Factors that contribute to form addictive gambling.

[dothebeats]

So actually what's wrong in this case is the man who is the character in this story, not even the gambling house. throughout my experience, especially in land-based casinos that have big names. the casino always provides the facilities and luxuries they provide to pamper their guests including free drinks. so, in this case the man is not responsible for himself.

As for other factors that contribute to forming gambling addiction, none other than yourself. how do you define gambling itself and how should you react to it. Apart from that, the factors of responsibility and self-control are also understanding which can prevent you from becoming a gambling addict.

Addiction is always a choice, and even if your environment facilitates the possible source of your addiction, you still have the choice on whether to give in or not. I've seen a lot of friends succumb to gambling addiction just because they are tempted on the prizes and haven't really thought of the consequences twice. Sure, you can blame all the booze for impairing your decision-making abilities, but at the end of the day the call will always be yours. I wholly agree to your statement that it is the gambler, not the game. Gambling houses will always try to lure you in and suck every last penny out of you, but if you know better you wouldn't fall prey to their tactics.

Self-control is a skill that not everyone can learn, especially when tempted with their desires and the things that make them go nuts. You can always gamble and enjoy, but the choice to sink deeper and deeper into it is also in your hands.

Absolutely.

And it can be applied to every aspect of your life. Eating the correct amount of food, doing exercise, working, etc.

If you apply self control to your entire life you will probably end up with an excellent quality of life.

Gambling all your money away is no way to live.

Everyone can learn self-control and it depends on their intentions. If that person wants to have good self-control, he will learn to control himself and not overdo it in gambling. This will help him not to spend more on gambling because he just wants to have fun gambling and some free time to gamble. And he can also avoid the gambling addiction that can happen to him anytime without even realizing it.

What other factors do you know contribute to form addictive gambling?

A casino with very Beautiful ladies as staffs or where beautiful women come to meet chill or meet men who can spend on them will definitely be of interest to men and they will spend more time in these casino's gambling than they would spend in other casinos. I personally will pick and spend more time in a casino with beautiful women than a casino with just unattractive faces. This can be a weird reason, but it can contribute to form addictive gambling.

the marketing strategy of using beautiful women to make casino customers feel at home has been around for a long time and is indeed one of the factors that causes addiction.
because if a man has a lot of money and likes the woman, he will meet the woman every day and be willing to spend the money in his pocket to gamble at the casino.
and if the woman knows that the man likes her, surely the woman has a way so that the man can spend even more money at gambling by means of spoiled seduction etc.
I agree that women in casinos are a contributing factor to addiction.

What you just explained has nothing to do with the cause of addiction in gambling, this is just a means to lure anyone to gamble, but will certainly not lead to addiction since you can get women everywhere. It could only lead to more patronage though but certainly not addiction. This is not particular to gambling alone, restaurants and bars also do it, but it doesn't cause addiction. When you finish your money at that moment, then it ends in most cases, but addiction is worse than that.

But at least it has succeeded in getting the gamblers to return to the casino many times and has indirectly made them addicted to gambling even though it's not yet too heavy.

As I initially iterated, this is not new in gambling and it's not peculiar to it as some other businesses use it for marketing, while addiction to it is left to you as a person. One thing I will like us to differentiate is that luring for more patronage is not an addiction, but you guys are getting it wrong. If they like, let them bring the most pretty ladies to casinos, those that will fall for it would, and those that will not fall for it will not, that's where personality comes in. Even those that fall for it have a higher percentage of not getting addicted since they are mainly there for the ladies, they might only be around the place for more time. But this does not work forever as they will get tired of the ladies over time.

Addiction is way more, it's regardless of any trap, it's about the personality getting addicted themselves, and you don't necessarily have to use anything to lure them into it.

Addictive gambling is very bad, because it makes you spend all your money on gamble like your life depends on it, some even sell their properties just to have money to gamble which they might end up loosing, l

You can avoid all these rejects by planning your gambling life adequately, just like when investing don't gamble with money that you know you'll be in need of. Gambling is even more riskier than investing so you should be extra careful of fund you allocate to it. Also avoid revenge gambling as it's one of the reasons people lose things that you are talking about.

