The History Of Gambling.

[pakhitheboss]

Actually that is what we should do but unfortunately, not many of us can really leave gambling forever. Some of us still go back to gambling and play our favorite games, although some don't often gamble anymore.

In my opinion, those who leave gambling are the ones who have only lost their money in the early days. The next are those who make a profit but lose everything after greed takes over them. The last ones are those who have lost everything because of gambling addiction and now want to leave it. Other than that I have not heard anyone leaving this addiction so easily.

Why we have to leave gambling at the end where we take it as for fun only ! I think there is nothing wrong when we take its only for entertainment purpose except when a person going to addicted on it . I think the stealing of happiness and health that you speak of will only happen to gamblers who cannot control themselves.

Addiction usually comes from excessive cravings. When gamblers get overly greedy they tend to lose their wealth. There will be no negative consequences for those who gamble in the hope of entertainment.

In many cases gambling addiction comes from losing. Gambler deserve that when they lose large amount of money, they have to gamble to recover their lost assets. Because that lost money is not very easy to earn out side of gambling.

Once a time gambling was centered around a large social event. Gambling house were made temporarily in places where there was a lot of crowd. But later on it became very popular with the people and occasionally gambling was organized. At that moment it starts to expand massively and settles well. Then it is also get legalized. And whenever gambling is conducted over the internet, it creates a world wide frenzy. Nowadays, people are gambling comfortably from their home.

History of gambling goes back to the ancient times.
Even in religious books there is so much references of the gambling - Hindu and chinese are very fond of gambling and they are good in it too.

For me I think there are different history of gambling which depends on era and region.
When you look at the asia history, you will see that it's quest different from the European gambling history and that of Egypt which is africa.
Difference regions with different history but looking at era and the type of gambling can make it different.

That is quite true, however there are also some similarities among the different regions and idiosyncrasies that you mention. While the details of the gambling and the games are very varied, particularly if you consider the games played in China and the fart East that seem to be quite different from the rest, the concept of betting as "setting a prediction" is common to all and very old.

Without a doubt that greed is one of the main components which explains why gambling addiction is actually a thing, however another very important reason is the laziness of people.

We know that obtaining money can be quite challenging for the majority of the people, but those people see in gambling not only a way of earning money but they see it as a way to do so without any effort and this makes gambling even more attractive in their eyes, however they are completely wrong because over several centuries there have been studies done about this and it is basically impossible to beat the house no matter how lucky we may believe we are.

Absolutely correct reasoning that laziness is the main aspect in the issue of gambling addiction.  Of course, who would refuse to just press a button and get paid for it.  Easier earnings for a lazy person can not even imagine.  And in my head, of course, the thought of the possibility of such an easy income is spinning all the time. 
And of course everyone understands that it is possible to lose, but hope still makes a person play.

And of course, the entire world history of the development of gambling is built on such principles.

What do we think of gambling and what is our major concernment. Because i what to tell you that gambling is not bad and it can be condenmeable, i don't blame people that quits alcohol and take over gambling as best option because when you are looking at it, you will see that gambling is what is going on everywhere and especially casino gambling many people is now using it as best option. So for me i can not leave gambling because i know my what in the gamblling.

Everything that is a lot is bad and especially if the entire effect on it the person is becoming bad. That's why those that don't gamble tell us that gambling is bad and we as gamblers will say that it's not that bad and it will base on the person's activeness and perspective on gambling.
Especially these days, gambling is everywhere because almost all of the people in the world have their own smart devices, be it on smartphones, gadgets, PC or laptops.

You have a point in this matter, it seems that I was not a gambler before and I didn't really like to gamble because I also thought that gambling was bad. Because I see a lot of people get addicted to it and end up ruining their lives.

But when I got into cryptocurrency, I learned how to gamble, but even though I gamble here there is a limit attached. because that's what is important for a responsible gambler to have self-control. If it always helps me, I can't say it's bad. Why the lottery? It is also a type of gambling but it is legally operated here in our country because it also helps the government and its charity program to help the needy.

So what you said is correct, when too much is bad and when not enough is also bad, we should always do it in moderation.

There should be moderation in everything you do in life. There is a saying that too much of everything is bad. Even if you are doing something good, when you over do it, it will no longer be good. I personally have a budget for my weekly gambling, and when I exhaust my budget I will respect myself and leave, then wait for next week.

In many cases gambling addiction comes from losing. Gambler deserve that when they lose large amount of money, they have to gamble to recover their lost assets. Because that lost money is not very easy to earn out side of gambling.

You are right because after losing it makes him gamble again and again hoping to win back the lost money. Here self control matters a lot. However I think it all starts with the winnings, when a gambler wins his first gamble from a site he becomes a bit of an addict and then dares to invest large sums of money only to find himself losing.  So I think it is very important to keep our self control here, and if gambling can be take as entertainment purpose then I think this problem will not exist.

This is true but for the others it was the opposite. They will only gamble more when they are winning because they think they are lucky that day but when they lose, they will consider that as a sign that they are unlucky so they will not try to play further. I think I can believe on this philosophy because many times I try to avenge my previous deposits but I can't seem to be successful.

My losses are only adding up which makes me more annoyed. Self-control really matters in gambling no matter what sides you are up to because if you don't have it then you will only find yourself losing. Even if you say that you are only gambling for fun and don't mind losing. You will still end up burning more hours in front of your screen or on the machine and you will forget to do other things which are necessary.

