Do you think that this is aperfect analogy of how gambling addiction starts?

[Ultegra134]

That's right mate and we can not deny the fact that human are truly emotional and that's the reason why other casino will take an advantage in that which is the owner/facilitator and programers on a casino find some weakness of ours gamblers in order to catch some attentions and make us fall into them and play with them and then also once we loss they will earn a lot of money which is this is a good marketing strategy.

Casinos take advantage of human nature; whether we like it or not, at some point we'll eventually lose money. How we react to it is a whole different story. It's okay to feel frustrated, irritated, and gloomy; no one is happy to lose money. Controlling those feelings is a must, because this is what casinos strive for: an outburst of emotions that will send you into a spiral of making new bets without giving too much thought. Physical and online casinos are manipulative, each with different approaches, but both share the same goal: to make money.

This is why it's vital to self-control; keeping your balances low and making it impractical to go overboard is one of the ways I've implemented myself in case something like this ever happens.

Addiction can also set in when a gambler has no other job aside gambling.  No other hobby aside gambling. This can be disastrous as the gambler will channel all his time, attention and resources to gambling.  With time,  all he will think about will be gambling and there are every tendencies that he will become addicted to what he channels his mind to always. To avoid addiction,  every gambler needs to have other hobbies and jobs where they can channel their attention to too.

Yes, that could also be one reason why people easily become addicted because of not having a job and also not having other hobbies so they are more focused on gambling. Personally, luckily I have lots of activities or hobbies that I can do, for example going fishing with my family or just play football with my family or close friends, so that it doesn't remind me of gambling.

On average, people who are very closed to the outside world tend to be addicted to gambling because they don't have other activities outside the home so they are more likely to gamble on a computer or cell phone at home to look for activities in online gambling, but for people who are very busy like me it might be difficult because every day you have to work, you don't have much time to gamble on weekdays except on weekends, that's why people who are addicted tend to be under the age of 25 compared to over that age, just my guess, the point is to often do activities that keep yourself busy because it can avoid gambling addiction.

I think balance and self-awareness are vital. Gambling may be fun if done responsibly. However, it becomes a problem when done alone. Why do young people get addicted? Perhaps their lack of broad interests and impulse control are to blame.

But busy people like you have a natural shield: your hobbies and duties. It shows the value of a balanced life. We must promote healthy gambling and a variety of activities. This promotes mental health and a balanced view on gaming.

Gambling should be one of several leisure activities, not the main focus. Addiction risk reduction may require this balanced strategy.

[Outhue]

The man in the video is right, if you are starting out on gambling do not have the mind of making money from it, do it as yes I am ready to lose this amount of money today, the guarantee of winning is far away from gambling itself, you will only get addicted if you try hard.

It's not your job where your skills are the only thing you got to get paid monthly, there is no income stream in gambling, don't even bother learning some strategy, as a gambler you are automatically at risk of losing your own guide one day and start risking it all on gambling, this is why the time and energy you spent on gambling should be limited.

So limited that you won't feel like you can't do without gambling everyday, if you are feeling like this, it means you are already slowly getting addicted and you need to stop, most addiction happens because people want to make money and they choose to use gambling, where it's already almost impossible to make money.

But I gotta disagree that that's the whole picture.  Sure, staying busy might make it less likely for some folks to end up with a gambling problem.  However there's usually more to it than that. 

Gambling addiction is complicated, with lots of things playing into it.  Plus, people struggled with getting addicted to gambling even before everything went online and  so while keeping occupied helps for some, it doesnt fix the underlying problem or rule out addiction.

You are correct but on the contrary I have seen those who are fully occupied and devoted for their task, or place of work and yet still turn to gambling addicts and many of them can never be trusted with company's funds or can not hold a financial position otherwise the organization money could be used for gambling. Becoming a gamble addicts doesn't matter if you are so occupied or having a work at the moment what happens is that gambling addicts is a natural thing that always come gradually to the person but without them knowing that are tuning into addiction.

However, those who are so devoted in work are the people who easily gots addicted and do not gamble responsibly due to their regular inflow of cash and they felt they can easily meet up whenever they ran out of cash at times they run into getting loan to satisfy their gambling activity for days or week even per month as they may have planned it.

