Topic: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. - page 37. (Read 4673 times)

if we take 100 people who play games of chance and ask these 100 people why they are playing, most of the 100 people will answer that they are playing because they want to have fun, so if we ask them if they are happy when they lose, we will hear answers like : NO. but that is an obvious answer. now if we make a little comparison about fun. one person has 50$ and goes to the beach and spends it all on food, takes pictures and buys some things and goes home happy and with 0$, another person takes 50$ and goes to a restaurant to drink beer and eat with friends and takes pictures and come home very late and with 0$

another person takes 50$ and stays at home playing in some online casino, stays for a few hours and loses everything. when we put the three people together the next day and ask how your previous day was, the answer will be obvious: the guy who stayed at home gambling and lost everything in the games of chance will be sad and regret having played, if he had won he would be celebrating. so was he playing for fun or money? no doubt it was for the money. Nobody likes to lose, and it's precisely because nobody likes to lose that when people lose they play even more to recover everything they lost.

and with that they become addicted to gambling, people start to isolate themselves from the real world, they get depressed due to many defeats, that's why even if they won they wouldn't stop playing, because they want to win more, games should be seen as fun, something people look at and know I'm going to bet 10$ and if I lose it's okay and in the next game don't think about the 10$ you lost, don't bet for revenge and don't bet to recover the 10$, go back to bet 10 $ as always

Yes, you are right, and it is something I have talked about many times. What really vitiates you is having won. If you bet and you don't win anything, you find it boring and you don't feel like playing.

Even when you've been betting for a long time, something similar happens. If you go on a streak where you don't win, you get bored, but if you start to win some small prizes, the excitement rises.

I also think that there is nothing to bring you to becoming addicted when you have lost money except when you have lost in an offline casino and there have been people around you,so you feel the need to come back here and win back the lost amount which is the first step of addiction,this is because of our personal pride,luckily very few persons who were born 1990 and after go to such casinos nowadays so the risk here is small.

In playing online gambling when you lose money there is a higher chance you quit rather than go back to play and thus risking to get addicted,no one watches you when you are playing online so the level of the pride is really low when we lose money,I agree addiction starts to come as soon as you win a nice decent substantial amount of money.

Yes, it depends on the perception and perspective of each person, my personal view is that someone can be addicted to gambling without having to win the game, let's say he does 100 spins on the gambling machine and gets several wins but also loses more, so he doesn't have to win also they can get addicted because they are definitely curious about getting that win.

In the end they continue to play gambling until they get the win they hope for but the result is a loss, they can also experience addiction when they get a win, just like when new casino users will read player behavior for example new accounts are very often lucky to get wins so the casino knows that gamblers will come back again to gamble to get even bigger wins. that's how to react to gambling, the most important thing is to just control playing gambling so you don't get addicted

Not wrong. Beginners who are just playing will be faced with these two things, doubt and uncertainty.

Players who have experienced money from gambling wins will not all be complacent and will continue to gamble. That is, the basic goal of trying to play gambling is to find out the ins and outs and usually a player like that can decide to stop playing when he has got what he wants.
This does not mean that not all players can forget about gambling.

If we can win in several rounds, that's when addiction will come, and if we can feel that, we should immediately reduce our gambling activities so that we don't get addicted to gambling. Gambling addiction cannot be guaranteed, but we can only feel that gambling addiction has arrived. And because of that, we must be careful when playing gambling and be able to recognize if gambling addiction has started to interfere with emotions that are starting to increase.

Becoming addicted to gambling can also come when we have not been able to win a gambling game, making us more curious. That can trigger us to use more money even though we don't know whether, with more money, we can win or still lose.

Not at stake, if you play the house games.

You always start in a hole and try climbing out, but while doing so you just dig the hole deeper.

One I have played blackjack for a while and lost 25 out of 30 hands. At a game where the odds are 43.3% for a win, 8.7% for a push, and a loss is 48.0% this is very strange math.

And this is not the only time this happened. I often lost 60-70% of games, while I should lose 48. In other words, it is definitely not a fair game.

And back to the topic, this is exactly what triggers reckless gambling. They will say, oh the odds even out in the long run. Yeah but if you ALWAYS start with 60-90% losses, and I mean always, it doesn't matter if it evens out in the long run, because after a couple of hands you have already lost all your money.

No, gambling addiction starts not only when you get a win but when you experience defeat it can also cause a high curiosity to win and keep trying to continue playing or betting until you are addicted.
There are many people out there who often lose but are even more active in gambling, so it would not be right to say that the cause of gambling addiction is only when you get or feel a win.
First entered the gambling industry, of course you would lose more often, but over time you still gamble to be able to have a win and keep trying until curiosity has enveloped your life to keep betting.

If you are onto gambling for the first time it's not possible to get addicted to gambling because you haven't tasted what winning feels like, you will be consumed by doubts and uncertainty.

But wait till you have a taste, win some money, that's where you start feeling like there is more if you keep digging, is this not where gambling addiction starts?

We have had a lot of conversations about gambling addiction, but I had the same conversation with someone close yesterday and this was my answer to him.

Do you think its possible to become addicted to gambling when you haven't win a dime or after you win?

I think addiction starts after you win, even if it's just once, that's when you start gambling recklessly and you also start betting higher.
