Gambling is sickness if you re addicted gambler , losing your hard earned money and still coming back despite this. But if you gamble with small amount just for fun i don't think its so bad.

With gambling at the beginning everyone decides of placing small amount, but if winning take place then automatically mind becomes greedy and makes the gambler to go for big amount. This at times described as sickness as well addiction when the person doesn't have a mind to concentrate upon other activities similar to a day job.

Which is why people should be educated about the math’s in gambling, the possibility of earning big is there but more likely than not thanks to the house edge we must expect to lose money on the long run.

Yeah the house edge is really earning a lot of it and for me not the gambling itself is considered as sickness. But the gambling addiction is the one making a gambler being sicked.

And it is the sickness that is very hard to treat because there is no treatment for that kind of sickness.

I think that is why gambling addiction can be so difficult to treat, for example if someone is an alcoholic you will see that person drunk every day, but how do you know if a person just lose his house because of gambling, if you this person in the street , that person will not look any different than anyone else.

I feel it's more of a personality disorder, completely mental. Kind of the opposite of a panic attack. You've created feelings of euphoria so strong from winning. It's like a high from a drug. Once it's stops, you still want more it.

Gambling can not be considered as a sickness. From this same reason why alohol or cigarettes can not be considered as a sickness. It is product/service. High risk of addiction is completly different thing.

People should be warned and protected against gambling as well as from the effects of excessive drinking and smoking.

Gambling is risky game of money from which most people lose and just a few wins. Gambling too is addictive and fun especially when you're winning and that's why most people can't get away from gambling once they get in it.
In gambling you only win from the start then you lose whenever you win a certain amount.

I don't agree with that. Sportsbook gambling can be productive and you can have a regular income with it if you know yourself, rules, conditions, you have discipline and a smart game plan. I made 50k a week, lost 50k a week, I have ups and downs. From all these experiences I learned a lot and grow. I mastered my game plan and strategy. Now all I do is win win win. Wink

Yeah, right. Gambling should be considered as a sickness which is not that easy to cure because once that you are into it, it is not easy for you to get out. Winning on gambling makes the door that you've enter more narrow and narrower every time that you do gambling and the will that you're going to win and take all back what you've lost to it is the reason for that door to be closed for you not to get out of it, and that is called "addiction". You can get out by the help of someone and also the help from yourself. You need to be serious about getting out of it because it may lead to darkness and the worst thing is you can become the darkness.

Gambling by itself is nothing unless you use it for any purposes. You can not same it is sickness in its composition but the real fault is of who is going to use it. It is in fact weakness of human brain and character who let the things like gambling to take over him. My point view is much clear now that sickness is something which just appears by itself due to any reason whereas gambling addiction is engineered by practicing it over and over again for long time.

I also think this is the point, the people that are using it are making it look bad, its not that we are doing something bad, its just that they are doing it bad and that its not our problem at all.
Gambling is not a sickness its just that some people are doing it wrong..

GAMBLING REALLY IS A SICKNESS WHICH EITHER FALLS UNDER EMOTIONAL, SICKNESS, MENTAL SICKNESS OR FINANCIAL SICKNESS
thats what i think

Wow now dont put all caps here, you dont need to shout out your opinion, its against the rules to put all caps like this. I do agree with you but that is correct for addicted gamblers. Some people play for fun maybe once a month bet on their favourite team. That is like a source of entertainment for them even if they win or lose it does not matter.

gambling could either not a sickness in terms of emotions nor a sickness in terms of mental nor a financial sickness . It is the gambler who get sick not gambling, lol gambling does not have emotional feeling nor finance or mental ability.

HAHAHAHA! I agree with this because we all know that gambling is not really a person that will also have a emotion feelings, that is just a game that can entertain people. We are the one's who get addicted in it, so gamblers are the real sick here and not "GAMBLING"

Gambling - legal gambling, are designed for entertainment and the one that abuses themselves gambling are the one that is sick and not the game itself. If you only play for fun and nothing more, then you will have acquired the true goal of gambling - to entertain you and let that stress go away.

Rich people can use gambling as their source of entertainment when they are bored or stress but in my case, I will not use my money just to entertain myself because I don't have enough money for me to lose in gambling.

I do not think that we should blame gambling for all of this because the people decide for them selves to go out and gamble no body is saying that they have to gamble.
People can make there own choices if they want to spend money on gambling then they should.

Indeed, gambling is not wrong, because gambling appears to give some solutions that may not be done by some existing activities. gambling is actually just for the fun of it, but eventually misused by those who only think of profit and want to get rich quick (greedy)

Exactly that is true people have very wrong thinking about gambling because take it as way to make profit for their daily life, even it is one of best way to make fun with this exciting way and that I also will do agree with you, it depend on our mind which made it sickness there.

well i can be very easy for us to say that gambling should only be for fun as i also agree with that. it's just hard sometimes for other people especially for beginners because when you actually get the feeling of winning already there's that urge to try to win more. then f you lose you'll get that urge to try and win it back. i think it's already human nature. gambling is not sickness, addiction is but sometimes it really very hard for people to avoid it

It is a shame if you blame gambling it self for the addiction of people.

you can says such as that because you aren't addicted from gambling and what about for those who has already addicted and they having trouble to stopping gambling i think addicted gambling is not so different such as sickness but maybe will not attack your body because you will feel healty but without people realize that addicted from gambling will have damage effect for the mind and mentally

This at times described as sickness as well addiction when the person doesn't have a mind to concentrate upon other activities similar to a day job.

Which is why people should be educated about the math’s in gambling, the possibility of earning big is there but more likely than not thanks to the house edge we must expect to lose money on the long run.

Yeah the house edge is really earning a lot of it and for me not the gambling itself is considered as sickness. But the gambling addiction is the one making a gambler being sicked.

And it is the sickness that is very hard to treat because there is no treatment for that kind of sickness.

But, house edge must be the one of the important reason gamblers are getting their sickness of gambling.
No one will argue against it. Even we are having fair house edge, we will not be able to conquer it. Only house edge will win always, and making gamblers suffering with huge losses. Other than gambling addiction, house edge also plays a role to consider gambling as a sickness imho.

This at times described as sickness as well addiction when the person doesn't have a mind to concentrate upon other activities similar to a day job.

Everyone start gambling with small amount only, but once they began to win their bet yes automatically they will increase their betting amount. Yes in that time everyone will become greedy, so in that time nothing will stop them, for this kind of people gambling is considered as sickness.

That is what you called being greedy in gambling, normally those who are looking for money in gambling become greedy and we know with that kind of attitude will not bring success, when you win you still want for more and when you lose you will really chase your bets.

That is right about us never stopping when we win and bet more hoping to win more and when we are losing, we try to always chase our losses. That is precisely what professional gamblers are capitalizing with their techniques also - they just know when to stop when they are winning and do it with discipline. If they lose a session, they don't tend to chase their losses and just keeping their cool.

Maybe if we have that self discipline in gambling that is the time we can get serious in gambling and put a bigger bankroll, with lack of discipline our bankroll is in danger as we are playing with our emotions and when you are in sports you cannot be successful as odd makers are good in making the lines appear to be winnable for the public but in the end it will not win.

If you play on a longer period and heavily play with emotions, then you are going to lose. Of course, there are times that you will win but the chances of losing more is very coming due to house edge. Hence, if you really want that emotion fills in in your gambling, then better only bet an amount that you can willingly afford to lose.
