"Sometimes winning isnt good at all". This is the phrase i always got in my mind whenever i saw someone or read something that pertains to gambling addiction. I see that people are so greedy and do anything to win. My observation is that, people experience winning ofcourse in gambling so they take many chances and risk bets to win again. Either the win rate is just 2 to 3 times per 15 bets, they are still getting hooked on it. Winning even once triggers addiction because people are greedy in nature. There are just people who can control themselves and there are not.

Maybe the winnings that people have experienced is not enough to cover what they have lost in the past. It may not always be the case but that's just what they feel, that's what I think. Addicted people tend to forget what they need to do and keeps on insisting themselves that they could still do it, no matter the consequences. They cannot control themselves because they are already addicted, countermeasures with that would really be hard for those kinds of people. What they need is people backing them up and helping them recover.

For the win rate, it just depends on the chance that you are playing. For example, a 95% win rate would give more strong win rates compared to 70%. I guess having a few bets would suffice the normal/average person, whether the person wins or not.

Emotion or lack of control of it . They just keeping playing at expensed of their financial health & well being

Exactly, most of the gamblers I know can't control their emotions. I see them still going even though they have lost so much money and thinking that they can recoup everything and then go back to normal life. But it's not the case and they turn out to be a compulsive gambler even if they know the negative consequences it can bring not just for themselves but for their love ones as well, they continue to gamble until it's too late.

Some people can't control themselves. Here in the world need to have a self discipline to avoid addiction, Some people gambling they treat as source of income but not advisable because gambling is not a job that's the reason become gambler addicted.

I think much reason could trigger someone to become a gambling addiction and in my opinion, besides the emotion, winning can also attract them to get deeper in a gambling game. You know that if someone wins money, the greediness will come and says to him to keep playing but suddenly, he loses the money. The greediness will say ah, it's okay to lose money this time because we still have more chance to win, so he continues to play, and yes, he wins the game again and again, and he quit because he can control himself. But if he keeps coming to the gambling place in every day and plays the same game, soon or later he cannot control himself, and it's beginning of the gambling addiction will start and the rest of the story, we already know.

I was a chain smoker when I used to live alone. All day I used to work on my laptop and used to smoke one after another rollies. I did not have much social life.

People need entertainment. They need something to keep themselves busy. When they don't have enough then they find something and smoking, gambling are few of these bad habits.

Think about this:
- You don't need to talk to anyone when you smoke
- You don't need to talk to anyone when you are gambling

You are on your own.

So, my conclusion is that winning is not just the cause, people needs to socialise, people get into gambling because they don't have anything else to entertain them.  

I agree
Winning is so good, even very small amounts. And then we think"ah, I should have put more money to make more".

And we just go searching for that "Winning felling" again and again .. dangerous

They actually did a interesting study on this a few years ago.

You are more likely to get addicted to gambling when you realize a big win early in your gambling days. This is what generally gives you false hope and you always think you can win again and you become addicted.

Most think that getting addicted is when you get a big win, however its not always the case. Some with big wins usually suffered many loses in their early gambling days that they just take their winnings and quit. However for those that were winners early in their career they usually bet more later on to "break-even" and suffer huge losses which leads to addiction.

I think its more on the money side that triggers the gambler to be addict on that, though its a nature in every human to be addict on something. Its just like people who are addict on Dota, ML, other online games or in any KPOP group, the only difference is the money involve. Winning creates more excitement and that is why gambler continue to play after winning good money.

This can be a good reason, because controlling yourself to stop playing is very hard and if you have weak emotion you will lose money and that makes a lot of gambler broke for a moment.

Yup! That can be considered one of the factors why others lead to gambling addiction. The same scenario can be applied to computer addiction to, youth nowadays are getting more exposed to the advanced technology (PS4, Xbox, NintendoSwitch etc) and they are now more willing to engage in digiral world instead of socializing with their fellow children. On the other side, some gamblers became obsessed to gambling because they're body always look for the hype, thrill and excitement that they cannot found in other forms of entertainment, just only in casinos or online betting sites in some cases.

That's the sad reality for the people who have whatever form of addiction — they're hooked in up to the point that even themselves can't now find the way going back.

Do you have that study by any chance? I'm interested in checking what the objectives and significance of the study are because I might get something there, for research. I think people who are addicted just need to know what to do when gambling, like having a plan or usually acceptance is a great thing.

Anyway, having false hope is just lying to your face. I just thought of hope, is hope always false until it comes true?

You have already answered the question in the thread. There is only one thing that triggers gambling addiction is "Greed". There is nothing else that can justify the addiction to gambling. If a person tests winning at least once, it triggers more greed into his mind and he/she tries to test that winning again without thinking about the losses he/she is making.

At the first instance, gambling should be taken as an way of entertainment and nothing else. If someone is taking it as a method of money making, he is getting it all wrong from the beginning itself.

From my personal experience, I feel more addicted to gambling when I keep losing my bets. The combination of losing your money and you want to get them back, along with the chance of making a profit and grow your fund make you addicted to Gambling.
Expectations trigger Addiction. And also no one can deny the fact that people feel entertained when they gamble. I am not an expert but maybe some hormones like Adrenaline are strongly correlated and trigger addictions such as gambling.

Were on the same boat mate as that what also triggers my addiction  .  when i loose i feel angry and i bet again higher than the previous one but when i won  sometimes i dont feel contented and that can result for me to do continue playing  .   there were also times that i get addicted playing because i enjoy the game and i dont mind if i won or loose because what important for me is the enterntainment  . 

So that it   .  my addiction is depends on the game and on my mood   

Psychology tells us that there are two kinds of addiction. One is called substance/chemical addiction which is addiction to nicotine, alcohol, drugs, sugar-dense foods and beverages etc. Another is process addiction, which is also called behavioral addiction, which is a form of addiction that involves a compulsion to engage in a rewarding behavior like gambling, watching porn, playing video games, shopping etc. Chemical addiction is hard to overcome because when you stop taking a substance which alters your metabolism in a pleasurable way, you start feeling severe symptoms of withdrawal, literally physically. Behavioral addiction is a psychological one, which can be discontinued without any withdrawal symptoms, and since gambling is classified as such, I don't buy the notion that there are people who "just can't control themselves" regarding gambling. Yes, psychological addiction can be hard to overcome too, but it's pretty much possible, and there are no excuses for those who are not even trying.

This kind of situation boost our emotions, and as the excitement increase expect the level of your game will increase too unti you become more greedy. Gambling addiction is very common for those who gamble everyday, either you make big profit or you lose, as long as you are playing everyday for me you’re already an addict gambler.

Have you ever heard about beginner's luck ? That must be a actual trigger for gambling addictions. Uncontrolled gamblers end up in addictions when they believe into repeating their luck moments. Lack of self control and mot aware of dangers of gambling are other supportive factors which are leading to addictions.

What about the gamblers who are losing ? They are also having equal chances to get addicted. It means winning or losing will not influence your addictions but these are the reasons why gamblers are sticking with gambling. A winner wants to give it another try whereas a loser wants to recover his bet money. Both lose control on their emotions and becoming greedy or aggressive with respective cases and then sticking with gambling and finally getting suffered by addictions.

It is really funny when I think about the bets and wages that I've made has more loss in it than the wins and I am still hooked on gambling, well it is better than being addicted like me in the past when I can't really control myself. It is not only greediness but the pleasure of winning is also great.

No one can predict who will develop an addiction to gambling and it can happen to anyone, And right now that we had internet gamblings are just one click away I really think that many in this generations are triggered this way with online gambling we can easily determine their cause, And if someone has gambling addiction we know that it is not an easy task to recover from it, It needs a one day at the time to help them recover, It is notoriously hard to subdue and control.

A key ingredient of gambling addiction is emotion, This way gamblers tend to make it as a coping mechanism to escape from their discomfort or problem,

That's chasing and this is very dangerous. You always keep thinking that you gonna win the next bet and that will recover your lose but in reality it happens very rare.


When you keep losing then it becomes stress. It's no more entertainment.

