Between Physical and Online Gambling which makes a person more addicted

[GiftedMAN]

I will speak base on my own experience. I think physical gambling has the more tendency to make someone more addicted. When I was gambling in a physical gambling store, when it's that particular time I usually go to that office and I don't find myself there, I will be restless until I go to the gambling hall. And when I get there I find it very difficult to go home. But it wasn't like that when I started gambling online.

I think online kind of gambling is more difficult to stop compared to physical gambling. In physical gambling, one will need to visit a casino or betting shop just to bet. If we don't have the opportunity to go to a place where we can bet, we may not be able to make the bet. We can easily get addicted to gambling through betting online wife we are not disciplined when gambling. Since the emergence of cryptocurrency, people had been taking a easy step to gamble without the need to use fiat to fund account. Cryptocurrency had contributed to the expansion of gambling and along the way more gamblers are getting addicted.

Physical Gambling for sure. Here's why:

Online Casinos are enticing sure, but most of them offer nothing but visual appeal as well as the perks that they give out to their users (free spins, etc.) that eventually run out or expires. So when these amenities go away, I think I speak for everyone when I say we get this sudden realization that we should be doing even more important things than sinking hours into an online casino. On the other hand, this doesn't happen in a brick-and-mortal gambling institution. First off, you're enclosed in a secure space where it's just as hard to get in as it is to get out. They offer stuff like free drinks, free hotel stays, or whatever to some customers they deem are bleeders to make them stay even more within the casino. Lights are so bright so as to make sure you don't fall asleep or to disrupt your sense of time, and as far as I can remember the perks that they offer to their customers, new and existing, do not go away. So in the grander scheme of things Physical Casinos have a better capability to lure and secure customers for longer than online casinos, which apart from those things got its convenience feature as the only things that really set it apart from their physical counterparts.

I am sure that online gambling is much more addictive, this is because online gambling is easier and can be played anywhere and privacy is much safer than physical, it is also more cost effective than going to a casino building which definitely costs a lot of money. Apart from gambling, we are definitely provided with other entertainment that makes us happy. we spend money immediately. I think if it concerns addiction both can be addictive. I hope doing more positive things outside of gambling is the solution to all of this.

The online gambling was the favourite for many gambler because of many things like gambling winning will credited to the gamblers instantly after the winning.The gamblers no need to argue with the gambling site after the winning in the gambling site.The gamblers can check their game in the data base provided by the gambling site.The gambling give us money and the entertainment to have fun without any other friends to involve for the game.For the physical gambling,we need to bring our friends and sponsor for them.But the online gambling can be played along the world player without any delay.

[Slow death]

It is unlikely that a person will have a house very close to a physical casino, which means that for most people to be able to play in a physical casino they need to have a car to get to the physical casino and this is very difficult because the physical casino has opening hours and there are days when they are closed, so people don't play in physical casinos every day, especially people who have jobs, so it is very difficult to see many people who frequent physical casinos becoming addicted to gambling. These are very rare cases, I don't know if your friend has a job, I don't know if he's already been to see a doctor to find out if he's addicted to gambling or not, but I highly doubt that he plays every day in the physical casino

I also highly doubt that he will lose everything he has in physical casinos, this is because in physical casinos there is much more government control, so people play in moderation. Your friend may spend a lot of time talking about casinos, this does not mean that he is addicted to gambling. Now when it comes to online casinos the situation becomes very complicated, because it is very easy to have access to an online casino, and online casinos operate every day and at any time, meaning that many people can spend all day playing and the chances of becoming addicted are very high

In the online casino, players don't talk to anyone, which leads many people to become much more focused on the game and forget that there is life in the real world and that they need to interact with other people in the real world, as a result of which people isolate themselves from the society to stay in their room playing games, these people get depressed, they become addicted to games. So this comparison between physical casino and online casino is easy to see which one is more likely to make people addicted

I have been wondering with a little doubt in me between Physical and Online Gambling which makes a person prone to being addicted cause I have this friend of mine who doesn't know how to gamble online but when it comes to physical gambling he does it without compromising any of the consequences before hands.

Now it has made every little discussion that leads to argument an avenue to gamble, always ready to stake huge amount just to prove himself right. I consider this being addiction and I am always advising him to drop this lifestyle.

Do you think Online Gambling has the worst potential of making a person addicted?

Compared to physical gambling, online gambling accounts for more gambling addicts, the reason is simple because online gambling can be done anywhere, even when you are far from home, as long as you can connect to the internet then there will be no difficulties for you to play gambling, and various kinds of online gambling games also provide various addictions, there are also those who say that online gambling has extraordinary appeal, especially slot games, but it all comes back to each individual.

