As for those who lose, the more they lose, the more bitter they become. The more they lose, the more they want to continue playing, and have to play even bigger to get back what they lost. Even when they lose everything, they still desire to "burn themselves" into gambling pits day and night. The circle of addiction keeps spinning, with no end in sight.

I agree. As a long time gambler, I know the feeling if you're in a losing streak (especially if your main desire is to win) it's depressing and getting back what you've lost is what you can only think of.

The reason why losing in gambling is closer for a player to become addicted if they don't have self-control and determine to recover the losses. Acceptance is necessary in gambling especially losing is inevitable even you're confident that you'll get a good result. Because luck is a major factor to win thus keep this in mind before using your hard-earned money and then will regret once you lose it.

Both. When you are winning, you think you can do it continuously, which is not true because after winning, here comes a loss. When you are losing, you keep thinking you can win it back, which is also not true because it will continue to fall until your bankroll is gone. The same cycle will happen every time you play. The more you play, the more you get addicted without realizing that it's hard to quit with those losses you've accumulated.

Why do people like to gamble, even addicted to gambling? Most of the answers are because of joy, money, or stimulation. Winners for fun, losers for money and stimulation.
If they win, Of course that person is not a gambling addict. Do you know the definition of gambling addiction? It is impossible for a winner in gambling to be an addict. Because winners always have a strong stance in gambling, they know how to play in the right place and stop at the right time.
As for those who lose, the more they lose, the more bitter they become. The more they lose, the more they want to continue playing, and have to play even bigger to get back what they lost. Even when they lose everything, they still desire to "burn themselves" into gambling pits day and night. The circle of addiction keeps spinning, with no end in sight.

Yeah, both can makes someone becomes addicted and lose his control because gambling can makes him come back to gambling. He will not hold the will to gambling if he doesn't have control over himself and will only follow his minds to still gambling. He must remember that gambling is only for enjoy his time so he must know when he need to quit gambling. If he play gambling more and more without stops for a while, that can makes him lose his control and will be deeper in gambling and that is difficult for him to leave gambling. That is why many people becomes addicted to gambling even if they win or lose so we really must avoids that for our own good.

- Even if you are not addicted to gambling, you still experience losing and winning, but what often happens is that we lose when playing gambling.

And sometimes the fact that a gambler won once becomes the reason for a player to go back and forth in gambling without realizing that the amount he is losing is already large.

Losing is something that definitely happens in gambling because this is a business that has been developed whose aim is to make a profit from the many people who gamble and it is natural that we as players often only experience defeat because that is the strategy they play. . Apart from that, the fault of many people or players who play is that they cannot accept this fact, they do not accept it when the gambling they do ends in defeat so they have thoughts where they want to recover the losses that have occurred even though it is clear that no matter how the gambling is carried out, the chances are that it will only will end in defeat so this should be accepted.

when they have won their chances of going back to gambling are big, even though they immediately cashed in their winnings and left gambling it doesn't mean they will stop of course every once in a while there will be a feeling of wanting to gamble again because they feel they have won which is a sure thing. they are confident they will be able to win again. However, this indirectly makes them subconsciously continue to gamble even though they have experienced quite a big loss.

I think both factor to a certain level can you someone a gambling addict because there is the stage of winning and then not knowing when to actually stop playing and if you are not careful enough you might just end up losing out and then there is the part that losing comes in place , I mean it's the hardest to stop when you know you are already at loss so it's takes the two together to actually get your mentality all fucked up for good.

I also thought as much, so that the reason I bring up the thread to this board for others to say from their perception. When a gambler win he wouldn't want to stop trying until he lose and when the losing are much he will still continue because he might be thinking that he could recover what he has lost. Gamblers should know that gamble that gamble is luck based game, even if we predict we might get closer to the winning point but truth be told that without luck there is no winning.