Most likely the people who do able to feel this way are those people who just recently start up on gambling.Depending on what kind of person you are if you are greedy too much or just only slight depending on chances. Winning can really trigger addiction but if you are sensible enough then it wont really easily penetrate you.So this issue would always vary with strong self control. If you cant handle such thrill then better to stop before anything would gets worst.

Playing like this sometimes, and it makes me more addict when I tried to be more happy and have fun. Gambling is a good source of happiness if you treat it correctly, but if there’s big money on the table I think its more of a greed and not the entertainment anymore. But losing money triggers gambler to do everything to get that money back, but still they ended up broke.

Sometimes the triggering effect of gambling addiction is what the person's been going through in his life. Some may have a difficult time that pushes them to starts to gamble to have fun. Same goes when someone is an alcoholic too, and you see when someone wins, they know how it feels that's why it starts to make an effect on their body and medical practitioner called it a dopamine hormone.

Though addiction can be distinguished if that person keeps coming back to what he has been doing in the past.

The basics and most common:

Expected Profits that will lead into Desired to Win.

Desired to win that will lead into Winning Experience.

Winning experienced that will lead into much more targets.

And lastly that targets and goals will now lead gambling to take over a gambler's emotion.

And from Emotions, it's now up to people to control it or become being controlled.

Yes thats the other side, but there are people, including me that are most addict when we win. According to my analysis, if people doesnt win in a game, they easily get bored and will turn to other things which can be useful to them. But if people win and then lose and then win and then lose again, they will have this hope of winning like the one they experience and this is why they become addict.

Perfectly correct ideas cause of trigger gambling addiction
The most common trigger gambling addiction is emition and traget goal to get quick earning
Gambler didn't control them self the frustration get win

The trigger is to have money and an invitation from friends to bet, it could be people who are initially just trying but with the pleasure obtained at the beginning will trigger them to continue gambling without realizing they have lost a lot, and then they will continue gambling to win or just want to have fun. I think there are many factors and the main possibilities are environmental factors and the need to get money quickly even though it seems impossible but for those who already know gambling, then they will gambling.

Overall, the thing is that its greed. For everything that happens, if you want easy money, it would also become easy to go. I doubt that people who gamble think about pleasure but the thought of just having the money or playing for money is already a cause enough for a trigger to happen. Having that jolt of feeling, that happiness. I think that's what they crave. They probably focus on the wrong stuff like on their wins only, not on their losses.

I have searched  books (https://www.amazon.com/Gambling-Addiction-Recovery-Book-Overcoming/dp/1540409686) that could possibly be helpful to everyone who is experiencing gambling addiction.

Could be one factor as well, - environment. If you see friends or families playing then I'm sure that at one point in your life you will be tempted and then you are hooked and can't give up your gambling addiction. Environment plays a big factor not just in gambling but on all facets of life. So it's very difficult to get out, and even if you have plans to exit but the people around you are encouraging you to play again and again, it's nearly impossible to quit.

I know that there are a lot of time that a gambler gamble after their loses and that is normal.

Even though this is normal, I don't think we should do this since that is wrong. Also, recovering the loses a gambler made can be recovered and it is not that rare since there are a lot of gamblers that did that in the past even in these days. Chasing our losses in gambling can make us more addicted to gambling since the more we lose on gambling, the more we gamble.

I guess it's the lack of discipline and inability to control their emotion.
When you are in control of your emotion all the time, you won't be making a decision that is not on your game plan.
Gambling should be played with strategy and we should be enjoying it, regardless of the outcome as it is created to give us entertainment.

They are tempting from other people story that they can win easily in gambling, so they try more and more to play, but they cannot win and that makes them frustrated. Having a strategy is a good solution, but still, people need the luck to win especially in the game base with luck. Perhaps, they can try with sports betting so they can make a good strategy in the match and I think their chance to win will bigger than the games with base in luck.

I'll never get tired of winning.

In my case it's different, I'll never consider anymore to do anything just to win. If I win, then that's it and if I lose I'll gladly accept that its not my day.

besides, greed is also a major cause because most gamblers if they have won the game and have confidence because they already know the strategy of the game they will never be satisfied and always want to get a bigger victory

Winning more money makes gambler more greedy, personally it happened to me when I tried to gamble and since I believe that it was my lucky day, i tried to continue playing and after winning for so many times, that money was gone easily and my happiness turns into sadness. Being greed sometimes is not good, we have to control that emotion in order for us to survive in the long run and make a good money that come’s from hard work.

Oh thats bad knowing that you already won alot of cash  but nothing to be blame here aside from your self because you are not contented on what you already achieve  .  if im on your position i know that i can control myself easily and i should have enjoy my winnings  but unfortunately its you  .   anyways youd better try your luck again next time , gudluck  .

There is no known reason on why addiction can trigger .  it just pops up unexpectedly depending on the situation  or on the environment  . 

You cant actually say such thing since you are not on the situation and you might possibly have the difficulty on such decisions.If you do able to control yourself then good but if not then you would still end the same thing.
Winning can trigger addictions if you do tend to be greedy for money when you are gaining profits.Stopping is the hardest part of these kind of times.

Well not.all could do.it but there will be few who can basing on the experience from the loses the learning that an individual will going to have after gambling addiction will definitely help to overcome or control gambling addiction. I have been to it and experiencing pain in those times that even love ones were being drag to the problems that I have been to and to which I was able to learn from it. Betting would be great but put the family or love ones first as a priority. There is no more painful watching them feeling pain because of your wrong doings.

Right.Gambling addiction will not only ruin the life of the gambler itself,but even with the family members.They are also affected with it.I think the greediness of one's person will always bring him into such addiction either in gambling or even in drugs.Those people who were addicted have lost their sense of thinking that they can't control their emotions anymore and will resort into making wrong doings or even committed crimes.

Addiction is the result of people's condition on theor life style,when someone have enough money and knows how to earn more money with it then they are not going to get addicted for gambling but when someone looking for easy money they will come to play for money and ends up addicted to it.

IMO, it's affect by environment and religion because both of this are fundamental with people's attitude.
We are already know that gambling will make you loss eventually but they already adult and aware of their action that it has the risk.
Personally, I'm not addicted to gamble although I'm ever win in massive amount !

There is no need one should goes into gambling if you don't want to win.  Winning is good for gamblers and in betting if you are not winning you will soon be bankruptcy!  To me greedy is the major cause of gambling addiction.  If you win and reduce your risk you will ever be in gambling but if you win and increase your risk you will soon be out of business.

It is the same thing that triggers other addiction, greed. You want to achieve more and more never satisfied with what you already have or reach now. Even when you already won a lot of money, you will still feel you need to win over other people. It's not always about the money though, sometimes we found a game that actually has no end, but we felt like we need to find the ending, we need to finish the game. And honestly, I have been in that stage.

You got a point but i dont think life style affects addiction that much. There are numerous rich people that even though they have all the money, they become bankrupt. Why? Because they do nlt have control, and the saddest part, they are used to high bets and rich people have boastfulness in them that they will bet high even they dont have any. Peer pressure is also deadly.

Remember that when they know how to earn that money then they will not get addicted the millionaires with the intention of making more millions are going to play like this and get bankrupt.

I think the way of getting more money will attract lots of people and get addicted to gamble when the price was very high we can definitely entered into field so gambling will not give lots of profit for additive but why we are not getting profit and also we are getting addicted to it

But there's also millionaires who knows how to play well, remember that fixed match are being practice by those rich businessman who loves to add more money to their assets, though there's really chances that even rich people can be addicted and become bankrupt after engaging too much from this activity, as they forget about limiting their bankroll and being aggressive to keep playing.

So, do you mean millionaire gamblers are existing and they are managing themselves profitable ? Then why not most of gambling houses have not bankrupted yet ? Please do not believe into myths. There could not be any exception from "house always wins". If a millionaire gambler is successful in sports betting than definitely he will try other gambling too but I'm sure definitely they could not find success there.