Physical casinos still have some restrictions on underage gamblers, which online casinos may not possess. Not all physical casinos operate 24 hours, unlike online casinos where people have 24 hours of access each day and can gamble in the comfort of their home. I understand the fun of participating in comps on physical casinos. But the important aspect of these comp clubs aside from free room or food, most of them are responsible gamblers. Those compliments aren't enough to make them addicted gamblers, but they can be gambling consistently. Online casinos have a high rate of addicted gamblers and minors who use the platform. Physical casinos have the feeling of playing with real humans and at some point, one gets weak and would want to go home. The physical casino settings are quite great in deceiving people to continue, even when the time and odds are against them. But, at some point, the gambler has the urge to sleep or go home. While traveling home he'd have a rethink on his gambling action if he made good decisions or predictions.

The online players don't have much time for reflection. They can only play till they fall asleep and then begin first thing in the morning. Due to the availability of the game. Not saying that offline casinos don't produce addicts, many of them get worse and play all their money at a go. Addiction to a physical casino can be too stressful compared to an online casino. Because the first name would be sticking around the casino each time their money is exhausted and runs immediately to the casino to gamble if he gains money. The healing process can be difficult too, compared to the online casino who would be around his home struggling with addiction. With the rate of internet users and online casino players, people who gamble online spend more time in, the same way they do on social media. From the statistics of online gambling precautions circulating online, it's certain to say that online gambling has produced more addicts recently than physical casinos.

That is true, either way of these 2, the addiction will depend on the person himself, how he will handle himself in front of his games.
Because if the gambler really wants to gamble no matter what, he will find a way to gamble. So the addiction varies from person to person.
It is how they nurture their gambling habits, and what are their goals why they are getting addicted.

When someone is addicted to gambling, he will not be able to handle himself because all that is on his mind is the desire to continue gambling and there is nothing else on his mind. Maybe he doesn't even care about himself or the people around him, his family. He will be busy with himself and gamble more often than interacting with others around him. This has become a serious gambling addiction where he can no longer think clearly that what he does in gambling has changed him completely.

He can be lucky when people around him come and warn him and even help him to get out of his gambling activities so that he can realize that he has made a fatal mistake. From there, help from other people can begin to be seen by him because he will feel that he has to start changing and get back on the right track. So whatever the casino, physical or online casino, it can still make someone addicted to gambling and there is a possibility that it is even worse for people who are addicted to online gambling because they can gamble wherever they want.

Both can be addictive. Because basically people are addicted to gambling because they feel they have to win at the game.
The more money they lose, the crazier they become addicted to gambling. Because their goal is revenge to win, this is something that will never end.
Including using all means to find gambling capital. Their lives will clearly be chaotic, because all that is on their minds is gambling.

Try to invite him to do more positive activities, for example sports so that his thoughts can be separated. Because gambling addiction can persist for years.

There are lots of positive activities that can be done to avoid gambling addiction, that's why it's important to have a job or other hobby activity besides gambling, not all the fun things are in gambling and don't just gamble to entertain yourself, the point is to do the best thing for you. divert your thoughts and views from gambling when you start to realize you are addicted.

Online and physical casinos can both be addictive if the gambler can't really control himself, especially if he spends too much time gambling, he will definitely get addicted easily, gambling has to have limits on when to gamble and when to stop gambling, that's very It is important therefore not to spend too long playing gambling, giving time to do other more positive activities will help avoid gambling addiction.

I think this always depends on someone's preferences and behavior towards gambling. Online or offline it does have the same results when one has no control of their emotions and are not responsible gamblers. Though not all type of gamblers are able to gamble online but it is still addictive and I have heard sad and victorius stories of gamblers online. Offline or physical gambling is a safe haven to most low budget gamblers in my observation.

It's a relentless machine, churning out addicts at an alarming rate, far surpassing its physical counterpart. Since internet platforms are easy and anonymous, self-control is often lost. The gamer stays hooked to the screen as night becomes day in an instant. This world targets the weak, defenceless, and unassuming. No doubt, the highs and lows are endless, with the lows often outweighing the highs

Despite this gloomy picture, online gambling remains lively. Not all is gloomy! Technology has changed entertainment, and internet gambling is a prime example. It's an exciting arena with more games than physical casinos. Think about: live poker and slot machine excitement from your couch! There's excitement in taking risks and maybe winning big. This world is exhilarating and full of pleasure and excitement if we tread wisely and responsibly!

Well, basically whether it's online or physical gambling, I still think that all gambling always has the potential for addiction for anyone, and for the problem of whether they will get addicted or not it really depends on their personality on how they address and treat their gambling activities. As you said it's true that wherever we gamble if we don't have good self-control and boundaries then obviously whether you gamble in online or physical casinos both always have the possibility to end up with addiction.

