On this board, we are always referring addiction as a terrible thing but does it mean that those addicted gamblers doesn't win money, are they only bounded to losses upon losses?

Basically gambling, addiction, winning and losing, my understanding is that this is a different issue, where we understand that someone is addicted to gambling doesn't mean they can win and lose, many of those who are addicted can win and many of those who are not addicted can lose.

I mean, gambling cannot be separated from fate and luck, I have seen those who gamble for fun and they win big jackpots, there are also those whose daily lives are spent gambling but never win the jackpot.

Thus, what we do in gambling depends on a person's good and bad luck. If it is bad luck, of course we will suffer losses, There are also those who are unlucky when they gamble and lose every day, meaning that such people gamble is not good for them and there are also those who gamble every day and always win, for this reason gambling does not depend on addiction for someone to lose and win.

I feel so bother and that is why I decided to ask this question.

We keep talking about gambling addiction and how bad it is to become addicted, does it mean that addicted gamblers lose money all the time? Do you means those guys doesn't win anything at all? Can they not be lucky to win jackpots?

On this board, we are always referring addiction as a terrible thing but does it mean that those addicted gamblers doesn't win money, are they only bounded to losses upon losses?

I don't think addicted gamblers only lose, it is possible sometimes they win reasonable amount of money but one thing I know for sure is that being addicted is dangerous. Addicted gamblers take much risk in gambling, they have the mind of gambling with all their money, they have the mind of gambling with peoples money , they have the mind of taking loan to gamble, they can just do anything for gambling and taking risk like this is dangerous. Just imaging someone selling his car to play gamble and the game ends up as lose, how do you think the person will feel? In a situation like this the person can be hurt after losing a big amount of money, this is why addiction is bad.

The consequences of addiction is very bad and dangerous, in addiction it is possible to win big but addiction can make one to take bad financial decision that can cause one to be broke and the fear of the lose can make one to take dangerous decisions that can lead one of taking his or her life.
Since the other side of addiction is dangerous, it makes no sense to consider the wins that addiction brings. The lose in addiction will bring more pains.

you know that the possibility of people losing at gambling is much higher than winning, especially to get the jackpot, it seems much more difficult. gambling every day will not increase your chances of winning and getting the jackpot, it is just a way for you to spend your money, because again someone has a very big chance of losing at gambling. even when the addict hits the jackpot on their gambling, the most they do is use the money for sprees or return to gambling again, and this is what causes them to suffer because of their addiction to gambling.

I believe that even successful gamers are a little addicted to games. Only this dependence is of a different type. This addiction forces successful players to spend many hours a day at the computer, analyze matches for a long time, study the potential of players, and collect statistics. This is all very hard and boring work that needs to be done in order to win in the long term. But the problem is that no one wants to do this. Nobody even wants to analyze the success of their strategy. This is precisely the weak point in the player’s preparation. Our weaknesses tend to add up. Only a good gaming addiction can counteract this.

I am trying to answer some of your questions from my point of view. You want to know that addicted gamblers always lose bets and always lose money. In answer to this question, I would like to say that if an addicted gambler gets too greedy in gambling then he may face losses in gambling but there are many gamblers who are addicted but not too greedy in gambling rather. He controls himself and gambles. These gamblers definitely have a high chance of profit in gambling and understand the dynamics of gambling.

Whether an addicted gambler wins a gambling bet or hits the jackpot depends entirely on luck. I cannot guarantee or guarantee when a gambler will win a big gambling jackpot. However, whether a gambler or a non-addict, winning or losing a gambling bet depends largely on luck. Although I myself am such a non-professional and amateur gambler, most of the time I have lost gambling bets and I consider it a cruel irony of my luck.

I've witnessed gambling addiction's devastation. Real problem that damages families and lives. Its not just about financial devastation, though thats important. The actual threat is its psychological hold on victims. The relentless pursuit of the next big victory and the conviction that luck is just around the corner can be hard to overcome. Effects extend beyond the individual. Careers, relationships, and trust collapse. A ripple impact can cause destruction.

Folks, this is it. Gambling addicts cant be ignored. We must help them rehabilitate with compassion and empathy. We must foster a culture where asking for help is a strength. Thats why I promote responsible gambling. Education, awareness, and a safe setting allow players to enjoy the game without risking their lives. It protects the weak and empowers educated decision-making.

