I heard about that story and the news because my uncle had previously worked in the same casino. It's sad to hear people being unable to control themselves and even commit crimes just to try gambling. As for me, gambling is only for fun, and if we don't regulate our impulses, it could ruin our lives. Greed could result in losses, so when it comes to gambling, we have to know our limits.

I was once invited to a gambling tournament by my friend and went to use his luxury car, we went to the casino at that time. An unexpected thing happened when he lost and got out at the first stage, there were no significant problems until we finally returned home, I was just surprised when finally returning home using the taxi service, it turns out he sold his car to someone because he lost a lot in regular gambling when I continue the tournament. that was the first time I saw a friend with a very acute gambling addiction.
That will be commong for those gamblers who are already an addict , they will find a way to have money, and to create one, but since they are to frustrated they are easily to lose those money , probably in just 1 game, it is needed to be stop and they are needed to be guided in order for them to have a moderation of their losses and stop them being an addict.

Gambling doesn't care what kind of person are you, you will lose your money most of the time because it is needed for their bankroll, or you just suck, either of that.
If you say like that it's like the system of that site has been rigged. The reason because you lose is due to House edge. You are playing too long until the house edge catch you and that's why you will likely lose in long run. As long as there is house edge, you can't win in long run

One thing about the gambling addiction that you would not have any consciousness about how you got addicted to it. Many of the players used to come just for fun but the ultimate gambling becomes their addiction. Like all other addiction, it is too much harmful too. When a gambler is gambling with lots of money he is risking his economical status and even of his family. His mind is so diversed by the gambling that his mood becomes very much arrogant.
Anyone that shows the sign of arrogance just because they start gambling is specifically arrogant by personality. It may be funny to say, but gambling can also bring out the true character of some people. Some people may be greedy, once they start gambling they display they greedy lifestyle in the game. Same goes with an arrogant person.
Those arrogant gamblers are most likely prone to losses. They thought that they know all of the information and also the strategies. As a gambler, we should always be humble and not be a arrogant person. A gambler can become arrogant if they got what they desired where they thought that they understand everything. Being a arrogant in gambling can also lead in addiction so we should not become one of those arrogant gambler

I'm not sure if arrogance as such has anything to do with either losses or wins

What has, though, is how risky you are. Yeah, I understand that you imply arrogant as synonymous with risky. But, first, you can be risky and reckless as hell without being arrogant (read, as shy as a mouse outside gambling) and, second, you can be arrogant and uppity as fuck but still smart enough to know your real odds. And then, after all, it is the risky ones who win big time, not those who avoid taking risky steps and bets

Very well said, as always.

People always judge other people by their negative attitude, without knowing the whole package of a certain person, like if you are a drinker, people will assume that you are a bad person, which is not true, they only see your bad habits but don't see what you are really inside, just like what you have said Sir, being arrogant can't define your losses in gambling, there are "disciplined" gamblers who play gambling yet they still lost.

Gambling doesn't care what kind of person are you, you will lose your money most of the time because it is needed for their bankroll, or you just suck, either of that.

Indeed, many people fall into gambling addiction that they don't even feel, their actions always show that they are addicted to gambling but their instincts say they are not addicted and the cause probably always starts from being too confident before starting to gamble, regardless of the consequences and the story being disseminated, many still believe they will be in control. Perhaps people are still not aware of the frightening from gambling, it's not an ordinary game, it is a game of darkness, the more we play, the more we will stick to the dark
Yes, gambling unwittingly will make us addicted, even though what is felt is still in normal circumstances but will trigger to play again which makes him addicted.
because I feel it and try to control it to not play again, but it becomes nonsense and when there is an opportunity will trigger the desire to play again.
Gambling addiction is just like other addictions. There are situations that trigger your addiction and in case of gambling, it is mostly the money you have. If you have some extra money, your mind pushes you to play it. In order to avoid getting addicted, we shall plan out time for gambling. Plan your time that you will give to gambling in a week. Controlled involvement in this game will make it fun for the player.

because I feel it and try to control it to not play again, but it becomes nonsense and when there is an opportunity will trigger the desire to play again.

