The danger is the addiction, not the odds

We all having some addictions.  Some can be gambling, others can be drugs, drinking, smoking or others.
Just knowing when to stop is what is the most important.  If you know someone is not doing well, be a good person and tell them that its is enough already.

The word 'addict' is always negative in the eyes of many people. No matter if it's drunk, drugs, gambling and smoking etc, when you listen to someone having an addiction to some of these things, someone who is closest to you will at least make you aware that this will bring your life into darkness. However, what needs to be known is an advice or an exhortation which is given by someone else will only be heard when an addict does not have anything, for example a gambler will regret that he has spent money in his pocket and he cannot gamble anymore. In this position he will regret but when he has the money to gamble again he will not pay heed.

Not as easy as to stopping that, all addicts also want them to stop play. what you say and others people will not stop them to play
I think need willingness and intention in their heart to stop. that's the key

But I think if a person needs help, one should be willing to help him, and that people could be his family.

Gambling addiction is a serious problem, the coverage of effect does not reflect only during the times a person gamble, it could happen also
within the family and when addiction slowly getting inside of you, it will start to ruin your future.

Hence, it should be avoided as much as possible, since prevention is always better all the time.

To stop an addiction is not a child play.  Some of us here are addicted to one thing or the other and we know how far we have tried to stop it without success.  Remember that most of them are also saying that why is it too difficult to break this addiction.  If one becomes attached to gambling then there is need we assist such one.

Been there, done that. It's pretty scary how much gambling actually change our behavior in just a span of several seconds!

According to the subject agree because addiction is the root for lose along the odd whenever one gamble. The gambler should know that he/she should gamble with what they can afford to loose only this way will they not be addicted in the game of gamble. Whenever i play, i never play with the odd but play with my instinct for the best game.

Like me, i'm much more hook on the odds, not thinking straight about what i will lose, many times victim of hook sting, that .5 will get you hooked at betting.

Gambling will change our behavior in any second. We have the power to control our mind and leave the gambling games forever if we want to quit gambling. Addiction to gambling is too dangerous especially, for new people who want to feel playing the games with money inside and they're chance will bigger to become addicted to gambling. So better you think twice before you decide to play any gambling games because the risk will bigger without you realize.

But how about the surroundings? if you have a group of friends who regularly gambles it's possible to be a gambler too.

If you have a strong belief that gambling isn't for you and you can maintain it for a very long time, then I don't think you will be affected by the habits of your friends. But usually, people who associate with gamblers will certainly become gamblers as well and eventually become addicts. There are many examples of people who are addicted to gambling just because they are following the trends of those around them.

Right.Mostly the people that surround us will greatly affect us too.If there are gamblers around,it is very possible that in the coming days we will also learn how to gamble and definitely develop and interest on it and finally become addicted to it.And because of our own greediness to gain more profits rather than losses,addiction sometimes is really hard to stop.

Affection is one thing too when a person becomes a gambler due to the influence of his gambling friends. They will force you to gamble and do what they are doing because you will have the feeling that you don't belong if you won't do what they does.

I gamble too because of the surroundings and that started to give me a chill on how fun is to gamble. But as I grow, I realize that it's because of the influence that other people made to you and the feelings you'll get are just second.

[Ross.Thoms27]

Yeah, cause i just realized that i'm doing betting just because my friends are gamblers, at first i think it just for fun but when big game comes, we all like giving our salary just to bet and also it's hard to resist not to gamble with your friends.

It will need a strong mind to prevent us from becoming a gambler. That is hard because the tempting to play will always there especially our friends still asking us to play with them. And it is why we need to know how to reject if they ask to join in the games. Perhaps we can follow them to play together in one time in a week but don't follow them every day because we know that the chance to become addicted will wide open.

[bitgolden]

The gambler should know that he/she should gamble with what they can afford to loose only this way will they not be addicted in the game of gamble.

No, you will get addicted even you are gambling only with those affordable money. Because, if you get some small money on daily basis and if that money is affordable to lose then if you gamble daily then you will get addicted to gambling and then you will start to gamble even with the money which are not affordable to lose. I mean we should not gamble frequently or whenever we have affordable money, otherwise we will get addicted slowly.

Whenever i play, i never play with the odd but play with my instinct for the best game.

You can choose whatever games you may prefer which does not mean that you are playing safer from gambling addictions. Moreover the chance for getting addicted is more when you gamble with your favorite games as it may attract you to gamble more frequently.

You are really in touch with your friends, you can't easily escaped from that if you never want it to do.
Anyways, there is no problem gambling with your friends but you just set a limitation. Cause it will never be good anymore if you'll get into addiction.
Friends are just friends and I know they will understand you if you'll never do gambling.

Its our decision that will matter and no matter who their are if you know what is right you will do it. Beside, those are just your friends and not even your family so if they are true with your friendship they will not force you to gamble and they will respect your decision. The danger in addiction can be avoided in early stage, just control yourself.

i already talked to them about me getting hooked by gambling, of course they understand they said that it's okay to gamble as long as i can control my bets and have fun and they will be there if anything goes south about gambling. that's why i'm just doing some side bets and bets to the team and players that i support.