That is very true! Not only financial aspect but emotional well-being of the gambler as well as his immediate family is directly affected by this addiction. The family should find a way how to approach the gambler in a way he won't be defensive with his habit. Most addicted gamblers don't want anyone to tell them to stop with what they are doing. If you are a family member, better find the reason why your addicted member is having such kind of life. Once you understood him, you will likely know how to find a way how to connect with him. Knowing the root cause will give you better idea on how to approach him and find solutions for his addiction.

Yes, when someone has entered into a gambling addiction, it is likely that their relationship with their family will definitely experience problems, especially in terms of the economy, which as we know addicted gamblers tend to always over-allocate budgets and obviously this can make it difficult for them to meet the needs of survival. And yes it's true as you say that usually gamblers who are addicted they don't want anyone to interfere with their gambling activities especially if there are other people including their families who tell them to stop gambling which usually gambling addicts will assume that you are one of the people who like to interfere with other people's affairs.

This is also the reason why a person who has been addicted to gambling is very difficult to give advice or input, on the other hand, utilizing an approach to be able to easily connect with them may be a good way but I think we have to do it slowly, don't let them know that your goal is to approach them to make them stop gambling, it might work to find out the reasons why they are addicted so that we can find a solution but it is not certain that this method will work.

Unfortunately, they’re blind with that realization, until they end up reaching that point where they have no food to eat and shelter to live. When they starve to death and become homeless, that’s when they realized that they were victims of gambling addiction.

If only regret came at the beginning of the game then no one would be addicted to gambling, that's why regret always comes at the end so that people regret and enjoy their failures, that's why many people around us definitely advise us the best and don't ignore them. because they don't want us to go too far in gambling, be gamblers who accept other people's advice, especially people who have experience in gambling, of course they have experienced the bitterness of life as a gambling addict.

Sometimes there are many people who are arrogant and don't care about the advice of people around them who think it's great that they believe they can get rich because of gambling, even though in the end it's not much different from other gambling addicts whose lives become homeless because they go bankrupt because of gambling. Gambling must be controlled properly. sometimes people like to think that it is a trivial thing, gambling addiction is a disease that is difficult to cure so don't take it lightly, everyone should avoid it when gambling because being an intelligent gambler is better than being a stupid gambler.

Not all the time, luck does not care whether a gambler is addicted or not, luck may come to anyone anytime without prior signs.
Addicted gamblers may win some time, but since they are addicted who cant control their habit then they will lose what they won quicker than those who are not addicted.
In the end, addicted gamblers will have no money left although they had some luck on their gambling journey due to the fact that they will always spend what they have.
That's the only difference IMO, but again addicted gamblers has their own luck as well and who knows that a big luck may make them run away from addiction

Sometimes it happens that even those people who suffer from gambling addiction win huge sums. But here's the catch: they lose everything anyway, because they believe that luck can smile at them twice in a row. But if you look at it from a mathematical point of view, the chance of this is extremely small.
If someone still manages to win a large amount of gambling, it is best to withdraw the winnings immediately and not return for new gambling sensations.
After all, the casino always wins in gambling, not the players Sad

Everything is logical in principle, but there is one thing. The fact is that if someone has won a large amount of money in a casino or betting, then his brain will fix it, and this gambler will always remember that he was able to earn a large amount of money very easily.
This will devalue all his work in the future. Imagine how hard it will be for him to work later for a little money in an honest job. Not everyone can accept this.

First, you need to understand that not all people can become addicted to games. I am sure that it all starts with psychology, and the problem stretches back to childhood. A person who once played and won will certainly want to do it again. But each person perceives winning in his way. Some people simply look at winning as luck, and that’s all, but others experience the pleasure of leadership and the release of dopamine, and this is what makes a person play more and more, experiencing a sense of risk.

However, it can be repeated that addiction cannot develop in all people in the same way. For obvious reasons, some people simply do not have the necessary amount to play and are naturally not subject to the passion of gambling, while others have a reasonable head and a healthy nervous system and understand that games can only be useful as entertainment.

Every form of addition is bad; the addicted person doesn't always know they are addicted; most times, is such alone not enough to consider gambling a bad thing?

Someone can't be unlucky for the rest of their life. Definitely, sometimes they will win from gambling, and most of the other times they will lose to the game, which is normal for every gambler.

But the only thing here is that if you become a gambling addict and don't seek help very quickly, no matter how much money you win from gambling, it will never be put to good use. The gambler will always end up losing it all back to the casino, which is what most of them do, and when they lose it all back to gambling, what is the gain of hitting the jackpot?

