Yes of course, gambling to earn a profit seems like the most logical reason to gamble right. Or perhaps we should just call it "losing" instead of gambling when you're going to the casino with a small amount with the full expectation of losing said amount in the end. Kind of funny. Maybe instead of just "losing" we call it "losing but sometimes winning" lmfao. I'm sorry i'm chalk full of the dad jokes today its just obscene. Anyways, I think the best part about going to the casino is the atmosphere & when you go with a fun group that is what makes it a good time.
I doubt that losing can be fun, but if you initially set for yourself the amount that you are ready to lose in the casino, then it should not be too upsetting. It can be perceived as a trip to a restaurant, when you know that you are ready to spend money on a good evening and will consider it an acceptable expense. So everything will depend on your perception and the framework of reason, when you spend no more than you initially decided.