I believe that is chasing losses and not gambling addiction.  As far as I know, an addicted gambler does not care about the result, all he wants is to gamble and gamble until their 24 hours is consumed sitting in front of a gambling machine.  As the description says, gambling disorder is an uncontrollable urge to gamble, it doesn't say chasing losses elsewhere.

Then let me ask you this.

If those addicted person do only play and wont be minding about losses or winnings then what is the main intent on why a certain person continue to play? Is it just for fun? Impossible.
They would be always chasing up to win and whenever they do lose then they would be basically be thinking about breaking even those losses at least and as long they do
have money into their pockets then for sure they would really be still continue to play no matter what.Addiction does have it all when it comes to those kind of intents which
is the cause of such actions.

Let me ask you a question, what do you call an act when a person goes back to gambling to recover his losses?  Then tell me what is the definition of a gambling addiction?

As you can see gambling addict does not need any reason to gamble.  They have gambling disorder which is the uncontrollable urge to gamble.  Gambling addicts are already broken so they do not need any reason for their gambling activity.  And a gambling addict playing to recover losses is just an illusion because they will continue to gamble after recovering their losses until they lost it again.

[Shamm]

There is a reason why a gambler is called an addict first once a gambler can not control himself or herself to play because of greediness and aiming for revenge for his/her losses. And what we saw in our society right now some of the gambler spend more time in gambling than their job, so they called a gambling addict.  Spending money in gambling machines has a good percent of winning so without a doubt those gambler get addicted these kind of game.

And that what makes a person addicted because he do really keep on convincing himself that he could really able to recover losses.When you are addicted then the emotion or the urge on playing
is really there which you do get some point that they might not care on what would happen but one thing that they would be having in mind mainly which is to make money,money,money.
Just come to think that if a certain gambling addict doesnt really have hopes on winning money then that would simply lost up their interest on playing.
Its just common sense.

And whenever gambling is conducted over the internet, it creates a world wide frenzy. Nowadays, people are gambling comfortably from their home.

In my native country, games of chance, casinos and casino games were held privately in houses and villas, they were meetings of very select groups where they left all their problems and went to play and enjoy the slot machines and roulettes, this they did. because the country lasted many years with a law that prohibited games of chance.

When we join certain events that are not so old, each country has its own history regarding betting, there is a lot of evidence that people go to casino games to have a different time, betting gives that adrenaline they want feel, that's history for me. , many countries that have prohibited the game must have their methods to survive and play.

In each country there is a different story and that is added to the fact that it is destined with a very precious asset that is bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, something that everyone wants to acquire, and they see it in a very simple way playing, some are filled with glory while others see how your money disappears, I think there are many ramifications within the world of gambling.

Let us just agree to disagree, and I really agree with you that one of the triggers of gambling addiction is the desire to chase losses, and then they got lost (addicted) along the process.

Spending money in gambling machines has a good percent of winning so without a doubt those gambler get addicted these kind of game.

There is a percentage to win but I think it isn't a good percentage because there are far more players who lost than won.  Even in history, we can find lots of people suffer losses in gambling while only a few had a good wins.

So what you said is correct, when too much is bad and when not enough is also bad, we should always do it in moderation.

There should be moderation in everything you do in life. There is a saying that too much of everything is bad. Even if you are doing something good, when you over do it, it will no longer be good. I personally have a budget for my weekly gambling, and when I exhaust my budget I will respect myself and leave, then wait for next week.

This is a good point, for millions of years human lived in an environment in which everything was scarce, however in this age in which we live there is an environment in which even a person with a small salary can afford so much stuff that this creates a new risk, people now need to exercise moderation on what they do, because if they don't then they can easily develop issues that will be very difficult to overcome, and one of those issues is without a doubt gambling addiction.

That is correct - every country has a different story. But everyone want to have money - and that story is common and for having money..
They switch to gambling. So that they become rich fortnight.
In every part of the world most people dream to become rich - some take the right channel the other takes the wrong channel.

Normally, everyone wants to have money but must find a good way to earn or make money instead of gambling because that will not give them money and can even make them lose more money without realizing it. Indeed, some people can get money from gambling but the number is not as many as people who lose from gambling. This must make us think again about continuing our desires. It is better to look for sources of income from other places than to use gambling because the results are not worth what we will use.

[maydna]

one of the triggers of gambling addiction is the desire to chase losses, and then they got lost (addicted) along the process.

This is what makes many gamblers end up getting addicted because they want to recover their losses and keep trying. They never think about how much money they will use to chase losses and how much they are prepared to lose. Even though, in the end, their losses are getting bigger, they still don't stop, making them even more addicted to gambling, and it is very difficult to stop it.

I would blame everything first and foremost on the person who is addicted, has all the responsibility and is to blame because a person knows that games of chance always have the advantage over the casino and if we start to see these things they are not to be forgotten, if a person wants to win it is because he is always looking for revenge against the casino, and that is a big mistake, usually when a person becomes this insistent in a casino, what he does is accelerate losing more, if a person has a losing streak the best thing is to cut that streak, and the easiest way is to not play anymore, at least wait a few hours and then go back and play a little, never looking for revenge.

The worst mistake of a player is to try to look for profits when he has had a big loss and this is a question of maturity, because it is known that he will not have profits, that is something that nobody understands but they insist and want to turn it positive, the best thing is to assume the loss and that's it, to come later to try to play vr that you can achieve, the best thing is to always allocate a balance to lose, never think that you will win, the premise of every game in gambling is to enjoy and have fun while maximum, I think that way you won't feel any pressure to win or recover, well at least that's what I think and it's going well for me.
