I think this is both. You need to be careful yourself only while gambling. Be it physical or virtual gambling, you need to always set a budget or balance for the gambling. Don’t gamble beyond this limit. Moreover gambling is all about game of luck, hence it’s alright to make losses. To be honest, I have always kept this thing in my mind while gambling, hence I have never landed in such a situation.
We should apply wise decision in any condition we find ourselves. I know it's never easy to make the right choice every single time. Gambling is not easy task to anticipated, I've come across gamblers that have lost themselves in the space due to gambling and making gigantic losses. There's this fact about gambler, when they're losing, they fumble and lose confidence while the ones winning always proves to be formidable and buoyant in the system, they're not holding any doubt because they're keen on printing money from the system.

What could cause a gambler to place a bet to the extent that he no longer has money to pay for the games he played?


This story happened in my presence on Friday, when I visited a physical betting shop to book some games after that my battery ran down in the process of trying to place some bets with my smartphone to bet on a game that will kick-start in some minutes. There I was, there was this gentleman who was there before me playing the visual game and to cut the whole story short at the end, the gambler started having issues with the person who placed the games for him, reason being that after playing the visual game the gambler no longer has the money to pay the person, and he optioned to dropping his smartphone until when he brings the money and the money amounts to about $15+ and this lead to the owner of the shop inviting the police to settle the matter.

So the question now is: What could really put a gambler in such a situation, addiction, or greediness?

It's a big no-go to place bets with money that you don't have or can't afford to lose. There is no excuse if your bet went against you and you can't afford to pay the bookmaker. The money should be taken out of the salary immediately and it should be a good lesson to not repeat the same mistake. When it comes to big physical casinos or online casinos we always need to deposit money first before placing bets. The bookies want to make sure that we actually have the money in case we lose it. Getting a loan from the bookie to place bets seems like a terrible idea. It's hard to tell if it's really a gambling addiction, for that we would need to know if it has happened before and how the rest of his gambling activities look like. I would probably say it's more greed, he might be thinking that low risk bets have no chance of losing and he got proven wrong. Or he has lost several bets before and thinks now that he can't lose anymore.

So the question now is: What could really put a gambler in such a situation, addiction, or greediness?

I think they are trapped in the gambling addiction cycle because it has the hope of the Ministry of Religion. Where they missed gambling wrong, the majority of gamblers who did gambling and their goal was a profitable victory. They really have the hope of getting a big profitable victory by gambling. Although the gambling carried out always ended with defeat, but most likely and many cases are also they still gamble and continue to gamble because they still have the thought of gambling that can bring a profitable victory, with this makes them committed impulsive acts, where they continue Gambling without thinking about the losses that occur. Many cases of gambling addicted to gambling motifs that trap, thinking about profitable victory in my opinion is wrong, I mean hope it is not wrong, but sometimes the hopes that have sometimes become traps, plunge us on impulsive actions that do not beneficial but detrimental. Also with them became addicted to gambling because the actions of themselves were no elements from the casino, because the casino itself did not demand them to do gambling frequently.

Generally humans certainly have dissatisfaction or greedy, especially with the name of money. In gambling it is said to be able to get a profitable victory and that is money, after all who does not want money, of course everyone will want money especially in large quantities, by gambling that is said by using a little capital can get that big victory of course of course Just tempting, but what must be considered victory in gambling is difficult to obtain, instead with victory many people spend a lot of money just to get a victory and maybe there are also many cases about people whose finances are messy due to gambling. If only they could be aware of the real gambling is a paid game where there is a profitable victory can be obtained if we are lucky. Sometimes even when they get a victory they are not aware, they still continue gambling with confidence can get even greater victory, but the possibility of the end of gambling is certainly loss or defeat. All the adverse effects of gambling are due to wrong self -acting from the beginning.

Both can be a cause to put a gambler in such a bad behaviour and habbit. First of all due to greediness a person gets engaged in gambling when he win in gambling then his greediness increases but when he losses in gambling then this greediness turns into addiction.

An addictive gamblers never think about his family and loyalty but continuesly doing bad things just to find out a way to continue gambling. If it happens in our country then gambler will not be able to call a police because here gambling is strictly prohibited and if someone is gambling then he never shows to others about his gambling.

For countries that still prohibit gambling, of course, gambling businesses will have their security. so they will not involve state institutions that could destroy their business.
but in countries where gambling is legal, those who pay taxes to the state certainly have the right to have their business protected.
However, it is the fault of the gambler who plays to the end and he or she may enjoy the game so much and be so ambitious about winning that they forget that all their money is gone.
All gambling activities must be carried out responsibly. if they lose everything and can't go home, then there must be consequences.

