Losing money is no fun.  While gambling can be entertaining, the term "fun" shouldn't mask the inherent risk of financial loss.  Imagine the emotional turmoil of watching your money dwindle instead of enjoying the game.

The cycle of chasing losses is a fascinating point.  The hope of "winning back" what you've lost fuels further gambling, often leading to even greater financial depletion.  This highlights the psychological aspect of gambling and why it can be addictive for some.

The distinction between knowing when to stop and actually doing it is crucial.  Understanding your limits and sticking to them is essential for responsible gambling. The danger of using borrowed money to gamble is a valid concern.  Gambling should only be done with money you can comfortably afford to lose.  The potential for financial ruin makes using borrowed funds a recipe for disaster.
You're absolutely correct with your opinion and I can't just agree less mate.  Whenever I hear a lot of gamblers claim that they don't feel sad whenever they lose their money, I simply don't take them serious because we all know that 75% of the reason why people gamble is to make money out of it and no one will be happy seeing his money varnish in to thin air because of their losses in gambling.
There's nobody that'll be happy with losing their money and that's why I don't think there's any fun of whatsoever in losing your money to gambling. Gamblers only enjoy the game of gambling when they're winning money instead of losing money. I've lost my money in gambling on several occasions and there was never a time I felt any kind of fun in it
