Once a time gambling was centered around a large social event. Gambling house were made temporarily in places where there was a lot of crowd. But later on it became very popular with the people and occasionally gambling was organized. At that moment it starts to expand massively and settles well. Then it is also get legalized. And whenever gambling is conducted over the internet, it creates a world wide frenzy. Nowadays, people are gambling comfortably from their home.

In my native country, games of chance, casinos and casino games were held privately in houses and villas, they were meetings of very select groups where they left all their problems and went to play and enjoy the slot machines and roulettes, this they did. because the country lasted many years with a law that prohibited games of chance.

When we join certain events that are not so old, each country has its own history regarding betting, there is a lot of evidence that people go to casino games to have a different time, betting gives that adrenaline they want feel, that's history for me. , many countries that have prohibited the game must have their methods to survive and play.

In each country there is a different story and that is added to the fact that it is destined with a very precious asset that is bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, something that everyone wants to acquire, and they see it in a very simple way playing, some are filled with glory while others see how your money disappears, I think there are many ramifications within the world of gambling.

Let me ask you a question, what do you call an act when a person goes back to gambling to recover his losses?  Then tell me what is the definition of a gambling addiction?

As you can see gambling addict does not need any reason to gamble.  They have gambling disorder which is the uncontrollable urge to gamble.  Gambling addicts are already broken so they do not need any reason for their gambling activity.  And a gambling addict playing to recover losses is just an illusion because they will continue to gamble after recovering their losses until they lost it again.
And that what makes a person addicted because he do really keep on convincing himself that he could really able to recover losses.When you are addicted then the emotion or the urge on playing
is really there which you do get some point that they might not care on what would happen but one thing that they would be having in mind mainly which is to make money,money,money.
Just come to think that if a certain gambling addict doesnt really have hopes on winning money then that would simply lost up their interest on playing.
Its just common sense.

There is a reason why a gambler is called an addict first once a gambler can not control himself or herself to play because of greediness and aiming for revenge for his/her losses. And what we saw in our society right now some of the gambler spend more time in gambling than their job, so they called a gambling addict.  Spending money in gambling machines has a good percent of winning so without a doubt those gambler get addicted these kind of game.

In many cases gambling addiction comes from losing. Gambler deserve that when they lose large amount of money, they have to gamble to recover their lost assets. Because that lost money is not very easy to earn out side of gambling.
You are right because after losing it makes him gamble again and again hoping to win back the lost money. Here self control matters a lot. However I think it all starts with the winnings, when a gambler wins his first gamble from a site he becomes a bit of an addict and then dares to invest large sums of money only to find himself losing.  So I think it is very important to keep our self control here, and if gambling can be take as entertainment purpose then I think this problem will not exist.


I believe that is chasing losses and not gambling addiction.  As far as I know, an addicted gambler does not care about the result, all he wants is to gamble and gamble until their 24 hours is consumed sitting in front of a gambling machine.  As the description says, gambling disorder is an uncontrollable urge to gamble, it doesn't say chasing losses elsewhere.
Then let me ask you this.

If those addicted person do only play and wont be minding about losses or winnings then what is the main intent on why a certain person continue to play? Is it just for fun? Impossible.
They would be always chasing up to win and whenever they do lose then they would be basically be thinking about breaking even those losses at least and as long they do
have money into their pockets then for sure they would really be still continue to play no matter what.Addiction does have it all when it comes to those kind of intents which
is the cause of such actions.

This is true but for the others it was the opposite. They will only gamble more when they are winning because they think they are lucky that day but when they lose, they will consider that as a sign that they are unlucky so they will not try to play further. I think I can believe on this philosophy because many times I try to avenge my previous deposits but I can't seem to be successful.

My losses are only adding up which makes me more annoyed. Self-control really matters in gambling no matter what sides you are up to because if you don't have it then you will only find yourself losing. Even if you say that you are only gambling for fun and don't mind losing. You will still end up burning more hours in front of your screen or on the machine and you will forget to do other things which are necessary.

