So the bottom line is that I would just say that control and some boundaries would usually be able to be exercised by people who come without any expectation of winning, or the intention is not too serious and just for entertainment.

Of course yes, because people who come to gambling places see it as a form of seeking additional income, they will behave badly or be greedy in carrying it out because the aim is to get money, whereas if people come to the casino they see it and consider it as a form of entertainment activity for them when If he's bored, then most likely he won't feel too much risk there, because he only plays as needed and can limit the time and money he can bet there, and he will get happiness of course.

So this is the difference between the goals brought by the two gamblers who want something different, and also of course from here we can actually conclude a little about what impact will be experienced by them. For people who come just to fill their free time when for example they are off work then I think they will not bring too big expectations on a win, why not too big? because the fact is that everyone needs / wants money and that means if they get a win from the session they do even though the purpose is only for entertainment then it is possible if they cash it in and consider that it is a gift from the casino for their involvement and not a win which can certainly change their mindset and goals.

As for some people who come because they are interested in winning or to get a win, then the first point we can conclude is that they will not easily stop gambling, no matter whether the situation is winning or losing it cannot be used as a reference, because basically they come to win, so when they win they will be addicted and when they lose they are unable to accept reality and try to break even. From that we can already conclude about the impact that gamblers will experience from both different goals.
