I was wondering what makes someone transition from a casual gambler to a gambling addict. Here are six reasons I've identified. - To find an alternative full-time earning source
- Chasing Losses
- Lack of Alternative Income earning opportunities
- Using Gambling as an Excuse for Personal/Profesional Problems
- lDream of Winning Big
- An excuse
- Setteling ongoing debt
If you have anything else then do write it down on this thread. This thread is only to help anyone who is into daily gambling realize the incident that led to compulsive gambling or everyday gambling. This is a self-moderated thread that means if anyone here wants to vent out his or her frustration then they are welcome. Let's hear it so that everyone knows.

One other reasons I’ve seen that has led to someone being addicted to gambling with out even realizing it is “not being conscious of their gambling activity”. There are people who constantly gamble - to them it feels normal or it fees like they haven’t spent too much time or money on their gambling activities but in reality or to others they have spent more than what an average player would spend.
I don’t know how to classify it - but people have actually become addicted due to the fact that they were consistent with their gambling, they’re are users who are so consistent that they don’t go a day without opening their gambling account to play a bet and it got to the point when they can’t think straight if they haven’t played a game in their gambling site.
Those two are what I feel have also contributed to addiction in gamblers (especially newbies) and also what would most likely make me addicted if I’m ever going to.

To find an alternative full-time earning source and lack of alternative income earning opportunities are the two major reasons that can lead to gambling addiction. But the later one will occur if someone have time because of its job not taking so much time.
Another reason that I think is that some people think they are special, in away they can make money from gambling like no other people. They will learn about gambling very well, look for ways to make money from it but later find themselves addicted.
Another reason is idleness.

Not sure what one-line message to recap this problem, maybe curiosity? Here's the scenario I often hear/watch from problem gamblers' testimony: They think that they can "beat the house," just like what happens in stock trading. People want to "beat the market." Then they seek patterns, formulas, techniques, etc., that can give them an advantage in gambling. Whether it's sports betting, table games, or slots, all can be victims of this "Gambler's Fallacy." After so many years of wasting time and money, and digging their debt hole deeper, they eventually realize that they just cannot beat the house, and it's too late.

I was wondering what makes someone transition from a casual gambler to a gambling addict. Here are five reasons I've identified.
Another reason is: A good run, or a massive win.I have seen users who get a massive win in the first bets, and after that happens they start acting as degens, let say they deposit $100, and win $10,000. In that moment they are ready to lose $2,000 or bigger amounts, and end up walking away with less than $5k. They feel like they end with profit, but the reality is they lost $5,000 which could be a nice part of their profit.

Expectation vs reality strikes everyone when they start losing as they forget the house wins. The reality is that unless you play for excitement and adrenaline rush it is not entertainment. When trying to outsmart the house it becomes addiction and the rest is known. Whether it's sports betting, table games, or slots, all can be victims of this "Gambler's Fallacy." After so many years of wasting time and money, and digging their debt hole deeper, they eventually realize that they just cannot beat the house, and it's too late.
Agreed! Another reason is:
A good run, or a massive win.
A good run comes once in a while whereas a massive win is something every gambler dreams and one in a thousand will be able to achieve.

I agree with everything that you wrote down. One need to see gambling as fun and gamble in the lowest minimal, so that you will not become addicted unknown to you, because that's the worst of all, thinking that you are normal, whereas you have become a chronic addict.
I think greed is another factor that lead gamblers to addiction unknown to them. This is because they will never be satisfied with little wins, and it is from greed, that will lead to loss, and because you are greedy, you will prefer to start chasing your losses instead of letting it go, thinking that you will be able to recover it, and win big with hope.

What contributes to a casual gambler becoming an addicted gambler is, the joy of winning when a gambler predicts and win then the person believes that winning is a normal thing, believing that I'm going to win will Make the person always want to play away, which is impossible that one will stake 5 good times without losing. If you play gamble five times in a week and win throughout that week the possibility of winning next week must be 50/50, so always believing that winning will always take place will lead to the addiction.
So fa so good, gambling contributes to richness so the joy of winning and getting rich will always make a gambler to always want to stake always and what so ever that makes a gambler stay without gambling everyday, there's a symbol or synthom of addiction. Normally gambling is not by how many things you gamble but, how many lucky things did you predict and stake. Must at times so gamblers will not sleep at night just because there intension is to predict all true out the night and sometimes stake at night but sometimes predict in the night and stake in the morning.
For some gamblers they will be at work and will leave the work at working hours and will move over to a gambling site and begin to play gambling and while some are students they will let go off lectures for gambling and at the end of the semester will be having a poor results.
All this becomes a behavioural this other then at the end of the day leads to addiction, to my own definition addiction is a state of mind of an individual that disabled an individual to know what to do at the right time, addiction to contribute to the unconscious control of an individual to leave the rational thing for the irrational at the necessary time.

Impressions of what gambling is all bout and the drive to get rich quickly. Pattern most of the time is a new gambler hearing news that a gambler won xxxxxxx amount from betting. It would give him an idea of "I have to win as well". Or he could experience winning a decent amount and wanting to gain more from gambling. And lastly, struggle from huge loss which lead to frustrations and to a bigger drive of betting in order to get back with what this industry "owe" from him. However, it will still depend on the individual whether he would let himself be too attached of this activity 'coz there are people who does. The only thing we need is acceptance; that you'd most of the time lose, and it is part of the game no matter how you desire to win. It won't be an easy thing to achieve especially because this activity is not only losing or winning, but because it is your money which is on the line, who wouldn't want it?