What do we think of gambling and what is our major concernment. Because i what to tell you that gambling is not bad and it can be condenmeable, i don't blame people that quits alcohol and take over gambling as best option because when you are looking at it, you will see that gambling is what is going on everywhere and especially casino gambling many people is now using it as best option. So for me i can not leave gambling because i know my what in the gamblling.
Everything that is a lot is bad and especially if the entire effect on it the person is becoming bad. That's why those that don't gamble tell us that gambling is bad and we as gamblers will say that it's not that bad and it will base on the person's activeness and perspective on gambling.
Especially these days, gambling is everywhere because almost all of the people in the world have their own smart devices, be it on smartphones, gadgets, PC or laptops.

You have a point in this matter, it seems that I was not a gambler before and I didn't really like to gamble because I also thought that gambling was bad. Because I see a lot of people get addicted to it and end up ruining their lives.

But when I got into cryptocurrency, I learned how to gamble, but even though I gamble here there is a limit attached. because that's what is important for a responsible gambler to have self-control. If it always helps me, I can't say it's bad. Why the lottery? It is also a type of gambling but it is legally operated here in our country because it also helps the government and its charity program to help the needy.

So what you said is correct, when too much is bad and when not enough is also bad, we should always do it in moderation.
There should be moderation in everything you do in life. There is a saying that too much of everything is bad. Even if you are doing something good, when you over do it, it will no longer be good. I personally have a budget for my weekly gambling, and when I exhaust my budget I will respect myself and leave, then wait for next week.

Why we have to leave gambling at the end where we take it as for fun only ! I think there is nothing wrong when we take its only for entertainment purpose except when a person going to addicted on it . I think the stealing of happiness and health that you speak of will only happen to gamblers who cannot control themselves.
Addiction usually comes from excessive cravings. When gamblers get overly greedy they tend to lose their wealth. There will be no negative consequences for those who gamble in the hope of entertainment.

In many cases gambling addiction comes from losing. Gambler deserve that when they lose large amount of money, they have to gamble to recover their lost assets. Because that lost money is not very easy to earn out side of gambling.
Without a doubt that greed is one of the main components which explains why gambling addiction is actually a thing, however another very important reason is the laziness of people.

We know that obtaining money can be quite challenging for the majority of the people, but those people see in gambling not only a way of earning money but they see it as a way to do so without any effort and this makes gambling even more attractive in their eyes, however they are completely wrong because over several centuries there have been studies done about this and it is basically impossible to beat the house no matter how lucky we may believe we are.
Absolutely correct reasoning that laziness is the main aspect in the issue of gambling addiction.  Of course, who would refuse to just press a button and get paid for it.  Easier earnings for a lazy person can not even imagine.  And in my head, of course, the thought of the possibility of such an easy income is spinning all the time. 
And of course everyone understands that it is possible to lose, but hope still makes a person play.

And of course, the entire world history of the development of gambling is built on such principles.

History of gambling goes back to the ancient times.
Even in religious books there is so much references of the gambling - Hindu and chinese are very fond of gambling and they are good in it too.
For me I think there are different history of gambling which depends on era and region.
When you look at the asia history, you will see that it's quest different from the European gambling history and that of Egypt which is africa.
Difference regions with different history but looking at era and the type of gambling can make it different.

That is quite true, however there are also some similarities among the different regions and idiosyncrasies that you mention. While the details of the gambling and the games are very varied, particularly if you consider the games played in China and the fart East that seem to be quite different from the rest, the concept of betting as "setting a prediction" is common to all and very old.

Actually that is what we should do but unfortunately, not many of us can really leave gambling forever. Some of us still go back to gambling and play our favorite games, although some don't often gamble anymore.

In my opinion, those who leave gambling are the ones who have only lost their money in the early days. The next are those who make a profit but lose everything after greed takes over them. The last ones are those who have lost everything because of gambling addiction and now want to leave it. Other than that I have not heard anyone leaving this addiction so easily.

