What really makes a gambler to become addicts to gamble?
Lose or winning?

For me, it's the combination. Because most of us don't just always lose or win.
The eager to win will make it as a factor also because you know you are profitable, that's why you still need to bet to increase your capital.
Next is the losing - where you want to make all back your losses, as long as you have money for capital, the eager you want to make it back is always there.

True, that is a misunderstanding that has quite a fatal impact and I am sure that quite a few gamblers end up addicted because they started their involvement in gambling by carrying assumptions and thoughts like that. And of course, when a gambler carries a mindset like that, they will certainly treat their gambling activities in various ways that tend to be excessive and I am sure that this approach will definitely create a lot of mental and psychological stress.

Thinking that gambling can make them rich will certainly make them gamble with the intention and purpose of making a profit where winning will always be a priority for them, and this is a mindset and approach that will ultimately lead them to the point of true addiction where there is no neither situation is good in itself, because as you have explained, when they lose they will try to recover their losses and when they win they will apply their greed, and in the long run this approach will actually create a bigger disaster for his life.

Gambling for wealth? A loser's game. A total loser's game. I've watched that 1000 times. People get addicted, thinking they can beat the system and get rich quick. It never happens that way. The house always wins. Always.

I like winning. Everyone likes winning. Being addicted to winning is different from winning. You must know the odds. Be respectful to the game. Its about fun, not money.

Be smart when gambling. Set limits. Bet just what you can afford to lose. If it becomes more than enjoyable, leave. Winners do that. They know when to hold and fold.

All about mindset. Winners think winningly. They're willing to lose hands. The long game is their goal. They recognise that knowing when to quit can help them win.

Surprisingly, they don't think that all the games provided are developed or made by the casino itself, which means that the one who has full control is the casino itself and which also regulates every portion of the winnings for the gamblers, meaning it is impossible for you to beat the other party. build or create the game yourself.

Yes of course everyone likes winning because after all money is something we always need in life, but of course addiction is a different thing, and when someone focuses on prioritizing winning then addiction is a sure thing and I think we all have know about what kind of negative impacts will arise when someone has entered the addiction phase.

If from the start a gambler uses common sense and a rational point of view in assessing and responding to what and how gambling really is then I am sure that they will not make money or winning their main priority.

Basically I believe that the fate of a gambler in the future depends on their mindset today, or I mean depends on how they evaluate gambling from the start.

What makes a gambler addicted? Lose/winning?

Winning and losing, in my understanding, is not one factor that leads someone into the trap of gambling addiction, there are many aspects that cause someone to become addicted, especially in gambling, where if someone has gotten satisfaction in the game their brain will have a strong stimulus to play again, they don't care about winning or losing, they can feel individual satisfaction in gambling.

As well as environmental patterns or friends, these problems can also make someone addicted to gambling, other factors such as stress, Loneliness can also be addictive where when they come to the gambling arena they will find the opposite and other things that make them addicted apart from losing.

Gambling to get rich is the same as making us losers, because the fact that the house will always win cannot be changed. It is a definite rule that the house will always win, players will only experience losing money, even though occasionally players can win, it is very rare. People who are wise in gambling will not put in more money than they can afford, they will have limits applied, but those who gamble to get rich tend to put in more money than they can afford even though they have lost a lot of money but they still gamble. because rich thoughts are still in him.
It's true what you said, we have to be smart when gambling. because that is something that must be paid attention to in order to prevent greater losses or addiction that will trap you. Apart from that, we should gamble as best we can, don't force yourself to continue betting just because winning is uncertain. Honestly, winning is our own behavior.

People, gambling as a get-rich-quick plan is simply fiction. That is a game for losers. The house always comes out ahead. always. Its arithmetic; it is not luck. From the time you enter a casino or place a wager online, the odds are stacked against you.

I have a good time. Not incorrect here. You have to be clever about it though. Not an investment, gambling is entertainment. Establish a boundary, keep to it, and know when to go. You're deceiving yourself if you believe you'll outperform the house. You are acting exactly in their hands.

Those that grasp this are the actual winners. They manage their money, not the other way around. Their gambling is more for the excitement of the game than for the prospect of wealth. That is the wise approach of playing. That is the Trump approach of playing. Its not about winning or losing. Its about knowledge of your limitations, discipline, and self-control. True power resides there.

Just like you have said, both really do have a way to affect the way a gambler is really going to get addicted to the habit or if it will rather make you be a better gambler or even quit totally but then you may not relay get to quit especially when addiction is about setting in as a gambler. Trying really hard to increase your capital to help increase your chances and probably get on with higher stakes can really be messy with the mind because that may increase your propensity to wanting to may be lose and get addicted chasing looses.

