Maybe we can say that playing gambling is just for fun or entertainment, but as time goes, our reason for playing gambling can change.
Very true, along the way this perceptions change up, we see ourselves playing more and trying different strategy but not to enjoy but to win real money.
And once we see that we can win for some time, we will try to use gambling to make money. We will use more money to make money but the fact is we never make that money instead, we just lose more money.
The taste of winning decent amount of money pushed us to continue and try to chase more, the problem after that is we will deposit more than what we previously allocate for this activities.
Gambling is a way to get fun, whether we play alone or with friends so we need to have control in gambling. Otherwise, we will lose too much money without we realize.
Afterwards, you'll find yourself regretting because of losing so much fund due to uncareful gambling activities.