But on the other hand to be honest I personally quite agree with the idea that the attraction to engage in gambling activities usually likes to come when we are in a boring situation, I have experienced something like that even though basically as you said that there are still other possibilities, yes I agree because there is something out of control that always cannot be predicted regarding several possibilities.

But I think having a lot of busyness is one of the effective ways to avoid addiction, because as we know that the desire to gamble always comes from our minds so that when we have free time, our brains and minds will look for some activities that are quite interesting and one of them allows gambling to be an activity to fill time when the situation is like that. Although you think this method cannot fully minimize unwanted things such as addiction, for me this is one of the most effective ways because honestly I was able to recover from gambling addiction by adding several other activities in my life which certainly made my mind distracted from the attraction to gambling and slowly out of the addiction zone.

[synchronym]

People who are addicted to gambling will never try to understand what is right or wrong. When it comes to gambling, they always feel that the decision they make is the right one. Maybe many people are making their lives happy and peaceful in this gambling event. Many or those tides are actually becoming destitute. There are many who have chosen gambling as a profession. People who are addicted to gambling think that they will earn money by gambling, it is seen that many lose double the amount of money they want to earn by gambling.

[ethereumhunter]

Whoever it is before engaging in gambling should have prepared many precautions as you mentioned with self-control and some restrictions, but strangely there are still those who completely ignore some of these important points, whether they don't know it or what, honestly I don't know but what is certain in my opinion is that it happens because they are too focused on winning opportunities that make them come in a hurry and barely do research first about the dangers or risks of what is in gambling itself.

That's right, gamblers who are completely unaware of the risks involved in gambling will only continue to play excessively or aggressively for the sake of getting a big win, that's what always happens so of course it's not the victory they get but instead they suffer a number of losses consciously and unconsciously. In my opinion, it is not that easy for them to stop in the stage of involvement that can still be said to be too early, they still have great enthusiasm and some of the defeats they have experienced may not be too concerned, it is because of the great confidence in the hopes they have put on winning. On the other hand, it is certainly true that this is the kind of gambler that casinos want because they will easily spend their money on something uncertain.

It should be like that but they don't make the necessary preparations and instead gamble without any preparation. They ignore all the things that are needed in gambling so that when they are too focused on gambling, they don't see that they haven't been able to win at all. They only want to chase the win and ignore the losses they have suffered. They should be aware that winning from gambling is not as easy as they imagine and if they experience loss, they can think about immediately ending the gambling game. They could return to the casino another day after resting. This is to reduce the desire to recover previous losses because this will occur in gamblers so that they will want to return to gambling again.

Those who are not aware of the risks posed by gambling will only continue gambling and not think that they have lost a lot of money in previous gambling games. They can remain enthusiastic about gambling, but they also have to see the fact that it is still difficult for them to win, so they need to regulate their gambling activities and not increase their gambling hours. That will only make them unable to control themselves because they desire to gamble longer to chase the win. Wise gamblers don't want to do that because they think it's not worth doing because it could lead to more losses that they might not realize. As most gamblers, we must be able to realize that gambling is only necessary in moderation, and there is no need to chase wins or recover losses because that will only cost more money.

If they come with such an approach then obviously I think there is something to be suspicious of, or I mean I should suspect their goals, I am sure that they come  not for fun but only focus on winning, so instead of implementing some precautions but they are busy with finding many ways to get a win. If the involvement  is not too long then I think losing is not the end of the world, or it means that they will not mind the defeat because they still have a great passion for winning, and they will really feel the loss when the defeat really dominates.

As I said above and I think they will really realize or at least gain awareness when their financial condition is getting worse due to this activity, honestly on the other hand I think a situation like this is quite natural especially for beginners who have just come who certainly still have a high enthusiasm for a victory, especially if they always see other people who can get a victory, then obviously indirectly it increasingly brainwashes them to continue to get lost in the black hole of gambling, I think they will be able to really realize when they have experienced many problems that can certainly make them experience mental and psychological pressure.

