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.

yes i agree whit this, gambling is a disease, just like alcoholism and drug addiction. Few people play smart but the majority lose the control and consequently also all the money

Just because some people can't control themselves and go yolo does not mean that people who do it from time to time should be considered sick.

The same way as alchool ,drugs,gambling is is used in exessive way will hit you deeply.This three if you abuse them you will get addicted and will become a sicness person,without any interest besides those.Soo gambling cant be called that way as some people just use if on free time,and spending a bit ,trying to grow their portfolio,nothing wrong on that.

The much more appropriate line would be, not knowing when to quit gambling is sickness. Many tend to get addicted to gambling and win or lose,.

I guess a lot of people who fill your free times to gamble, it's because as you say, they are already addicted, lose or win it will not stop them, because gambling like alcohol or drugs are addictive. I guess that's why Gambling should be Considered as a Sickness

Calling it a sickness is just plain retarded. There are too many of these anti-gambling threads on bitcointalk, most of them should be locked because they are repetative.

Gambling can be addictive if you are prone to addiction, there are many groups that do treat this as a sickness and try to help those who need it.

It all depends on the person, I know people that can put a bet on every now and again and only for a small amount and they are happy win or lose, then there are others that put too much on and just can't stop.

No it is not that bad. Because there are many people that have earned a lot of money with gambling so that is very good for them.
Of course there are many people that lost a lot of money with gambling. But it is their own fault because they have to control themselves.

it is already considered as sickness because people even steals money just to gamble more, it is same as drugs or smoking, once you start it you can't stop without help of others, so there are even hospitals to save gamblers from gambling, just to make them stop and fix their life

Well the big problem to the most gamblers besides they become addicted,well they usually spend more then they should,soo the only way out should be stop,but they keep till get no option.Sure just some are on that situation,but when you winning you will take a risk that werent planed to happen,soo if you are winning around 50 -200 dolalrs you will try to get a bigger reward,but well usually you will lost more then win .

I agree if you are winning you should quit while you are, In the end most players lose since there is a constant spread against the player.

Everything in life is gambling in one form or another...

I think all its just if you have an addiction and are stealing and
not paying your bills to gamble etc.

If you treat it as a form of entertainment and keep the stakes small
it wont lead to a problem. When I lose I keep the stakes under $100 so
its not a crushing defeat where I feel like I need to get that money back.

Gambling addiction is, its a very important distinction that needs to be made here.

how the addiction that will be produced after gambling? you will not be able to release the addicted easily. like illness addicting need to be healed. otherwise it will hurt you and make you lose money because you will continue to play and always lose

Gambling is not sickness. If you are lucky in gambling you can make a lot of money and that will be very good.
There is of course more often that you lose money than you win money and that is the problem. Many people lost a lot of money with gambling.

But the core reason is gambling. If you play gambling, you will get addiction which leads to all the problems. So, we can simply summarize the root cause of problems as gambling. I also consider gambling as a modern age sickness to our society.

There will always be gambling in free societies, trying to stop gambling is like trying to stop alcohol, it never works. In the long term, there would be an huge underground gambling scene so you might as well have it accepted and regulated if the government wants their cut out of gambling, that's why they sell alcohol and cigs too. They are still stubborn in trying to fight weed for some reason tho. Prolly has to do with weapon business.

Actually gambling is already considered as a metal illness by some psychologists, but who cares. Gambling itself is a form of entertainment, addiction is a separate health issue. You can find people who are susceptible for forming addictions, everywhere not just in gambling. BTW being a maniac workaholic can ruin someone's family life just as much as being an addicted gambler, but in a different way.

Gambling is a sickness when it turns into a addiction but most things can turn into addiction with enough repetition.
It hardwires the brain making the pathway stronger from usage. The only reason gambling is classified differently than breathing in and out is because currency is involved.

The amount of gambling threads most likely started by 17-25 year olds is actually proof of science. That is the prime age to get some one addicted to gambling for life. The brain is still getting its final tweaks and its a impressionable time.

The question is that our discipline disappears on the same moment you are in profit,you will imagine i had spent 20 and wont 100 soo if i invest anothers 20 i may reach 200 doo lets try,when you stop gambling your balance is near the 0 already.It shouldnt be consideres as skickness as you like to play and you know the risks the momement you start gambling.
