Gambling is simply addicting because of the fact that its very enjoying and its a game, with games you stay playing it over and over and not stop because you are loving it and that is also making you addicted in my eyes.
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Gambling is simply addicting because of the fact that its very enjoying and its a game, with games you stay playing it over and over and not stop because you are loving it and that is also making you addicted in my eyes.

Entertainment is one of the reason why gambling is very addicting. But with the enjoyment it is together along with losing your money.
And instead of having fun, it comes that you want to get returns of your lose.

because people only want to get big amount of money and gambling is the easiest one to do it . 

Everybody wants to get big amounts of money but some people are seeing to get it in the most dangerous way possible--which they think is the easiest way there is. You need to have tons of luck with you in order to win the jackpot of your life.

Everyone needs a big amount that is for sure who wouldn't want that kind of amount that fast? but the thing about gambling that every person is getting aside are they think that gambling will be very easy to win in their own perspective but the risk involving gambling are right there in their faces but they are not seeing it because of the instant money they are thinking.
ya some people only think about instan money, when they can win  they want more ,  when they lose , they think how yo cover their lost , and then we know that they're already addicted in gambling

People will always be like that, they will always become greedy because of the free money gambling can offer but they haven't realized the danger it can give to them because they only think about getting a lot of money from gambling.

Gambling sux!

nice reply to the thread brother.

It totally answered the "question", By the way how can you say that, did you ever tried it.

Didn't you find any fun playing for gambling?

As most of people here love gambling, and reading a comment like yours is too different from the post here in this thread.

By the way that is your reaction, so I respect that.

To me it feels like people see a way to generate a lot of money and so they gamble and keep on gambling until they win.
They won't stop until they hit jackpot. Problem is 99% don't make the jackpot phase.

It's as easy as that.

actually the gambling addiction comes when people start losing money.

because most of them, when they lose money they try their best to win it back so they chase their losses until they are out of money and even if they can they will deposit more money to continue chasing and that is why they get addicted.

Yeah you pointed out some of the reasons why gamblers always comes back for more.

chasing for the lose amount is one of it, another is that winning before and wanted to win again so they come back to play and become greedy and after that if they lose it will comeback on what you had just said that chasing for the loss amount of bitcoin.

But for some it is addicting because of the fun, excitement and thrill.

I think a percentage of 79% is a good estimate about gambling that doesn't make the jackpot you can not say that about 1% is the only winners in gambling, there will be a winning percentage of people making a jackpot, and some people that are winning in the first attempt but become over confident about himself that is why lost all of his bitcoin I think you need to include it too.

Yeah may be it is true that people always chase their lose but doesnt mean that it will become an addict, unless after you win it you still come back and play again and again, some people only want to get back what they loss and wont come back after that but most of them will come back and this is we called addiction

While that may not lead to addiction. It's still not such a good thing to observe. Don't chase of your losses. Or you will end up losing more than what you've already given away. Just accept the fact that it's already gone.

Gambling is something logical and easy to explain. And if treat it not like magical solution for your money problems - because with that mindset you will have even bigger problems.
But rather  like hobby when you potentially can earn or lose some money. And never go all in, unless you are fine with the negative outcome.

Gambling is designed that way. It is designed around a basic human emotion "Greed" the fact that many of the games are fun makes it even more attractive to our emotions. Everything about the system is designed to make you want to gamble. That is why it is so addictive.

yeah, that is one of the most addictive thing about gambling. when you combine gambling with something so exciting like sports, matches, and many other exciting things you will only be feeding the hunger for gambling and the addiction is getting bigger because of that.

I think, a person experiencing an addiction because they have a goal to earn profits in gambling and when they can't get an advantage in gambling, the more intrigued him with gambling and gambling always perform repeatedly.

i think it is the most shortcut way to earn money that is why people think that they will won the money in a very very short time. but it is a game of chance. they won for one time but other time they loose their all money again. that is what make them even more eager and they tray and tray again to win but this cycle continue for ever and now one can say that they won or loose in gambling.

There is chance to win a lot money so players get started to have fun there but big winning change their way to gamble, no doubt any unexpected win can make them addicted even most of people lost very quickly right after the winning and than they keep trying to chase their loses and this thing make them get addictive.
Yes exactly when they chase their losses they start loosing more and more.
Once they are in profit with their wins, they start to think that its the time to make profit, while actually is the time to leave gambling and quit.