Basically greed is the reason for rich people and chasing the losses is the reason for rest of people. Once a gambler is disturbed emotionally then no one could stop them from gambling. When they are continuously into gambling, they will get addicted after that there will be no reason is needed for them to continue.

That's exactly what happens to 90% of people. The smart ones stop as soon as they win, they try only once and if they win they just stop and get away for the money. Unfortunately, most of the people want more and more money and they lose it all. That's why I don't try going on for the big win, I just sometimes do it for fun.

The easy money making they will not happen for any time but it will happen only in the cryptocurrency gambling that's why people will interest to gamble using their investment and it sometimes useful but it will not be give the profit in many time.

The biggest part of people are governed by the greed for getting more money, it entails more spending, there are exceptions that understand gambling and know how to earn and stay in profit. Gambling addiction is a serious illness, I would put it in a rank with alcoholism, maybe more smart people knowing how to gamble maybe there would be no gambling because they would take the money, and there is no purpose for those who hold the casino. But as you gamble moderately and consciously with little money at your own risk, you have no problems then. If you become a drug addict, try to reduce gambling.

The main trigger for addiction in gambling is emotional control that is not good. everyone who cannot control an emotional condition will be affected by addiction. It should be noted that when a person experiences addiction, they will find it difficult to get out of such conditions. keep control of the emotions we have and we will be able to have fun playing gambling. this is a choice that is when we want to be able to go through a situation like this well then we must be able to connect between patience and emotional control.

gambling hypnotizes us like its trying to tempt us into betting, betting and gambling are way much easier but harder to win but still it keeps us from betting until theres nothing left in us. Thats the power of gambling. Just like liquor, gamble moderately

The simple answer that came to my head about what triggers gambling addiction is because of the win money, nothing else. We are dazzle of the winning money that we see on the homepage of the gambling sites, and we want to try our luck in one or two games. It makes us play one or a few times, but the result is we are losing in all round and makes us wants to come in the other days. Soon, if we still come to play over and over, it will trigger us to become addicting to gambling.

A lot of factors are there which may trigger gambling addition. A few which  i feel are

a) Greediness to become rich
b) Financial condition and no other way to get money
c) Loss in gambling which addicts to come back and cover the loss

These are just to name a few. Every person has different reason to become attracted and addicted to gambling.

Yes, gamble moderately is not as easy as we thought because of the spirit behind it. When one places a bet and lose he/she will like to play again just to make sure he/she wins the lost back this time, this will make such individual continue to place the bet until he/she finally loose all before think of quit. The only thing that triggers gambling addiction is "MUST WIN"

Win is one of the most dangerous element that can trigger gambling addiction quick and fast. I went into gambling many years ago because of my win back then, this keep on growing in me till i became a full time gambler with serial loses and wins. To get a friend addict to gambling(Games) you must allow a win from such a friend to keep them on track before a hit.

Greedy is the one kind of prevention of winning. On the other hand sometime winning is the reason of greedy. Winning and greedy both are related each others. I have realized that during trading since I am not much involved with gamble. Once people's win 10$ by betting then he become greedy for win 20$. That's the way how we become greedy. Because we are not satisfied with small win. In a result we loss more and more. But if we think that small earning better than loss then I think its possible to gain. But its bit difficult since we are human.

Thats the mysterious thing on gambling why many people got to become addicted,i dont know why is this happening that every person whos new in gambling comes to win first then after several winnings then the nightmare will come because it looks like the gambling will suddenly claim the money you have won and then continuously get all your money while you are starting to become addicted.this makes me think that gambling is a gift of demon for us people and if you are weak then you will turn as victim

Yes, there are times when we win in gambling, whether it's big or small. And this can lead to a conviction that if we bet with a relatively large amount of money, we can get quite a lot of profits. From there, an obsession to get money easily without having to work hard is getting embedded.

It is in our nature to be greedy. We always try to search and acquire more. This is what casinos take advantage of and be profitable. I was in the stage of being greedy but this didn't make me good because I was gambling more and I was trying to make more money but unluckily I didn't. This triggered my addiction and I think that this happens in the majority of people that are involved in gambling.

Chasing back the lost amount from gambling is one of the main reason for people getting addicted to it than any other reason.The people will be getting much tempted to play when they have the thought about gambling as a way to make easy money they will start to play,sometime they get beginners luck and can earn at few bets if they are not going to get away with that their life going to be in trouble when they want that easy money forever.

Different reasons could trigger gambling addiction, from my own perspective; The euphoria one gets after the first wins and the enthusiasm to keep chasing winning in gambling could trigger addiction, also addiction could be as a result of chasing previous losses in gambling. Those are the 2 factors I consider could easily lead to gambling addiction.

For a new person who comes first time in gambling, he can only be addicted if he won his first few bets and games and earn quick money. But let suppose anyone new to gamble and lost a high amount of money in his first few games ,will actually hate gambling and may not return to it.

It is the money that matters and which triggers any normal human begins as well to chase more and more money as people become greedy. SO in start what seems to be a happy as some of the money is being made but when people slowly start getting addicted to it lose also start taking place.

The moment you continue playing, your life is already in trouble. Chasing back your loses is the reason why gambler are losing big money because they don’t understand the effect of that. This triggers addiction and also it makes people too dependent on gamgling until they become addict gambler.

People and Society will be the main reason for getting into gambling once we are getting into gambling it will be addicted to you so I think that two things will be the most important things for triggering a person to get addicted for gambling that's all.

I agree that winning is not good at all. Although it is good to satisfy ourselves but being in too much creates disaster that whenever you experience losses, you are striving real hard to pay back regaining what you have loss even if it cost a lot. That is why whenever you want to play gamble as well as another games, better keep in mind that win and loss is just normally a part of the game and accept no matter what the result is and be contented to further control yourself not to get addicted on it. Which I totally apply to myself whenever I play into an  online casino (https://to.crwd.cr/smtm) that I am playing just to be entertained with the variety of games they have and enjoy the bonus they offer after I have done doing my first deposit on it.

I would have to agree. It's the rush of winning that drives those who are addicted to "risk it all" for the big pay day. They see the one big win, don't run with the money, and instead "double down" for the next "big win" attempt. It's not healthy, but what are you going to do? People will continue to find vices everywhere with everything. What I don't understand are those that gamble with thousands of dollars per play. It just seems uneconomical. I mean, if you have 100k btc then what's a few here or there, but for the every day gambler, man oh man it's a sad sad song to see your hard earned money go down the drain. That's the absolute worst feeling in gambling. That may even drive them to gamble harder to try and "win it all back".

Well for me it is always the money,thrill and fun.
Most of us are addicted to gambling because of these reasons.
Or maybe they are addicted to gambling because it is their only way to escape reality.

It should be the money, the big amount of money that they can win.
Gambling is a cool job because it could change your life anytime, provided you are lucky, however if a gambler
is not that realistic on knowing the risk, that will result to addiction and this addiction is hard to cure, it will get into your system
and will surely gonna ruin everything you have, money friends, and family.

If people are mature enough to think wisely they would realize that if everyone thinks like this and think that they will win it then how will casinos make money. So one should be very rationale in making decisions and should either have extra money so that even if they lose they should be fine with it. Else they would not realize that slow they might move towards addictions.

Winning always makes no sense at all because an individual that have never experience defeat will always seek for win that is why he will do everything for a payback just to regain from a loss he have suffered which can somehow be a good attitude but not always because we must know how to accept all the results especially when we are playing that win and loss is really a part of it. We must stay in control of ourselves not to fall with the game itself to avoid getting caugh into the trap of addiction. I got interested into that bonus you were saying just for doing my first deposit.

This. This is the core reason why people are getting addicted to gambling. If you gamble like you watch a movie, you will never get addicted but if you adopt gambling as your career then you will definitely end up with gambling addictions. Gambling is never a job nor a money making way. It is a way to spend money and to gain some entertainment to pass our time in more relaxing way. Gambling is for our mind and for bursting the stress. If you think gambling as a money resources then it will trigger the addiction instantly also.

