what ever study or books , no one can change the mentality of the gamblers , everyone knows that on long term will be in loss then also on a small hope they just do gambling, telling advice is very good but following it is hard.

I used to gamble a lot in the past, even tho I have always been a casual, for fun gambler, but the study nonetheless explains how it works, I know that a true addict is very hard to recover, but not impossible tho, with professional treatment it can be done.

Not even with a professional treatment, you just need to understand it properly and completely. You cant just stop it because you feel so, you have to be 100% sure and confident of leaving it.

Yeah it's safe to say that a regular gambler is an addicted gambler. Since there is consistency. It's wrong I know, but inevitable if there is a pattern in your gambling.
Regularity becomes addiction.

I think these study also find the end result which we guys do. People have a tendency to win and win only, if they see something yellow shinning they call it gold , like that when they see some huge odds ahead of them, they fall for it and that's the basic reason behind any addiction.

It explains quite nicely, I wont call this the best of explanation or review about gambling addiction but yes they have got the point why actually gambling makes you feel addicted.

Good read, such a fine line between fun and going to far

Yes there is a very fine line between going mad and being sensible too. Gamblers often get mad while playing and they loose all money, while if they can remain in their senses in bad situations they would profit much more.

I call this addiction 'the dangling carrot on a stick' type because getting the incentive in front of you ( the jackpot) makes you spend more and more money. Actually a lot of companies specializing in free to play games with microtransactions employ psychologists who help create the addicting schemes in the gameplay which are focused on you spending more cash for obtaining that in-game goal. 'Nickle and dime you to death' is just preying on peoples' addiction too.

For beginners, i think it's important to note the Gambler's Fallacy. Look it up on Wiki. Well if you think about it, this mentality is what lured people to continue to play. Good play by Casinos because this is what they used to get you hooked.

Very correct, anyone who has recently started to gamble should check it for sure. I think people should understand that gambling sites are designed in such a way that they wont loose, basically because they have bigger bankroll then yours.

[beerlover]

Gambling addiction is perfectly explained here, new gamblers would find it quite easy to leave addiction if they read such things. But gamblers like me who have been too old now in this addiction are hard to be told such things.

You are right. People should understand that they cannot win every bet they make. I think the study explains good too, but well, when you dont have good suggestions to avoid gambling, its pretty useless for such a study.

Thanks for this article, it's really interesting. Reassuring to see not we humans are the only gamblers. However personally I've never heard about pigeons gathering huge gambling debts. Perhaps they would if they could tho' .

Very beautiful article and although explanation is not 100% accurate it gives indication why gambling can make you addicted to it.
