Topic: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? - page 2. (Read 2054 times)

The decline in awareness and rational thinking is because they are too serious in responding to gambling and are also too obsessed with gambling activities which are followed by placing excessive hopes and beliefs so that even though they always lose, they still believe that one day they will be able to get a big win that can replace all the previous losses, even though it is a big mistake but that is what is in the mindset of an addicted gambler.

Overall, I can conclude that someone who is eventually addicted is certain that from the beginning they saw gambling as a place to make money, and this belief is caused because from the beginning they did not use a rational mindset in responding to gambling and most likely they only saw from one side, namely the chances of winning but did not see the negative side, such as in terms of risk, and this is what ultimately led to their misunderstanding in responding to how gambling actually is and also which ultimately brought a far from wise approach when making decisions.

That is very correct and true my dear mate, gambling is actually gambling irrespective of the sports, or the nature of gambling because they all chase after money and the quest and the constant chase for money makes them addicts. Someone does not become an addict as a result of the nature of game or the sports that he gambles with but i thinks that someone becomes an addict as a result of his or her primary intentions and the reasons behind their gambling, because if the person has his primary intention of gambling as to have fun or being entertained, in that regard i think that it will be very difficult to become an addict but if their primary intention is to make money then the chances of them becoming addicts is very high because the more often they try every time to make money the more addicted they are becoming. however, for me  it's not the type of gambling that one engages himself makes him an addict, but the sole intention of gambling makes him an addict.

Well yes, you are right, I also think it is the slots, however I have also thought that if poker is established here in PVP mode there will be many cases of addiction all Over the world , because poker is a very popular game and it can Make a difference in all corners of the world, in fact here in the forum there are people who seem to play too much and that is something that I admire and they are constantly playing, that is why when we see that there are new casino platforms at least I check them to see if they have a poker game in PVP mode, because it is something that will always Attract Attention.

Exactly a good one at that,most gamblers are not aware that their continuous habits of spending money,chasing after loss and craving for bigger wins is what results to them becoming addicted gamblers and like you said Gambling is gambling be it of any types but it's the indulgence of it that results in one being addicts it doesn't literally mean land base or any of that as far as you spend an amount unwisely and lose to it and you keep doubling it for wins then your categorized as that.

Yes but there's got to be one game that's got more addicted gamblers than the rest right? For me it's most likely that it's slots that's got a lot of addicted gamblers because of how easy to play it and how convenient it is, I mean that's just my observation because I've seen a lot of people playing slots no matter where they are and what time they're playing them so I assume that the more convenient and easy to play the game is, you're most likely to be a part of the statistics, I mean not everyone can play poker on the go right? Or blackjack and baccarat? Those games need some form of concentration after all.

Well, if you are right, during the football tournament season the bets are usually very high and it is also a very good season for casinos and sports betting, however now many good things are coming, the Copa América is approaching and the Eurocup, apart from the Conmebol qualifiers, this can increase the stakes, although I have always bet on football, it is something that I am passionate about, of course, but I don't think I will become addicted, when it is a sport that we like, well to Me especially, because I am fascinated by football, I tend to be very careful in that sense, and I think that people who place bets should be that careful too.

True. Expecting much, and only concerned about the winnings forgetting about losses (how to reduce it), that might be incurred in such game. As I do lay emphasis that we consider the risk involved and how we can react to it meaning our risk tolerance level before considering potential win which isn't guarantee either in gambling or betting.
What another gambler see as addictive might not  be same for another like your favorite game isn't same with mine, so we can't ratio it. Betting in Football is what i think majority is addicted to especially during seasons.

People gets addicted to gambling from many gambling games. They becomes addicted to gambling without they realizes and they just knows that they are playing gambling without stops and that's means they will gets addicted to gambling without takes too long. Getting addicted to gambling really gives many troubles and if those people who gets addicted, they will not realizes until all they have is gone, including their family. People who comes to gambling, whether it's casino gambling, in-house gambling, and one-on-one gambling with physical players available on the table can be the next targets that will becomes addicted to gambling. The ways for them to avoids that's use limitation, learn self control, moderation in playing gambling and that must be practice many times.

At this point I think that any game can get people addicted, I could talk about craps, slot machines, roulette, because what makes a person addicted the most is the fact that they have to bet a lot of money and they just want to win. . , then sometimes the person only focuses on what they should earn and the money becomes something else, and that is not good, it is dangerous because it is an indication that they can fall into an addiction and that is no longer negotiable, well What I say is that the main thing about this is to take care of yourself and avoid mistakes that hurt us in the future.

Sometimes I’m meeting that casino gambling easily you to eat gambling addict. It can really give you some issues and problem because it is more easier for you and it is something that is done by Several person it’s coming to gambling addition.com brings you down in different times on different occasions so I see that customer Dao is gambling com bring you really down it is just a different kind of gambling that is more addictive

I'm not sure if this is the case, but I think all types of gambling have elements that can make a gambler addicted but maybe the level of addiction is different - different, or I mean that each game has a different level to make the gambler interested in this type of game, and from my experience I think that from the many types of gambling games I think that slot games are more able to make gamblers interested because as we know that slots have advantages that look attractive symbols along with the sound of music that makes the atmosphere more exciting and added that this type of slot game has maximum winning opportunities ranging from small to large multipliers.

