Besides gambling is a fun activity

gambling is definitely not a fun activity, I dont feel fun with loosing my money or even when I win. I take this thing seriously because it involves money. It is crazy to see someone actually feels fun about losing his money, this is probably the dumbest thing that I have ever read with the exception that money is never an issue for you

Yes I do agree, but sometimes it brings fun if you win and out of fun felt actually, if you lose the money you've won. Money matters most to me and its not easy to handle that money being wasted just for fun of gambling. If someone is addicted to it that reason kept on happening again and again you lose for that money that you always expected to cope up from your previews loses to be won by chance again.

Other than fun am sure we all want our bragging rights to show off on how good we are at something! If that's not it, then most likely  just trying to find social ground to make new friends.

Well, that's true. It's also to show how lucky you are and how your strategy works, that's the best thing about it. It's not just the entertainment, it's how you deal with people. But those are not the things why I think people get addicted to gambling. It's how they want to earn more. GREEDINESS

but for some people gambling is fun, because gambling is a game however. the pleasure of each person is different and for gambling addicts, gambling is a pleasure.

Ya i like playing poker but not use any real money its just for fun, still its addictive and when i won i feel satisfied and when losing especially after big win, its so frustasing you know

I agree, the fact that you can money quickly in gambling makes people want to have more. They are not easily contented if they already win some amounts. And when they lose they can't just accpet it easily and try to recover it until they just lose more. Greediness always give bad result. That behavior from some people should be remove or learn to be controlled.

- Gambling will not be happy if you are too focused on money problems. Before playing, you should determines that you play because fun or because money

Some people feel fun while gambling and some want to get money, although people say they have fun however we all share the same motive. We want to get money as well however it is not necessary as it is only a bonus if I win then it is all good . For some people, they play really to win and not anything else than that

I am sure majority of the gamblers are playing gambling only for money including me. But i suggest, if we win than good but if we lose, than relax yourself and feel fun and in this time, remember that gambling has a meaning of fun, and entertainment. Than i think we could adjust our sadness. But i believe gambling is not addicted, only we are greedy to demand money from gambling in everytime.

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?

The reason why is it so addictive, because it gives satisfaction to the gamblers, and once it fulfill the gambler needs of course they will always look after it. Just like a vitamins that needs our body, we look for it for us to maintain our healthy body condition. Same thing with the situation of the addict gambler.

The dopamine in our brains makes us feel satisfied and if we feel that, it tends for us to be more into it. If it gets worse, it could serve as a point where greediness will get in the way. I like your analysis about vitamins in our body. It's a way that we should always look out for ourselves and because no one would ever take care of you but yourself.

- I know we will be very happy if we can make money while gambling, but making money from gambling is difficult, and nobody satisfied with the money they earn, they always to want more and more, result is they lose all because greed. We will really not happy if we do try to continue to gamble with the purpose of making money, I hope we can play comfortably gambling because gambling is a game , and games are used for entertainment and relaxation

Many factors can contribute to a gambling addiction, for maybe prime one is desperation for money, the desire to experience thrills and highs, the social status associated with being a successful gambler, and the entertaining atmosphere of the mainstream gambling scene.

Off course there are some side factors on this matter, for example once a gambling addiction takes hold, breaking the cycle is difficult. Severe addictions can take hold when someone feels desperate financially and wants to make back what they have lost. Once the person finally wins, while they may end up collecting a massive amount of money from that win, it is rarely enough to cover what has already been lost.

From some articles i have read most gamblers never even come close to breaking even after they won big time.

Quick money, you nailed it buddy!!!, that's the usual cause of gambling addiction, you tasted how to make easy money thru gambling, you'll love it for sure, sooner or later you'll keep on repeating it even if the result is losing.... A gambler if he doesn't experience any good in gambling, they won't be coming back to it... First time gamblers never bet that big, so it won't hurt too much to quit, but if he wins on his first attempts, it will surely make him coming back for more...  Smiley

But I have saw that even those people are addicted to gambling who do not win money in gambling and who know well that they are not that much expert to win some money in gambling so with that I think they are gambling and addicted to gambling because of some enjoyment involved in gambling.

Yes some entertainment is involved in attracting people to gambling but it also involve the chase of money some people who lose again and again and still they gamble because they are chasing their lost money and they looks at other gamblers who earn then they think that they will also win one day in gambling like them.

Those aims cant really be avoided on most gamblers who do play because motives on making money on gambling is very high specially on our expectations but as we know gambling is designed for its players to lose money and if you are lucky enough you might won decent profits but mostly on rare cases.

Besides gambling is a fun activity

gambling is definitely not a fun activity, I dont feel fun with loosing my money or even when I win. I take this thing seriously because it involves money. It is crazy to see someone actually feels fun about losing his money, this is probably the dumbest thing that I have ever read with the exception that money is never an issue for you
lol you can not see something on one side , it might dumb based on your perspective.
but not necessarily it is same way for other people , you have to see on the other side.
you have to make a friend with someone who really don't care about money as they have everything already!
- Gambling will not be happy if you are too focused on money problems. Before playing, you should determines that you play because fun or because money
- I know the things related to money are often very sensitive, but you also should not tell other people crazy or stupid. If you say gambling is not fun, you can not play. But if you play, you should enjoy the feeling fun while playing. Not to judge others when you are not in their position
There's a lot of people who keep smile even they lost a lot of money.
Why they can do that? Because they really gamble responsibly, they only lost money that they can afford to lose.
So no problem! The problem here is when people still cannot gamble responsibly, and keep playing even it was hot money that urgently needed in the near future.

Hmm i agree it make sense, if its super rich people than losing small sum of their money is small matter for them. Because they gambling just for fun not for earning easy money lol
