I think more than that. not all gamblers are gambling for the money. some gamblers do it just for the sake of the fun they get when they gamble. there are people who think about profits first and those people are the ones who most of the time would get their heart broken and then delve deeper to chase losses. there are also those who see gambling as just a way to release stress.

Gabmen nice said, especially last part on this. Some doctor even say that it is good way for it. Off course still large number of gamblers are into this for the money and profit, or they dont know any other way or they dont want to try anything else. They see this a way of fast income, it is it is also a very fast way of losing money.

Yes, gambling is a good stress-relieving instrument and when it is used for that purpose it is mostly successful. But when people start using it the wrong way, namely for making money, they get into troubles.

Does not mean you always playing gambling you are already addicted this is just for us to spend time when we don't have something to do or the rest we want to have a good money comeback when we do gambling ofcourse by chasing our lose maybe this is why geting to addictive but it can be avoided when you move on and play on another day.
no matter what condition , gambling itself addictive just like drugs . sooner or later when you gamble frequently there would be a feeling you have to go back and play for another session to give a shot , who knows you would get luck and won some nice amount. it's always happened and ringing in your head.
If you count how much the player lost in all his life of gambling, and how much he won. Then it seems to me that you will lose much more. And then you can draw conclusions, What is the use of what he is playing, Of course it can be Excitement as a pleasure, but nothing more.
i have so many times heard about that excuses , it's ordinary . and extraordinary things make it so addicting for some people are due its easy money maker characteristic . most of them who go to a casino to gamble aren't for entertainment/pleasure but pushed by economic needs and choose a fast way (they think) , most of them too ended so bad lost money.

I'm in 400,000 euros debt , dont help me , i rather die

For me the purpose of playing gambling is indeed for fun. Because when we are charged for profit then we can feel depressed. And it affects our emotions, the effect of addiction only applies to people who expect money from gambling games. So do not ever expect more when we do not want to get addicted.

I agree. Those who view this as earnings can not stop, because each time they expect to get a profit for the time and money spent.

Because they want to win that's why they addicted to gambling, gambling is anywhere. Gambling is not easy you have to risk your money. Sometimes they just say it for fun and past times. It is the most popular people pastimes today and most of the adult especially enjoy. The one reason why people addicted to gamblers becoming addicted is they experience the win.

Once they feel that they will win something by doing nothing, they will just get addicted to it and its hard to stop that. Some people feel that their luck is with them and they will win everyday and in that dream, they will put in all.

I agree to one thing that people who have free time more have more vices in action - because the lazy brain is a devil's workshop.

However I cannot accept the fact that most gamblers will be having free time. Many people who gamble are those who want to have fun after a hard day at work and work of steam. They want to roll some dice meet their friends and bet on the next match and so on. For addicted gamblers though wasting of time is not important to them rather winning the bet is.

Its very addictive when you start playing it because its a game and YOU CAN EARN REAL MONEY OR LOSE SOME. It majes addicting when you earn alot thats why many people put their whole life in gambling but its better if we are disciplined enough to stop the greed that relies in us.

This is the way the casinos gain trust on you even if the trust if not actually true - people think they can earn millions by just rolling some dice. But in reality earning money is not that easy and cannot be done so easily. People want more and hence they bet again. If they would stop at a certain point then they may be able to bank that cash and get away with it, but the addiction is too strong for them to resist.

I consider myself like that. Like to gamble on sports. I don't consider myself professional gambler but funny one. Placing few games on weekends is time to relax. Quit smoking so this few euros per day I place on some matches good fun and you gain something back. I even enjoy if I win.

True, so I've learn also here in campaign while also reading a lot of their experience in gambling and I can also use this in my personal needs/wants. Because I've learn how to manage myself and also my personal income in terms of gambling.

You dont need to manage yourself, you only need to think straight about this thing. First of all it is a way of making EXTRA money therefore dont even think of trying to become rich in a single day. Secondly when you choose to stop, you need to have a determination of stopping wether you want it or not
Yeah, I know that we cannot make money in gambling in a single day, because gambling is risky and it can lose all of our money in a day. But ofcourse it will also depend on us if we will let our money make lose in that day. And you are right, we need to have a determination for us to stop in gambling.

Well, It is not a matter of being risky or not. It is a matter of wether you are sane enough or not when you play. Some people think of it as a safehaven of making money. They dont need to do anything else when they think that they could get money from gambling which is sad and stupid at the same time
It is really stupid, We cannot earn money in gambling in a safest way or we cannot earn consistent money here, there is no permanent income when it comes in gambling, unlike, if we have a decent job, at-least we know that we can earn money because we have a job and we can use it for our family and please don't use all your money in gambling when you already get your salary. Just play with spare amount of your salary because we don't know if we can really win the game.

You quit because you have nothing to gamble, that is the worst thing that will happen to an addicted gambler and it will happen very fast since he lost control of himself. There are risk in gambling and as a gambler we should learn how to manage it, but we cannot do that if we are not a discipline gambler due to the fact that we always want some action and be aggressive all the time.

I could not agree more to this mate. Things will really go fast if you don't control your gambling habits. You can easily lose all of your hard earned money and savings in just a matter of days or just 1 day if you are fool enough to bet it all in.

You're right! It is easy to earn money in gambling when it's your lucky day but if it's not and you bet all in then you get bust say goodbye to your hard earned money. People tend to gamble more specially those who lose alot of money in gambling thinking that they can win back the money they lost.