If they only focus on winning, they should be prepared to be disappointed because they will see defeats coming more often than wins. Well, they may be able to see the wins coming, but the number is not greater than the losses that come, so they will still experience more and more losses. If they are more busy looking for ways to win, they will not be able to enjoy gambling as entertainment because they are obsessed with winning and it will become a bigger problem if they don't realize it soon. Besides that, their losses will increase the longer they gamble, so if they don't stop immediately, they could really run out of money.

Well, hopefully, they can really realize that their financial condition is getting worse, and they have to stop their gambling activities immediately. Otherwise, they will go bankrupt because they gamble too often and experience more losses. They must be honest with themselves so that awareness will come to them and say that they must immediately stop gambling. And this is indeed related to mental and psychological stress problems but they still have the possibility of leaving gambling if they want. But it depends on the intentions they have because most gamblers still want to gamble and still try to win some gambling games. This is what makes it difficult for many gamblers to quit gambling and even leave gambling forever.

The fact is that in gambling, especially those that rely purely on luck such as slot machines, for example, the more often you are involved in this type of gambling, it is clear that I will agree with your idea that the more losses you will experience, because after all it is very difficult to be able to make the number of wins more than the number of losses if we basically only rely on luck which always cannot be predicted when it comes, And that is why we must always have self-control and some limits when engaging in gambling, none other than because this activity is very involving mentally and psychologically which means that when your mental and psychological disorders due to not being able to accept defeat then obviously then emotions will play a role and finally you do some actions out of control one of which is by putting a larger amount and losing everything.

It is very difficult to deal with gambling as entertainment if they initially come with too much focus on winning, in the end some limits will be forgotten which of course falls further and further into a cycle of addiction that has no limits.

That's what I feel when I play slots. When I lose 100 spins, it makes me addicted and want to keep pressing the button, especially if I still have money in my balance. When playing slots, I also often buy the Bonus feature because I see several other friends who also buy the Bonus feature that can get big multipliers. It makes me curious and I always want to try it, but I also adjust it to the amount of balance I have because if it's not enough to buy the Bonus feature, I don't force myself by depositing more money. Yes, winning from slot games is difficult because it requires luck, which can only sometimes be with us. In the first 100 spins, luck can give you a decent multiplier. But there is no guarantee that luck will come in the second 100 spins so we should be able to limit ourselves when playing slots. Don't let us experience mental and psychological disorders that can cause us to think about slot games and hope to win by getting a big multiplier.

We must continue to try to treat gambling as entertainment because that is what we must do if we still want to gamble. If you find it difficult, maybe you need to rest for some time so you don't focus on winning from gambling because it is difficult to get. We must be able to control our gambling activities so that we don't experience any problems during gambling and after gambling. Otherwise, we will not be able to make gambling entertainment.

I think it's not only you who experience such things, but I also honestly may even often feel great disappointment like that when I used to be actively gambling, indeed this type of gambling I think is more interesting and which is currently popular in the general public. One of the things that makes me or maybe most people feel attracted to playing because there is a very large chance of winning such as the maximum win per one game and that is a very large amount, but on the other hand casinos are very smart because they provide something that looks tempting but behind the scenes they apply algorithms that are very difficult to crack, simply put the slot is very tempting but very difficult to conquer and I think that's one of the things that makes more people addicted to this type of gambling. I admit that I did come with the wrong mindset and approach due to being instigated by some of my friends but finally somehow now I have started to get bored of gambling and my interest has almost disappeared.

On the other hand, in my opinion, buying a bonus feature will drain your balance very quickly and for the problem of winning is also still not certain, sometimes the spin is very bad, so I prefer to play casually and wait for the free bonus to drop. In conclusion, what you say is right, friends, slots are very dangerous so don't let us overdo it and finally get carried away, this game is very tempting but it's just a trick, so we need to be very careful not to get addicted.

We see a huge chance of winning because we have seen it or often seen it on social media. There are people or our friends who share their winning moments when playing gambling, which makes us curious to try it. And when we try it, it turns out it doesn't match what we imagined so we only get defeat. But that doesn't stop us from thinking that we shouldn't gamble too often. But this actually makes us gamble more often, and we don't see how we can control ourselves when gambling, which, in the end, we become addicted to gambling. Many of us come with the wrong mindset and approach, but after we can learn from the experiences we have had and also from the experiences of others, we realize those mistakes and can correct them.