It's true that both of these factors can make us addicted, the temptation of gambling is strong and the end result of winning or losing can both make us addicted to gambling, especially if we can't control ourselves, especially when we win, of course the temptation will make us crazy. automatically have the thought that you can still get an even bigger win and with that of course you won't stop gambling, you don't even know when to stop, even when you have won, instead of cashing out you want to get more, while the risk is of course even bigger. The desire to win will return and also the feeling of annoyance that will make us want to recover losses will arise when the victory that has been obtained is lost.
When the result has occurred, whether it is winning or losing, and we take the wrong step in our thinking, it is very likely that the future will be a disaster. Gamblers will feel the difficulty of stopping gambling, in fact I am sure that everyone who has gambled has experienced something like this, but there are a small number of people who can calm their emotions and stop their desire to continue gambling.

What really makes a gambler to become addicts to gamble?
Lose or winning?

When you are losing or winning, these two conditions you experience can cause you to become addicted.
In my opinion, the way to evaluate it is very simple, when you are losing, your curiosity about winning will increase and you will be obsessed with chasing the money that has been spent. On the other hand, when you win, your adrenaline will grow with a positive perspective, especially since you have succeeded in winning a large amount of money. The desire to continue playing will arise within you because there is a strong urge to win more, if at that time your winnings start to decrease due to losing in several rounds, you will feel challenged and want the money back.

Isn't it all about money and greed? So I think what makes us addicted to gambling is not winning or losing but the fact that we cannot control our desires and greed. The winner will want to win more while the loser will feel challenged and want to get back the money.

Gambling is for entertainment but many people see it as a place to earn income, make money and some people are abusing it because they cannot control their desires. If they know how to control themselves and consider it entertainment, they will never be addicted, whether they win or lose.

Consistency is genuinely what leads to addiction. Repeating a gambling habit is the easiest road to getting compulsive. Win or lose, both, leads to addiction. But, it all relies on the player's mindset, preparations, and knowledge of gambling. However, a player's loss of money puts in the pressure of trying over and over, until it becomes a routine. Then, his challenges sets in with lack of money, control, and management. Which are three main factors that could make a gambler vulnerable to test any winning strategy offered to him. Moreover, whatever it is that convinces a player to chase losses remains the absolute cause of his gambling addiction. And the purpose for chasing after losses all differs for individual gambler.

Many of you have seen an addicted gamblers and if am correct some of us have been addicted to gamble but fortunately for you, you were lucky to realize how bad addiction can be and you limit yourself from gamble or take a break from anything bets.
However, it's just a simple question about addicted gamblers, like the topic above.
What really makes a gambler to become addicts to gamble?
Lose or winning?

A gambler becomes addicted regardless of winning or losing when they start feeling like someone owes them shit, either the universe or the casino. Gambler's fallacy coming in on situations like this, as well as revenge gambling if they are losing. If they are on the other hand winning, they end up addicted after pressing their luck and losing all their shit, at that point all they really wanna do is win back whatever they lose, but they will never be able to do that.

So yeah, gambling addiction starts when people do stupid decisions on choices that otherwise do not need your entire brain's power to even make. You know you should've quit when you got that massive win, you know that you should've called it a day when you lose 3 times in a row and you're practically down a couple hundred dollars, but instead, you thought the universe or the casino owes you something so you're going to claim it, realizing that's not even on the table.

In reality, a gambling addicts are not driven by the result and outcome of winning or losing but rather, they are chasing the rush of dopamine and adrenaline that comes from risking their money. Do you think such an addict will ever stop after winning a significant amount? They typically continue gambling until losing everything, then chasing losses under the excuse of winning back what they have lost.

Many players who become addicted to gambling often struggle with other forms of addiction, making them more susceptible. The involvement of money boost the thrill and excitement, initially drawing people in. However, over time, they may raise their bets to maintain the same feeling as before, leading to significant losses and quick addiction. As we have seen many stories, between those who won big and spent that money again in casinos, or those who lost all their savings over one night.

The urge of winning big and the fantasy of hitting the jackpot can drive people to extremes and foolish moves. Mixed with the great advertising of the gambling industry in our time, addiction becomes more easier than before.

