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](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Why is it so addictive? Because gambling is a very fun activity. Many people play gambling because they want to earn a lot. Even if they always lose they mindset will tell them to continue ro play because somehow they will get back all of their winnings plus they will earn a lot. They only need to have the positive mind and ofcourse right strategy. I dont consider losing money to be a "fun" thing - dont know how you get so much money so as to waste it on gambling rather than do other stuff with it. People are greedy and they want more money form what they generally earn and so they try to gamble it and win more. It happens that people do win more but then greed takes over reasoning and they cant control their emotions which is why they lose all their balance soon enough.

Even though I gamble a lot, I have never been addicted and will not call myself an addict, I always gamble within my means and I have never borrowed money just to gamble that's really stupid and only addicted gamblers do that. No one is guaranteed to win so why borrow to gamble at all.
You mean someone who can adjust to the circumstances. Things like this must be hard to find. We know that most gambling players are desperate people. They try to put their money in for profit. Whereas the basic gambling game I think should be a pleasure.

If to borrow money to gamble, or form budget consortium for single gambler, it's a sign they've lost common sense, and this is severe addiction category. I also see this scheme in form of telegram bot, basically just wanting to collect fresh money to gamble, but the future will be destroyed because addiction nature will not be endless if it doesn't try to manage it with positive intentions.

It's so addictive for the same reason investing and reading about bitcoin is. It makes us dream of big wins and gives us an adrenaline rush when we see how much profit/loss we are in.
Researchers have actually shown that the same areas of the brain are stimulated when people day trade as when they gamble, the same for bankers doing investments and stuff. Its the rush and the dream that makes it all addicting.
the dream of winning big and all those possible reason and ways on how to make it successful as gamblers really aiming to hit a jackpot and keeps on trying everything that they know but suddenly still losing it back because of greediness inside their mind, trying to make it much bigger winnings instead of being contented with small one.

Whereas the basic gambling game I think should be a pleasure. Yes, some studies have found that gambling addiction is more prevalent among poor people - for them it looks like an easy solution to their financial problems, it's usually combined with superstitions that they can somehow catch the luck by betting on some "magical" numbers or in their "lucky day". But in reality it only makes them more poor, some people even lose their homes and families. Gambling is not a job, it's not investing, people should understand that no one is going to give them money for free.

That is what I have experienced and I think of the same thing back then however right now Im a different man and think differently. There are so many people out there that is still think the same that is why they cant stop their addiction yet. Im lucky to overcome my addiction although it is not complete but better than previously

Even though there are many examples of people who become impoverished by gambling, but people never feel discouraged. Some people want to achieve success instantly.

It's a good thing if ever you never been addicted to gambling. With my experience, gambling is addictive because it is a normal way of having fun. When you started to win big money that will make you think about it again and again so in the end that is going to give you a good insight that it will be your lucky day again that is leading you to addiction.

That's what I thought also, that it's a great way to have fun but definitely, control your emotions. That's the problem that you can have, especially if you experience a lot of winning, just like you said.

It is not a place for you to have fun. If you want to have fun while playing then the only way for you to have fun is to win. We know that we cant win all the time and we are bound to lose. So how will you be having fun when you lose? you are losing real money everytime you lose and that wont make me happy

Some gamblers can afford to lose those money, in fact, some people have their money saved for gambling.

I think we must consider gambling to be a mode of entertainment and not as a source of earning. It is not meant to make people rich - expect the owners of course who run the business. Hence if one can control their emotions and not go beyond some limits then it wont be disastrous for their money. Most of the gambling addicts are running as slaves of greed truly speaking.

I think people are addicted to gambling mostly because they think they will be able to make a lot of money quickly from gambling without much work. In fact, this would not be possible because if we did not work we would have nothing. They play gambling, they lose, they want to earn back that money and more and more want to earn money from gambling. Gradually, they become seriously addicted to gambling. Gambling is just a entertainment game, it depends on the luck of each person, do not be too addicted to gambling

Gmblimg is so addicting if you have no limitations with your self. Gambling is consider as vices and vuces is are how to be stop if you will put it as a part of your life gambling shouldn't be consider as a hobby. It should be consider just for fun and will be play occasionally.

Yes, at first all think that they will be able to earn a lot of money there without much effort and it drags on each time giving hope that this time it will be exactly lucky.

You have pretty much summed it up why most people are addicted to gambling but i think mostly its always the money we lose that keeps us there as we fail to let go and keep playing in the hope of winning back what we have lost and gradually grows into a cycle.

I believe they are obsessed with the idea and not addicted to it. The main reason why the gamble regularly so that they wont miss out. I believe gambling is cause by too much dependent in gambling to alter their mood. Meaning, they make gambling as way to make them feel good without knowing that they had lost their ability to control the urge to be entertained by gambling.

Gambling and trading is very similar, theres been cases of rogue traders who basically cross the line and gamble money they shouldn't. Its not that rare, there is a chemical response that is normal for humans in risk reward scenarios. That is the part people can become addicted to, some more so then others but 'getting away with it' or the thrill of a win applies to anyone I guess. I think its naturally there as a reward for hunting food in our earlier more basic survival as a human race, its of benefit to take risks but now with money it can also be a negative if people dont realise they are getting too high off excessive risks.