If we should do trace the history of gambling I don't think that many of us here will I get a vital point of how company started. Gambling is an ancient something that started funny the ancient time so we cannot rest the history because when it is started there will be no there was no record to document the beginning of gambling so that is my own suggestion

I just wondered is there any need to know about the gambling history or are gamblers really interested to know about it ? I don't think gamblers care about the gambling history. They only care to know about the trusted and good gambling sites where they can play and  most importantly they care to make money from gambling.
This is usually the motive of most gamblers and none are aware of how gambling started and all such stuff.

I read what you have written here and commend your research about them before putting them together. As much as I want to believe some points there, I still have the reservation that no one could know when gambling started really, thanks that you added a similar clause too. We can only get to read what some people want us to read about this, while the main truth might never be revealed before of lack of documentation at that time. Gambling would have started shortly after the first human life on the planet earth.

I beg to disagree. Anyone can gamble responsibly. If only people won't abuse it and won't be so much indulged with it, there would be no problem. After all, too much of everything is harmful. Anything must be done with balance and limitations. If you know it to yourself that you do not really possess the self-restraint needed in order to gamble in smooth sailing manner, then you should reconsider entering gambling industry. Otherwise, you'll just dig your own grave. Because one can suffer so much if they can't even control themselves and handle their emotions and urge.

Being accountable of your actions should be your priority the moment you start gambling because no one would look after you except yourself. No one should be blamed if ever things don't go onto your favor because we always have the final say and we are to decide what actions we will take.
What you're saying is completely true but what happens is that in this day and age people are encouraged to not take responsibility for their actions and they are always looking for excuses to try to justify their behavior, and obviously gambling is one of those activities in which we see this over and over again, how many times we have seen people complaining about losing their money to the casinos and how casinos should invent a system of self exclusion that worked across all platforms so they could not gamble in any casino if they self excluded themselves from one, but this is nothing but a dream, if they want to stop gambling then they need to take responsibility and accept that they have drove themselves into a very difficult position and the only way they can get out off it is by taking the first step of admitting that everything is their fault.

It's okay if you don't agree because maybe you are a responsible gambler. But many gamblers out there lose their responsibilities in playing gambling which will upset the balance. I agree that self-control is so necessary for gambling that it will not interfere with what we have made to limit ourselves in gambling.

It is clear that having a responsibility can help us prevent big losses while playing gambling and also prevent the gambling addiction that has happened to many gamblers. By being responsible for playing gambling, we will not cross the boundaries that we make so that we can enjoy gambling.

That is why Gambling business is one of the most stablished one mate, they are even earning big in pandemic when most are closing ?online business boomed and now gains more player than what they have before covid 19 arrived.
The COVID-19 pandemic provides online business opportunities to boom, and online gambling is no exception. And now, online gambling is becoming a trend among gamblers because they can gamble wherever they want.

in the end? whatever we say here? still one thing that represent reality and that is losing is what awaits us in gambling .
Indeed, defeat is very painful for us, but we will be okay if we don't use a lot of money and can limit ourselves to big losses. It depends on how we can do it but some gamblers use big money and if they lose they can accept it. Accepting whatever happens after we finish gambling is something we have to do so we don't get stressed.

Whatever we say - one thing is for sure - we all have to leave gambling at the end for a better and more peaceful mind.
Gambling is fun for the time being.. but it does not bring in much good. Its better to live within one mean and cut all the things with steal away the peace of mind and good health
Actually that is what we should do but unfortunately, not many of us can really leave gambling forever. Some of us still go back to gambling and play our favorite games, although some don't often gamble anymore.

As long as we can use gambling properly, I believe we will be fine and can enjoy our time playing gambling. It all depends on how well we can carry ourselves when playing gambling so as not to cause bad consequences for ourselves.
in the end? whatever we say here? still one thing that represent reality and that is losing is what awaits us in gambling .