I guess that if you have good control for yourself, you will have a chance to avoid the addicting so you can gamble without worry if you are addicted to gambling. But most people in out there will become to the addicting without they realize, and sometimes they are only playing the games and spend the money, but then they get into deeper into the gambling games. After they realize that they are in the deep of gambling, they will see that the chance for them to get out of gambling will be difficult.

But if they know that they must stop the addicting, they will use many ways to let them free from the addicting, and they will try to ask for help from other people to solve their addicting.

This is one of the worst effect of gambling addiction that I've seen.

A close uncle of mine used to gamble frequently and soon enough got soo addicted to it that he started taking debt to support his gambling . He even started taking support from his peers without letting them know where he going to put in that money. Soon enough he lost his house , family and moved away without telling anybody around. The family is still looking for him. 

This is sad.

I hope that one day you'll find your uncle again, I think he's very frustrated of what happened to him and realized that there's nothing for him to show anymore to his family.

I was reading the news this morning and one of the headlines was about a terrible stealing incident involving an alleged gambling addict. The man is an employee of R&L Investments, one of the Philippines' oldest stock brokerage firms. He was able to orchestrate a way to suck at least ₱700-million worth of stocks from the company to support his gambling addiction. This is around 14 million USD, huge enough for the company to decide its closure after 5 decades of operation.[1]

This case made me remember another news that shocked the country and beyond more than a couple of years ago. This incident involved another gambling addict who tried to burn down the casino inside Resorts World Manila. The man entered the casino fully armed and attempted to steal chips. It went awry and much worse from there, and ended up burning himself alive. The gambling addiction of the perpetrator had reached its worst end after initially causing separation from his family, selling of properties including his home and car, incurring huge debts, and so on. The incident claimed dozens of lives.[2]



I want to ask my fellow gamblers here, what is the worst thing you have done for your gambling hobby or habit? Have you come to the point of getting addicted to it and how did you counter it?

Every thing remains good if we use it moderately but if we will start access use it can harm us and we can become addicted that’s why we should use gambling  but in limit and try not to be affected as a gambling addicted spend limited time in gambling and spend other for other activities. When you think you can control yourself only then jump in gambling.
It will be a must , we need to put everything in moderation , I experienced it myself,last year I gamble and I've lose to many money, I push myself to get back what I already been lost  ,but it only worsten the situation , gladly I did not end up being an addict, because I still have a control in every game and in every budget that I have.

That money you've lost can be recovered if you will just focus on your job or work. If you get addicted in gambling? There is no way that it would be easily recovered or even you experiencing any wins at all. Keep gambling in moderation and keep yourself from getting addicted in gambling.

Easy for you to say but in reality, you will have a hard time recovering you loss in gambling by focusing on something that you don't want, it will act like a diversion for a while but trust me, if you have a great loss in gambling, you will find yourself playing gambling again and trying to win back your losses, because you can't focus on your work if you are thinking about how you could win in gambling even for once, something like that.

Realizing that there's no easy way once you already lose your money and try to recover it back the possible outcome will be another loss.
Keep in mind that in gambling emotions are very important knowing to set your limits and keeps thinking that you can never empty the
house bankroll so better to play to enjoy rather than to play and think for big profits.

A person who became curious and hooked into gambling and repeatedly spend his money for gambling can't feel that he is addicted into it because he is having fun gambling. This is the reason why I don't want to gamble too much. I can't control myself when it comes to things like this and I don't want to spend many money into something that is very risky like gambling.

An addicted gambler is more likely spending approximately more than half of his monthly income for gambling. An addicted gambler's priority is gambling and not family or other things. We can't blame them but I hope that they can face the risks in what they are into right now.

but how can he focus on work when he always wanted is to gamble?lucky that he did not end up addiction and recovers from the mistakes.

mostly it is easy for us to say a word because we are not on the situation but if we will put our feet on their shoes?we will find the hard reality that gambling is really addicting and always had negative effect in everybody's life if we dont manage to control the call of betting.