People who are all taking gambling serious for any reason might get addicted. These are few obvious reasons which make people to consider gambling as a serious one : chasing losses, willing to repeat profit moments or taking revenge for losses or getting so excited on enjoying profits. In short, all are moments of emotional failures which will definitely lead to addictions.

That's the consequence, gamblers are very well entertained at first, after tasting some wins they will continue not knowing that it will be the
start of too much engagement, after suffering from streak of losses they will no longer feel the enjoyment but the aggressiveness to win back
those wasted money inside the house.

If gamblers can't balance the situations, getting addicted because of wanting to win money will keep them more engage.

The main factor lies deep within our own human nature. For me there is no bigger factor that leads into gambling addiction than the universal bad feeling of greed. Greed can eat you from inside worse than dangerous diseases and have also destroyed many people lives, leads many to gambling addiction and a lot of other bad things.

Same here, and I think maybe this is the key for not getting addicted to gambling. If you play only with very small amounts, you will never win big, but you will never get addicted either. You can enjoy the game while not risking significant(for you personally) amounts of money, and then if you lose, you don't have that urge for recovering your losses.

Sometimes, lottery is a good example, you can even win big while risking almost nothing. But you have to come to terms with the fact that your chances are very slim, and you should never try to increase your chances by buying more tickets.

Gambling is something where money play a big role so the people are having intention of making money and their greed will make them to fall for gambling addiction.Addiction can also caused by some other reason,in general the chances of addiction to something when we are sad and alone is highly possible because our mind want happiness so it will stick with the habits which is giving happiness to the person.

Only one thing that triggers all to become addicted and that is greediness,theres nothing that deals with our lust in having big profit but in the end results to losing and that is being greed aside from this theres none .addict can prove that this is indeed

Yes. Money will always be the causes of gambling addiction for most people because the hope making more money or recovering losses are main reason why money use to be the reason for most people addiction. Infact, every gambler that do gambling because of the greed of making money, recovering losses and in sad situation are ready addicted from every first start.

Yes should the gambler make money management before play gambling games and making plan gambling such as how much numbers of losing money in gambling, gambling games is like trading alternatives coins it is needed clear of planning before playing gambling. So at least there is rules of gambler when they stop playing gambling or strat playing gambling.

Greediness will especially if you don't have a good strategy to win, you conditioned your mind to win but without specific strategy to do it, it will result to nothing but losses, and when you keep losing, there is a higher chance that you will be addicted since you'll continue to get challenge and still gamble hoping to win.

I have experienced it even though I'm not fully aware that I was greedy at that time. I know for myself that I keep on playing and managing to want a higher goal than originally intended, but then I just stopped right when I was losing a lot more money than I should've. I'm just curious about how others do about it. Do other people deposit their "risking amount" to gamble and it's either completely use it all or deposit a large amount then use a portion of it then withdraw?

Deposit risk amount that we already prepare if lose is good. And maybe a lot of people already do that. If we still feel loss after get win and be greedy and then end with loss, i think we still not think that first amount that we deposited is ready if we lose.

It's because of money. That pushes gamblers to become addicted because they want money and gambling could give them big in a short period of time. Even the results is opposite for most of the time they are still playing. That's what money can do so self control is very important in that way you can limit yourself from making unnecessary decision.

The things that trigger us to become gambling addiction is because we have a big curiosity about the winning part. We still chasing the winning no matter if we are spending more money and I think some of us wants to feel how it looks like when they can win the games. That is not good for you, and it's better to realize that when we were playing gambling, the chances to get lost will bigger than to get a win. So we need always to think and aware of that.

The hunger for the win and to chase the losses is what makes losing isn't good to your ear. I'd love to win most of the time and this is the reason why when I win, it encourages me more and it boosts my confidence.

This mostly the problem that comes out for each gambler that doesn't care for himself but just chase wins. When he/she losses control to his emotion, it will trigger him/her to take more bets which gives an unpredictable result but the effect is predictable.

As stated it is the money that keeps the gamblers triggered towards the gambling. Whether they win or loss isn't a big thing, the hope of earning lets them active. Here very few becomes pro gamblers while majority loss big. Another thing whether it is winning, the user continues and if it is loss the user tries to retain the loss. So there is nothing like triggering point other than money.

Greediness. When someone are losing more in gambling, he keep motivating himself that he can get it back. Because he wants to get it back, he continue gambling until he gets back his money.

and may just realize the mistake after losing all of his assets ;D
greediness is very difficult to control for some gamblers

The money is the most important thing for a person to involved and get addicted to gambling because gambling is also been and huge addiction once we entered into this the solution for getting out from that is very difficult so we need to be more alert before addicted to it.

Indeed. That was the point. Always winning really makes no sense anymore because how can you learn from experience if you haven't try loosing even a single game. Loosing makes us realize that we are not that perfect. Let us just think between the line that whenever we play, we must accept the fact of winning or loosing so that we will not rush into keep on pushing hard to regain your loss because it can just lead you to addiction which is a bad thing if not taken into control. You will surely get interested into the  online casino (https://to.crwd.cr/smtm) I am currently into and enjoy the variety of games and the bonus reward for doing your first deposit.

It's not only about money. Sometimes when people lose their bets while they are gambling they don't feel well with themselves. It is like their self-esteem is dropping down and other people will notice that. They just want to show off and have a successful prestige to others. This is what can trigger gambling addiction apart from money.

Yeah that is the root of this problem, people want to get infinite profits, get rich form gambling. the point is they want a profit thats
why they always look for win and pursue it until they become addicts

I tend to disagree. If it's profit you're looking for then it's very seldom that you'll find it in gambling. Perhaps a couple of lucky rolls but mostly you're likely to end up at a loss. People don't get addicted because of losing. There's something with the experience of gambling that appeals to certain people whether they win or not. The act itself of placing bets is what triggers this.

It doesn't trigger the addiction,it comes from the environment of a person mostly which gets trigger them to just gamble too often to get away from something.

actually you have a point on that. if he has other things to do more important than being hooked into gambling, then he wont be addicted, right?
greediness is just part of it but it is not really the root of why you are getting addicted to something.
this topic has been discussed several times already and i would say gambling addiction is related to psychological disorders that a person is suffering from. not so nice to hear about but many studies have shown that the vulnerability of a certain individual to addiction is due to his state of mind at that moment

There could be so many motivations behind why should one enter the world of gambling. Some might want to make money. Others might aim for fame. But majority are in for the profits. Along with the experience required, people believe that LUCK plays the major role, enabling you to win at gambling. I think there are alternatives to it and could be explored and invested in wisely with much sure return.

Luck can never be avoided, because of the fact that luck has a very big role in determining someone in winning the gambling game.
It is also true that gambling is not the right way to become a source of income. Gambling games are a medium for getting entertainment.

This one is new to me.
Is this a fact or is op just making it up.  I think More people will be into gambling if winning is that easy.

As long as people think gambling as a easy way to make money they are going to be suffering from this issues.

So if you heard about someone who got addicted to gambling then try to get him into a rehab centre that is what we can do most.

Right.Most of the gamblers today treat gambling as a means of living so they would make bigger bets in exchange for an instant profit.But gambling isn't all about winnings,it's more of losses.But due to man's greed,even if the chance for winning is very little,still they would gamble until they go home pennyless.Gambling addiction can be prevented if the gambler itself has set his own limits and has self-discipline.Otherwise he will be put into a rehabilatation center for recovery.

The part about "gambling is like trading alternative" is true to some extent.  Op statement about winning triggering addiction also confirms this because I tend to trade more when I am making profit and trade less when I am making loses.

Gambling is not an easy way to make money and if anyone thinks like this, then surely he is wrong. Win is difficult to achieve again and again in gambling and the losing percentage is more. But since no skill is involved in gambling, many people keep on trying to win and this make them addiction to gambling.

That is great truth, you and me did not need skills to gamble and that is why people keep doing it because it is clear that as far as you have funds you can open account and start gambling in a second and keep doing it with many lose make people to become addicted to it.

