Not really. Many people around the world try gambling or even playing the lottery. Most of them don't get addicted. Only a small number become addicts.

Yup! not in the lottery, there are not a number of people that are getting addicted with it but there are a few "just a few!" but the casino gambling the type of game in it can make a person addicted, and I think there will not been a much record of addiction with a person because an addicted person will not realized that his addicted to gambling.


ye before getting into any field, training is compulsory for that, we should have to keep in our mind every possibility that have a chace to face us in that particular field, the same is the case with gambling, in there we have to keep in our mind that there are chances of winning money but also have chances to lose so that the other get the chance of victory, and also we have to keep in our mind the gambling as entertainment after that we will not be broken.


The term addiction in gambling are now globaly right now because you can now play gambling online, and Gamblers can have a problem without being totally out of control. Problem gambling is any gambling behavior that disrupts your life. If you’re preoccupied with gambling, spending more and more time and money on it, or gambling despite serious consequences, you have a gambling problem.

In a short time it is a No No, because gambling is too risky I think the only persons that profit but not turn rich is the lucky ones! it is impossible to be rich in gambling even the most well known personalities that are getting in gambling well they are already rich in the first place.

Because gambling can really make a person addicted to it that is a fact and the booming number of gambling sites are increasing and people can not control their addiction because Gambling addiction is sometimes referred to as a "hidden illness" because there are no obvious physical signs or symptoms like there are in drug or alcohol addiction.

The main problem with gambling is the losing side. When you lose you want a revanche or in gambling terms to win your money back.
So you keep playing and playing and losing and losing more.

yeah, and for that they do not device any strategy only they play again and again, they should have to wait for tomorrow, as on the next day they will be fresh and they can have more energy both physical and mental and can have a good chance to earn their money.

Having physical or mental energy has nothing to do in winning on gambling. Gambling dice or plinko are all luck based game, and no amount of physical energy can change the roll of a dice. If your unlucky you will lose, if not you'll win. Only, house edge makes it harder for you to win. So, to avoid losing, don't gamble.

Gambling results an everlasting impression on someone the more he plays.
Moreover it amplifies the urge to gamble more if he tends to lose more than winning.
That's why you should cap your finance to a certain extent before considering to stop gambling.

Yup, these same things that make a person experience addiction to play gambling, because their mind is already planted with enough good things to those of excessive gambling will do when they get a defeat and this will continue if they do not immediately realize it. fix Intention to conduct gambling, before gambling your harness.

Well in the first thing that you have a knowledge about gambling that gambling can be like this and that, and gambling can make you profit, if it all will be planted to you mind then you gamble with thinking about all this things then you might become very sorry for your self in experiencing the nightmares in playing it, but then again gambling has a percentage of doing this things and it is a risk to take!

Yes it is true that gambling is a risk to take but you need to be careful when you are going to bet because this will attract you more if you lose not win because every time you played you will slowly get addicted to it, first that they will let you win to win some and after that slowly kill all of your money, thats why you really need to control yourselves when you are gambling

~snip~

If a gambler has a target amount with his bets, he will surely won't stop betting unless he gets what he wants. But unfortunately, he/she just ends up having more and more loss than before. Thus, making his/her target amount more and more.

Some people really associated gambling in their life (including me before). The first thing in the morning that I do is make myself a coffee. I get bored when I just look outside and just simply drink my coffee. Because of that, I thought of playing while drinking coffee. And that's what I did. It became my morning habit to gamble while drinking coffee.
I think for mankind keeping target is not good in the gambling games , but we have to keep a limit of time for us, so with that we will not be addict to these games and we can find some time to earn from other sources also.

Gambling can be very addicted and this already has been mentioned by all kind of people, its of course true no doubts about that by the way.
I always through it was caused by a combo of two reasons and that is profit and the enjoying factor.
These two factors makes it so hard to stop with gambling in my eyes.
But those people who are in search of profit in those games can not find any relief and enjoyment in there, but will face tension and will be happy only if they find a victory in their life in the field of gambling. This continuous search for an impossible thing, leads to addiction after certain amount of time.

I don't believe that "gambling" is addictive by nature....No more than I believe that "work" is addictive by nature.  It are those people who have predetermined addictive personalities which find some things addictive....It is not the activity that's addictive, it's the person who participates in the activity who's addictive.  Anything can be addictive because some people are just addicts....For example, there are many who cannot stay away from crypto-currency....they go nights without sleeping, eating, or socializing because they can't get away from their computer long enough to be normal....It's the people, not the activity!

It's more on what a gambling would bring to people's life that make it addicting. If one thing offers you extraordinary happiness when experiencing it then people would usually try to experience and if they had a good experience they do it again and again. Most of the gambling addicted are poor people who gamble for fortune, they don't usually satisfied themselves because of their ambitions to get rich the fastest way.

Indeed these people that are gambling for profit do not enjoy it, they are just greedy and want to win as much as possible.
Of course this is not possible with gambling but some people think it is and stay gambling.
You have to kinds of people, one of them is addicted by enjoying gambling and the other kind is addicted because they get blind because of the profit and money you can win.

That's the problem when one make gambling as a source of income, they want to earn fast by betting on high odds without realizing their winning probability. And then if they lost they chase their losses cause human are greed by nature. By doing it regularly they become addicted to it and time will come they can longer leave it.

I think its the other way around. If you consider gambling as a source of income and not just for entertainment, you will be a professional gambler. And you will be wiser on your bets and will not fall for high odds. You will be playing safe to ensure a better chance of winning and a steady source of income. You will not be like an amateur gambler who'll bet on a whim. But you will study and consider every bet for their chances of winning.

There will be a lot of people that is addicted to gambling and the reason is that people cant control themselves and they are also not realizing that they are losing so much money.
And that is the bad thing that they are going to realize it too late.

Some of those addicted ones don't care that their losing money, they just want to have fun. There are also others that chases their loss, this will only lead to a big loss of money. They got addicted because they want to earn money fast and quick.

well some of them are so used to gambling that it is part of their lifestyle. it is like taking away internet from you and you will feel uncomfortable and may find ways to get back online. so to change that habit is really not very easy and in fact may need lot of supports from loves one.

Yes Gambling is risky but not anyone knows how would a gambler gets addicted to it or when will they will get addicted well I think it will depend on the situation, and you can never really tell if a person is really addicted cause they will act like their usual.

You guys realize this requires a complex answer involving how your brain works. It is about experiencing pleasure tied with learning and memory in your brain regions like the amygdala and hippocampus, which is part of the reward system, along with releasing dopamine and other neurotransmitters. I don't want to get into details you guys can google it, however the main point is, scientist classify gambling as an addiction along with other pleasurable activities like sex, even shopping for some people, it is not just drugs that you can be addicted to that was thought way back in the day.
