For me, I gamble for fun and entertainment. Im not a fun of gambling aiming to win the big jackpot or make a potential profit.
It seems you tend to be a gamer than a gambler. I don't blame you with your own purpose in playing gambling since everyone has their own expectation. But I think only a few gamblers that playing for fun only and not expect to win. Most of them expect to win and get money by playing gambling. It is normal, they won't spend their time for fun only.
