When someone got addicted, he doesn't realize that, but people will see and maybe will tell him that he has a new bad habit.
When you are in that state of mind, all you see is gambling and yourself, you don't listen to people, you also urge yourself to gamble and very positive to win despite not proving on record that you are make it. You get foolish when you are addicted as the only strategy you have is to follow your emotion.

You betrayed your own self in this scenario, so about getting caught on addiction.
And if that people care with that person, he/she will help that person and will do anything to make him stop from gambling forever. But it's hard to find people like that because not all family will care with one of their members and they are too busy with themselves.
The problem is an addicted person knows how to hide their addiction, and when you notice and reach out to them, they might not gonna entertain you.

The only thing good about not expecting anything in return is that, you dont feel any stress for the entire game. You see, if the money you brought to game are intended to lose, you will experience fun and if ever you win, you will feel more delightful. Emotions and behavior is all about mindset, but winning is all about luck.

But I don't think that even though they are still gambling to entertain themselves, they are not hoping to win.

I know that there are a lot of people that gamble for fun, so they can entertain themselves for a short period of time but also they are hoping deep inside them that they can win a lot of money. It might be a possibility but that don't work always for every gambler.

The fact is not like that and even that is difficult to make some gamblers not hunger to their money back, they gamble because there is something that the profit he sees is not just fun. This is what makes everyone an addict, they will always hope to win when betting. And I guess people who gamble are just for fun, so they are categorized as gambling addicts, even though they do gambling once a week.
The fun is what the casino owners want. They want the rollers to feel like its their home. Its a part of their marketing strategy to keep the people happy and make sure they stick around and not go away. They are there to give room to your addiction and willingness to take risk. People call it fun because its entertaining them but they have to do it for a price obviously.

The addicted gamblers do have to stop once they run out of funds and this often leads to anger outbursts either due to frustration or due to being high on drugs at the same time. Grin

Ok! I was actually trying to get reasons why people get addicted to gambling which we all know is more self inflicted. However, I came up with this theory for someone who may actually want to gamble and then would not want to get addicted based on trying to fix their mentality about it and I would like to seek your opinion on what you think about it, if it can actually end up working for any gambler or not.

The theory is;
If you want to gamble, see it more like you are paying the casino or gambling platform to have some fun (just like you do to go watch some movies in cinema), which if you are paying for anything, you are not meant to expect it back. The good thing however is that, you can actually end up being paid more for having that fun if you get lucky, but the chances of seeing that happen is pretty slim. In that light, if you cannot actually live with doing what I said above, then you should not be gambling at all.

Does this sound like a mentality that can help anyone understand what they are in for if they indeed want to gamble or something even those who are tending towards addiction can set their mind to so as not to get into that deep gambling hole that is hard to come out from?

This is more like an observation, not a theory

Anyway, most people gamble for the joy of it. The ones that are in exclusively for profits rarely become addicts as after suffering losses (and likely suffering even more losses again after they first disagree), they walk away having finally understood that it is impossible to beat the casino if only by luck (if we are talking about dice or similar chance-based games). In other words, future addicts don't see themselves as addicts. In fact, not even all accomplished addicts admit to have an addiction

Many gamblers who suffer from gambling addiction try to think that way, that they are paying the casio. to use their games and to have some fun. However I have seen a colleague of mine who tried to quit gambling by playing free simulators in the internet , Gaminators and Hot fruits simulators and told me , this is it, now I can quit gambling easily.

The reality though was that after playing with simulators for one week he then got to the casino and lost a big amount.The only true way to quit is to ask professional help.

playing gambling simulators or video games that are related to gambling can be a good idea to quit the actual/real gambling .  other example is vape ,  vape use by people to quit smoking and survey says that it is effective though some are still going back to thier old bad habits  . those guys really need to seek a real professional help if ever they want to stop thier addiction  .

Sooner or later pleasure (just for fun when gambling) will bring you to become an addict.

Maybe you have not been able to distinguish between addicts and things that you like, actually it's the same.

For everyone who says 'I play gambling just for fun' then you can call him as a gambling addict.

setting priority might help. In this way it could be minimize especially if you are also a kind of an individual that is responsible and respect. I have done this already and basing on experience I only bring money to gamble not to the extent that I have to brought all of my allowance. This will help me to control myself whe  in doing gambling. My wife know this and sometimes she will be happy to see if I  winning. Yet, she is always sad because I always lost. LOL however losses are just minimal.

Easily one gets addicted to gambling, because the winning one has experienced through gambling will let the user stay active into gambling. One cannot get winning results all the time, periodically loss happens, and the user will keep himself engaged into recovering the loss. This is the beginning of an user getting addicted, very few understand the reality of losses happening with gambling and try to get out of the same.

This is the possibility that we cannot neglect in gambling, we are close to addiction especially if we are ambitious enough and we do not work with our mind, instead we use our emotion too much. There is no room for weak people in gambling because although it's just a game and an entertainment but we cannot deny it's a high risk activity.

For everyone who says 'I play gambling just for fun' then you can call him as a gambling addict.
If what he says is what he does then I guess there's no problem with that, a person is only called addicted if he will engage in gambling with lack of control.

The theory is good and sounds like better,but the problem is people are being encouraged by others to gamble or just to even try betting,and we all know that at first most of newly entering gambling are awarded by luck,and all of a sudden after a while when you turns serious in this field then the losses will come

This is the fact and i believe is also true sine its my own experience ,its really good to tell our self that we are paying casino just to give us fun,but we cant take it from a gambler to expect winnings everytime they played right?

