How to spot a gambler addicted?

[daneranon89]

I think if a person keeps gambling away his money and spends a lot of time of gambling, then he is an addict in my eyes. Gambling should be done just for sake of entertaining yourself without wasting too much time or money. It shouldn't get into way of making decision for you and your family. You should be able to stop it at any time.

and also if everytime you go to the casino and that person is still there and probably in the same table probably he just have some friends and they are addicted. We Shouldn't Judge them if there are things that amount to addiction because you can never know what's really the reason why they are there. There would be a lot of Destruction if someone is addicted especially towards the loved ones. Don't get too much addicted with it.

I think that most gambling addicts are pretty much invisible though, except for in real brick and mortar casino's.
Now with so many online casino's, it's pretty hard to notice gambling addiction. Except perhaps if you have a friend who's constantly gambling on his phone or something like that.

And you don't have to be gambling every day to be considered an addict.
If you gamble just once a week or once a month, but almost empty your bank account every time, you're also an addict

Its easy to spot a gambler who is addicted in gambling. When a person who spends more time gambling than doing something productive in his/her life then for me that person is addicted to gambling, if he/she prefer spending his/her money in gambling and don't care if he/she wins or lose then he/she is obviously addicted to gambling.

Those are the qualities on spotting a gambler. He/she most of the time is staying at the lobby and chatting out with other gamblers. And also another one is if he keep on mentioning with his/her mouth about her losses and winnings. This is obsession and not just an addicted gambler.

If he thinks that gambling is the best source of income and that is sufficient to sustain his daily living. I can conclude that person is truly an addicted gambler, he doesn't even think about the risk but he's always looking forward to see his possible figures that he can earn when he hit the jackpot or win in a table in a poker game.

Well, I like to gamble but I am not addict on gambling. I think that people who have passion for gambling have a great chance to become addicted especially if they have no family or job but have a lot of free time in their life.
That's a good thing that you do, walking away from trading when have a bad day. I would call that walking away of yours as tilt situation preventing. I am doing that by my self, it keeps me unharmed.
Gambling is not my passion but I struggle with some other addictions and I know how hard and stupid stupid that can looks like. So crazy passion for something makes you a potential addict but you my friend, I think you are safe when taking about gambling addiction issue.

Not all gamblers that look gambling as the best source of income and that is sufficient to sustain someone's life is a gambling addict, there are times where they don't take it as anything, as long as they are gambling, eaening money and having fun and also, always getting back their losses, ypu can say they are addicted to gmbling.

Only selected gambler can win the jackpot but for me i am not expecting to win a jackpot that honestly it really impossible to hit the jackpot..
There are many gamblers out there and they are almost targeting jackpot..
If you are addicted you can be lose a lot of money that i think it will be hard to quit in gambling.
They're feel that f they win or like you in poker game they feel better but if they lose they feel angry that can push the gambler to bet more..

It's very easy to spot an addicted gambler.

And even here in forum you can find a lot of it, those people that has their own prediction threads.

Surely they are one of those addicted gamblers but I know they are responsible.

you can't judge like that , some people really know what they are doing , prediction some match based on their knowledge , ability to do some math statistics etc. they are selling their services and it's doesn't mean they are addicted. sometimes it's better to offering prediction service rather than gamble directly by yourself . as you might know the risk using any tips to place your bets in sports wouldn't give you any guarantee but at least give you a little bit confidence.

If he has chosen to use prediction services, he must certainly believe to place the bet because he has paid to get a forecast. I do not agree with you if playing with this way can increase our confidence, just the opposite you will be addicted to the prediction service so you will continue to pay them and you never can make a prediction by yourself.

first of all the reason why people using other people tip service instead make your own guessing are because of mostly they are not confident enough . when they bought a match tip they would feel so confident as they believe on what they have believed. addicted or not it's just your own problem , so solve it by yourself. the real sign of an addict are when you can't stop even you have lost big.

How can we earn for good with gambling when it cannot give us proper good amount of winnings? And I think same as you those gamblers around played for getting their selves more satisfaction, And maybe those people who goes for gambling to earn are those low capital people where they gamble they few amount of money to gain more when they are lucky.

If you ask me, limiting yourself in terms of money would be the best way to control yourself by getting addicted. An addicted Gambler would not hesitate to even sell his home to gamble, lots of examples we've seen.

Many do not want to recognize their dependence on gambling. Usually it occurs after a big win as I have. You always want to experience this feeling again, despite the great losses.

I think that usually a guy which play games for a long time, risk to became a gambler addicted. Which method you use for stop plaiyng when you understand that you are near to became addicted?

For example, i don't play a lot or for long time (i play games spot during my free time), so i have no idea about, but i trade forex all day and when i had a significant  loss i usually turn off my Pc and i go out for a drink , just for not run behind loss.

I think if someone's doing it a daily habit and it's affecting his/her normal life you can consider him/her a gambling addict. For example, if someone usually go to the casino and spends most of his money in gambling or even selling some of his property just to play.

Daily going to the casino and playing gambling is not easy mate, if you are rich and don't have any work to do have money to run your family then only you can go daily and play in the casino. Because the entry fee is very high in all casino, we can not bear that money daily. Some people will sell their property and play gambling I heard but this kind of gamblers very less we see.

Even rich people get addicted to gambling and seen plenty of them get bankrupt doing it.
When I went to macau once, I saw a lot of pawnshops outside one casino, and they had so much jewelries and luxury watches.
They are actually cheap, when I asked the pawnshop owner why it was cheap it was because those rich gamblers sold them for scraps.

Spotting an addictive gambler is easy and hard at the same time. You can detect him when you look at his eyes or rather his greedy eyes, when he is greedy for money to the point that he would sacrifice his precious things just to gamble. If you feel like you always think of gambling, and it has become a habit for you or you cannot take a day off, then you are becoming addicted to gambling, and you should stop right away or reduce.

Right now it's hard to spot an addicted gambler because most gambler are just doing it online and only those who are
close to them like their family can see what is happening to a certain gambler.
I think if we have experience being a gambler and get addicted it would be easy to spot one.

Addiction is very difficult to remove for a gambling game. They will continue to try to win every game, but we know that gambling is just a game that bet on a fortune. So for me someone who has become an addict is those who can not control themselves well.

gambler addicted ? well i've seen a lot of people addicted to gambling those are people who don't care if they didnt eaten yet as long as they're playing gambling the people who want to earn a lot of money and became a loaner which leads to be a homeless . people who is addicted on gambling will always lose . peopel who play in the long run will not make them rich it willbe a waste for their money.

It is a true story about addicted gambler, who lose everything during his addicted period and if they continue to play gambling than the time is not far when they will be lose their life because of addiction in gambling. I also have painful story and i always worried about my brother who become addicted gamble. It is really give pain whenever i discuss about him. I have too much painful feeling even i can't explain it in my words.     

Well that’s a sad story mate, and those pains will brought us lessons in life as days gone by. Before spotting an addicted gambler you must know the exact scenario that caused their addictions. Continued activities linked with gambling really prevails during those days of involvement and as a curious individual who cared for my relatives and friend, I must take part of giving an advice in order to make them realize that those activities will did a negative effects on their lives. For now those pains and experiences that has gone through times, is really a serious situation that needs desired attention to be solved emotionally behind social matters.