Mostly, those who fall into gambling addiction didn’t realize that they have some gambling problems. If you ask them, they’ll only respond as if they are gambling like any responsible gamblers. But in reality, even if they make big wins and small losses, the fact that they are gambling addicts, they won’t be satisfied with their winnings and only want to gamble more hoping to win bigger amount. But knowing gambling, it won’t let you win every time you bet, but most likely you’ll end up losing at times.

Unfortunately, they’re blind with that realization, until they end up reaching that point where they have no food to eat and shelter to live. When they starve to death and become homeless, that’s when they realized that they were victims of gambling addiction.

Yes, those who are addicted to gambling almost always lose the money they have every day, because for them there is nothing else but gambling. They prioritize gambling in their lives. However, that doesn't mean they always lose when gambling, in several gambling sessions they have also had good luck in gambling, be it small or big wins. It's just that when they get it, they respend their winnings on the next gambling session and increase the bet amount in the hope of getting a bigger win than before, but instead of getting another win, this behavior will only lose what they have earned. so that what he gets from gambling is only losses and losses.

And even worse, when someone is trapped in a cycle of irresponsible gambling and it is difficult to be reminded or awakened from this bad behavior. So what he got was not just a financial loss, but more than that. Business, work and even relationships can be destroyed just because of this bad behavior, they will lose trust, care and affection from other people and those closest to them.

One thing you should know about gambling addiction is that people aren't satisfied with their wins.

l have come across some gamblers who win a very huge amount of money. Instead of going home to enjoy their win, they randomly stay back, play more games, and perhaps they lose all they have.
Addiction is wanting more, trying to multiply, and this is one thing that makes their wins never count more because they are often found broke.

This is the habit of a gambler's addiction.But one who only gambles to win some money will pick that win and run out of that place.

Gambling addiction makes a gambler become unnecessarily unsatisfied with any win he gets no matter how big it appears to be and that's why gamblers are always told to gamble responsibly or better still avoid gambling. When gambler is addicted, he's always going to lose because whenever he's winning, he'll continue to gamble till when he begins to lose everything he's initially won and whenever he's losing, he'll continue to gamble in his quest to get back his losses. Gambling addicts lose money all the time and the little time they don't lose money, they end up using the money for irrelevant things.
I know a gambling addict that doesn't gamble all the time so his level of losing money is limited but whenever he decides to enter any gambling shop to gamble, he ends up losing almost everything he had saved in those days he didn't gamble. I don't think there's ever a good day in the office for any gambling addict and that's why we all should fight gambling addiction

Okay lemme brief you a bit if you don't really get things straight up, in gambling anyone can win be it addicted gambler or not whenever you have your prediction correctly then you win.
Where people talks against gambling addicts is when they don't control over themselves towards gambling this includes; selling off personal property, borrowing to satisfy their gambling addicts, spending off money meant for tuition fee or a business money for gambling all this things make people talks against it but one thing for sure if they bet and wins the ability for them to return those money where they get it is another problems because some gambling addicts doesn't care whatever amount they wins but what they care so much is to think about how they could always go for the higher winning that is why most people who are gambling addicts today doesn't give a concrete account of their money won from gambling. Since they are always on a target to winning a mind-blowing amount from the casino which mostly results to chasing loss after they might lost seriously from their previous bets.

Addicted gamblers have nothing to do with their life but to keep on gambling until empty. Winning and losing are natural in gambling but because of their gambling habits and addiction, even if they win, they lose them all as they continue to gamble. Nothing important for them other than gambling and every time they have money in their hands, they walk away and please themselves to the casino. That is how bad the addiction would be. Mentally stressful that ruins their life and finances.

That's not the ideology behind the fact that everyone is told to not get into addiction.. firstly, it's not even right for you to get addicted to anything in life - it immediately makes you prone to whatever effects that could cause you at the end.. when you get addicted, it becomes almost impossible to avoid/retract a certain urge, making it more difficult to find good fortune since the process is repeated over and over again.... When that happens, you might wanna have that delusion that you should atleast, recover some loses - that's exactly how you keep losing!

Addiction is clearly not a thing, that doesn't mean that addicted gamblers don't win major atimes. As long as you keep wagering in a certain frequency, you'll definitely experience winnings and losses at the same time. One of those would determine how much time you have left to keep wagering.
