Well, since we took the topic in a whole new direction, I will play the Devil’s advocate and just mention that there are some forms of gambling which are for entertainment and some which are for money.
For example, horse race betting and sports betting have nothing to do with entertainment – the entertainment will happen regardles if you place a wager or not, the race will take place, the game will be played and you will have fun watching it, but betting on it is just for money.
State lotteries are another example, maybe the worst, because they provide 0 entertainment, and are purely based on winning money.
There is nothing wrong with expecting to come out a winner while gambling in any form. But don’t quit your day-job.