What really makes a gambler to become addicts to gamble?
Lose or winning?

For me, it's the combination.

If am to scale it, I’ll say winning.

Your more likely to gamble even more when you win. You play the game because you hope to win and be entertained. I get the part we’re some gamblers get to chase there lose but, should you be able to over come that, the winning becomes a more driving force to gamble since, you’ve evolved such a gambling habit that gives you a high winning tendency.

Little wonder why some people take gambling for a profession. These are the real gamblers. These are the persons you can call addicts to the game. It’s what they live to do and before you get to this stage in gambling, you must have made some wins and know your way around several gambling markets, seasons to virtual games and real games.

Trying really hard to increase your capital to help increase your chances and probably get on with higher stakes can really be messy with the mind because that may increase your propensity to wanting to may be lose and get addicted chasing looses.

The gambling addiction factor is caused by gambling without capital limits and excessive desire to win or they want to recover their losses. If we can avoid these three behaviors in gambling then they will not be addicted and they can still control themselves to avoid high losses. If you don't agree that gambling is entertainment then don't let your gambling addiction take over your self-control, the risks of gambling are very varied and can affect psychological disorders, mental health and stress. So avoid any actions that can influence someone to become addicted to gambling.

Many of you have seen an addicted gamblers and if am correct some of us have been addicted to gamble but fortunately for you, you were lucky to realize how bad addiction can be and you limit yourself from gamble or take a break from anything bets.
However, it's just a simple question about addicted gamblers, like the topic above.

I suppose both can make you addicted. You lose and lose and lose you think eventually you have to win so you keep on going. Then you win win win and keep playing like you’ll never lose. I feel like it’s easy for anyone to get addicted to this sort of thing jt all comes down to self control.

However, it's simple as ABC because winning and losing are things that makes a gambler to become addicted to gamble. If the gambler is winning he will likely get freed and think of winning more money and forgets that he might lose those money he won. And if he's losing, he will start thinking that he might win the next round which is not even guaranteed. So in this case, both winning and losing can also make a gambler becomes addictive to gamble. And lastly, it also depends on the kind of person the gambler is.

That's just it . Self-control play a vital role in gambling because greed can come in anytime either when you are winning or losing, especially when you are losing , because when one is is losing he or she easily loss self control which will lead to them making rash decision, and when one is winning , greed of wanting more always come locking at the door , but with better self-control he or she can literally overcome such urge.

Both situations on which i could say.

When you are winning- then you would really be having that kind of urge on playing more because the primary thing that comes up into your mind is on the time or moment that you are on such state or winning condition
then you would really be that definitely be having that consideration to play even more because that kind of adrenaline rush that would really be able to felt out on which you would really be telling into yourself that
you might be able to win up even more if you do further continue. This is the moment or time that your emotion and your mind will really be getting in line in terms of the things that they will really be wanting to do.
Plus we do know that human being is naturally greedy in terms of money on which on the moment that you've seen those opportunities or chances then you would really be diving in.

When you are losing- Then this is the time or moment you would really be thriving yourself on trying to cope up with those loses on which you would really be trying to get those loses back
or would be trying to break even.On the moment or time that you do find yourself on such chasing up situation then it will really be just that making the situation even more worst.
This is why you should really be mindful and careful with your actions.

Exactly. If you have self-control, then addiction can be overcome, but if you're easily lost, then every little thing can get you lost, and the person will easily get addicted. 
 
It's not always about how he plays, what type of game he plays, or if the person wins or loses. No matter what they do, once they start gaining pleasure and a high desire for it, the addiction will come, and their blindness to how they will consider it something they do for fun won't allow them to see it.

Having self-control when gambling is indeed something that must be taken into consideration, because they don't have self-control, I think it's because they respond wrongly to gambling, where their perception of gambling is that they assume that they can make money gambling with certainty, while winning is not certain. . If there is good self-control, it is impossible for there to be wrong thoughts in gambling, including perceptions of the purpose of the gambling carried out.

The impact of this lack of self-control is very complicated, because addiction will occur. We need to look at our own abilities, because even though the goal is to have fun, sometimes there are strong temptations that make us shake our self-control. This is where the importance of having good perception, persisting consistently with positive thoughts. We must be able to continue to maintain the self-control that we already have and must be able to continue to hone it to become even better.

[hyudien]

I would  say that both winning and Lossing have a unique way of influencing a gambler to become addicted, you have really made good points and I completely agree with you, I can remember winning a bet at my first time, it gave me more confidence to know that winning is possible thou i lost too on that very day one but i went home to come back the next with so much emotions of coming back to win back my lost money as a beginner not knowing that am hurting myself emotional because i was chasing losses and i lost even more, i went for a break for some time before attenting to gamble again. I usually gamble on football betting but now am better after understanding few gambling ethics which shouldn't be ignored.

