Gambling is so addictive because once you win you get greedy and you try to win more, and if you loose you keep trying to gain what you lost. If you don't control yourself, you become addicted and it may have bad consequences on your life!


Well once you win if you are careful you will not gamble more. But in real life most people are greedy and want to play more and more so as to win more. But they forget about the House Edge in EV- games and end up losing a lot. Gambling is addicting because of the greed that people have and also because people are having and ego to satisfy - that they have to win and they wont lose to a casino. Again jealousy over big winners is also a factor.

One thing I know about gambling addiction that is when one person have the so called "uncontented". I know gambling makes a person to become uncontented about money, uncontented about time, unconted about fame that what we get in gambling that's why many of people become addicted without even knowing it.

The casino owners want their players to be not contented with their earnings. They want the players to play more and more so as to make them lose more. In gambling the more you play the more your chances of losing the money and less chances of winning big. The complete opposite of games where practice makes perfect like EV+ gambling. EV- games only need luck and if you dont have that and keep playing then you are sure to lose.

Practice makes perfect for EV+ gambling? you must be kidding me. It doesnt matter wether it is EV- or EV+, in the end it is much more the same because it requires luck. Although you are much likely to win in an EV+ games however certainly you can lose as well that is why luck will still remain as the main factor

You're correct, but not at all. There's a HIGH RISK waiting when you do a gambling. A risk that you can't able to return it back when you loss a large amount of money. They you're trying hard to recover your loss and you didnt see that your loss becoming bigger and bigger as time passing by. I will play gambling if it is a free money. I already experienced of being drained because of gambling. That's why I don't wanna to experience it again. I never do a deposit again. Cheesy Sometimes you must need to be a smart as well.

That's one of the reason why gamblers become addicted to gambling. If we always win we are playing more because we know that we are going to win but we did not know that we are starting to get addicted and the worst scenario is when we lose that's the time that we will have more problems because of chasing loses.

that is why before you start playing , you better to know well about how the risk works here.

i mean you should gamble only with the amount that you can afford to lose only , otherwise everything could be messed up and ended badly. gambling are addictive thing because of its easy money maker '' idea '' , people get lured and that is the biggest mistake.

If we win then we want to come back but if we lose we want to come back as well. There are alot of reason to come back but for me that it is for fun. Playing for fun makes us want to come back although we lose or win that is why I am addicted to get fun right now not only because I want to play and get profit from the game

I dont know where you get your experience from to taunt others but seriously speaking I have learnt this from playing myself and seeing other play. In EV+ games like Poker PvP you need and practice and that experience once built can help you in future. In EV- games its always luck and there is the House Edge which will wipe away you balance at any point of time.

Most people want to get rich with the easy way though to get it required a very high risk. Gambling is one way to gain wealth the easy way, at least that's what most people have in mind. They are not concerned with the fact that little by little their wealth will be drained away by it. The desire to become rich with little effort still remains the main reason why gambling is become an addiction activity.

If someone has put everything into gambling then they will think of nothing but only to gamble. It is very hard to quit gambling but it is not hard to control ourselves. I was one of the victim of gambling as well but I quit my bad habit and keep gambling without having to worry that bad habit got me again

It is a bit like nicotine. when your body release hormones related with greed & fear while you are gambling and if you have that a bit regularly then it becomes like poison. Earth is based on fear & greed, everything including financial market, social life, career and everything you can imagine. so this is evolutional developed instinct is being provoked by gambling which becomes addiction.

But even if the one who don't have any skills get lucky to win good amount of money from gambling at first, he might not withdraw it and keep playing with greed to win more. And by the end of the day he will loss whatever he have won in past plus what he have deposited at first.

You can't make good profit from gambling and I don't think it is something like get rich quick opportunity. Gambling addiction will always make you loss what you have.

Please stop saying this kind of thing like you are actually the only one that know about this kind of thing. The fact is that gambling addiction is not really the same case as a drug. Drugs are made from addictive that will made you suffer once you tried them and it is not the same with gambling

Yes, in case of winning as well as loss you cannot leave playing gambling. In losing condition you will think to play once again to get back you own money and in winning condition you will think to win more so in this way you will become addicted of gambling. I know personally some of my friends who are badly addicted of gambling they have lost a lot in gambling but is not ready to leave still.

Gambling is one of the most popular recreational activities to be enjoyed. One factor for the gamblers to be addictive is the experience of early big win. Winning a large amount can be sometimes overwhelming and the fact it arrives early means that the player think it is easier to land such thing.

One of the best thing to have fun nowadays. I dont need to change my shirt or even get out of my room because I can do it just like that. I can open my computer and access my favourite site without leaving my room. I can also get some money from it that is why gambling is a very addicting and entertaining things for me
there's always a good and bad things , when you gamble online you might have a flexible way to get entertained and earned money through of it . but you wouldn't have a good time to hangout together with your friends , talking bullshit but funny with people around have a lot of experience during that time. however what makes gambling addictive actually not about what you have said above i guess , but more to how your mindset think that gambling are the easiest way to make money. it's completely wrong!

Gambling can be the easiest way to make money but there is a caveat: it is also the easiest way to lose all your hard earned money. So gamble with caution and only play just for fun and not for profit because you do the latter, you will only be disappointed and stressed out.
yeah there's a high risk when you found an easy way in gambling , no wonder. people know already about that i guess. just the matter how you can deal with it , take it easy or get panic whenever you have crossed the line. an addict usually gamble with their emotion instead use their head, their brain to make a decision. that's what makes them always get addicted.

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