That's how I felt when I bought the bonus features. There is indeed a chance to get a big multiplier, but we still need to guarantee we can get it. I now rarely buy bonus features and play using automatic spins more often, although I still use manual spins sometimes. Maybe if I had more money, then I would buy the bonus features up to two or three times and that would also buy the smallest bonus feature

Curiosity and great desire to win are still factors that cause gambler to keep trying and always risk his money even though he knows what risks he faces and what will happen.
Losing alone will never be able to make gambler stop and try to think well and make various efforts to try to suppress this desire until he is truly able to control himself over his curiosity and ambition to win.
Indeed, when they are filled with curiosity and the desire for achievement to win, gambling activities will increase significantly, making it difficult for them to respond to each gambling activity and become gambling addict.
However, there are also several ways or efforts that can be made namely with mindset, when gambler has a good mindset and only considers other people wins as ordinary luck, then you can be sure that there will be no desire to get the same win.
It just that it seems like this is very difficult to do and most gamblers still think that they can also get the wins that other people get and make them ambitious to apply it.

I have also experienced the same thing but after studying everything well and being able to suppress the desire to win can make me have much better mindset.
I would rather forget about opportunities and play only according to my abilities.
Buying bonus features may still be considered as increasing your chances of winning, but when you really realize it, the thought you have is that it is wrong, buying bonus features is very wasteful.
In the end, you can accept every gambling result and not try to spend more money to increase your chances of winning by purchasing bonus features.

[Kakmakr]

You only need to look at how slots are designed ... to understand how you are getting bamboozeled. I call it the "frog in the pot" scenario, where you slowly turn up the cooking temperature, so that the frog does not realize that he is being cooked.

Have you noticed how your money are drained over a long period, without you realy noticing it? You play.... lose a little, win a little ... but your balance slowly goes down over time... before you know it, it is all gone.. and you deposit again.

[Jody.Drummer]

That's how I felt when I bought the bonus features. There is indeed a chance to get a big multiplier, but we still need to guarantee we can get it. I now rarely buy bonus features and play using automatic spins more often, although I still use manual spins sometimes. Maybe if I had more money, then I would buy the bonus features up to two or three times and that would also buy the smallest bonus feature

To be honest, when I first got to know this type of slot gambling, what I was looking for was the maximum amount of winnings, which of course, as you say, the multiplier is very large, I saw that some of my friends could always get it but somehow I myself was very difficult, usually the maximum winnings were more in the bonus spin feature, so I often immediately bought the bonus feature and without waiting for the bonus to drop for free, to be honest I spent a lot of money but it was very difficult to get what my friends got.

So that situation is a situation where I started to get bored with this type of gambling, big wins really didn't happen for me and after that my interest in gambling began to decrease which finally now I rarely gamble. What you do is better my friend, basically it is better for us to play without expecting anything, because if we put expectations it is the same as we increase the disappointment at the end of the session when it turns out that the result is losing, and also because if we are in a lucky situation then obviously the victory will come by itself.

Curiosity and great desire to win are still factors that cause gambler to keep trying and always risk his money even though he knows what risks he faces and what will happen.
Losing alone will never be able to make gambler stop and try to think well and make various efforts to try to suppress this desire until he is truly able to control himself over his curiosity and ambition to win.
Indeed, when they are filled with curiosity and the desire for achievement to win, gambling activities will increase significantly, making it difficult for them to respond to each gambling activity and become gambling addict.
However, there are also several ways or efforts that can be made namely with mindset, when gambler has a good mindset and only considers other people wins as ordinary luck, then you can be sure that there will be no desire to get the same win.
It just that it seems like this is very difficult to do and most gamblers still think that they can also get the wins that other people get and make them ambitious to apply it.

