I think it's just the fact that in gambling, you can win instant money but you can also lose it instantly. Sometimes when we lose our money in gambling we tend to use additional money and gamble it to bring our losses back and the money will be lost again until we are not aware that we are already addicted on gambling just because we already spent a lot of savings going nowhere just for fun.

People gets addicted to gambling because of the instant way to have money at first gambling will give you the taste of how it feels to win and then later on losses will follow and as a human being we of course want to win back the money we lost so we gamble more until such time gambling becomes a routine.

The feeling when you can have easy money is just good. The first time you gamble, you won and this would make make the gambler feel to have an easy money and would make him fell that there is an easy way to have money without the need to work hard. At first, it is just a hobby but eventually when he is so into it already and it is already part of his system then he cannot stop it anymore. Even if he will have countless losses, he will still gamble whatever is the source of his money and don't care whether he can afford to lose it or not because he is thinking that he can get it back anyway if he won.

Yeah the OP is not the "blood gambler" . Some guys are keep chasing the loss for the win back but mostly they can't do it. All these guys are risky guys and they're feeling happy when they're gambling . I'm very sure about this cause i was the one that addicted to gambling.

when you are chasing your previous loses, you will get lucky and get it back but that will always not be the case because you get to be more prone to losing more due to the house edge advantage. my advice is, just play for fun and entertainment with the money that you can afford to lose.
Not all house always wins, there are also houses that loses and they are getting bankrupt, maybe because they don't have a good handler on that house, all of us thinks that houses always wins but not all the time. Sometimes we got lucky and winning big stakes but not all the time, when playing gambling, we don't know whether it’s our lucky day or not. Gambling addiction starts with our greed and if we don’t stop until we are not winning, there is a possibility that we will lose all our money/bitcoin.

Why is someone get addicted to gambling once he gamble ?

Gamble is quite like a trap . If someone loss we want to recover from it and if he wins he want to win more. Thus he got stuck is the trap of losing and winning. Greediness of earning money fast is the main cause but the reality is, most of the player end up loosing.


That is how gambling works, we try, we lose, then we get addicted to it, just like what you have said, we are addicted on gambling because we wanted to take all back what we have lost because it was not on our plan, we just wanted to win and not to lose our money. There is a saying that "Curiosity kills the cat" and we are the cats who's been victimized by the gambling site.

In all fairness with the gambling sites, they are not victimizing us because it is already stipulated that they have the house edge advantage. Having the house edge advantage means, they have more chances of winning than the players or the gamblers unless otherwise games like poker and sports betting.

Of course most of all people are prone to addicted to gambling, especially if the person is used to knowing the gambling thing from the small it would be very easy to get addicted to gambling. Well i think it depends on the basis of each person, some are susceptible to addicted and some are not easily affected to addicted in gambling, it depends on each person's personality in life i guess.

Gambling addiction will only ruin your life. I believe that greediness will lead you to loss all your money and when you have nothing left in your wallet, you will start find ways to cover it and continue playing by selling your stuffs or borrowing money from other which are very worst, it is not a healthy mindset anymore.

Agree! I've known a lot of people who ruined their life because of gambling addiction and its really alarming, this case should me taken seriously with the family. When a family member starts to gamble it should be prevented right away before getting addicted to it.
There is no doubt in this matter that whoever gambles he usually becomes addicted to it. The problem is even bigger in those cases when the head of the family or the bread earner has got addicted to it.

There are a lot of ways to get out of this problem the best of them is to get yourself involved in some sort of other activities. This would really be a good diversion for your mind and stop being greedy for money at once.

And lack of self-control will cause us to get trapped. Want to take back our losses when losing and wanting to win even more when winning is a sign of inadequate self-control. It's the same you do not know when to stop and if you can control yourself well you will know when to stop.

That would be a trap for gamblers who are not responsible with what they are doing, if a certain gambler is responsible he knows his limit and he understand that he lose most of the time since he does not have an edge. It is design to win against us and we should know that in the first place so when we gamble we will not be surprise we lose more than we win.

It is somewhat a trap for people who cannot control themselves. I guess we all have that trait that once we are attached or attracted to something, we would feel different. Greediness is something that you should stay away from, all the seven deadly sins. It's definitely something that we should learn to see in ourselves.

Gambling is a diverse activity, so different types of gambling addiction exist as well. It is not always obvious when someone is addicted to gambling. Contrary to popular belief, the act of gambling is not restricted to slot machines, cards and casinos. Purchasing a lottery ticket, entering a raffle or making a bet with a friend are also forms of gambling.
Gambling addiction can occur when a person feels that they are in financial ruin and can only solve their problems by gambling what little they have in an attempt to get a large sum of money. Unfortunately, this almost always leads to a cycle in which the gambler feels they must win back their losses, and the cycle goes on until the person is forced to seek rehabilitation to break their habit.
Gambling is give addiction to the people who believes in luck, because of auspicious many people always trust on their hunch due to they expected that thru help of this word "LUCKY" there's a possibility that in one click of finger they will become instant millionaire. However, sometimes gambling is not bad to us especially when they used it for fun. In additional just always know the limitation of our funds to lessen the amount lose in our savings.
There are people who gamble with the belief in numbers because in gambling math is a great way to increase the chances in winning. Knowing how much you are going to bet in order to get back what you lost. That's a great way to recover money if you know how much. Don't limit yourself with just luck in my opinion.

There are really good strategies out there that mitigate your risks of getting your bankroll turn into zero in an instant. Some of the examples are creating multiple betting sessions by dividing your bankroll,pre-planned bets in terms of betting in incremental value as it loses to cover said loses in the next bet, and so on..

Your strategy is safe though but even with those strategies you risk losing your major bets and wining the minor ones to recover your bankroll and you can have that run for a long time without turning in profit. Eventually you might give up and try something new or quit completely.

That is the reason why I even quit to 100% focusing on gambling on a regular basis. I turned to trading, with few sports betting on the side while working back with clients for my services. Before, I make gambling my full-time source of income until I get burned out and need to have a break. Now I am just gambling for fun and not on a regular basis already.

Only those people who come to gambling just to win become addicted. This is my theory. If you gamble just for fun - you will never become addicted.
I play really often and do it only with Bitcoins from the signature campaign, so I am not regret if I loose, who knows how many coins I lost already, by proximately counting it's something like 3 BTC. Now it's a big money, I know! But I don't feel sorry, I didn't invested in gambling money from my salary or family budget, so I feel clear myself.

That is really a great way to gamble, just for fun and only use money out from your main source of income and just have fun and be entertain gambling. However, if you aim to earn profit from gambling and invested bigger amount that would really hurt your pocket, then this might lead to gambling addiction once you start chasing your previous loses.