There are always two types of person, one is greedy with no plans that keep pushing his limits until he runs out of money and the other one is greedy yet he has a specific plan to execute and has a stop loss button if the plan didn't go as well. And that person is a greedy one with skills compared to the one that has no skills but depending on his luck.

I do agree with you. Sometimes or let us just say that most of the time, gambling addiction can be triggered by the lack of contentment, greediness and too much wanting of money in hand in terms of using playing gambling to earn or make money from it. Well, the first thing that a gambler must know before getting engage into the game is the possibility of loosing the game and to know his limits or when to stop because keep on pushing it through will just make you loose even more making you to chase your losses which is not a good thing to do. To avoid getting into addiction, we must always keep in mind that we should have our self-control and the acceptance on whatever will be the result of the match. Which I truly assure whenever I get to engaged into the variety of games I do play into the best  crypto casino (https://vegascasino.io/casino/video-slots/wild-pixies?utm_source=ccwp) I am currently into playing games like poker, black jack and a lot more which I do enjoy with proper moderation as well as their great deal of bonuses for just doing deposits like 100% deposit bonus for the first time deposit in terms of Bitcoin to have a convenient gaming experience.

Gambling addicts certainly have a lot of money because they always play because they are supported by their finances, and if there is no money, those who have become addicts will try to have or find money to be able to play gambling.
likely because they feel curious and ever get profit that makes them motivated to always play.

The primary cause of addiction is the satisfaction you get from repeatedly doing your hobby or an activity. But in gambling, it involves the chance to earn/lose money depending on your luck. Addiction primarily starts in the brain and eventually cascades and evolves into a hobby then to being addicted to such.

I disagree, since also losing triggers addiction. That feeling when you lose in a bet will unexpectedly trigger an adrenaline in hoping to recover your losses which ultimately makes your situation worse. Gambling can never be profitable, let alone beneficial when you view it as a means of earning money.

  Precisely, loses may create certain act to become more aggressive on deliberating to play the game in order to retrieve loses. Somehow, gamble can actuate people's eagerness to play, as it can give profits on playing it wisely, but attaching more to win will also trigger us to play the game that may end up of loses afterall. And that's how addiction manipulated our brain to become aggressive on playing the game.

You're right. Winning isn't good at all times. It just want me to win more and more which makes my addiction worst and which makes my gambling go to the waste. Greed and addiction always lose my fund and this wouldn't give me any good in my gambling strategy. I just limit myself and did not play frequently.

Winning doesn’t make you already have the profit because for sure your past games are a losing streak to you so don’t celebrat yet and if you are able to go home with profit i believe that is more better. Limit yourself is a big deal in gambling, i do always have this one because i don’t want to lose everything.

I think it's not just greed or a desire to make profit why someone become an addict. Having a habit of gambling without stopping can also make you unable to stop playing and eventually make you an addict, many of the players play too often and make it a daily activity so they are trapped inside

Winning is definitely the thing that triggers gambling addiction most of the times because everyone wants more money and for them gambling seems like the quickest and easiest option to optain it. When you win one time you get a feel of that and you want more so you continue hoping the same thing will happen to you every time.

Lol theres no such thing as two different types of greedy person

Greedy is always wanting to gain and gain without looking for the losses because thats the attitude and character of specific individual

But the second person that you are saying is the Controllable type of person,those who can.manage their desires for winnings

I think money is what triggers the addiction because wining or losing is secondary and most likely people in the end are on a losing note as not everyone can make money from it. If people play just for money than addiction rate is very high.

Actually, the two of you got some point regarding this. The greed of money or the hunger to win (for uplifting self-worth i guess) are only one of the major reasons for gambling addiction. However, not all of the gamblers got the same thing simply because each one of them have different perspectives. Here's an example, the type of people which treat gambling as a means of making a living might say that their addiction is rooted from lack of money thus resulting to greed of money. On the other hand, rich gamblers might say that they only do it just for fun because losing on such game is no longer a big deal for them. Get my point ;)?

Perhaps, I can give the other thing that could cause us to become addicted to gambling. That one thing is curiosity which always comes to the gamblers no matter if they win or even lose. We as human have a big curiosity about one thing, and if that thing is gambling, then it could attract us to going deeper in the gambling game.

Once we are going deeper in the gambling, the addiction will start, and we could not remember what our reason to play gambling in the early time is. In the end, we are part of the addicted people to gambling, and we are difficult to leave gambling.

Conceivably chasing after lost might be the major reason why that can trigger gambling addiction. Whenever a gambler chase after her lost there is the possibility of that gambler to endanger herself in gambling addiction, since i started gambling, i have never once chase after my looses whenever am about to play fresh games, this has helped me till now and not addicted in gambling.

Besides the winnings a part would be the speed you hit some high gainers. May it 2 times in a short time span you will try the whole evening to repeat it since you have seen it is possible.

Yes, curiosity to see whether today we are lucky enough or not could make us addicted without we even realize it. There are even people who uses their time to learn to create strategy while not in gambling places. Once we dedicated most of our time just in gambling stuffs, then we could be addicted so soon.

Gambling addiction happens mostly with users who have a fixed mind of getting or earning big through gambling. This keeps the user actively try to earn more and more through gambling even when he's losing. Other than this gambling addiction happens when an user finds a person next to him earning big through gambling in a short time period.

Envy or being inspired, we can't tell, but most likely we envy and we think we can also win.
We failed to see the reality that there are winners and losers in gambling, and not everyday is your winning day.
Addiction will certainly come if you have the discipline that is necessary, you think of winning big but you don't have the capacity to do it, that's why you get frustrated and will try to chase your loses if you have a long losing streak, until you get busted.

Right,we get triggered to gamble based on the others winning expected to be that winner to be ourselves soon.This is the success strategy of gambling industry's as well,so understand it and try not to get trapped into addiction by keeping the things under our limits.

Exactly this right the words that I bolded above will be having possible of having triggered on an addiction, once they have earned once this is the moment that gambling addiction triggered on gamblers. If you are focussed on it and once you are a weak person, of course, you've chasing on it hoping that you get a high chance to have more profit. But the truth is you were on the trap of addiction which hardly to cure and need to rehabilitation for the mental illness correction.

Yeah agree with you I think it is not good to be addicted for something but in case if you don’t have anything to do you can spend your time in gambling as it is the most time saving and money saving resource for us. I like to gamble whenever I get free but never let gambling mix or disturb my daily retinue even then I am making enough income from gambling.

Easy question for me to answer is whenever there is a sports match being advertised on TV think what the spread might be.
Or for example if a athlete is on a commercial, my brain goes into gambling mode and I think about ways to make money.

That’s right; The thing with always trying to win is that it can easily lead to greed and with time addiction. Some gamblers are never content with whatever they win, they always desire to win more and in trying to win more they lose and then they are on another mission to recovering all that is lost, so before you know it they are already on the journey to addiction.

I think the major problem with people who always want to win more in gambling is lack self-control and discipline.it wouldn’t have been a problem. Let’s say it’s normal to want more money like Oliver twist, but at least let’s know when to say quit, it’s not a do or die affair to win always. The too much time spent in trying to can have effect on the brain that can lead to addiction.

We fall of getting addicted to gambling because we misunderstood everything, gambling isn't supposedly used to earn profit but rather as entertainment. We already know that we have a low chance of winning but we still take the risk which is wrong and when the time we lose everything we intend to chase our losses which is kinda impossible. Personally, I've been addicted before but I've realized it has a lot of negative impact on me but it is still fun so I didn't stop and now I am currently playing in this bitcoin casino (https://vegascasino.io/casino/video-slots/durian-dynamite?utm_source=ccdd) and it is undeniably fun because of bonuses and its amazing features. But regardless of what it has, I can manage somehow because I set a limit for myself.

Lots of things can be a trigger for addiction. Desperation to get money can be one but depression & problems at home can be others. There are too many triggere to try & pin point.

Just remember to gamble responsibly. Only bet with what you can afford to lose.

