Gambling sites do not directly tell anyone that you are wasting time gambling on my site. But they arrange their gambling games in such a way that draws a gambler there again and again. Its name is addiction. If it is excessive then it takes a terrible form. So controlling yourself from gambling is a difficult task which is not possible for everyone. And he who can do this is the real hero and a smart guy
That is true on my part as well. I see this as entertainment, which means if I am bored and there is nothing to do then I can gamble, which means I would have a little bit of fun and I would limit my deposit so that I would not lose too much, would be willing to deposit as low as 10-20 dollars just so I wouldn't lose much, and just have fun.
But, if I have something to do, a new tv show to watch, a new book to read, a new movie to go see, friends to go meet, anything that I rather do, then I do not feel like gambling at all, it doesn't come to my mind and instead I do the other things. Gambling is basically a method to have fun when you have nothing else to do.
If you know how to control, then you are good to go, but again the factor of getting addicted is always possible, you can use this channel or this venue for your entertainment but make sure that you really know how to control yourself, it will save your butt from risking your finances, we read many stories about gambling addicted person who lose everything because of having excessive gambling in their system.