Yes theory will always not works when we are making profits with our strategy are some tricks we can be happy to make profit but the next time the same thing will not work this will be the main problem for all gambling people so playing things is good but depending upon something will not be good.

Becouse of the greed in us it is very difficult to play casino or gambling as fun.  We have profits making in our minds before investing into any of the things that give us profits.  Remember that traders has the same mind but I think we should take gambling and betting serious than looking at it as fun.

Yes, that is what happens with us, our passion will become bigger because we want to chase the win money. It becomes too dangerous when we depend on the emotion because we can not see what's happening in the round table because our mind will full of chasing the money only.


And if that people care with that person, he/she will help that person and will do anything to make him stop from gambling forever. But it's hard to find people like that because not all family will care with one of their members and they are too busy with themselves.
The problem is an addicted person knows how to hide their addiction, and when you notice and reach out to them, they might not gonna entertain you.
I am sure that there will be a time for us to know the problem in the addicted person, no matter if he tells us or not. It's about feeling or emotion about how we can know that problem. It's like if you are with somebody and your feeling say that he/she has a problem but he/she is not telling you about the problem, but you know it.

Many gamblers who suffer from gambling addiction try to think that way, that they are paying the casio. to use their games and to have some fun. However I have seen a colleague of mine who tried to quit gambling by playing free simulators in the internet , Gaminators and Hot fruits simulators and told me , this is it, now I can quit gambling easily.

The reality though was that after playing with simulators for one week he then got to the casino and lost a big amount.The only true way to quit is to ask professional help.

For some people, this may work. It depends on how do you see the casino you are playing. If you are more focused on the profits that you gain (even if these profits are fake) then you have a problem, like your friend. If you are focused on the procedure and not in the amount that you want to accumulate then you can find a way of not losing your money. I think this solution doesn't have application to all gamblers.

Yes you are correct it differs for each and every people some people will get profit from this idea but some people will not be like that because gambling is always mysterious thing we can I do any tricks for this.

We have heard that at the end, the bad result mostly will come to gamblers addict. Based on that, if we focus on the profit we want to achieve in gambling then we can end up like most gamblers have. We should be wise if we want to enjoy gambling as long as possible. Paying small money won't hurt us to enjoy gambling game services. So, comparing gambling with watching movies on cinema sounds realistic for me. Treat gambling as a way to have fun only and never try to solve our financial problems or to get rich from gambling.

Many gamblers who suffer from gambling addiction try to think that way, that they are paying the casio. to use their games and to have some fun. However I have seen a colleague of mine who tried to quit gambling by playing free simulators in the internet , Gaminators and Hot fruits simulators and told me , this is it, now I can quit gambling easily.

The reality though was that after playing with simulators for one week he then got to the casino and lost a big amount.The only true way to quit is to ask professional help.

For some people, this may work. It depends on how do you see the casino you are playing. If you are more focused on the profits that you gain (even if these profits are fake) then you have a problem, like your friend. If you are focused on the procedure and not in the amount that you want to accumulate then you can find a way of not losing your money. I think this solution doesn't have application to all gamblers.

We have heard that at the end, the bad result mostly will come to gamblers addict. Based on that, if we focus on the profit we want to achieve in gambling then we can end up like most gamblers have. We should be wise if we want to enjoy gambling as long as possible. Paying small money won't hurt us to enjoy gambling game services. So, comparing gambling with watching movies on cinema sounds realistic for me. Treat gambling as a way to have fun only and never try to solve our financial problems or to get rich from gambling.

thats what im doing . i only treat gambling as a kind of entertainment to pass the time and to enjoy because it gives me a different kind of thrill compared to when i play video games or watch movies on the web   but i dont get ever addicted to it because i only allocate a sufficient amount of funds  everytime i step in into the gambling entrance   .

 but my neighbors and some of my family members treat gambling as oppose to what i do . they play because they want to win badly . i feel so bad about it but i dont confront them because i dont want to hurt their feelings  .

Ok! I was actually trying to get reasons why people get addicted to gambling which we all know is more self inflicted. However, I came up with this theory for someone who may actually want to gamble and then would not want to get addicted based on trying to fix their mentality about it and I would like to seek your opinion on what you think about it, if it can actually end up working for any gambler or not.

The theory is;
If you want to gamble, see it more like you are paying the casino or gambling platform to have some fun (just like you do to go watch some movies in cinema), which if you are paying for anything, you are not meant to expect it back. The good thing however is that, you can actually end up being paid more for having that fun if you get lucky, but the chances of seeing that happen is pretty slim. In that light, if you cannot actually live with doing what I said above, then you should not be gambling at all.

Does this sound like a mentality that can help anyone understand what they are in for if they indeed want to gamble or something even those who are tending towards addiction can set their mind to so as not to get into that deep gambling hole that is hard to come out from?
i like what you're thinking but at some point gambling is fun when you're winning but when you're starting out then loses all the time? i don't think you'll get addicted to gambling. it's fun if you're having fun and won but if you're stakes are getting bigger and starting to sell things and owe money, well, the person is addicted. Especially on the thought that he/she can bring back what he/she loses that's why he/she will still gambling thinking that he/she will win and get even.
