Am not really a full time gambler but I'm a player, and if gamblers are addicted they'll have some favorite games to play, then what about the player who has also their favorite games can we really tell that they're also addicted to that certain game?
Since we're debating on players would have favorite game and gamblers here's my contribution. The average gambler can have a favorite game without been addicted could be s/he just love gambling with that game but in the case of an addicted gambler, it's a must to have a favorite game you waste all your money on even though you win or lose.

First a gambler starts to play on his favorite game and if he play constantly, it's high likely that he will be addicted. There is love on what we are doing but loving it does not all the time bring benefits especially if we did not notice that we are already addicted. It's prone to every gambler that we will be addicted as we are just human, sometimes we loss control and we can't resist temptation.
Being addicted is not fun anymore, you are just wasting your money and worst is your life.

Guess not, it's fun mate that's why poeple are getting addicted to any forms of games. They're having fun for they know it can give them what they want, but most of the times now, people whose addicted are just trying to get what they have lost in the first place. But still, I know it's fun even if you're already addicted on playing.

I think there are several perspectives to Favoritism and Addiction, They seem to be intertwined to some extent, One could easily lead to other, an example in football; you'll see some folks (due to favoritism leading to addiction) they place bets often on their favorite football club without caring about the chances of them winning the bet. I'm Barcelona fan for instance, and more often than not I tend not place bet on Barcelona, not because I'm not a good fan, but because I think I might not be totally objective about every match or I could have my emotions cloud my judgment.

If you ask favoritism vs addiction i think they similar that users like to play always another thing they really feel good everytime they do what they want then they not the same in the knowledge that favoritsm are positive attitude of the player then if you like this you really can control of yourself and in addiction i think you can't control yourself then this is really negative
I was thinking also about that! addiction and favoritism are a quite different from each other, but favoritism, it can be addictive if you start to not control yourself! I'll tell an example, I love so much sports betting, I was playing mostly all the days with my friends (Now it's favoritism).. I enjoyed so much even when I lose money, it's okay, because I don't bet with high amount of money, a few weeks after that I started to be addicted and I can't control myself, sometimes I place more than 10 bets in one day! It's really so bad, but fortunately I was quitting this addiction.

For me, addiction isn't having fun anymore but it giving us a miserable life in the end. I may trying to control myself and not to engage more in gambling.

Being addicted is different from having a favorite gambling game.
That might be your favorite gambling game but that doesn't mean that you are already addicted to it. If you are addicted to something, you have a lot of excessive times on that and you can't stop yourself from playing it. You don't need to think of it your body just might move on its own. Also, if you have a favorite, you tell it to your friends but if you are addicted to it, you just play it.

For me, when I become an addict, there is no pleasure that I feel, because what I think is just pressure to win and profit, then you come back again to play continuously and continuously, there is no fun in being addicted. the game is fun, but when you turn into an addict Your goal will be different

You could say that a person with a favourite game can be addicted, most gamblers have some favourite games that are addicted to. In my case, I like poker and dice so you could say I am addicted because I gamble with other games rarely but I play poker and dice far more than other games. But, you aren't addicted if you can survive without playing the game a long time, then it is just favouritism not an addiction, you can have a favourite game without being addicted to full time gambling.

Being addicted can be general and wont only foccus on single type of game .
Perfect mate and I agree with you most of the gambler's addicted they are not stay in one games they play multiple games with have possible to get win. gambler's stay their own favorite games is doesn't mean he/she is addicted especially those gambler's play with moderation to relax get fun. the sign of gambler's addicted is playing without self control even if they sell their asset to give ways their addicting habit.

Favoritism and addiction is something that you can't compare really. Favoritism means you have a favorite thing but addiction is a habit you can't resist if it is there. There's a big difference between the two. In gambling, addiction means betting your all assets without using your brain to decide instead using your bursting emotion and become impulsive because of greed.
I would prefer favoritism with somehow the people still think of what they do and what they will earn/lose. They can enjoy playing the game but still, think in mind that it cant be their addiction.

To separate yourself from gamblers you can give honest reply can you stay away from any kind of gambling for two weeks or a month. I also have my favorite games, but I'm able to not come back to them for a long time when I'm not in a gambling mood and short with money.

Like some people above I see no connection between the two. An addict can have a favourite game or not and at the same time someone not addicted can also have a favourite game or not. I'd say the chance of an addict having a favourite game are much higher because he's spending more time playing and probably exploring all possible ways of gambling and a casual player can play only one thing and never even care to try other games.

Thats it, to be able to walk away from the gambling or gaming for a length of time without having the urge to fall back into the routine can be difficult when its an addiction, actually its almost impossible. But if its something like a favourite ir a hobby its easler to set it aside for a period of time.

Favoritism is like you're just playing to a one game, exerting effort and being loyal to that. I'm an addicted gamer but not focusing to a single game because if you're referring "gamer" then it should be a lot of games. It also applies to the others, Addicted gambler, means they're playing and betting all of the gambling games in casino and spending all of the money because he/she's addicted to it.
Favoritism just applies to those who still keeps playing to a single game because they're being attracted to it. Having an addiction is a general type, there's so many things you can be addicted to, and once you're being addicted to something, it's really hard to quit on that. Having a favorite means you want that thing to be in you because it fulfills your excitement and joy, and it can change time by time if a something new and interesting shows up.

... and short with money.
Well, that's pretty obvious mate, how would you play gambling if you're short of money,maybe addicted players will definitely borrow from someone else but it's still just a bad habit and mustn't be done. I simply get your point, and that's a good way to know how could you tell yourself if you're already addicted or not.

Favoritism is not something I would associate to addiction, they differ a lot from each other. Favoritism is when you play only one slot and you don't overdo it, you set a bankroll and stick to it, if you win ok if not still ok.
Gambling addiction is when your brain do not think of anything else except gambling, lately addiction has been put as a pathology, a disease from many doctors.

Am not really a full time gambler but I'm a player, and if gamblers are addicted they'll have some favorite games to play, then what about the player who has also their favorite games can we really tell that they're also addicted to that certain game? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I was little curious about this earlier, for I have seen some replies / feedbacks on my previous post that seems questionable to me. Only positive thought can be given, any negativities will get deleted Actually not all gamblers are addicted in the first place which is a common misconception of many people. Then, addiction is different from favoritism because addiction is playing in a sense out of control in which he plays in no moderation and like treating gambling as a part of his life like he cannot barely live without him playing gambling. While on the other side, favoritism is playing in proper moderation in which even he have a favorite game he plays, he can stand on his own playing it on the right frequency, it is just that game is what he plays all over again at different time frames. Well, they might be link to each other if favoritism for a game goes out of control which makes it turn out into addiction. That is why whenever I play into the online casino I am currently into, I keep in mind of having my control on the favorite games I play from the variety of games they have on it so I won't come into an end of me getting addicted into the games i usually play.

It doesn't mean just because you have a favorite gambling game, you're totally addicted to it. That doesn't fit what addiction really means, addiction means that you keep on coming back to it and you can't stop yourself from liking it.
Having a favorite game can also mean that you like it because you know how to play that game and you are very familiar to it. Example, you have given a lot of choice to gamble with different games but the other options you have isn't so familiar to you, you've got to choose the favorite of yours which you mostly gamble. As long as you're not acting as an addicted to that game like you mostly gamble with your money until you dry out, you can't figure out that you are addicted to it.