I don’t support that at all, there is nothing bad about with winning and it can never be among the things that triggers addiction. No one wants to lose in a game and it is very normal to want to play again after winning. It’s in rare cases you will see people who won a game and just say goodbye without having a retrial. It is normal to want to replay with the hope of winning again.

The only thing is to limit greed while trying to win again, What I do in this case is not to play with all the profit I made from the first win, I can put a part of it to replay and when I lose, I just quit for the day. That is where self-control comes in. It is greed that actually triggers addiction not winning.

I agree with the statement that a money making mindset in gambling is bad and could actually get you addicted. I believe that the frequency of doing something also does so. It makes you an addict. This is human psychology that is not very easy to get over for some people and in such cases; one has to consult a psychologist in case there is severity in gambling addiction.

They are yearning for the excitement that comes with playing with gambling and don't mind if they are winning or not, they will only realize that they are playing too much and really hooked on gambling when they are in misery or family help them to realize that they are already a chronic gambler.

What Triggers Gambling Addiction?

Gamblers are always wanted profit, by hunting on this and chasing more and more will become triggered into gambling addiction without notice to the gambler because all of their minds is profit which is very hard to overcome. It will result in addiction if you let this problem grow and always wanted profit. You can divert into other activity once you are infected with gambling addiction you can't recover this.

Human nature, thats the culprit of addiction. We dont get satisfied how much we earn. sometimes we earn some handsome amount on those gaming sites but the addiction to play more and more results in losing all we have there, we all know ultimately we will lose there despite how many games we won before. Secondly, some sites don't provide instant withdrawal facility so we get forced to play more there, those ones are also the culprit of our capital loss because of this I chosen vegas (https://vegascasino.io/promotions/super-boom?utm_source=sbcc) because they provide instant withdrawal so I can control my temptation to play more after withdrawing amount and do some fun in real world with the help of earned amount instead virtual world.  Plus they give so many exciting offers to new users and on monthly deposition its most trustful site out there that offers a variety of games.

What triggers addiction is the greed on winning. Control your emotions and stop if it needs to be stopped. If you see you are on a lossing streak, then refrain from doing another bet and take a break to refresh and avoid being addicted.

Yes, I think that is right, greed and chasing profit were the main reasons that can be triggered into gambling addiction. People always wanted when they are in gambling so I guess that it is the reason to triggered into addiction if you can't control these things and put into your mind gambling is not good for chasing habit because there's no cure when you are in addiction.

Of course, hunting money, people get addicted because of seeking money which they think that gambling is easy to multiply your capital but the fact is time to time of doing it you've already triggered the addiction which is you don't know if you are addicted too. If you are affected this you can rehab for mental illness development.

I'll be honest with what OP said about winning, winning is good in all times. Yes it may affect your emotion and decisions but so be it that winning is what everyone wants. It may not be good sometimes, for others but for me it's totally a big break whenever I win.

Greed is human nature and its part of the process when we gamble. We all want to hit that jackpot and take the winning with us. A lot of factors that triggers gambling addiction and all of the points that has been mentioned were considerable.

Gamblers will never rehab theirselves because they still want to play and have fun, if addiction result to a serious problem they will just stop for a while. Addiction triggers by the attitude of the gambelrs, its quiet sad they failed to be more responsible.

When you are addicted you can stop for a while? I think that is impossible to happen because when you are addicted the things always came up in your mind is just gambling and gambling and gambling. So how did you stop? Your lucky is there's somebody willing to cure your mind of gambling addiction, then which rehabilitation is the best answer.

Gamblers can still avoid addiction if they chose to avoid it too.But if you gamble more often making you lose even more is really a proof that you're addicted to gambling.Greed is what makes a man become addicted to gambling so we should see to it that we can control ourselves when we gamble.

But not all people do have that capability to go into a rehab center.The most probable thing to be done first is on how you would self realize
on your mistake on getting addicted to gambling.Yourself realization alone would already be an enough thing for you to completely stop gambling.
What triggers gambling addiction? Its greed for money.

I think the thought of making gambling as a medium to hit a jackpot price is what makes a gambler falls into addiction. Man has no satisfaction so as a gambler, he will keep on chasing not just profits but also losses which at the end of the day,making his life worser than ever. The greediness of people has really no place in gambling.

Even being addicted, gamblers still have a choice: to destroy themselves feeding the addiction, or to think on their families, friends, their loved ones. It can be very hard, but any addiction can be stopped if the person has willpower.
I've already seen people with cigarette, alcohol addiction stop without rehabilitation, just through willpower and faith. In gambling, the player just needs to stop greediness and to start seeing his financial life in a different manner.

There are some people that, once they got a taste of winning, they hunger for more. And I think, that's what causes addiction not just in gambling but also in other games. In that context, we could also say thay they are addicted to winning. They don't mind how much they spend at all. Personally, I get (a bit) addicted to playing games. I used to tell myself, "Last one then I'll stop." But I guess I was only fooling myself because after the supposed to be last one, there will be another 'last one' and another and another. Good thing I still have self control and I think others should not lose that control, too.

Yes, at least gamblers need to learn how to prevent the addiction and know when to quit from gambling. They have their choice to stay at the website or leave the website, and if they don't want to get more losses, then they need to leave the place as soon as possible. By playing more often, someone can become addicted, and greed will come to him if he can win the game and that will make him chase more win money.

Gambling addiction can happen to everyone, not just for veterans or new gamblers but the chance to become addiction will bigger to the new gamblers because they are not yet learning about how to control themselves in the gambling game. And the first thing that could trigger someone new in gambling will be chasing the win money because they are tempted to see the big prize on the site and that makes them play longer than the others.

Winning a lot is the most crucial element of gambling addiction. Sometimes you also need to lose. Imagine if most of the time youll always win. It turns out that your life is not complete if you cant play within a day. Dont make your life depends on gambling. Self control is the key on gambling. You have calm your mind and analyze the situation. Dont just be happy go lucky.

For me it's important to be realistic in gambling, learning to accept loses is the most important as that will drive you to be aggressive if you cannot accept loses. There are only two possibilities in gambling, either we win or loss, but of course who would want to loss in gambling, we all want to win but it's important to be ready in case we loss.

Gambling is a game where we don't have the edge, or the odds is not in our favor, so that explains why we lose most of the time.

They are hunger for more that is the reason why they'll get into addiction and not even realize that they could lose a lot rather than of winning.
Self-control is very important in gambling and we should have to think it wisely otherwise we will be caught into addiction.
We never chase of winning cause not all the time it is favorable to us but losing will be always in our side.

Yeah from the recurring activity, he has the pressure to make a profit, even though in gambling you can lose and you will keep trying every day to make a profit and ultimately losses are often experienced. and players only play to recover losses as long as they being an addict, that's what I experienced a long time ago

Not all the gamblers out there want profits and so many people try to gamble for their own joy and entertainment. There is the element of win and loose and the money flow is so smooth that people, normally the guys with poor financial backgrounds, start gambling for money which is the start of addiction. The frequency of how much you gamble is the main reason of gambling addiction.

That's a bad practice, you'll keep gambling to recover your loses if you don't want to accept you loss.
Well, you have to because it's part of the game, win or loss we should stay calm and be discipline, losing control will likely result to bigger trouble in the long run.

And that is a clear example of being stupid person right?those people that rely their life in gambling are those human that has no goof future

Imagine that you are gambling your life? Where this will headed you?to failure?remember that gambling is for lucky one and not the talented so better find real work and be contented in small incoms than risk in this gaming

Maybe what they can think hard when they run out of what they have and some are worse by fighting for what they have to continue to play very emotionally severe gambling, returning to themselves, we can't do more for it , maybe in the future we can control ourselves to play gambling not too hard, very regrettable for people who are heavily addicted.

First of all, people come in gambling because of easy money desire. Wins stimulate them to keep playing as well as losses stimulate them to win it back. This vicious circle is very hard to interrupt.

