Why is gambling so addicting?

[erwin45hacked]

Our chances to win under the situation is very slim, we can only win when we are extremely lucky. I have done this before, I gamble when I was drunk and unfortunately I was busted in less than an our, I realized I was not doing base on game plan anymore and I just follow my emotions whatever it dictates me.

The chances are not slim in fact if you play dice you could set the limit to almost 98 % win chance however you are not going to win everytime especially in long term because there is a house edge in every game, so realizing this people should just go with the flow , it is either you lose or you win big thats it

That's why the chances are slim because we are talking about long term journey, by setting 98% winning percentage every time it does not guarantee an automatic win but I agree we can win most of the time, but doing it all the time still does not give success as if it's successful we are already using that method and we become rich easy in gambling.

to me when people who become disappointed from every side, then they consider gambling one of the shortest way of making money therefore they try again again to make money in a short period of time but for every time the remain disappointed.

Yeah, this is really happening in other people who really wants to get some profit in a very short time, most especially when they badly needed to have money and they are so desperate to win just to make money, some of them are winning but some of them gets another kind of losing money.

Yes very true, a lot of gamblers trying to get as much money in a short time with gambling. Even many who gamble all day from morning till night, put all of their money as bets just to gamble. And those who like it are those who are addicted to gambling. Spend money as bets in a day is a sign that the person has an addiction. Indeed, the appeal of gambling is very large, gambling promise riches, that is why people gamble.

Also read something and watch last night some interesting documentary about addictions on tv i will try to bring some quotes from that.

Scientists have identified two brain areas that were highly active when gamblers felt the urge to gamble, with the insula and nucleus accumbens areas the same trigger areas for drug addiction cravings and “reward sensations”.It was also found a link with the brain’s frontal lobe, which may help to control impulses with a weaker connection between this region and the nucleus accumbens associated with a more intense urge to gamble.The connections may also be affected by mood — and be further weakened by stress, which may be why gambling addicts relapse during difficult periods in their life.

In this particular research they use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to scan the brains of 19 gambling addicts who were shown images that included a roulette wheel and betting shop. These images triggered high activity and craving in the same part of the brain as alcohol and drug addicts. Also in second part of research when same images shown to non-addiction patients showed no activity in that part of the brain.

You will become addictive once you experienced the so-called "beginner's luck" or early big-win. But then after that, you will try to re-coup what you have lost and ended up an addict.

Not really if you know what you are doing since the beginning and you tried gambling first time with a long term commitment in your mind. So you already have a plan what you will do (I am talking about sports betting) and you will put aside a monthly bankroll and play only with it. If you go out of the borders ,addiction is all you will get and it will bad for your money and health.

That is so silly statement right there, gambling is not a needs that you should consider to put in some amount every month . One thing for sure you are going to lose most of the time so there isnt any need for you to spend a fixed amount every month to throw into one of those gambling sites, even if you win in the end you will lose just alot more

Gambling is very addicting because of the fact that its very enjoying and you can do a lot of things too with gambling, its very nice to do it plus its sometimes profitable.

Gambling is very addicting because of the fact that its very enjoying and you can do a lot of things too with gambling, its very nice to do it plus its sometimes profitable.

True, we are enjoying on how gambling really works and even you are not that going to focus with profits in gambling. But if you are lucky enough then you have a chance of earning some good amount. And that is what a gambler keeps on gambling again and again when he tries to win some amount whether it is big or small.

The reason why gambling is addicting is that it has rewards, anything having rewards for people becomes addictive no matter if that is costing them even more but people like getting rewarded and i have observed that myself.

The reason of most of the gamblers think that they are lucky enough

This is nonsense, no one thìnks that he is lucky enough to win. Actually it is your curiousity to test your luck or either your greed that wants to win more and apart from that I dont really see how you could be thinking that you are lucky today and might win anything from the house, that is just nonsense things to think about

People want to win again and again and keep coming back, its all about the money and the greediness...

and for every time they go back with a lost and again they urge to win and return their money back, but over all they remain in lost and it make them addicted,

Additionally it is mainly the adrenaline etc.

It actually shows that there are some idiots in gambling. When someone play with few cents and want to win millions of dollars then that is madness. Some people actually realize this and when they play with millions of dollar and got few thousands from gambling, they call it enough and move out of it

It's an opposite mentality for the poor and rich gamblers, most of us are poor and we can only afford to spend a little portion of our income and yet we are aiming for a bigger return, and it constitutes addiction as it will created desperation still doing it with less chances to win.

No, I do not think rewards is the main reason cause all addictive problem in gambling. While gambling, people usually believe that they can make fast money and as long as they keep playing, they will be rich. However, it is not true about gambling. Most of the gamblers lose in their first shot and this will absolutely make them want to recover the loss. That's why they will soon get addicted to gambling

Said in another manner,always bet what you can afford to lose and control yourself,that's the key to ending in profit,everything else is just a path that will sooner or later lead you to loss

The most suitable recommendation when you go to a site and gamble is that when you actually deposit into that site then you should have consider that your deposit is lost therefore even if you actually lose it then you probably will not get emotional with it , if you actually ended up winning then probably it is as your extra bonus

Probably correct, I agree that when you start entering gambling and start to deposit money, accept the fact that, that money you deposited is already lost so that you will not hurt if you get really lose in the game.

Yeaa it might could work , to make you gambling with feel nothing to lose, so no pressure there.
Gambling with the amount that you really need it always make you nervous and in the end you just lost it all in no time.
Addiction come from some feeling like that, so just avood it and enjoy the game.

However the thrill will be lessened and slowly you can lose your interest in gambling which is not what you want to happen. It's alright to think that you can win some money and enjoy at the same time, and it's okay to feel upset when you lose as long as you will accept it in time.

gambling really always surprising , yesterday i won 2 bitcoin for playing blackjack and some sportsbetting events.
but earlier about few hours ago, i almost lost it all play back in same games.
the greedy make me always come back to play, as simply as like that talking about an addiction.

Yes the excitement is making a gambler to make himself addicted with it. And it is no doubt that they will just keep on playing again and again because they think that it is going to be a good day for them.

Usually greed excitement and joy all 3 when combine are deadly
Its good to win but i dont gamble in casinos reason is simple house always wins, you can count card but in the end they will bust you
Also betting on sport is better for me place one two bets on some game or games then wait you will and you lose this is good.

What makes a gambler gamble again and again is his pocket, if he has enough money he would never gamble actually .. its just the greed that leads to gambling and even wrong activities.

How we can know if we are lucky if we don't play? The more we play the more chances of winning and to have luck some of experts or losers telling that playing in the long run might lost us. That's why they are stopping playing gambling You can't say that there are some idiots in gambling they're just being greed thats why they are getting lost.

[Lahmar]

in my opinion the reason of getting addicted on gambling is the winning and losing because if you win a bit of money you will like to multiply that many times and when you lose you would like to get what you lost so you keep on gambling and that make you an addict and every gambler experienced this