Some people like copying others, if they have friends at are also gamblers and the friends start winning big, they will abandoned their ways and copy that of their friend's, safe strategy or irresponsible way of gambling, they don't care anymore, all they will want is the same result as their friends.
Another factor is having a taste of constant winning, like gambling few rounds and winning starts showing more than losing, the first thought is how blessed and smart they have become, they will forget that them winning is just luck, so when else they plan to gamble they will do it big.
Gradual gambling draws you in and get you confused, gambling activities should be the smallest activities that we do with our times, the less time you spend gambling the better for you, the moment you start giving more of your time to gambling the more likely you will be addicted to it.

Some of the reasons are quite reasonable transition from ordinary gamblers to addicted gamblers but most often I hear that they become addicted is because of the dream of a big win after losing they will chase the loss that will continue to play gambling so addicted.
Humans are more greedy once they win they will not stop playing gambling they will continue to try with their big dreams to win but in reality it is not, we realize how indicative of gamblers who are addicted they will increase their activities for the victory they expect.

This is the main reason that I believe would make a casual gambler turn an addict, the excuse of not having alternative source of income should be because he probably has no source of income initially when he was a casual player. So it is more reasonable to say that losing his money often may make such person to start gambling without control and thereby becoming an addict. Chasing profit is a challenge for gamblers when they lose control and start playing to recover back what they have lost.

Those who have heard about gambling become addicted because they are initially given a big win and then there is an excessive mindset where with large capital will get even bigger wins, that is their mindset towards addicted gambling.
By chasing losses that makes gamblers become addicted because they continue to play without thinking they will lose all of it but we know that many factors of gambling addiction are caused by several things and one of which you said in the list, the cycle of addiction will not be far from what is above because of the various reasons why they are addicted because they are not aware of it.
But many friends say why he continues to play because there is a big dream that one day he will definitely win big. So that's what they have in mind.

I was wondering what makes someone transition from a casual gambler to a gambling addict. Here are five reasons I've identified. I think this is the most logical and I have experienced it. Of course, initially gambling is just for fun, but when we realize that a lot of money has been spent gambling, we start chasing losses. That's when we unconsciously become addicts. However, not everyone who becomes an addict will continue to be an addict, sometimes gamblers will immediately realize this and begin to reduce the intensity of their gambling or even choose to stop. I think everyone's level of addiction is different and at least every gambler must have had the experience of chasing losses

*Trying to achieve out those big win that he/she have seen on other gamblers *Having thoughts that winning in gambling is easy peasy
This is just some additional i should say on which it is a contributive factor on which it do really give out more urge for you to play more. You might not still be directly considered to be an addict but on the time that you've been making out such actions which showing that you are already considered to be going into that path.
Its always been important that moderation should really be the key because once you do find yourself that having those lose control of such activity then you are really that putting yourself into potential problems.

Every addiction is like an escape valve, usually the person has some other problem and uses gambling to supposedly alleviate this problem. It's like a drug addiction or drinking addiction.
Everything in our life is about balance, be it food, exercise, work... We have to know how to balance it, if something gets out of control it's always a good idea to ask for help or talk to someone.
Most of us here are anonymous, so if anyone wanted to talk, I'm not a doctor or psychologist but I'm available to help too.

I was wondering what makes someone transition from a casual gambler to a gambling addict. Here are five reasons I've identified. - To find an alternative full-time earning source
- Chasing Losses
- Lack of Alternative Income earning opportunities
- Using Gambling as an Excuse for Personal/Profesional Problems
- lDream of Winning Big
- An excuse
If you have anything else then do write it down on this thread. This thread is only to help anyone who is into daily gambling realize the incident that led to compulsive gambling or everyday gambling. This is a self-moderated thread that means if anyone here wants to vent out his or her frustration then they are welcome. Let's hear it so that everyone knows. I basically think all the listed details actually works together, it's more like a stage by stage process and all of them contributes to the gambler being addicted but the most one I think it's more active is the chasing of losses because that particular action can be carried by both the rich and poor gamblers. The more a gambler gets this thought to his head the more closely he gets to becoming a full time addict.

I have seen many individuals that are addicted to gambling and this three reasons are always the main cause of their addiction problems. When a gambler starts chasing losses, he's going to get easily addicted to gambling as the chasing will never end. He'll keep chasing and losing more money as he's chasing the losses then before he realize that he isn't making any progress it would had being late already and he has become a gambling addict. Not having an alternative source of income is another major reason as they'll always rely on gambling to give them money but this isn't possible all the time as you can't win everytime that you want to gamble. You'll win some bets and also lose others therefore having an additional source of income can help reduce the time you're spending to gamble and chasing money. Not being disciplined would also contribute to being an addict from casual gambler.

This might fit on the list - Trying to win the jackpot in gambling to improve one's life.
Some individuals feel like they have exhausted all options and are dissatisfied with their current life situation. For them, gambling seems to be the only way out, as they hope to win a large sum of money to improve their financial status.

- Chasing Losses
The gambler should have a separate job for the gambling money,because the gamblers who had huge money can able to recover the loss after the huge loss in the past.So the alternative one was more important here,not all gamblers doing the gambling with the regular job was main cause for the gambling addiction. - Lack of Alternative Income earning opportunities
- Using Gambling as an Excuse for Personal/Profesional Problems
If they don’t know other source to earn the money,they will keep on come to the gambling for the earning money.Some gamblers will say the gambling was the cause for the loss in the their real business.The gambling loss should not affect your life at any point.So the gamblers won’t become the gambling addicted person. - lDream of Winning Big
- An excuse

Making winning from the gambling site is not the hardest part,the dedication and the skills was the most important one.No excuses was accepted after the loss in the gambling site,If you feel the game was in the loss part.The gamblers should take some rest and hear their favourite songs and get away from the gambling frustrations.The result will be the profit from your betting was sure one.
