You are still gambling because you want to capture the feeling of excitement all over again,when you are gambling you are very much alive your heart beats fast very fast and you are very ecstatic when you win,so you will come back again and again to capture those  feelings and you don't care whether you win or lose..

I feel like the reason behind people get more and more addicted to gambling is because they've got friends in the casino and they sort of make the casino as their meeting place. They consider playing cards and gambling as their 'hang-out'. Just the peer pressure of your friends, basically, of gambling makes it so addicting.
Thats why a casino want to hire a friendly moderator who has good communication skill and can guiding the players patiently, so its comfortable for players to play there. But I'm not sure thats the reason why gamblers become addicted, since the only thing they want is profit, not a friend Cheesy

Well, in psychology if a human being feels safe in a place, then he'll come back again for sure. If they have a friendly mod then a lone gambler can finally have a "friend". And of course, that "friendly moderator" isn't just friendly. There's a manipulation going on there. If the mod is a girl, she might flirt with guys and if the mod is a man, then he can do some manipulation stuffs with girls. As simple as that. Just an intuition, though. I don't own a casino so I'm not sure.


You are still gambling because you want to capture the feeling of excitement all over again,when you are gambling you are very much alive your heart beats fast very fast and you are very ecstatic when you win,so you will come back again and again to capture those  feelings and you don't care whether you win or lose..
You only realize it when you lost at the end. In the middle of gambling there is really a feeling of excitement that sometimes you cannot control yourself. The demon always dictates us to bet more to win more, and in the end we lost our winnings including our bankroll. It is really sad that we have to learn our lesson the hard way.


Simply put it like this, when you are in a winning streak it's like you're in a jail cell. The door is open and anytime you can leave. But you don't, because you thought it will stay open forever, and you thought you will still have a winning streak.

Then after some time, you lost all your money, you wanna get out of the jail cell, but you can't. It's now shut. You can't get out of the fact that you are now bankrupt.

I hope you guys get it 'coz my explanation skills is kind of bad. Cheesy

Can't read the article right now, it says:



I refreshed it a lot of times but still it's giving that error.

Anyway, I think none of those are in the mind of a gambler. He doesn't think of himself being special or smth while playing. And since when did gambling offered "beating the life itself, gaining the immortality". Cheesy  Maybe some people think of themselves as a hustler in casino or that he's kind of special when it comes to gambling or smth but I'm pretty sure he's not thinking about "beating the life itself, gaining the immortality" Roll Eyes

Actually the excitement only comes up whenever you bet high amount unlike when you bet at low amount which makes you doenst feel anything. But I rather bet low amounts and earn little than betting high and end up losing everything.

well, i think you don't need to make a huge bet to have fun.
as long as you are taking risks and betting as much as you can, i mean the bet amount should be as big as you can afford with your pocket then it is still fun to play it.
you can take risk on your own bankroll by betting big percent of what you currently have.

Gambling is so addicting because everyone likes it to do, you can play games as well and that is fun to do.
But it let you also think that you can earn some money with it but that is actually not true.

I'm wonder why people still want to gamble although they already know that gamble always make you loss.
Being greed ? or there are another factor like gene or environment ?

Being greed is sometimes lead you to became addicted to it.
Also if the environment of that man/woman is stress full and always has a problem. It lead them into gambling as another way of shutting out the world and to help them forget their problem for a short time.

yes, that's right and most of the people think that gambling is the shortcut to become rich and always hope to win more.
maybe that's the cause why is gambling so addicting.

gambling games are better positioned as a hobby only, not to gamble positioned to be a serious job. if we could get the money from gambling so treat it all as a gift from our game.

Gambling is so addicting in my opinion, just because there is a chance that you can earn money. Also, it feels good to win, but losing feels pretty bad, so when you feel the feeling that you get when you win, you have the urge to win more.

The excitement of gambling is one the reasons why it is so addicting. Even though losing feels pretty bad, this triggers your mind to bet more and more until you become outrageous in hopes of getting your fortune back. When you're on rage you might as well bet all your money and that's when you go bankrupt. Wink

If you guys are thinking gambling can be a "job", then you're partially wrong. Yes, you can get decent profit from gambling if you're pretty good at it. But when you get addicted to it, you'll eventually money. If you want a job, then go outside and apply to a decent company. Get a day job instead of thinking gambling is your job.

Just because you always win in gambling, doesn't mean it'll stay forever like that. You'll eventually lose your money together with all the profit that you had.

Thats their main goal of going or playing gambling. To double, triple or even more their money. That thinking is the cause of addiction no matter how many times you lose.

Gambling is addicting because there are a lot of people that is still thinking that they can be rich because of gambling and that is not the best mindset that you can have.
If you are losing you should directly stop otherwise you are losing to much money and you can become poor.

It is so much true what you told but then also their are so many who use to gamble thinking that only, and i think it cannot be stopped , even knowing that anything can happen
