Human beings have different forms of addiction in day to day life. Everyone is addicted to an activity that he or she obtains pleasure while doing it. Some are addicted to cigarettes while others are addicted to beer. Some are addicted to sex while others are addicted to gambling. Therefore, it is the pleasure that is obtained while gambling that makes people be addicted to it.

Then I think the urge in playing games like this is like cigar or beer that people who's getting addicted to it in a form of self satisfaction and sometimes having so much problem and this type of things is the way they escape it, well that is being addicted to something is!

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?

it is only because of that one time win.

you win once and after that you will be trying day after day to win again but after awhile you are just making up for the big losses that you have sustained!
of course it is an addiction, sometimes we did not feel, if we are addicted to gambling,
if we are already feeling the win in the betting, we will try again, and again.
it may cause addiction

You are right indeed. You can indeed get a lot of money and fast money with it, but then you also need luck.
Many times you will lose more money than you win.

I think gambling is so addictive because people love to do it. They also think that you can win a lot of money, but that's actually not true.
They realize until later that they have spent more money than they thought.

Yes you are very right. gambling makes all people addicted to always do so. Many people have the idea that gambling is quick to get huge profits, it is a statement that is true, But it also has a negative impact is so great, that you can lose all your funds if you do not have an experience or a good strategy for gambling.

true. in fact they do not see the risk. he had been blinded by wishful thinking for big profits in gambling.
I do not see addict love gambling, he only affected with a win and a big profit

Gambling is so addicting, you need to control yourself. Sometimes I feel like if I don't have enough income I could find myself drowning in this addiction. I made a lot of mistakes during my gambling career before but luckily I learned from my mistakes and never bet more than I can afford to anymore. It's a slow process, you see you can't get everything you want with gambling money.
Sometimes you lose big and try to cover up your losses. That's the biggest mistake, you shouldn't play for covering your losses or you end up as a broke man. Don't let feelings confuse you, always know where to stop either you win or you lose.
Try to enjoy the game, don't play for living. I know some professional gamblers who plays for living and earn very good amounts but I know how they put in effort to do that. Especially poker type of games. You need a lot of skills and experience for that too. In the end some types of gambling could be so addictive, you have to know the limits.

Most of the people start gambling has a fun but slowly they will fall in love with gambling because they think they can get fast and easy money. But in reality very difficult to make regular income from gambling and most of us will realize it very late after losing all our money.

greed and stupidity of human know no limit, they're bottomless, and sadly self control does have limit, so does luck. the fight is unfair, and hard.

gambling gives you the sense that you are going to win big time and will give you the opportunity to earn easy money,that is how everyone starts doing this shit, but the more time you spend more the money you loose and that is the fact.

This is true. People can win a lot of money from gambling but sure there is a risk, higher risk means higher gain. Thats why you need to believing in some luck, this luck will take you in some profit if you keep on trying it. Unless you are not lucky enough and you keep on playing it, this will end you in losing all your balance. You need to control yourself if you dont want to have a big lose

Yeah and some players are just doing this for fun. It will all depend on you.

If you are an earner through gambling be sure that you are ready for the risk.

If you are just playing for fun then sit down and relax and play.

People like to do. And if you gamble the fact remains very addictive. Because I think that many people suffer from it.
If you gamble then they let you think you can earn lots of money with it. But I guess that is not so clear.
many victims suffering caused by gambling.
The suffering of the victims can be reduced to us to prevent it

It's because of the big high you get when you win.  And when you lose you want to make that money back by betting more than the amount you lost to recover it.  It's a vicious cycle unfortunately.  thefeels

People see gambling as a kind of game I think. But this is actually so.
Because you can also earn money with it. And they like to do. Everyone thinks it's fun to do.

you're right, the main factor that makes people gamble is to win. if you gamble and win then you will be interested to try it again until your money runs out if you do not control yourself

They think they can get rich with it but it is not.

Gambling is very addictive and that is by multiple reasons, the first one is that its fast money you will gain. The second is that its enjoying for hours.
The last reason is because people want to win their losses back and make profit.
