because gambling is easy to make money instantly, so people addicted to become rich in a short time from gambling,.
Yes everyone is addicted to instant gratification, that's what everyone is doing in this society, just wanting to get a lot of money really quick out of luck.

Don't get me wrong, to make al to of money you must need luck, but luck is not everything, you gotta put some effort, otherwise its just a gamble, and thats why some people are addicted to it.

It is so addicting because you have the possibility to double your money with just one click.
And who doesn't want more money?

Indeed, gambling is so addicting because of the fact its easy money you can earn and its also enjoying in my opinion.
Its also that stopping is so hard because you want to win the amount back you have lost, been there many times...

I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Why is it so addictive?

i know why you do that, you're like everyone else, after losing your money you want to win your lost money back, so you gamble again and again,

it is addictive because you can win easy money pretty fast, so after few tries you will want to play more

And that is the part where your going to be very addictive to it, I think that if you gamble you will need to not try and get back what is lost with gambling because you can never get it back that easily you will need patient and a lot of luck in it.
Many people like it to do. And they think that you can earn some fast and easy money, but that is not true.
You always lose more money than you win money and that is the problem. To win money you have to be lucky.

Why is it so addictive?

I think it's the same with any addiction. Gambling has the ability to active our physiological reward system, so you want to gamble, because you get a good feeling when you win, and your brain keeps telling you to try to experience that again.

Yes its the enjoying feeling and winning feeling that makes people get addicted, also they are thinking they can win a lot of money in a short time period.
Of course this is not true but the most people want to try it and if they do and play it for a while they will get addicted because they are enjoying it.

Gambling is very addicting and its because of many reason that are mentioned here but this reason all together are the answer from this thread.
The fact is that every person has his own reason why he is addicting, well some have the same but there are always differences.
Addicting is in most cases caused by enjoying this is not only at gambling.

Gambling is very addicting because its enjoying, I think that is the reason why some many people are addicting to it.
In fact the reason could also be the fact that gambling is easy money and a lot in a fast time.
Easy money but at the same time it can be big losses.
I had 0.4btc one time then in two bets on the roulette wheel lost it all.
So yes, it can be enjoying time only when you win. When you lose it is terrible times.

Why is it so addictive?

The euphoria that it gives the brain when you win. It's something that you crave. The feeling of winning. Or the chance of winning. I mean just imagining yourself winning a very huge amount gives you enough stimulus to gamble, Gamble everything at some point for a small chance of winning.

Yes they think that you can win indeed. But you lose always more money and that is very bad. They must know that gambling is very bad to do.
And of course it is fun to do. But you need to have borders for yourself. Otherwise you will get poor and that is not good.

Gambling is so addicting because you want to win money fast and are enjoying it, these both combined together will make you addicted.
Its all about the game if there was no money included and you never had the feeling that you won, you also will not get addicted in most cases.

That's right, every gambler think that the next time will replace his previous loses and win big amount of bitcoins, but in fact most likely he will lose again his hard earned coins.

I think they get addicted due to the fact from different reasons all together, they enjoying it and its also the fact they are playing it to make profit.
And if they have lost they want to win their losses back, so they stay playing over and over.
but to regain the loss was not easy, it takes time to get it.
perhaps he will get another defeat for the second time. if he is very eager to recover money from first defeat. instinct to win is what makes the player continues to play at gambling he will repeat the same mistakes

That's one of it's characteristics, it probably has something to do with brain chemistry and adrenaline rush and the like, it's fun when you are making money profit though...

That's part of the game itself, people have some fun while playing and even more fun when winning therefore they want more and people become addicted to gambling.

because feeling that you can win a lot so you will be rich, but when you gamble and you lose you become very sad and want to gamble more and more just to win what you lost and win even more than that, when you start gambling you need to decide how much you will gamble for that day, it will help

yes you're right, but there are also addicted simply because of love with the game, maybe some of them feel that the gambling game is very challenging and only those who have risked everything that can play