Yes, they always come back to try to win that money, but not all of them can get the money because they don't have the same luck to win. And when they think that they can get easy money from gambling, they will keep trying, and soon, they will become addicted to gambling without they realize. Even if they realize, that will be too late to get out from gambling but it still possible to quit gambling.

Despite the fact that "Greed" is human nature but it is the only word which is enough to explain gambling addiction.
I agree that only a single win can lead to addiction if a person can't control his/her emotions.

When you are gambling you very well know that you are not going to win all the time, even then greed is not the main reason for people to become addicted, physiological state of an individual at that particular time is more important and if he is into depression he might be exhausting his money gambling and greed to make more money is not the only factor. In fact, there is no one factor to become an addict, there is a lot of factors to be in that situation.

Gamblers "hunting for money" will likely not cause addiction.
What may likely cause addiction from my understanding of how this thing works is gambling for pleasure. Greedy gamblers will likely withdraw once there is huge financial losses but things won't be that easy for pleasure seeking gamblers.

Indeed greediness has the ability to trigger gambling addiction. Most at times, gamblers get into losses because of greediness and when trying to recover their looses they get into addiction. Looses cannot be recover in gambling, what is lost is lost, as an attempt to get it back welcome addiction.

It's the attitude that every gambler has to eliminate as we will never feel fulfilled in gambling if we are greedy.
Gambling is risky and whether we will accept it or not, the odds are not in our favor, so if we win, we need to be discipline enough to stop, same with losing.

That is nice and detailed. I would love to add more into the thread by talking about how so many young people get involved in gambling and get addicted. The sole reason behind addiction among young people is among many other reasons the quest to make money and become billionaires overnight. They are inspired by the billionaires in gambling and due achieve such a status, the frequency of their gambling activity tends to stay high and lead to addiction.

Every time you're not get addicted to gambling because of the winning but sometimes you get addicted towards it because of consistently losing. In this phase, you're going to recover all that money which you had to lose in gambling and hoping that you're going to cover it by winning upcoming bets.

This attitude breaks us. This is a hard situation you cannot overcome this situation easily. So don't be in it otherwise you will destroy your life not mentally but physically also.

People that are on gambling addiction like to satisfy two things, their feelings and their desires, once both are satisfied in their early bet, it their early bet or early days of betting, they might become addictive, unless they have someone who they can trust that will tell them when and how to stop, if not they will always look forward to playing again and again.

Exactly, once they started playing it and at the time when they started winning several bets they think it is quite easy to earn and afterward these people are going to become more hungry or greedy to satisfy their hunger. Then they start to play more and as per the time they going to suffer from heavy losses. So don't be consistent in gambling, if you consistently play here you going to see the results of losing. So being patient here and don't be in gambling regularly.

Gambling is a serious addiction which can be harmful both physically, psychological and socially. People say gaming is harmless fun. But it has a lot of consequences if it is not treated in the correct time. Scientifically gambling is just an impulsive disorder which increases progressively as you gamble, it can cause a lot of problems like depression and anxiety and many more it can also need you for suicidal feeling but always remember never gamble to make money always gamble to entertain yourself. It's just a game, not your Income source.

They wont be satisfied with their first bet.

Thats who humans function. They always want to make money by the easy way and that is gambling. Who wants to work their asses off all day long? Funny thing is that the second one is actually the safer one leaving out occupational hazards. Addicting gamblers is easy because they are having a brain that does not do any logic or reason and being lazy these modalities have been shut down long back. Give them an impetus to gamble more like a small promo or a lucky bet and they will immediately get addicted to the site.

It always come down to greed, want, and need in money. Money has always been one of the reasons why people choose something dangerous, risky, and unpractical. Many people get addicted because of money solely. But there are rare people who became addicts for the sole reason of thrill or fun. Like I said, they are rare, like one in a million kind of rare. Some people get addicted because of the amount you can earn as well as the game itself enthralls them. I am the latter type of person wherein I got addicted because of the amount that I can get as well as the game itself lured me into playing more due to its positive charms. I play in this site (https://vegascasino.io/casino/video-slots/durian-dynamite?utm_source=ccdd&fbclid=IwAR0Tu65SJTelxcGIIGCJs-Q6grN9A58UYmIRJbAdhoWmZQdIKHdJDYeCfgg) for reasons like it uses bitcoin as its currency and I earn a good amount of bitcoin, and because the games are fun to play with. Who won't get addicted if this site offers ample amount of bonuses on your first and second deposit as well as your first monthly deposit. In addition, a wide range of games I can choose from without getting bored. They also got a live casino wherein I can play with different players around the globe in real time and there's a real dealer which gives me a real life experience even though in reality I'm playing in front of may laptop. If I'm going to get addicted in something, I'd make sure that it's worth getting addicted for.

Without self control is one of the reason why a person fall on the trap of addiction on gambling, but what's the trigger point was due to their aggressiveness to win despite of having no assurance. Some gamblers wasn't able to manage themselves towards controlling their passion on betting, sadly the result was not good after all. Most of them drowned with debts because of lost funds used for gambling activities.

This gambling addiction I think only applies to those people who has the capacity to spend money for gambling. Those who have nothing will have no addiction unless they bet in pennies only. As for me because I don't have much to spend though I'd like to try my gambling strategy I can't afford to lose more as I have to put my money on something worth.

Gambling addictions can be triggered even you don't have enough money, there's gambling addicted person who commits crimes as they don't have
money to continue but because of their mentality they wanted to proceed to the point that they will do things which supposedly they will not deal
with, but because of addictions they continue.

it's true that winning is always not the solution. some of my strategies are losing a very small amount until you see a chain of losses and then after like 5-6 loses you can start taking bigger bets and make good profits. but the addition is a serious thing, I can say i definitely do not have an addiction its an impulsive disorder which makes people do crazy stuff when they lose. if anyone wants to make money out of Gambling then please stop right now.. it is just a stupid game nothing else.

Only those who want to make money from the gambling they would get addicted to it and thus it is very high chance that those people might get addicted very easily to such gambling as money is something which washes your brain .

I think what triggers gambling addiction is the fun, the excitement and of course to take back the money you lose which makes you frustrated all the times. When playing 2-3 bets from a dice game it really is fun specially when you are winning but when you are winning and then you will start to be greedy which you will bet more and more until you find yourself losing and wanting to get back you lost until none of your balance remains.

That is true. We see many people become greedy when they saw a chance to win and they will make a big bet in one time. But their plan doesn't always work because it will be difficult to beat the house if we don't have luck. They cannot control themselves in gambling, and that will trigger them to spend more money because they hope that in the next round, they will win the game.

Greed and addiction is not only in loss, but it is in winning too. Gambling addiction is of two types.

First, you are winning in gambling and you keep on playing with hope to win more and you lose everything in greed.

Secondly you lose in gambling and you still invest more money to play more and in the end lose more. So this can also be called addiction.

People who are getting addicted to gambling for its fun are very less,most of the gamblers addicted due to greediness.

yes mostly the greed will make the person to think not more about the future and then was lot more money and get addicted into it if they are getting lost again and again.

In my experience, it is not really the profit you are chasing after all or because you have won something on it. What really triggers my gambling addiction is my weak mind trying to convince myself that there is no way I could lose easily to that game and there must be a way somehow that I could win it all back. It always keeps replaying in my mind that I know it's wrong but it makes me think it is a raffle after a series of long streak that playing more means more chances of winning which we know is not that case.

Well, some of us really think that way, that's why we loss because we let our emotion affect our decision making.
That's the big problem if as a gambler we are weak emotionally, we can easily loss control and most of the time we will loss money as we will not be able to use our strategy properly. Only if we learn to discipline ourselves will have a good chance of winning, but that is still risky.

Gambling is only for people who are discipline, if you don't know how to discipline yourself, better stop taking the risk.

There are many factors but I will only state 2 of them.

1. Curiosity - I think many people are getting curious about gambling. How do gamblers feel when they win and lose? What are they doing so that they can win etc. This makes the person curious and will try to gamble.