I have also experienced the same thing but after studying everything well and being able to suppress the desire to win can make me have much better mindset.
I would rather forget about opportunities and play only according to my abilities.
Buying bonus features may still be considered as increasing your chances of winning, but when you really realize it, the thought you have is that it is wrong, buying bonus features is very wasteful.
In the end, you can accept every gambling result and not try to spend more money to increase your chances of winning by purchasing bonus features.

It is natural for a gambler to have curiosity and the desire to win because no gambler wants to experience loss, especially if the loss gets bigger. But if the loss gets bigger, it should be because of his own fault for not being able to control himself well so that he has to experience such a big loss. Every gambler has the right to control himself and prevent experiencing big losses. Unfortunately, many gamblers do not pay attention to this and only follow their ego so that they cannot stop themselves from gambling. Besides that, curiosity and the desire to win can increase when he has experienced so many losses that he really can't stop gambling. And that's where he will become addicted to gambling and if on that day, he spends his money, he will come back another day because he is still curious and wants to avenge his losses. This is something that many gamblers really need to be aware of because gambling more often can trigger their desire to continue gambling and in the end, they will become a gambler who is addicted to gambling without realizing it.

It's not just you who has done it because I think many gamblers do it because they really want to win from gambling but they are not able to control themselves well. If we talk about buying a bonus feature, it will not always give a big win because it can get a big multiplier. But it can give an immediate big loss because in buying that bonus feature, we use money that we should be able to enjoy to play gambling casually. But because we chase the win by buying bonus features, we immediately experience big losses and even lose more money from buying bonus features. We should try to accept all the results we receive from gambling and not try to chase the win because it will definitely be difficult.

To be honest, when I first got to know this type of slot gambling, what I was looking for was the maximum amount of winnings, which of course, as you say, the multiplier is very large, I saw that some of my friends could always get it but somehow I myself was very difficult, usually the maximum winnings were more in the bonus spin feature, so I often immediately bought the bonus feature and without waiting for the bonus to drop for free, to be honest I spent a lot of money but it was very difficult to get what my friends got.

So that situation is a situation where I started to get bored with this type of gambling, big wins really didn't happen for me and after that my interest in gambling began to decrease which finally now I rarely gamble. What you do is better my friend, basically it is better for us to play without expecting anything, because if we put expectations it is the same as we increase the disappointment at the end of the session when it turns out that the result is losing, and also because if we are in a lucky situation then obviously the victory will come by itself.

When I play this slot, I don't even think about winning and just increase and decrease the winning amount if I lose and I feel bored hahaha. Finally, I thought about just placing the smallest bet, and finally, that's what I've done until now. Honestly, it really helped me in reducing the amount of losses, and I didn't lose all the deposit money I made, and I was also able to play a bit longer. Indeed, I once got a multiplier, but it wasn't as big as what other gamblers got, and to this day, I'm actually still curious about when I can get that big multiplier. But I don't think about it too often and still limit my gambling activities because I don't want to see my money run out just for gambling.

For that reason, after I thought about it on several occasions, I just try to gamble moderately and not chase wins or recover losses because I know that will only make me experience bigger losses. By playing enough gambling, at least it can help me enjoy gambling in my spare time and not think about winning. I think luck will definitely come to me later and I can only be patient while waiting for my turn to come to get lucky and be able to win some money.

Yes and that means that everyone has different experiences in each approach to gambling and maybe you are one of the people who is not too focused on looking for wins, especially in this type of slot gambling, but in my opinion lately more people are having problems. because of this type of gambling, because as we discussed earlier, this type of gambling can really easily lead gamblers into the addiction zone due to the many things that look very tempting there.

Putting the smallest amount or whatever, especially what we are able to account for, is indeed much better as you do, because usually gamblers always start actions beyond their control when they are unable to accept the result of losing in the sense that they put an amount they cannot accept to lose and Of course, after that, emotions will play a role and maybe you already know what they will do next, yes, that's right, after that they will do the action of chasing losses to reach the break-even point until finally they are trapped in a cycle like addiction. So preventive measures in any way, whether it's reducing the budget or reducing the time spent gambling, are really recommended for safety or at least minimizing the number of losses, yes that's right, everyone will definitely feel a winning situation and they just have to wait patiently.
