Many users claim that they play for fun. At the same time, they do not hide the fact that all the money is lost one way or another, quickly or slowly. If you are losing money, then how can you enjoy it? I could never understand this. I would understand if a person said that now I am losing, but during the game I am learning and developing a strategy and a game system, and also testing this system during the game. In other words, you can play for research purposes and, losing money, enjoy the anticipation of future wins, since you have a promising strategy and a good consistent game system. But people generally do not play for research purposes. People just place bets more or less randomly, lose money and claim that they enjoy it. Is this stupidity or deceit? Maybe such people like the atmosphere of the game? But then why not play free games? But no, gamblers rarely play free games?
Why? The answer is paradoxical - because you can't lose money there, lol! And after that you say that gamblers are reasonable people.
Yes there are those who play for fun but mostly people get into gambling to get 2X,3x, or more of their money while enjoying the thrill but surely no one is happy loosing money but when you’ve made up your mind that this is a two way thing and the probability is more on losing it becomes easier to not feel anything.
There are some bets or gambling that depends on your level of skills and strategy, and they are really fun even if you lose cos you get to showcase and fine tune your skill sets, Games like poker, Chess, fantasy sports etc., there are those who gamble with playing PlayStation games, even the players who lose have fun with the games they play.
