important and when we understand these, we will be successful.

This is partially your opinion, and your perspective as well. And it is because you don't gamble to achieve materialistic things or for the sake of any tangible things. Gambling for emotional feelings is actually what gambling is meant for. But I think it gonna be very hard for some people (or gambler) to accept your perception, because they have their own perspectives and point of view. Nowadays a lot of people doesn’t gamble for the sake of their emotional feelings, but for their own selfish purpose. Gambling isn't just about donations believe some who gamble for the sake of making money or becoming rich is also one of the major reasons while some people gamble. But at the same time they are also people who don't considered that fact, and focus on their own emotional feelings and positive requirements.

Most gamblers don't count this as something at all bud, to them, it's either they win money from gambling or they actually did not achieve anything, this is why many even in this forum believe that gambling is a business and we all know who ever is running a business is doing so to make profit, in the absence of profit, some feel the business is absolutely useless.

If every gambler out there will start believing and treating gambling as a fun activity to the extent that when they gamble and don't win, it won't be a problem because they fun they had while gambling is something of value too, then we probably will have society that is free from gambling related problems, because the major cause of gambling issues is because gamblers are always more focused on making money than having fun.

Once you do able to win up something while you do gambling then it would be best that you should be that using up that amount to buy something and this is what you should be putting up into your mind rather than on losing it all once again into the house, but if you are that intendly to make use of that amount on that particular gambling session then it would be that up to you but as much as possible then it would be best that you should be that doing gambling for the sake of fun and entertainment and winning up some amounts is really just that a bonus. Never ever thought yourself having that trying out to achieve something from gambling because it would be just that making you that desperate and this is something that you do really need to avoid as much as you could. When you do play gambling then it should be that for the sake of fun and entertainment and never ever go beyond with those intent because this is where impulsive gambling starts and could be resulting into addiction and this is something that should be look into.

I don't like the idea either, this boils down to how the gambler views his wins. If he views it as more capital for gambling, then he continues with it until it finishes or he decides to stop which they rarely do, but if they view it as income, they'll withdraw it immediately from the casino. I don't allow my tangible gambling wins to get to my head that I'll be trying to multiply it more. When I win, I may consider withdrawing my wins to my account and ending my session

I agree with you, everything that depends on luck is like gambling, that is why when we do something completely ignorantly, if we have no idea about it, then it will also be a kind of gambling. That is why we should not go ahead with something that we have no idea about the possible outcome, rather we should go ahead where we see good prospects, and there is a chance to manage it effectively, then it will not be like gambling, only where we have nothing to do, completely ignorant and nothing is certain or probable, that is gambling, and whether it is business or investment.

This shouldn't be how a gambler view his winnings whether to leave it on the casino or withdraw the money. We know that depositing on a casino should not take time and withdrawing part of the funds if not all is better for a gamble so that he don't get deceived with the hope of making more money from gambling while trying again with money thay been won.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Almost every gambler has gone through that phase of recklessness but at some point you begin to see gambling for what it really is, it's a losing game. You can stake 50 dollars today and win 500 dollars but in a few days time you end up losing more than that amount and if that becomes the case it means that you never actually won. The most important is always to make sure you gamble responsibly.

I say that if someone manages to bet $50 and win $500, they should quickly withdraw it without hesitation. It's their luck; they should take that money and spend it, invest it, enjoy it, because that's how things are. Whoever doesn't do that and leaves it there in the casino will most likely lose everything because the temptations are very strong; they might get the urge to play and little by little they'll lose it.

[Crypto Library]

We have been hearing people talks about how much they had made or how much they have lost while gambling. I wanna know if you gamble and win, do you withdraw the money and use it for something more productive at home? Do you spend money on your family if you eventually wine?
There are people who barely withdraw their money from the gambling site, Instead they would say they want to accumulate it till it gets to what they wanted, but at some point they wouldn't know when the casino gradually takes back their winning from the user and before such person could realize is already late. If it was you what would you do?

To be honest, if I answer this directly, I have not been able to achieve a large amount from gambling yet. If I compare the achievements I have made with my loss amounts, then the amount of my losses will be higher.

But basically, what I think is that I don't think there is any major achievement from gambling other than entertainment. The main fact here is whether we are entertained by gambling or not. Yes, it is true that in the case of gambling, many people measure their achievement or success based on their winning amount, but I don't think that is how you can be a responsible gambler because that basically indicates that we are gambling to generate money, which is not what we should expect from gambling.

There is no achievement in the form of material, victory and money and also other things that are theorized to be very proud of an achievement, it's just that I feel happy when I gamble, that's enough for me, this is not an achievement that needs to be proud of actually, friend, even though it is very valuable for us because I see many people who cannot feel the pleasure of gambling even though they have many big wins and very big achievements from the amount of winnings they get, but after a few weeks after that he returned like us.

As I know many people would not be that able to maintain a successful and  healthy gambling practice because of the desire of what they should be gaining from gambling because they are not really catching the vibe and being entertained while gambling.
Of course we shouldn't be that too much expectant while gambling because, gambling is a game of fun and not a game of profits where we should be make a specific amount while gambling.

The actual win to many of us is the excitement, the entertainment, and the momentary escape of the everyday stress. Big payouts are excellent although they do not last long and the satisfaction disappears. Personally, the things I have learned about gambling are enhanced emotional control and knowledge of risk and discipline. I have learned that the pursuit of victories is not usually a healthy practice but it can be fulfilling to do it in a responsible manner. Ultimately, when gambling is enjoyable and contained, even that balance itself becomes a little bit but a significant accomplishment.

most of the time we can only show what we have won the moment we win it but since we often just lose it as quickly we really can’t literally show what we have won

when we win $1000, it’ll be gone before we even get to brag it to others but it’s a fun memory we’ll keep reliving

You are right , life itself is all about risk taking so to speak, many capitalized only on games as the only means of gambling. However investing your hard earned funds in a new business deal is also very risky and as such a gamble just as you have earlier stated above but it's more honoured and appreciated than gaming gambling (casinos etc) because business risk is likey calculated and have several chances of bringing something meaningful than gaming gambling that depend more on luck.

For those whose purpose is entertainment, gambling becomes a success when they get entertainment. There are many who want to spend their time in a different way and can feel a lot of pleasure by spending their time gambling. Especially for those who bet with a small amount of money for the purpose of entertainment, gambling is worthwhile when they get entertainment. However, there are many who say they bet for the purpose of entertainment but actually suffer a lot when they lose. In their case, by playing like this, they learn to control their mental instability and learn to control their emotions. As happened in my case.
