It's addicting because it makes people think that money can be earned easily even if for just one round if they are really lucky then all the money that they lost will be earn again. They are seeing that if other people can make it then why not them so they will try and try again until such time when they don't have anything to gamble anymore that's why many people are in debt because of that glint of hope that they can win again all they lost. It's all about mindset viewing gambling as entertainment instead of way of getting rich so that they will not be broke in the end.

Gambling is so addicting because of the fact you can win a lot of money fast and people think they can do it but you need pure luck to succeed of course and most under us do not have this luck.

I mostly find it funny to see this people gamble for profit but they only will lose money so they will do the opposite.

This is  just a  normal thing  on  gambling  field  where those  gamblers or players  do tend  to aim  on gaining profits  but  in the end they are suffering  huge losses because   profits on gambling isnt guaranteed at all as  long you dont luck  on  it then for sure its a sure  lose.
if we keep chasing for big profits it will turned in the other way around, that's the problem behind gambling we always want to win
but we ended losing.
yeah , it is a luck game , and everyone lost his money for his greediness of getting profit without hardwork . still you can make some profit if you gamble with small btc amount and have stretagy of house edge limit .

Strategy  against  the  house  doesnt exist at  all, it may work for  a short time but still you would  get busted in the end  and  all of those   winnings  you saved  would be gone in an instant. We  should  not really be greedy at all if we dont like to suffer such things.
I agree with your statement, there's no way we can win against the house, a game with house edge only gives us a little chance and that chance is just a temporary win in gambling.
well knowing how to play against the house will give you some advantage just take little earnings and stop in that way you will able to earn.

Yeah it is addicting because you can make much money in a small amount of time with almost no effort by just playing some simple games.
People keep thinking that they are going to win the jackpot one day and keep gambling.

i think gambling addiction is usually one of two mainly things, knowledge that you have won before, and can gain again
People thin that they can win with gambling and that is why they keep gambling on and on until they win again. It is also not much that you have to do.
The fact that you can play games and win money is enough reason for some people to gamble.

Why is gambling so addicting? Just because gambling could make you happy. People always get addicted of some thing that make them happy.  But something addicting always have a bad cuases
the pleasure given by gambling is that it is only temporary pleasure. The pleasure we get when we get an advantage in the game. However, if we lose then the pleasure is gone. it will make someone motivated to do gambling again to regain those losses. here was the danger of gambling addiction.

Therefore it is just right to put only an amount that we can afford to lose so that when we lose we can easily move on and in overall the job in gambling will be felt rather than the loneliness of losing, that is the secret to last in gambling as in the first place it is designed for entertainment not for profit purpose in favor of the gamblers.

people always gamble in delusion , they want an instant money.
with this mindset treat gambling as money maker gambling make them have an addiction.
as the games itself quiet funny and make them so comfortable make money while they just playing a game.

I think the most in favor here is the owner of the gambling sites or a casino, because as a gambler you can never really predict the out come of your bet, even if gambling is really for entertainment there are some gamblers that are thinking that gambling is like a job for them of a profession, and in my opinion that is a wrong statement, because there is no real favor for the gamblers in every bet!

Basically, when we play gambling continuously and be a part of life so one day came when gambler become addicted person, So always take a first step with carefully and i suggest for everyone play gambling but not play it in a routine wise, because that way become dangerous for us and it is a seine of addicting.

Gambling becomes addicting when you are winning specially if it is your first time of playing it. Because you are going to think that you are lucky on it and you will start on betting all money that you have because you are thinking that you are going to win always because you thought that you are good at it. But did you win after betting a huge amount of BTC in a row? No, right? Because you can never win against the house specially when you bet a really huge amount because the house already planned it for everyone who plays gambling.

It is! Usually persons that are lucky at the beginning, very easy are pulled in to the gambling whirl. If someone is playing for long time, for sure can confirm, that any games at the beginning are giving small rewards, just to show that winning is easy. After time, and when you lose enough, you want to recuperate your loses.. The only way is bet more! .. because it is easy Wink Finally you are in trap! It is just beginning of addiction!

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?
There are Two Reasons Why Gambling is Too Addictied:-
1) The User Who Do Gambling For Fun Here the Fun Makes Gambling Addicted....
2) and The User Who Do Gambling For Profit Or Making Money Motive then the Hope Of Winning a Big Amount Makes Gambling Addicted.....

Yes they are thinking that they can win and try it over and over, the fact is that it gets addicted due to that and people also get greedy and want to win their money back, what of course never is gonna happen.

There has been a case study whereby they interview gamblers. It is found out that if you win on the first time, the likelyhood that you will become a frequent gambler is a lot higher than those who lose on their first time. So winning on the first time may not be that good new overall.

but i think that a continue playing of gambling do not make person addicted, a person become addicted because he is always in struggle to make more and more money and in this he invest more and more which make him addicted, if you play gambling in a regular routine and investing a limited amount then you do not become addicted.

Having a chance to win great amount in gambling is the one why people are becoming addicted into it and once they have experience to win already.

They are going to crave again to keep on gambling because they have already tasted the winnings of gambling. BUt if they are able to lose.

They are going to keep on wanting to recover their losses.

That's exactly what is happening with people who are not living a comfortable life, they are mostly the victim of wrong interpretation of gambling because they think that they can learn the method to make easy money in gambling without carefully analyzing the pros and cons of gambling.

oh well having easy money is the major factor that attract those people to trust their fate and play gambling, we know it well that at first casino will allow us to win and allow us to enjoy but in the long run we will be out of luck and lose allowing us to keep coming back expecting that we will able to regain that loses.

It's because gambling is like drugs, you always want more on gambling even you are win or lose. The feel when you have a bet and the sweat and your heartbeat makes gambling become fun.
Really? gambling is not like drugs but you are having fun playing gambling , gambling is hobby and like sports that your mind really think and then follow your instinct but im not sure that you are going to win straight evendo your going to hard playing. but gambling for me is really but and really addicted.

in some manner you are correct its just like a game that you focus your mind and dedicate your self the only problem with this addiction is you are using money and losing it especially big amount is not funny and trying to regain it back would turn really to addiction.
