What contributes to a casual gambler becoming an addicted gambler?

[LUCKMCFLY]

I have a friend, who is the one who took me to a physical casino for the first time, he is the cousin of a friend who studied with me at the university, but he has a problem, although I don't know if it is an addiction, I don't know if I should call it that, because it is A very strange case, when all the money he has in his pocket goes, he wastes it, he doesn't mind being left with nothing, he simply enjoys the game like that with that total irresponsibility, I call it irresponsibility because it's like I see him and I think that's the case, but he doesn't go to the casino every day, nor does he go crazy looking for more money, nor does he sell things nor is he compulsive about finding the money, but when he has everything it goes away and he continues his normal life, sometimes I laugh because he seems like a child, he runs out of money and accepts it and then goes to work and hopes he earns his money and everything, but it's something that sometimes I don't understand, it's like very crazy what he does, that is, if he sees me, he tells me that if I have some money to lend him, the same thing happens to him with trading, as he goes to exchange it is like Kucoin and that's why he Earn money.

To say that he has the technique to do the trading, no, the only thing he does is capture the whales and he knows them because he knows how to read the volume well, and that he goes to the highs that are pump and dump, according to him what he does That's it, but of course that's something that I don't see well at least, because he says he wins, if he wins 1mBTC he wants to take it to 8mBTC and that's something he always looks for, and when he runs out of money he starts asking the promoter to make trading, then in chaos on the contrary, he works, he is very hard-working, but the bad thing is that he comes across a casino, or comes across the idea of doing tanig, is that he does not skimp on playing, but he is not a person who is addicted, only because he spends his money in full, he doesn't have children or anything, I imagine, he shouldn't even have a girlfriend, why can someone like that have a wife? But is this a case of addiction? The way he acts makes me doubt a lot, it's really confusing.

Unexpected big wins are also the reason for some people who lead them to become gambling addicts, when regular gamblers win with big results they will be surprised and it encourages them to be more active in gambling, and they continue to imagine that winning will happen again, we knowing what the ending will be like, they end up throwing away more money compared to the winnings they get

I agree with that. It's not always the losers who are prone to addiction, winners too. Once they taste that one big win, there's a chance they might not stop because they will get hungrier to receive that feeling of joy again with a high multiplier win.
I think this is why the system of online gambling sites is mostly giving away wins to the non-VIP ranks. I know it because it happened to me and now that I am VIP, I can see the difference. Newbies are mostly winning because it's like an invitation to keep on betting until they run dry. But casinos do give back faster when you are a non-VIP so the feeling of going back and forth against the house will make you keep on betting until they feel like winning.
But I think it's still mostly those who are chasing losses who are infected by gambling addiction. I mean, there's a bigger percentage of them than the winners.

One win would really be able to cover all the small losses that you do have earlier on which your main thoughts that you are still doing pretty fine and this is something that you should be avoiding
on thinking up this way because it would really be creating such emotion that would really be leading into that desperation on which it would really be leading into further dealing which
might lead into addiction until you would be messing up your life with because your finances had been greatly been affected on which this is something that must be avoided in the first place.
Gambling isnt that bad and as long you arent that getting off balance in between time and money then you are really just that doing fine.

The only issue on here is that when a person do really goes beyond those border or limits then this is where things turns out to be salty. You cant really be able to think up well on whats wrong and whats
right because you have already put up yourself into such condition that you are already mainly thinking on doing gambling or simply having those kind of thoughts in mind that you are
that having that aim that you could easily make out some quick money or easy money with gambling on the time that you do play.

I agree with you. Gambling addiction will really affect our finances, where finances will most likely become a mess because gambling will most likely only result in defeat and loss of money as well as a strong temptation to continue gambling without thinking about the downside, with the many losses that occur in my opinion that is because of not being ready for something certain (defeat) or losing the money that has been bet, by not being able to accept this, of course it will trigger us to become vengeful and want to return to gambling in the hope of getting a win that can cover the loss that has occurred, but it is clear that everything there will be no end if we will not be able to realize the real gambling. Even though we have won, I don't think the temptation will disappear. In fact, by winning, of course the temptation to gamble will be stronger, it can trigger us to be more confident that we can get a bigger win, with decisions that are not considered, it can make us take the wrong steps. , continue gambling even though you have won. That's not the solution, when you win, the best option is to cash it out. If you continue gambling when you've won, you could lose all the winnings you've won. in the end you will only be annoyed and disappointed.

indeed, if we can control ourselves and not lose our limits in gambling, everything will be fine, after all,  gambling should be done in a reasonable manner, not exceeding normal or reasonable limits with many gamblers experiencing big losses or having problems because gambling is based on with one's own wrong actions, excessive gambling can lead to gambling addiction  as you say someone really goes beyond the limits until the bad effects and other problems start to come. It's not right to think of gambling as a way to make money quickly and surely, because it will only make us lose money and other things.

That's right, if a person has exceeded the limits of his abilities then he will immediately encounter unnatural changes, meaning changes in behavior that are unnatural, previously he behaved well, but if he overdoes it then goodness will occur in him. becomes bad and it will be a disaster for his life in the future. .
If it is related to gambling, excessive or excessive behavior is certainly not good for him when gambling and if he thinks he will immediately make a lot of money quickly and easily by gambling, that is a wrong perception.

I was wondering what makes someone transition from a casual gambler to a gambling addict. Here are six reasons I've identified.

• To find an alternative full-time earning source
• Chasing Losses
• Lack of Alternative Income earning opportunities
• Using Gambling as an Excuse for Personal/Profesional Problems
• lDream of Winning Big
• An excuse
• Setteling ongoing debt

If you have anything else then do write it down on this thread. This thread is only to help anyone who is into daily gambling realize the incident that led to compulsive gambling or everyday gambling.

This is a self-moderated thread that means if anyone here wants to vent out his or her frustration then they are welcome.

Let's hear it so that everyone knows.

most casual gamblers turn to addicted gamblers because of series of the own personal reasons that a best known to them but from own perspective they turn addicts because of selfishness, envy, greed, lack of funds just like you cited earlier. when i was trying to involve myself in gambling in my school days when i often follow my friends to visit a betting shop. i saw one guy who usually visit from time to time to gamble so i asked why he always coming here to gamble all the time, the answer that i got from him shocked me, he told me that he saw one his classmate that won huge AMOUNT of money and his life changed for good and that he is going to continue trying till he wins big. At that point i as so amazed because i can't imagine myself visiting betting shop just to win big like my fellow human being. There is grace in all we do, and gambling is not an exception to that believe and that gambling is a game of chance and luck, and we should not imitate others because we must definitely turn to addicts because for the fact that it favored Mr. A does not really mean that it is going to Favour Mr. B. so let's try as much as possible eliminate greed and selfishness to avoid turning to gambling addicts.