You are right, and I completely agree with you, and since it's already established that both winning and losing can lead a gambler into becoming addicted to gambling, lets now conclude that it is the gambler's mindset, approach to gambling that determine if he or she will become addicted to gambling or not.

How a gambler choose to go about gambling after experiencing a good win, or after experiencing a huge loss, is ultimately what determines if that gambler will potentially become addicted to gambling, and this is why it's always very important for us all as gamblers to pay attention to our actions, most especially when ever such things as a major win or loss occurs/happens, we should do away wit any thing or action that might represent greed, and only do what we are sure will not affect us mentally.

How he embrace the situation will dictate his fate inside this industry, like what I've mentioned more on how a person adopt the environment even he lose if he try to push forward to recover then addiction may trigger and same with winning if he feels that he can do whatever he wants and think that there's always a possibility to win, then expect that he might lose a lot and become addicted, it's always on how you take your responsibilities and a good control over your emotion and finances.

It’s very seldom to be addicted due to frequent winning since only few manage a consistent profit in gambling but both winning and losing can cause addiction.

Getting a large number of wins (overwhelmingly large relative to the number of losses) is quite simple, it all depends on the odds you bet on.
I remember playing dice with odds of 1.1. After the first unsuccessful throw of the dice, I doubled the bet tenfold and if I won, I returned to the original bet. If I lost twice in a row, I doubled my bet again. Thus, I increased the initial bet by 100 times and on average my winning percentage was >90%.

How both ends could lead to addiction is really hard to deal with, because if it were to be that one will not and the other does then there will be expectations that if one happens, the gambler will see reason to exit and probably be safe from the repercussions of continually gambling.

For some I believe loosing at a stretch is most likely to be a deal breaker for them than when they are winning, this is most particular when the gambler probably has not won a game before, they get discouraged and may not want to continue but for the one who has won before and later lost, they will still remain curious and believe it's possible they can still win again.

It's true, both of these situations can really trigger addiction, as you have explained in a simple way which I think is easy to understand. One of the reasons why someone can become addicted when they experience defeat is because they have a high level of curiosity which will continue to encourage them to continue the session until in the end they will only stop when all their money is gone.
And another thing about winning, you have explained the scenario that gamblers will experience and feel when they are in this situation, where it is very likely that hope and confidence will increase which will continue to encourage them to play in pursuit of a much bigger win. and this is a situation where gamblers will have difficulty ignoring their own greed. In conclusion, a losing situation can indeed make a gambler continue gambling, but this is not entirely based on them being addicted, but rather because they are curious and unable to accept the situation of losing.

To become addicted to gambling there are a few factors that trigger addictions in any person because it requires a long period of negative trends and mentality to develop addiction viruses in a person, in gambling one of the primary and most popular ways to get addicted is by being a greedy gambler, by the time you no longer gamble for fun and now gambling because you want to make profits or recover from your previous loses you have higher tendency to become addicted.

As far as you can remain decipline and follow your set principles, you can easily avoid becoming addicted, so I say greed is the primary cause of addiction in gambling.

It varies from person to person. I have seen both cases: when a person is winning, he becomes addicted, and when a person is also losing, he also becomes addicted. But in the long run, the winning isn’t constant. You have to face losses only; hence, in these cases, as the gambler has tasted victory and winnings, the addition develops more to gamble and convert the loss into a win. Generally, gambling addiction is seen in rich people, and they gamble to defeat their egos and hence get into addiction. Addiction is really bad, and each person has different reasons to get addicted.

Both situation can make people becomes addicted to gambling so we must be careful and not lets us gets the same thing as them. We must feels enough to playing gambling after some time and must quit gambling before it's too late to realizes. Gambling addiction can comes anytime in any people especially if they can't control themselves when playing gambling. They will lost their money and secondly, they can becomes addicted to gambling.

That will not be realizes by them as they only see the fun things from gambling and they follows their emotion to keeps playing gambling without stop for a while. Gambling addiction can be seen in poor people because they still have a hope to wins the games and back to their home with a lot of money. That's a dream for many people who playing gambling but unfortunately, not many of them can gets their wins.