What you need to remember is that gambling has a strong attraction, so when you lose or win, the temptation and attraction will be there and after that it depends on what the players are like, if they can't control themselves then they could be attracted to gambling again and do gambling. something else that shouldn't be done. The first win we get usually makes us more confident, but it must be noted that being too confident when gambling is not a good thing because it can lead us to losses because excessive self-confidence makes it possible to ignore losses that occur and make We are still confident that we can win by continuing gambling again.
There are many things that must be considered carefully to avoid undesirable things such as addiction and financial losses. Taking a break when you lose is a pretty good choice, because it has to be like that, the aim in my opinion is to calm the emotions that might be provoked if you continue to gamble non-stop because the losses that occur are not acceptable.

Both can be a trigger for someone becomes addicted to gambling and that person will not know if he become gambling addiction. The more you playing gambling, the more chances you can gets gambling addiction without you realizes. The thing you can do is always use limitation, have self control, not have a will to wins more or recover your lost money. You playing gambling because you want to spend your spare time in gambling so you don't have any intention to achieve anything in gambling.

Gamblers can becomes addicted to gambling easily but they have their chance to avoids the gambling addiction. Many people already become addicted to gambling but you can avoid that for your own good by using many things that will helps you to stay away from the gambling addiction.

[dezoel]

To become addicted to gambling there are a few factors that trigger addictions in any person because it requires a long period of negative trends and mentality to develop addiction viruses in a person, in gambling one of the primary and most popular ways to get addicted is by being a greedy gambler, by the time you no longer gamble for fun and now gambling because you want to make profits or recover from your previous loses you have higher tendency to become addicted.

As far as you can remain decipline and follow your set principles, you can easily avoid becoming addicted, so I say greed is the primary cause of addiction in gambling.

Yeah, greed is probably on the top of the list of things that make a person addicted to gambling because it's greed that makes you gamble more and more, it's the hope of winning something significant that makes you spend a lot of money on your gambling activities, and it's greed that makes a person want to have a win repeated even if it's not possible in gambling since the results cannot be as per our hopes and wishes but they are based on our luck.

Many people get into gambling without the intention of spending a lot of money on it, they think they will gamble for just a little bit and then stop, but what happens is they eventually become addicted to gambling because they win some money at the beginning and then they want to have the same results again, so they gamble more and more.

When that happens to a person, they can't control the urge after that, and it becomes difficult for them to keep themselves away from gambling. Even if they lose after that, the first win will have their minds covered.

What really makes a gambler to become addicts to gamble?
Lose or winning?

Losing or winning can actually be a reason for someone's addiction but there are so many factors that contribute to addiction. All of us here would have been an addict because we've experienced both winning and losing before. In spite of all other factors, it revolve around lack of self control.

Some people become addicted by chasing their lose in order to recover lost money while others become addicted for the win and think it will always be in their favor. To some, society or peer group influence them while others are addicted because of the availability and easier access to gambling.

Self control is a weapon to overcome all of these factors and maintain a good gambling habit. Exposing one's self to other things than sitting idle is the first step to start with.

Yeah that attracts emotions and if the gambler unable to handle that feelings then he might bring his focus in it and that's where addiction will start conquering his mindset, and same with your sentiment both side either win or lose you'll push yourself forward to please that feeling and desire inside you, addiction begins when you unable to control your emotions, you'll put everything at stake jsut to keep yourself in and there's nothing that can hold you aside from your own decision and the resources that you have those are factors that affects things when you already attached and become addicted.

[Altryist]

So avoid any actions that can influence someone to become addicted to gambling.

The development of addiction to gambling, it seems to me that this is a long process, but you are right that gambling can influence mental aspects, even bets on not very large amounts, which will often lead to losses, can influence a person’s mood and his environment. Therefore, gambling is not suitable for everyone, and before you get carried away with it, you need to understand how you can perceive it. This is a difficult moment with which not everyone can be frank, but in the end it will be obvious, the only question is how quickly the player can admit it to himself.

Looking objectively, it is a circle without an end that gamblers create, why is there only winning and losing while there are other shortcuts and turns that exist? Gamblers have set their own limits with two fixed options and the limitation is in the mind like that, once we lose, we will try to turn around to win and vice versa, it can be said that gamblers are almost immortal in this dimension. One day, the dimension was broken by a little glitch, people returned to reality but everything was too unfamiliar to the gambler and once again, the gambler returns to the dimension they tried to escape