It is natural that a gambler who is addicted will easily get emotional when he continues to lose in every game so that he can no longer gamble anymore because he has already spent his money. Indeed, sometimes someone who is addicted cannot control himself, causing riots and greed. , and many people are easily provoked just because of gambling and don't have clear thinking in making any decisions.

In this case, it can be concluded that if the shop owner realizes that the gambler no longer has money, he should no longer be allowed to play because after all, if the money runs out, it means the game is over, there are no additional minutes of time or bonuses for continuing to play if you no longer have money. because things like this will definitely cause confusion and also losses for the owner, indeed he has given his smartphone but that doesn't mean it's just paid off because it has caused discomfort for other visitors. A gambler who is addicted is indeed difficult to advise because of his thinking. those who can't think straight.

this is a trick question, right?

We've all heard stories of that one big win that never quite materializes.  At the end of the rainbow there may be no pot of gold - only empty pockets and regret.  Perhaps it stems from addiction, greed, or a combination of factors.  Either way, the lure of easy money can cloud judgment and rationality.  Some folks truly wrestle with addiction; others get caught in the thrill-seeking of risk-taking.  Many are driven by financial desperation rather than simple greed.  And of course, the gambling industry employs sophisticated methods to keep customers betting.

There are no easy answers here.  But one thing does seem clear: relying on gambling to solve one's problems often leads to more problems.  Moderation and perspective are valuable, if difficult to maintain.  Perhaps the wisest course lies less in judging others and more in examining what truly drives our own behavior.

Addiction+greed+impulsiveness+lose control etc...

Once you do reach out into a certain condition that you are already betting on what you do have, not talking literally money then this is a solid indication that you are already that an addicted person.
No one on their right minds would really be making out such dealing if you do know that there's no money left for you to be able to do so. When greed kicks in then this is where desperation
would really be seen through. You would really be able to realize things after once you've been able to face up those kind of confrontations.

This is why it would really be always best that you should really be that sensible on the actions that you are taking. Play for fun and if you do saw that you dont have
the money that you could really be able to play on, then better stop completely and dont ask for more. This is where people do mess up their
lives due to that bad decision making.

Many people when they start playing cannot control themselves, so these people play until all the money they have in their pockets runs out, and it is a sad and regrettable situation, but it does not only happen with games of chance, if they are in places where selling beers will see that the owner of the place where they sell beer is a person who has a list of many people who have incurred debts in the place where he sells beer, and were in debt to consume beer. This is because alcohol is something that easily makes people addicted, which causes a lot of damage in many families, even reaching the frightening level of people using their entire salary to pay off the debt they incurred with drinks. now gambling addiction is more problematic in the sense that if the person plays in online casinos

It is enough for the person to sell whatever they have nearby and they will continue playing and it is unlikely that other people in the real world will find out and even when they do find out, it will be difficult for them to stop the person who has problems with gaming, because nowadays there is a device in every corner. that goes online and that person can keep playing, in my case I don't have problems with games, I can maintain my self control well, I'm not playing every day, there are only a few days when I play and I've always taken long gaming holidays, In other words, I haven't played for 3 months and whenever there is a week without games from the big football leagues, I also don't place sports bets.

So the question now is: What could really put a gambler in such a situation, addiction, or greediness?
I think that for a gambler to behave like this might be because he is familiar to the bet shop, maybe he do gamble in that bet shop regularly, which has made him to know the bet attendant, and he might have done it before that the game worked for him, and he was able to pay for his gamble, or the bet attendant do allow him to pay for his gamble later.
In this case, not all, he isn't a regular customer of that particular betting shop because according to the gentleman who owns the shop he even said that this was really the first time of him seeing the gambler come to the shop to place his bet, because when the situation got to an extent where the owner had to involve the police to settle the matter, most of us there were advising him to take a hold of the guy's smartphone to rest the case, he said this is the first time of him seeing the man in the shop that he should have considered. So, who knows if this is how the guy does go around in various gambling shops with such behavior.

We used to do this when we were teens, placing bets against someone hoping to win and getting something without risking anything but our faces. We call this 'ghost money', and if you lose the bet, you just run as fast as you can or try to hide/blend in the crowd before disappearing. We were lucky to not lose any bets from doing this, but I know for sure that if we lose it, we're done for. We were not addicts in any way, we just wanted to have some money to buy snacks and booze and this is the only way we know how to get it quick and easy.