Honestly on this issue I wouldn't look at whether they can only gamble in online or physical casinos, the main point is that if they can't control themselves and their emotions then as we discussed above that the possibility of addiction can always happen.

Back in the days when Online casinos are still not available people tend to be addicted in local gambling sites , those who offered local games.

but now that there is online in which easier to access and easy to understand? yes it is more addicted now having enough time to spend and no need to bring physical money.

[alankasman]

Do you think Online Gambling has the worst potential of making a person addicted?

For me, both are the same regarding the addiction that players will feel. But it depends on the player to control themselves so they don't end up in a position of addiction.

Addiction will be felt when the player has run out of money. If the gambling game is played physically or what I call traditional gambling, he will realize when the money and all the capital he has brought run out. If he can't control his anger, maybe he will return to playing with new capital. This can also happen in online gambling types. You will feel addicted when the balance in your account runs out.
In fact, the two types of gambling are equally addictive.
The solution is to gamble responsibly.

[Gozie51]

Now it has made every little discussion that leads to argument an avenue to gamble, always ready to stake huge amount just to prove himself right. I consider this being addiction and I am always advising him to drop this lifestyle.

I would say physical gambling can be tempting to be addicted with this kind of attitude where your friend has found every aspect of live to be gambling with it but at the same time it is the type of gambling that he understands, like he does physical gambling and not online likewise others can do online gambling far more addicted than does in physical gambling.

In other words it depends on the type of preference for gambling, whether online or physical, you can be an addict if you don't control yourself because some other gamblers online are addicted to their phone logging in to their gambling account every now and then playing. I think the course for that is greed, when you want to make money.

[AicecreaME]

Both can be addictive. Lives are destroyed by both online and offline gambling. But I guess the factor that plays the most vital role is access. You cannot be in a brick-and-mortar casino all the time. At some point, you will have to leave; go home, go to work, attend to some other important things. Or the casino itself is closing. With an online casino, you can gamble anywhere anytime. You can easily multi-task. I have friends who gamble on their mobile phones while working.

Definitely.

Gambling can really destroy a person's life whether it may be online or physical casino. It knows no place or platform. Unlike a player who is sane enough to know and how to establish the boundaries in playing and betting. So it's really a you responsibility. You are responsible to your own decisions and actions that will constitute into either something good or bad outcome.

Although yes, I also agree that access is still a huge factor. It plays a vital role in being able to place bets. But it's also important to note that discipline is above everything. If you can control your urges to temptations, you can limit your gambling activity and gambling interaction.

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

I am sure that online gambling is much more addictive, this is because online gambling is easier and can be played anywhere and privacy is much safer than physical, it is also more cost effective than going to a casino building which definitely costs a lot of money. Apart from gambling, we are definitely provided with other entertainment that makes us happy. we spend money immediately. I think if it concerns addiction both can be addictive. I hope doing more positive things outside of gambling is the solution to all of this.

It's not much of online gambling or the physical gambling casinos that are present, but how individual gamblers were able to make use of them to gamble and get the best satisfaction in them by gambling responsibly or doing otherwise, do what are they ways we approach gambling both in physical and online, how do we behave, what are the things we do and we shouldn't have done when gambling, if we can deal with ourselves, there may be no reason for gambling addiction at the first place.

[gabbie2010]

Online gambling is more addictive from my own point of view unlike physical gambling, I think the fact that a gambler gambling anonymously would create an avenue to become addicted because there wouldn't be any check on the gambler, I always feel unease and in discomfort because of people who knew me might feel disappointed that I am into gambling whenever I visit any physical gambling shop that is why I won't get addicted to gambling because I would have limited my appearance to the shop or always go to the shop once in a while that is if there is no online gambling sites, however with online gambling I can place as many bet as possible until getting addicted.

[MainIbem]

Gambling has its own ways of controlling people it must not be online or offline when you focused your attention on one parts then you will see that your thinking will be channeled to that area, let say if you love using online gambling platform by using btc or any other altcoin to gamble you will remain and where no third party will have to know how regularly and how often you do gamble even though if you are addicted gambler no one will tell.

But for the physical shop or local betting shop you will meet all manners of people because you are handling the whole stuff all you need to do is just to meet operator who is in charge and give her you booklet to input your games after she will print a copy for you and then you leave, when you constantly visit there people will start looking at you as an irresponsible gambler or an addicted gambler who can't stay a day without gambling. In summary both can make you an addicted gambler it depends on how you control your greed level to remain a responsible gambler.
