Being addicted with gambling compared to trading is really different but the behavior that would come out would really be just the same on where you do feel
the pressure which do leads to fast decisions without even thinking or realizing on your next possible move.
Hmm, does that kind of addiction really exist? For me being hooked up in trading is much better just to called a habit or more of a home-based job. I know that there are risks in therr but not as worse as the gambling have, it is more of like a business where you earn from your efforts and lose from bad decisions. There is no such thing called luck when it comes to this simply because you are the one who manipulates your money.
Trading does really involves some luck too.I don't know if other members do have the same view as mine but this is what I believe.No matter how good your analysis is but the market
would go to the opposite side will still consider to be unlucky the only difference is that trading can really be learned and good for long term which isn't really possible with gambling.
Entertainment and long term job wont ever collaborate.
Before, in the game, it was very easy for me to fall into addiction, obviously, as in commerce, I lost and did not know why, but I read many important books about the trade of very famous speculative authors and my losses have stopped , the same happens in the game, many people play with their own strategy, but I know that studying some tutorials can help us, since it teaches us to watch the game professionally, therefore, if you have a good strategy and luck, it becomes a winner considering the reason, if he has a good strategy and has no luck, he will know when to leave and avoid a total catastrophe.

Yes it does exist, but you can't easily determine that you're addicted because you're enjoying. I can't consider gambling as one of a so called "home-based job" 'cause you know that the profit we get in gambling is not constant, i mean you can't win always right? I don't considered gambling as business too 'cause like i said, you can't have a constant profit, daily income doesn't exist.

Addiction can happen in every aspect as long it is make the user curious with system of what he do. Not only in gambling, actually trading can make someone addicted whether he is profit or loss. Maybe what we need to focus is control ourself and not let us addicted to something.

Addiction is the most deadly attitude exhibited by most gamblers, this deadly character can cause a major damage to the gamblers and to their entire generation because gambling addiction is transferable, proven by psychologist.

Stay away from gambling addiction, stay away from from BP.

Hi folks,

Yes, as the title says, I see a lot of negativity here with many people complaining. But the issue is not about the odds. You can win even when the odds are not in your favor.

I will explain: many random people everywhere in the world, managed on a random day to win at the national lottery, several millions $. Yet, the odds were not in their favor at all! National lotteries actually impose a much bigger margin (protection) to make sure they win more than they lose.

The point is: you can win big on a given day, if you get lucky. And yes luck strikes everywhere once in a while.

The main issue I see in those threads here is people totally addicted, investing a lot of money, chasing their losses, increasing their stakes after a loss.

The danger is the addiction, not the odds.

My opinion anyway.

Yes that is true. It is not really about the odds anyway, because as far as we concern, odds are already associated in playing gambling as well as other games that we can imagine. The problem is that how people manage those odds that they face. It is either in a positive or a negative way. Positively treating the odds makes you know your limits turning you to stop for a while which is good. But on the other hand treating it in a negative manner gets you stick into playing gambling more than the usual thing because you are already addicted on chasing losses and money which does not make gambling fun anyway because you are already misbehaving on it. That is why whenever I play into an online casino I treat odds on the variety of games I play as a part of the games so I am challenged and getting entertained while playing as well as enjoying great bonus for doing my first deposit.

addiction is which makes us to gamble again & again.Addiction is that which provoke us that we can win in very next match which end up losing so If one can remove addiction he/she definately save from gambling.I really believe that addiction is what can cause people so much.
It seems almost all the gamblers are having good understanding about the dangers of gambling addiction still they are all ignoring it and fighting against the house edge because they are believing only due to the house edge they are unable to crack profits in gambling but the actual reason is they are emotionally getting failed while gambling and then missing out the chances to find what they are actually looking from gambling.

Odds are the core part for gambling houses because they are just a running business in terms of gambling hence they must have it whereas we can gamble responsibly so that we can avoid addictions which will help us to find what we look from gambling.
Yes, most of the gamblers have good understanding about gambling activities, I think that if they have problems with house edge, I think that they should move to sports betting where I do not think that there is any hidden house edge, except a little margin that they get on every bet.

But, for sports betting you need to have some previous experience and good analysis. In fact in sports gambling we cannot totally depend on our luck we must need to have good information about the teams and players.

It is right, it's hard to be addicted to gambilng especially when you can't afford to lose but at some point gambling is just for entertainment with the cost of money. it's really hard to stop when you're too attached at something so my advice is just try to enjoy every game and minimal your bets.

Temptation will be present since you have a gambler friends but there's a way if you really dont want to engage in gambling like avoiding them or making yourself busy in other things.

However if you try to gamble make sure that you can control yourself and you have to set limitation.

Its hard to refrain especially if you're in the mood but you have to do it or else you might become addicted.
In gambling the major problem that most of the gamblers are facing is that they cannot control their emotions. In fact it’s natural that when we lose money, we always try to convince ourselves to play again and recover the lost, but for most of the time we continue losing money and making the lost more bigger which finally create a big financial problems for us.

I think we need to have limited amount of money to play gambling with and should try our best not to continue playing gambling after reaching that limit.

But how about the surroundings? if you have a group of friends who regularly gambles it's possible to be a gambler too.

Yeah, cause i just realized that i'm doing betting just because my friends are gamblers, at first i think it just for fun but when big game comes, we all like giving our salary just to bet and also it's hard to resist not to gamble with your friends.
You are really in touch with your friends, you can't easily escaped from that if you never want it to do.
Anyways, there is no problem gambling with your friends but you just set a limitation. Cause it will never be good anymore if you'll get into addiction.
Friends are just friends and I know they will understand you if you'll never do gambling.
i already talked to them about me getting hooked by gambling, of course they understand they said that it's okay to gamble as long as i can control my bets and have fun and they will be there if anything goes south about gambling. that's why i'm just doing some side bets and bets to the team and players that i support.
Yes, that is very true, in fact it is not dangerous to become addicted to gambling, but I personally think that the most dangerous is to lose our control over our emotion. A lot of people are there who play gambling for a long long time but they have their control over their emotion and therefore they still continue playing gambling in an effective way.

Whenever i play, i never play with the odd but play with my instinct for the best game.
You can choose whatever games you may prefer which does not mean that you are playing safer from gambling addictions. Moreover the chance for getting addicted is more when you gamble with your favorite games as it may attract you to gamble more frequently.
It is really not good to become addicted in gambling, I think that people become addicted when they have expectation from gambling to make a lot of money from there, and even after losing money in gambling still they bargaining for playing gambling again and again which make them addicted and then it became difficult for them to get control over their addition.

It will need a strong mind to prevent us from becoming a gambler. That is hard because the tempting to play will always there especially our friends still asking us to play with them. And it is why we need to know how to reject if they ask to join in the games. Perhaps we can follow them to play together in one time in a week but don't follow them every day because we know that the chance to become addicted will wide open.
Its our decision that will matter and no matter who their are if you know what is right you will do it. Beside, those are just your friends and not even your family so if they are true with your friendship they will not force you to gamble and they will respect your decision. The danger in addiction can be avoided in early stage, just control yourself.

The gambler should know that he/she should gamble with what they can afford to loose only this way will they not be addicted in the game of gamble.
No, you will get addicted even you are gambling only with those affordable money. Because, if you get some small money on daily basis and if that money is affordable to lose then if you gamble daily then you will get addicted to gambling and then you will start to gamble even with the money which are not affordable to lose. I mean we should not gamble frequently or whenever we have affordable money, otherwise we will get addicted slowly.

Whenever i play, i never play with the odd but play with my instinct for the best game.