2. Lack of self control - This is somewhat related to the first. Since the person is curious, he will try to gamble. Now he is winning and winning and become more greedy. He can't control himself until the time has come that he is out of money. He can't control himself because of his greediness and since he is greedy, he will do anything just to get money for gambling. Now he can be addicted in gambling because he is doing what he can do just to gamble.

I think most if gamblers wants to earn easy money especially a jackpot, so they always trying to gamble. After that they no longer notice  that they were have already a gambling addiction. The money is always a reason, the why most people are addicted in gambling.

When anyone show greedy in gambling, then definitely he is addicted gambler. I aware you when anyone is ready to lose everything in gambling for winning, then definitely he is addicted gambler.
No doubt by nature we all are greedy but we have a sense that what we are doing, but an addicted person has no sense just like a sensible person think for gambling and play it, So it is a different.

There are a lot of people who aim short money in gambling. Even it is not all, you are right if money is main factor why people get addicted. Because on the other side, for people not aim a money and only entertainment purposes when they do gambling, they still can control themself so they are not get addicted.

  People who are attached to earn quick money on gambling can trigger us to creat aggressive deliberation that may lead on addiction. Unfortunately, lack of wisdom and incontinence behavior will also lead to act unusual and enxiety. But in order to evade from addiction, we have to be cautious and take control ourselves for the possible consequences.

You are partially right but I feel it’s not all about these things you have mentioned.  Everyone is greedy in one way or the other especially when it has to do with money and for fun, there is always something about wanting more until we get so satisfied and satisfaction is something that never comes in gambling.  In Economics we say that human wants are insatiable.

It only takes a player with absolute self-control to overcome all these attributes, because definitely there will always be a spirit of greed and love to play more but it is not meant to be harmful or destroy a player, it can be overcome by those who are determined to play rightly. And to correct your last sentence, nothing in life is worth getting addicted over.

Self-controlled is one of a good idea in contributing to stopping triggered you by the addiction. I strongly agreed with the reply above on me as what users stated. Don't prevail the greed over your self and most especially chasing a loss is one of the gambler's problems if they can't manage their selves and you've stated above was right "nothing in life is worth getting addicted over".

I believe that there could be two reasons for gambling addiction. One being financial challenges to people who see gambling as a lifesaver which is not. Another could be immense love for the game and pure pleasure. If your frequency of gambling is very high, bear in mind that you will end up an addict and this might not sound so bad but it is very dangerous when it comes to the way it affects your life adversely.

Curiosity is the spark that begins this whole addiction process and unfortunately most people fall in this trap. We could compare this with people that start smoking out of curiosity. They smoke one cigarette to see how it tastes, then another one just for fun and after that it starts getting into their head so they continue doing it for a long time. The other reason why people continue gambling is because of their lack of money. When you don't have enough money and don't know how to earn enough you will look for ways to make the process easier and faster and that's what gambling is promoted for, a quick solution to make more money easier.

I think the adiction comes with the winning sensation, the true gambling adicts is because they have win big a couple of times and they want to feel that again, so, that's what makes people stop until their wallets hit zero.

No if you want to gamble again and again it does not mean you will lose it can be good as well, but you will be able to get profit as much as time you spend in gambling it gives you benefit you can earn from it you can learn from it, so those people who are thinking about lose only will never be able to achieve goal of life, don’t be worry gambling addiction is not bad if you are earning.

True and ego makes them reach that point. Its like every individual who can hardly accept defeat so it is also the same with gambling. They cannot accept the fact that they lost so they try even more harder to prove to themselves that they can also win until they lose all they have in their pocket.

You are right winning is what really lead to addition to gambling, because once you won a big amount in gambling the quest to win more will lead to you sticking to the games with the aim to win more and getting too greedy is another cause of addition. No one really play gambling games for fun any more but is all about the money which is very addicting.

Take control ourself is first thing that we must have before do gambling for sure. Because it can make us avoid addicted to anything, not only gambling but other bad things. But that is little hard to do for some people.

Whether we like it or not greed is in human’s nature, in their effort to earn money they choose to gamble because it’s where they can win big time without thinking that they can also lose more than what they have. We all have this mindset wherein we tend to always gamble even beyond our spending because of the hope that one day will win, not realizing that it already came to a point of being addicted to it.

Greed will always on our side, agree or not. Maybe in the first time, we can say that greed will not get close to me because I can control myself in gambling. But soon or later, if he still stays in the gambling places in the long, he will become addicting in gambling because of his greed. Many of us have proved that greed will be the biggest mistake we made, and we do not realize about this. In the end, we realize when we lose all of the money.

The money is the reason they entered the casino but the greed is what keeps them going and not stopping. Whole groups of addicts are just fed on by their inner hunger of greediness.

They are often those who are willing to defy logic because technically its not possible to beat the house edge if you are continuing to play without stopping after a green streak. But who cares about these logics when drug affected retarded brains start playing a shiny game of slots?

Greed is a fact, but not the most important one.
I think that people believe that they are not rich and due to that fact they try to make more money. The easiest way to do so is by gambling because they don't need so much efforts as it is more relevant to luck.

Tendency to win the game forces to fall in again and again investing money. This would be any game. And the feel you would cherish after winning the game would hunger again for the same. Every game, it may be based on any sports, would tempt to play and experience. These are few temptations that trigger addiction.

It comes as a result of facing with certain losses as well then gambler tries to bet more and more in order to collect some wins. Many factors involve in gambling addiction but the most common are stated therefore gamblers get addicted that leads to extremely harsh situations. Regardless of any kind of game it is but the approach and results are the same as stated that is why we should have control.

As usually if reading medical sources, they blame for any addiction, including gambling, person's past.  The addicted player usually has one of the following issues: Violations in the field of self-esteem, interpersonal disorders or dysregulation of own state of arousal. And then you need only some event which will change the trigger, and person gets emotions and arousal he missed, and he gets a need to repeat it again.

I agree, they let gambling take control over of themselves. They continue gambling even when they're almost broke because of the hope that they might be lucky and hit a jackpot when in fact the chances of winning is very low. Self control is very important in gambling because you don't have control you might lose everything.

Gambling most of the time would not be a problem to anyone as long as they have the control.
I am a gambler who also like to try my luck betting on lottery, and I never counted my loses anymore as I know when I hit the jackpot
that would certainly change my life. I know my chance, it's very low, but since it's possible to win, I will still hope that one day I will win.
Note that I am just using my spare money, money that I can lose without feeling upset or disappointment.

Adrenaline that you get in between those dice rolls, human nature loves heart pumping moments and gambling easily provides that.

When I gamble through bots, I don't get addicted but when I play manually, I tend to get drift away.

That's usual for lottery bettors since the amount is very minimal plus you don't spend a lot of time for it. Place a bet and then wait the nexr day. Your emotions hardly gets a chance to affect your decision making also because there aren't very many decisions to be made. For casino players, this is where the challenge is. The more time you invest in gambling, the more emotionally drawn you are to it. And the more money you'll likely spend. Trigger for addiction? It starts with your interest in gambling and your decisions that will follow it.

This happens if you fail to set a goal when to stop, it's very important to have someone with you when gambling and this is a friend that you bring along is not a gambler, he will be the one to urge you to stop when you are having a long run of lost, you will get out of control if you are alone and do not have control.

Having an ally or a friend when gambling can sometimes encourages you to play more because of your ego , you need to show up your friend that you can win more and you are expert in playing that game and sometimes  your friend will be the reason on why you play more because he will encourage you to gamble  . Idk think that winning triggers adiction because for me i already feel satiafied after i won but not when i loose because i feel the need to revenge  .

Then what is the most important one according to you?

That is greed. Nothing more. Being satisfied with what you have is called being content and is the opposite of greed. You are thus contradicting your own statement.

Yes but the luck is both powerful and deadly. So many people have been wiped off their money because of their addiction to gambling. In a way gambling is not a solution to poverty to getting rich. It is a source of entertainment and one should not waste their hard earned money there for just trying their luck. Those who dont understand this are the one who are becoming addicts.
