Why is gambling so addicting?

[iv4n]

Addicting stuff usually provides a rush or some kind of reward that when it is activated triggers the dopamine and seeatonin (happy brain chemicals ).  Gambling is super rushy when You win a jackpot or a keno big win.  That is for sure a flood of all the good stuff and of course we all want more of that buzz. 

✨

We all wish more buzz, you gave very good description why gambling is so addicting and why we are always coming back for more, we are trying to win the same feeling that we know its somewhere in casino. Also casinos are making sure we to feel comfortable, they always gives us bonuses and there are different promotions, everything for us to feel like at home.
I like to gamble, I don't think on addicted but I love to feel buzz and to feel that I'm welcomed.

Because gambling is most fun activity to do when compared work, and it's humane. Only, gambling using money is potentially dangerous for a person's financial condition.

Can you explain how gambling is a "fun" activity? Apart from the thrill in playing and the excitement - there is nothing fun in losing a lot and becoming a beggar. Gambling is always associated with risk and loss. If a person is not willing to accept it then they may not play at all. Then it does not mean that the person has to get addicted to gambling because that is their own choice.

People are different, they have different likes and dislikes, if for you gambling is not fun at all then that is something that I respect but for some gambling can be extremely fun, I have heard people describing gambling as better than sex, which is somewhat odd, but if that is the way they feel then there is no use arguing with them about the subject.

We are attracted by gambling becasue we think we can easily earn huge amount of money in short period of time.
The most important thing is to know your limit and not ruin your life because of games.

Yes we are attracted to the prize that we are gonna be won. Everyone is determined to get that prize, people wil be more determined because of it. And therefore we keep on thinking that we must play and play until we get such money, but we need to keep in mind that we need to not lose all the money that we have just continue only to play it. It will be better.

Yeah, I think that is the only reason why most of the gamblers are addicted to gambling. The addiction because of the losses that they are experiencing every time they do gambling. The more money that they are losing in gambling the more addicted they become, and it is really hard to overcome this bad habit. We need to be dedicated in order to completely forget about this addiction to have a better life.

to me people are addicted to gambling because of the expectation that we have from gambling. when people become disappointed from finding job and other places, they come to play gambling because gambling do not require any experience or education you just need to learn how to play and you can learn that with in few days and then can make money from gambling, but when we lose money from gambling we are not ready to accept the result and still expecting good result from gambling for next time and so we become addicted.

[Aneggeers]

that what makes it so popular, being something addictive that people can not just leave even after losing money multiple times, again trying their luck and waiting for even more money than that lost. the attraction is the big possibility of getting prices equal multiple times the played amount which is impossible elsewhere.

Yes that's true mate inspite of all the money you've lost you still coming back and chasing your money that you lose in gambling. And this is what most gamblers that it became so addictive to them because it provides pleasure and entertainment.

[voltesbit777]

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

Why is it so addictive?

If a gambler was very addicting in gambling it means that the player itself is an addict gambler where they allowed themselves
to become like that. where its other reason why they keep coming back into gambling.

[blockman]

Because gambling is a fun activity. Even if it has been peppered with money, will be very visible pleasure in it. And people began to get lulled when they had seen money grow when win, and became emotional when he lost.

Not just it's fun but there's a lot of factors that make gambling is an addicting activity. The pleasure, the money, the satisfaction it's like a package that you'll get when you started to gamble.

Theres an excitement in playing gambling but being practical is what we need ,we need to save now unless we were rich enough ti lose it.

So you will mostly wait and become rich and gamble out your money? That's why there are a lot of rich gambling addicts they don't have an idea on how they will spend their money or riches into something. And they chose to gamble which is a better choice unlike other wealthy people that are falling into a bad decision.

[terrific]

The games are very exciting and if you are lucky enough, you can win a decent amount from it.
Gamblers will always say that gambling is a good way to earn that makes them addicted.
Just moderate yourself when you gamble so that you are aware of it.

Gambling is indeed a good way to earn some decent income but the addiction comes from the individual's appetite to recover losses and that's the dead end which could cause you so many problems.

I don't think it is "indeed a good way to earn" it's just a wrong way of thinking of many gamblers.
That is being offered by the gambling sites and that's why many are starting to become addict with that way of winning.
I just gamble for sometime and that's only for fun.

That's by choice if you choose to be addictive and stay away from gambling yes maybe people are attracting to gambling because of its the needs of the money thinking the way best to get money is from playing gambling but they sisnt know the only winner there is the gambling itself either you win or loae gambling is all about luck.

[BCTBF]

Because they believe they will have the luck to double their money quickly. But it depends on how much money you spend on gambling so you can make a lot of money instantly. So when people are affected and they have no control, they will continue to play and become addicting.

in fact everyone want to make more money in short period of time. and therefore they have choosen gambling where there are more chances to become millionaire in a single day, but we halo have to accept the fact that gambling is also one of the most risky way of making money, and there are more chances that you will even lose your own money in gambling, but still people do not accept that reality and still they consider gambling the best way of making money in short period of time.

Not just because of thinking to win of being lucky, but this happens due to the easy earning access which one cannot get through the other earning source available. When people get random wins, they easily forget the losses and keep playing to get bigger earning causing them to get addicted.

[czvezda]

Gambling is addictive because it seems shortest and quickest way to make lot of money.If this happens what happens almost to everyone at start you win few bets this encourages you to keep trying your luck.It is not only gambling but everything what you do for a longer period let you get addicted to that in the end.

well said, its the thinking that you can easy double or make a big earnings in an easy way and with that points of view people keep trying to play
not realizing that the numbers of their winnings is smaller than the actual numbers of their loses so just pretending that they are enjoying but in the deep sense they just losing and losing their money.

[revans]

There is a particular rush that addictive can give. Pretty much like any cases of substance or alcohol abuse. It can boost one's feeling of morale, thrill and excitement.

This feelings though are pretty much the root of all these. Each form are intended to be a form of escape or a diversion to face the actual emotions we are trying to suppress.

You are right that people have preferences and their own like and dislikes. Because of this we do things differently and have different opinions about everything. Fact is that sex always goes before gambling - for me at least.

In fact gambling too much will only ruin you sex life and often lead to unhappy marriages. Except those one or two jackpot winners in the background who will become really rich for it as well.

[aryana42]

Because humans are more interested in fun than work . As well as with gambling, most fun thing to do. Even when it has swallowed alot lose, our mind will continue to invite ourselves to gamble.

[tungaqhd]

Because it makes people happy when they won some money and it attack on people's greedy. They don't want to lost their money so they keep playing to win again.
Many people win big mney in gambling so they addicted too
