yeah agree with you all, because of our greedy so gambling make us addicted
fun reason on gambling is not true reason for gambling make us addicted
because gambling is risk activity, but sometimes risk activity is funny thing for some peoples
No one, yes trust me no one in this world has fun when they loose.
So, I don't understand how people have fund gambling, yes though casino games in real life like roulette may bring some fun but online paying dice how gives you fun I don't know really. Maybe it is the addiction that we think we are having fun while we are actually not.

When a person loose hopes and become lazy that always look at methods to make money by going out of the way. You will see almost all addicted gamblers started with some limited targeted money to get but when they didn't. They fell into addiction gambling is hope and every time you think I will do better performance this makes it addictive.
Addicted to gambling get started when you :

1. Did not satisfied on what you have achieved and keep playing.
2. Try to chasing the losing money , and forgot already about how dangerous it is.
3. Do gamble even with the amount that you cannot afford to lose.

That is the conclusion why gambling addicted in my point of view.

Some people are excited by just the mere loses and wins. Every person has at least one addiction in life. There are those who are addicted to cigarettes, while others are addicted to beer. Gambling is also another event that has a lot of addicts. Many of them gamble just to have fun and pass time. Others stick to gambling with hope that one day manna will fall from heaven and they will become instant billionaires.

But gambling is a different kind of addiction, it you will rate it in the scale of 1 to 10, it's probably in the 10. With being addicted to cigarettes you will only lose a penny but with gambling addiction you can lose millions and might ruin your life because of such 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?

Gambling is not addictive at all. Winning part of gambling is.  No one likes losing. Most actually hates it. So cant be really addictive with losing. But winning is addictive just simple because it is fun.

We do not like losing but gambling gives that to us most of the time. That can only be addicting to gamblers who does not want to accept their loses as they will continue to experiment on the winning method that was never invented. We cannot win against the house for sure.

Correct. If you can't control yourself when gambling - whether you are winning or losing, I highly recommend that you don't gamble at once! Why? Because that is how exactly people lose in gambling when their emotion is on top on their gambling sessions. This is really bad because when you are too emotional, you tend to do decisions that are not reasonable like betting allin with all of your hard earned money.

I think it is just common for people to involve their emotion when they gambling I think even if a person can control it the inner emotion might reflect on them, and I think other people are using a method to see their opponent emotions in a bet on a poker match this is highly use in that kind of gambling, well I can not totally say that it is not OK show your emotions when having a bet on gambling but this can be certain use against you!

Well emotions are really part of the game of gambling. Usually, it gets people's minds clouded and they end up losing everything. The key is, I think, is to know when to leave the table. Know when you lost enough or earned.

Well decision making really is the key when betting and emotion really is part of the gambling and strategic purpose for some players and now I think that there are so many ways in dealing with gambling, and I think you can do it if you are really not addicted to it cause if you are, your mind would be clouded not by your emotions but the very urge your addiction pursue!

Gambling is addicting because its something that you can play as a game and you want to win again and again plus its also that you can enjoy yourself by it so you will keep coming back.

Whether we realize it or not, when we were accustomed to gambling, our minds will be poisoned with something like this: "we can easily get money from gambling". Those sentence will always be ringing in our minds and we tend to forget the series of defeats which we find in the past. And this is what causes people who are addicted to gambling would be very difficult to detach themselves from the shackles of gambling.

That's a good point. Addiction is also one of the factors that affect why alot of people lose money in gambling. The urge is indeed strong in some that they do not know right from wrong. Gambling should be played as a profession or only for fun. It's should not be to satisfy one's addiction.

yeah agree with you all, because of our greedy so gambling make us addicted
fun reason on gambling is not true reason for gambling make us addicted
because gambling is risk activity, but sometimes risk activity is funny thing for some peoples

There is some reasons which make gambling so much addictive things the more we get greedy than we lost the control and thinking that kind gambling is very easy way to make money for our needs, so this kind of behavior is really risky and that is why we get addicted to this.

We think it's going to be easy to win every time. It's a false idea but we got it in our mind and cannot get rid of it very easy. It's very addictive too, of course.. But this false idea gets us greedy each time.
It is really not easy to win each time you play gambling, it is always depend of a game, if the game is more on strategy and you know how to play it then for sure you can earn money in a short time, but once that you just have to rely on your luck it will be hard for you to win the game.

We should choose a game that we can use our skills and that our strategy is very important, with that we can increase our winning percentage and we may end up winning in the long run. When you are using a strategy and you stick with it for sure you are not prone to being addicted in gambling.

Most gamblers that are prone to addiction are those gambling purely with their emotion and no specific strategy at all.

thats the logic there mate the more you know the gambling that you are playing the chances of winning is bigger but if just playing and only relying from your luck its not easy to win and you will keeps on chasing your loses and make it more and more.

I agree. Addiction to gambling will not lead to a better standing financially. It will just burn everything you have. No strategy gambling would term for the worse most of the time. Tho, some of them win, most of them will lose.

I agree. Addiction to gambling will not lead to a better standing financially. It will just burn everything you have. No strategy gambling would term for the worse most of the time. Tho, some of them win, most of them will lose.
For sure it will only wrecked our life in the long run we need to control this addiction knowing our limition and placing only the money that we can afford to lose will lessen our loses.

In my opinion gambling becomes addiction because of if i have been losing it make me curious and that is make me addiction of gambling.

It drags me to gamble too, but also important reason why i and other gamblers gamble is because they can earn a lot of money this way even if it's risky
The exact problem is with me also, when I quit gamble after giving some huge losses I decide that ok enough but then I think hey I ended on a loosing streak, maybe the wins were on the door knocking and that makes me bet more and more, if lost I think ok maybe next and if I win then well,who ends while winning ?
