Some people among us are no getting what the meaning is. This is an example:

We have said it several times without number on this gambling board that gambling is not for making money. Gambling should only be for fun.

LOLz
I was an advocate of this (gambling solely for fun and nothing else) but honestly, I've changed my mind, it is wrong to believe that people will spend all of their hard earned money on gambling just for them to have fun, very wrong believe if you ask me.
There are several games people can play for free for fun's sake, there are video games that are way more interesting and fun to play than any slot or casino game, there are also some really good betting games that are far more intriguing to play than sports betting, what exactly do you think make slot games, Casino games, and even sports betting so interesting that people would want to spend their money on it just to have fun? As far as I know, non of this games are as interesting as playing a good video game on my laptop or mobile phone for free.

To believe that gambling should be done purely for fun is dilusional(sorry to say), I once posted a poll on this board where I asked gamblers on this forum that, if the possibility of making money through gambling is completely removed, and they have to keep spending their money to gamble, but will never win a dime because it's completely for fun, will they keep gambling?, the 100 percent who those who answered the pool said no, that they would stop gambling, for what is the essence of gambling if they can't win money.

It is not gambling for fun only. That is not complete. It is gambling for fun and not seeing gambling as a way of making money
It is what we want newbie gamblers to read to remember if they lose huge amount and know they should only gamble to have fun and not a way of making money
It means huge amount should not be used to gamble
It means using gambling to make money is irresponsible gambling habit for the rich not to become poor
It also means gambling should not be taking your time that supposed to be used for important things
It means people should not be addicted to gambling
It means gambling can be good but if gambling responsibly
It means if gambling is taking money from you than expected, quit gambling as you are not gambling for fun and the later outcome can be bad.

You can by beer to have fun and not seeing it as a waste of money. You can give a friend little amount of money in a way he may want to give you back but you will not collect it as you see it as small amount, telling him it is a small amount of money. Only such money like that, that are small in amount set aside should only be used for gambling. That is the meaning. The fun you see there does not necessary mean fun. Just like an ideom.

There is no way one can gamble for fun and don't have small intentions of gambling for money. It's hard but when we control the love of money we have we can manage to control the habit of gambling for money. One of the way we can control the habit of gambling for money is even when we lose we won't get angry because we lose. All bettors are not the same because everything there are people who's involving extra mindset on it. Like gambling I don't like gambling for fun because I don't see any reason losing my money, I can't remember when last I gamble for fun. However I am not against gambling for fun because gambling for profit making it is not a good way of making money as it's not a part time or full time job for anyone.
