With one you lose your health and money slowly but surely.
With the other you can instantly lose all your money and your whole life, but you also might not!

Hard choice, I just avoid both! Tongue

Better to avoid it because it is the best choice since both are dangerous especially if you are so addicted to it. Addiction is a kind of disease that is so hard to cure so prevention is better than cure. It's not just smoking or gambling it could also be alcoholic or drugs addiction. Either one of it is still dangerous for us.

I think gambling addiction as its a serious illness which might lead to destruction of your health also.

I think not, and gambling addiction is not the same as cigar addiction when it comes to its effects. It is not related, and it is a different aspect, so I don't agree with what you've stated. There are a lot of effects of gambling addiction, but not to the point that it will give you an unhealthy lifestyle. It is possible but for those who are not knowledgeable enough about gambling

The comment below is from another topic, but since it seems highly appropriate here, I'm posting it:

I have seen worse scenario. Addicted gamblers in my opinion should be seen as mentally unstable patients and their actions can be frightening. Sometime back I heard the story of a man that killed himself, wife and kids because he lost a game and felt terrible,didn’t know how to stand the shame and loss and the best he felt he could do was to eradicate his total family, it’s that Bad

Now to the one-million-dollar question

That is, what should one smoke to go all postal like this? As far as I know, weed in general makes people more friendly and outgoing overall (that's why it is considered a recreational drug by some), so it should be something really heavy to produce a similar effect. What could that be?

I can probably say that the worse it cigar addiction because if you have been addicted to the cigarettes then it would be so hard for you to stop it simply because your body will always find the nicotine of the cigarette that it's been taking for a long time, while addiction in gambling can brought you into many bad activities especially if you don't have money or funds that may support your gambling vices and it would be hard also to stops.
But if gambling addiction has been a practice to you then it would be the same as cigar addiction which you can't barely handle? but we have the same answer about cigar addiction is much extreme than the gambling addiction. But it would depend up to the situation if the result has been changing. We've seen stories here that were shared that they came up to the extent of doing unusual things because of gambling addiction.

Cigar addiction will only affect yourself particularly your health, but in gambling addiction it can do much worst depending on how addicted you are. Some gamblers (especially those who seem out of their mind already) are committing crimes because of desperation to get back their losses. So it depends on the extent of addiction, we know being addicted to any deed is bad for us.

Gambling addictions can be reversed by therapy and with the help of the people around the gambler. Once they've moved on from it, there's still a second chance. The effects of cigarette addiction on your body most of the time is irreversible. Even if you decide to eventually quit smoking, you can't remove the effects of it in your body, like cancer. Just by that, addiction to the former is of course more fatal.

I guess we really can see differences in the said two addiction. Although it's a fact with what you've said and it's a true scenario that happens elsewhere because of the known cause. Those activities you've said were the 'unusual things' that I've mentioned and it's very sad to see that there were gamblers that are coming to that scenario without realizing themselves that it's already too much for them.

Here in India, cigarettes cost around $0.25 per piece or $3.00 per pack. So at the most, you may spend a few hundred USD on cigarettes if you have an addiction. In all probability, the financial damage may be insignificant. On the other hand, gambling addiction can cause your financial ruin in a matter of few hours and you may never be able to recover from it.