Lack of planning is a factor I think contributions to addictive gambling because when you don't plan then you have planned to fail. With planning you know your limit so when you gamble to that limit you then force yourself to stop but if there's no planning in place you'll continue gambling.

Exactly gambling should be done with all sense of responsibility and to avoid losing much only gamble with spear money unless you are an ex-pat in the games, since gambling games are highly enjoyable one can easily get carried away and thereby being money that you did not have initial plans to bet with.

If one set a limit just like we set a limit in trading it will help a whole lot to avoid addictions.

But some gamblers fail to set this kind of limit and there by betting all their savings away, I think discipline is one of the characteristics to build before going into gambling if one wants to be a passive gambler.

Free alcoholic drinks, ease of withdrawal machines and ease of which to fund betting/gambling site wallets are serious contributory factors to addictive gambling.

What other factors do you know contribute to form addictive gambling?

IMO, all these factors are secondary factors. The main factor to form gambling addiction is to follow your desires, as long as you are in gambling you will be addicted sooner or later, because the human physiology or more specifically the greed forces you to gamble in every time you make a win, and oppositely to recover your losses in every time you make a loss, so it's a choice to be in or out gambling. It's normal for any casino to try to attract more users using many tricks like bonuses and giveaways as this is their business and they have licences to do that, but the first and last responsible of any loss should be the user themselves.

Every business wishes for more customers. And the biggest ones are heavily advertised almost everywhere... gambling, tobacco & alcohol, fashion, or any other industry. I agree that their "deep mind hitting" advertisement is just a secondary factor, what is important are our desires and what we like to do and follow. I guess we are all addicts to a certain level, by the definition "Addiction is the repeated involvement with a substance or activity" can include many things, but when addiction starts to affect someone's behavior is a serious addiction that should be treated, or it will make a lot of damage.

I believe that all is in our minds, there are vices everywhere around... and many of them will bring a lot of pleasures and entertainment, but there needs to be some control or we can easily be dragged into the fire, and fire can burn us a lot! I guess we all start with weak minds and hands but testing limitations and learning from mistakes are what make us stronger over time. Gaining control is not something that comes just like that, experience is a product of years of doing something and a making lot of mistakes.

Just don't ever extend your expectation on gambling because if you think that money is easy here then you will be fuck up with this so newbies should always realize or need to know that this was meant to be an option for entertainment only. That's why its good to listen to other people saying gamble responsibly so that we cannot feel how stressful playing this type of game knowing that we have 50% or less chance to win here.

I am quite enthusiastic about what you have to say. interesting, I'm happy to share thoughts.

Yes, we agree that environmental factors play an important role in facilitating our possibility of being affected by addiction, even for any addiction. but in truth, addiction is not a choice. because after all, it is habit that makes a person addicted. even then, we can peel it into several sections and criteria. it is excessive habits that make a person tend to experience things that lead to addiction.

however, in fact there is nothing that justifies this debate in the eyes of the wider community or in our community. In fact, some experts say that human psychological factors are very fragile and tend to have a strong interest in something that attracts their attention. in this case gambling, gambling houses and alcohol. I can't blame the liquor, because I know if I drink too much it can be very risky. Also remember, gambling houses are designed in such a way as to attract their customers and that is in no way against any applicable law. Except, the house is cheating. in fact, self-control is the key to high awareness. We are very aware that things that are gambling are closely related to the risks contained therein.

In essence, one must know the definition of gambling for himself. after that, we will get the key although there will always be a strong potential to be carried away even deeper. however, armed with experience, understanding and responsibility. believe me, you will only do something within reasonable limits.

Self-control isn't Forced nor inborn; it's learnt over time and acquired in due process -- if it's accepted. If anyone puts much interest and desire on gaming issues, they'll end up getting addicted. When you find too much pleasure in anything you do, it's becomes a major problems in due time.

Gambling all your money away is no way to live.

That's not what a regular gambler would agree on; they all have one feeling, which is -- the more they wager, the higher the chances of getting a big win someday. It takes special cautioning to convince an addicted gambler otherwise.
