Gambling gives hopes and dreams to gambler to make his dream come true and person begins to think gambling is the only way to fulfill his goals and scopes of life.Many people after getting addicted face many problems but this shortcut method keep them in deeper and deeper in gambling.

I think not all gambling games is addictive. there are few.
1st thing that why gambling is addictive because some of games has a high jackpot price that can attract gamblers to play if they win greedyness will execute and it will turn to addictive
and 2nd i think some of games is really addictive because of popularity of the game and gambling is for fun.

well i dont do a lot of gambling but in my opinion it might be addictive because of various reasons, my uncle was addicted to gambling and he told that everything was because of the fact that he was poor and he needed a lot of money really fast

Yes that is true. Most of the people think that gambling is the short cut to become rich so when people are in a financially difficult situations than mostly look for all these short cuts. After starting or losing initial money they want to get back their lost money at least, like this it will continue and slowly they will be addicted to these games.

i disagree, the casinos employ specific games that are more or less designed to be addicting and profit them be exploiting the addicted users. there's no point in making games that arent fun available to users, no one would play them and the casinos wouldnt generate profit, simple business model. all the flashing lights, the dealers shouting when there's a winner, its all designed to  get people hooked.

Yes correct. If any one play any games for long time there are more chances they may get addicted easily but if one is not interested that game then what ever times they play the game they will not get addicted. So basically one should be interested in those games then only they will get addicted. These gambling houses will come up with those kind of games where people can easily attracted.

Gambling is addictive because of our player habits, needs, thought to recover lost money and many other factors
One only gambles because the money he have is not sufficient and so do they try their luck.
 If lost today he again plays another day in thought to recover today's money by playing again
If won today he again plays another day because he got the source to get easy money. So wins increases their confidence of winning and makes him gamble again and again

well i dont do a lot of gambling but in my opinion it might be addictive because of various reasons, my uncle was addicted to gambling and he told that everything was because of the fact that he was poor and he needed a lot of money really fast

That's why gambling is so bad. It makes thousands rich as well millions poor

Why is it so addictive?

Because you want to win your money back. If you lose you need to accept that you lose it and stop.
Otherwise you will lose more. I not a active gambler but more a gamer is the same feeling so I know how it feels.

It's addictive because people know there's a chance they CAN win. It gives people false hope really.

Some people, once they start to win, they're never satisfied with the amount they've won and keep on playing until they've lost it all. Those people don't have any self control.

Someone tend to continue to gamble if he win because there isnt any risk left if he is gambling with the amount he actually won however this will lead to another tragedy that it will all be gone since the variance will be siding with the house sooner or later

How can gambling gives use the gambler hope and dream? There is no such kind if thing, you just need to win some huge jackpot to get that dream but with only hope to win I dont think you can win it mostly you will end up losing. And you will become addicted and it will ruin your life

it is simple, someone tried to bet then he wins and he definitely wants to play again to get a win, but he always lost and in the end he always wanted to recovery the defeat and difficult to stop if already addicted

gambling is only addictive to greedy people who want to keep on winning. it is wise to know when to quit in case you find yourself losing or even winning. the only problem is that no one thinks they have enough. better investing your BTC in another form if you just feel like multiplying it because betting will see you lose it. thanks

That's right, i agree, because i'm gambling too but it's just for fun and i'm not keep my mind to always win.
Investing is good advice but it's need to research first before investing, especially bitcoin investment industry. Then deleted all your gambling account if you feel want to quit it and don't open gambling site anymore.

The facts with gambling is that you will win a lot of money compared to the one you have invested in. The duration it takes to win the cash is short compared to any other form of investment. You will therefore be willing anytime to invest the little you have with the hope that you will triple the amount. Gambling is all about hope and it is always not the case that you will win on every bet that you place. The uncertainty happens and what keeps you going is the experience stories shared by people who are doing great.

Some people thinks doing gamble make their adrenaline pushed and its make them happy.
So it is not about win or lost only there is something funny when you wait the result.
And it is addicting to fun gamble.