In the case of the man in question, I guess he does have some money but forgot how much he brought. Him leaving his phone to the shop and promising to pay back is quite typical. Also, if it's only $15, the value of his phone might easily cover that. If I was the cop handling this case, I'd take the guy's word and suggest the owner to just get the phone as collateral if the man isn't back after a certain period of time.

However, it is not advisable and I believe that the owner of the bet shop is not aware of such, that was why he called for the arrest of the gambler. I will call this addiction, because if he is not addicted he should have not gamble without money.

Fortunate enough and proudly to say that I didn't come to this, you see I grew up in a poor household and I saw first hand what having debts unpaid is going to make your life, it was a miserable time for the family and I swear to myself that never in my day as someone who'll eventually get their own money, that I would never ever get into a big debt and that always get the habit of having to pay on the agreed upon time, my point is that I never leave my house without a huge amount of money especially if I gamble or do something outside because I don't want to ask for a loan from other people or that I would get indebted to someone because I failed to pay them the right amount. Hopefully not a lot of people have experienced this kind of awkward and shameful situation because if I ever was caught in that kind of situation I'd probably wish that the ground beneath would just swallow me whole, can't live in that kind of shame.

Regards to what could put them there, I think it's a bit of both with the mixture of arrogance because they've taken for granted the convenience that they forgot an emergency and awkward situation like that can happen and so they end up landing in that situation, I say bot greed and addiction because I do believe that they're a pair when it comes to this, you're so greedy about money that you got addicted to gambling and even when you've got a problem that needs some solving like this one in the story, you still push through with your habit despite knowing that the owner of the betting shop isn't going to like it.

What could cause a gambler to place a bet to the extent that he no longer has money to pay for the games he played?
It’s simple, the hope that you could come by a big win later on in the game but the chances that this might ever come to be is so slim. I have had to see this happen many at times and the people I always blame when this happens is the gambling agents. This is the agent having to bring familiarity into the gambling business, noting some gamblers to be credit worthy and others to be not. This shouldn’t be the case for gambling. A gambler who is credit gambling is one that could be seen as an addict or someone who is just desperate and doesn’t know when or how to call it a day.
The chances that such loss would be recovered is difficult and should be avoided. You get to pay as you play, easy and safe for everyone.
It’s just embarrassing that some gamblers do this and am sure they always get there bunch in full.

Your scenario is shockingly typical and highlights the dangers of binge gambling. A lack of self-control and a misunderstanding of gambling's nature have caused many problems in my years of betting and monitoring human behaviour. Know when to stop, not only addiction or greed. Many gamblers chase losses like the individual you mentioned. The need to recover losses drives this behaviour, not greed. This risky cycle can swiftly increase, leading to illogical and financially harmful judgements.

I've learned to admit a problem and seek aid in such situations. Gamble to entertain, not to win. Setting and sticking to budgets is key. Knowing that the house always wins helps avert the situation you experienced.

What you said is very common because a real jusharu always keep some of his funds and bet but not always profitable and win the bet eventually he can lose all his money or go because if he is too addicted Become addicted to money. So it should always be remembered that a gambler should bet without betting his money so that later he can afford to earn from the rest of his money. But I think as a gambler he should not get addicted to this game.

For me it's not really a greediness, what happens is that the spirit of gambling has taken the young man away, due to his more money and not knowing that he has exhausted his money, let us try to understand that in gambling two things is involved, either you lose or you gain, for me, if I'm the gambler, I would have given them my phone to make sure that their is no noise there, because is not good for we to own a betting center despite your condition, neither you make a proper arrangement of betting on credit with them than after betting you don't have money to pay them, they can consider you to bet on credit base on your commitment with them, when you are not committed with them or be a regular customer to them they will not give you such privilege to bet on credit or give you that chance of owning them.

In such a scenario, it's not purely down to addiction, because most people will feels like it can only happens to an addictive gambler, but no, it can happen to any gambler that is bent on getting back his or her losses without realizing that he is now going the extra miles just to get back his fund.

As for me, I have not been such a terrible gambler, I only gambles when I feels like, and it's during weekends, and anytime I want to gambles, I do it with the intention of just trying my luck, not a manner that will warrant me to lose an amount I can't afford to lose.

So the question now is: What could really put a gambler in such a situation, addiction, or greediness?

That is greed. He was too greedy to chase victory, so he spent all his money on his games on his smartphone even though he had a responsibility to pay for his other games. Sometimes this greed makes players blind, so they forget their other responsibilities just to pursue momentary pleasure. He was too trivial in thinking that he could win one more game and recover his losses by gambling his last money, when in fact the opposite happened, he lost all his money.