But overall, it is true that basically it comes back to how the attitude and character of a gambler, if for example they have a high obsession with gambling, especially with winning, then maybe their interest can be higher, and also for the problem of the type of game each gambler has their own preferences, or simply each gambler has their own favorite game.

and not counting that people have different attitude and characters because some
people do love long running games like card game and because for them this is more fun and exciting.
and also you are correct that every gambling are addicting only depend on which game will lure that players into addiction.

Between traditional casinos, and online casinos, traditional casinos is still the winner, but online casinos is slowly reaching up.

I mean there have been cases of gamblers who got addicted because they are gambling online. Add also the fact that it's way more accessible compare to a traditional casino. If you want to gamble, just get your smartphone, deposit some money on the website and *BOOM, you can gamble already. Compare it to a traditional casino where you need to drive minutes to go to a nearby casino. It might be good if you have friends that are gamblers, but for some, comfortability would be better for them hence, they prefer gambling online.

Overall, all types of gambling are addictive. To cut the story short, all types of gambling are addictive, and it's up to the person already if they will let themselves get addicted into it or they will control their selves and stop gambling if needed.

The difference between these casinos is obvious. In my country, there is no casino where I can go and have a quiet time with friends; that is, I can only do everything by visiting some online casino sites. But I don’t think there is any difference in which casino is online or offline; a person will quickly become addicted to the game. This all lives in a person—in his nature, in his upbringing, and his worldview.

Some people play for fun, and that is the true purpose of a casino. And someone decides to make money. This sounds very daring, but yes, many people think that you can make money in a casino. Weak people with a weak nervous system turn into addicted gamblers, experiencing a rush of endorphins and dopamine, the regular sensation of which requires constant play, regardless of the results.

And it makes no difference where they will play.

Yea, gambling is naturally addictive because it involves staking money and winning a huge amount within a short period of time, but based on the discussion I was having with my friend, which actually led me to create a similar topic like this here, I feel that online gambling is much more addictive than land-based gambling because gamblers have easy access to their phones and laptops, which makes it easy for them to gamble any time and anywhere they want, but some gamblers who prefer land-based gambling will not get easily addicted because they will definitely not have the strength and zeal to visit the casino at all times, which will therefore reduce their gambling addiction possibility, unless those gamblers that have a casino center close to their home,. 

Agree. All gambling games can be addictive. However, the popular gambling games will have more addicts. It is because more people playing on the games. Slots and sport betting are 2 most popular gambling games. So, it is not very surprising if we can find many addicts in those gambling games. They are easily to play by every individual because it doesn't require specific skills. That's why many people are involved in Slots and sport betting.

There is no gambling game that is very easy to win. All of them have 50-50 to win or lose. But since people think it is fun and challenging, people are more motivated to play more on the gambling games. Unfortunately, many people have no good self-control, so they play gambling excessively. This is actually the cause of the addiction.

I'm sure you're right, and I admit that sports betting is a pretty popular bet or known by most people in the world, but if we talk about the impact of addiction in my opinion someone who is addicted to sports betting does not really experience a significant impact especially on their finances because sports betting is a game that is only done when there is an ongoing match and it is also a fact that there are no matches that always run every day, or that means usually a gambler must first wait for the time to bet because sports are a game that has a schedule and cannot be done every time according to what we want.

While there are several other types of gambling that can be done at any time according to the gambler's own wishes while they have money, such as maybe slot games or some other live games, and obviously when a gambler has the freedom in terms of time to always access gambling then obviously it can lead to various unconscious overactions that can make the potential for addiction even greater, and also obviously in terms of impact much higher than sports betting (outside of the amount of budget they bet).

Contrarily, I don't think offline casino copied games from online casino. The machines you see in offline casinos had always been in video form before the integration of online casinos in the gambling world. However, don't know particularly if they're some new online games which was never in the offline casinos. Slots have multiple providers and hence would have varieties of gaming patterns, but I still consider them slots regardless of the graphics or how they look. Talking about addiction, slot players face a more tempting opportunity of getting addicted. Due to the nature of slot games.

Its fast results, easy to learn, and fast wagering method also helps in sticking players back on the machine for a long time. Thereby, exposing the player to compulsive gambling and then addiction. The other games like poker are mostly addicting in online casinos than the offline settings due to the social advantage as you mentioned. I don't think other gamblers would comfortably watch a fellow player in same table go compulsive without giving out a helping hand. Maybe after the game is over. On the other hand, online players wouldn't get such help due to the solo mode of online gambling. All player to himself, that's risky on the long run and mostly get the players addicted.

There are so many gambling games that many people engage themselves with in other to win reasonable amount of money at the end of the while some other people only gamble because of the fun of gambling but in all of these types of gambling, I thought sports betting is the most addictive of them all and have more gambling addicts than any other type of gambling. Sports is one of the most popular games around the world and because of the popularity, many people do engage in sports betting not because they're used to gambling but because they want to exercise their knowledge of sports. Some of these people are always without the basic knowledge of gambling but will still gamble because of their passion for sports and because they lack the basic knowledge of gambling, they end up becoming gambling addicts

It really depends on the type of player. Some people are most prone to getting addicted on games like poker because of the social aspect. Others like the patterns on slots and chase the max win they have seen which is also very addicting.

Some other people think they will get lucky on docr or roulette and spend a lot of money there. I think the most addicting is video slots but nowdays you can find them in both casino that is land based and also online. Frankly the land based casinos also copy many of the games that are successful online and earn large revenues. So I'd say video slots online and also physically are the most addictive.
