The trigger is to have money and an invitation from friends to bet, it could be people who are initially just trying but with the pleasure obtained at the beginning will trigger them to continue gambling without realizing they have lost a lot, and then they will continue gambling to win or just want to have fun. I think there are many factors and the main possibilities are environmental factors and the need to get money quickly even though it seems impossible but for those who already know gambling, then they will gambling.

Could be one factor as well, - environment. If you see friends or families playing then I'm sure that at one point in your life you will be tempted and then you are hooked and can't give up your gambling addiction. Environment plays a big factor not just in gambling but on all facets of life. So it's very difficult to get out, and even if you have plans to exit but the people around you are encouraging you to play again and again, it's nearly impossible to quit.

Overall, the thing is that its greed. For everything that happens, if you want easy money, it would also become easy to go. I doubt that people who gamble think about pleasure but the thought of just having the money or playing for money is already a cause enough for a trigger to happen. Having that jolt of feeling, that happiness. I think that's what they crave. They probably focus on the wrong stuff like on their wins only, not on their losses.

I have searched books that could possibly be helpful to everyone who is experiencing gambling addiction.

The basics and most common:

Expected Profits that will lead into Desired to Win.

Desired to win that will lead into Winning Experience.

Winning experienced that will lead into much more targets.

And lastly that targets and goals will now lead gambling to take over a gambler's emotion.

And from Emotions, it's now up to people to control it or become being controlled.

From my personal experience, I feel more addicted to gambling when I keep losing my bets. The combination of losing your money and you want to get them back, along with the chance of making a profit and grow your fund make you addicted to Gambling.
Expectations trigger Addiction. And also no one can deny the fact that people feel entertained when they gamble. I am not an expert but maybe some hormones like Adrenaline are strongly correlated and trigger addictions such as gambling.

Yes thats the other side, but there are people, including me that are most addict when we win. According to my analysis, if people doesnt win in a game, they easily get bored and will turn to other things which can be useful to them. But if people win and then lose and then win and then lose again, they will have this hope of winning like the one they experience and this is why they become addict.

Sometimes the triggering effect of gambling addiction is what the person's been going through in his life. Some may have a difficult time that pushes them to starts to gamble to have fun. Same goes when someone is an alcoholic too, and you see when someone wins, they know how it feels that's why it starts to make an effect on their body and medical practitioner called it a dopamine hormone.

Though addiction can be distinguished if that person keeps coming back to what he has been doing in the past.

Were on the same boat mate as that what also triggers my addiction . when i loose i feel angry and i bet again higher than the previous one but when i won sometimes i dont feel contented and that can result for me to do continue playing . there were also times that i get addicted playing because i enjoy the game and i dont mind if i won or loose because what important for me is the enterntainment .

So that it . my addiction is depends on the game and on my mood

Playing like this sometimes, and it makes me more addict when I tried to be more happy and have fun. Gambling is a good source of happiness if you treat it correctly, but if there’s big money on the table I think its more of a greed and not the entertainment anymore. But losing money triggers gambler to do everything to get that money back, but still they ended up broke.

"Sometimes winning isnt good at all". This is the phrase i always got in my mind whenever i saw someone or read something that pertains to gambling addiction. I see that people are so greedy and do anything to win. My observation is that, people experience winning ofcourse in gambling so they take many chances and risk bets to win again. Either the win rate is just 2 to 3 times per 15 bets, they are still getting hooked on it. Winning even once triggers addiction because people are greedy in nature. There are just people who can control themselves and there are not.

Most likely the people who do able to feel this way are those people who just recently start up on gambling.Depending on what kind of person you are if you are greedy too much or just only slight depending on chances. Winning can really trigger addiction but if you are sensible enough then it wont really easily penetrate you.So this issue would always vary with strong self control. If you cant handle such thrill then better to stop before anything would gets worst.

That's chasing and this is very dangerous. You always keep thinking that you gonna win the next bet and that will recover your lose but in reality it happens very rare.

When you keep losing then it becomes stress. It's no more entertainment.

No one can predict who will develop an addiction to gambling and it can happen to anyone, And right now that we had internet gamblings are just one click away I really think that many in this generations are triggered this way with online gambling we can easily determine their cause, And if someone has gambling addiction we know that it is not an easy task to recover from it, It needs a one day at the time to help them recover, It is notoriously hard to subdue and control.

A key ingredient of gambling addiction is emotion, This way gamblers tend to make it as a coping mechanism to escape from their discomfort or problem,

It is really funny when I think about the bets and wages that I've made has more loss in it than the wins and I am still hooked on gambling, well it is better than being addicted like me in the past when I can't really control myself. It is not only greediness but the pleasure of winning is also great.

Have you ever heard about beginner's luck ? That must be a actual trigger for gambling addictions. Uncontrolled gamblers end up in addictions when they believe into repeating their luck moments. Lack of self control and mot aware of dangers of gambling are other supportive factors which are leading to addictions.

What about the gamblers who are losing ? They are also having equal chances to get addicted. It means winning or losing will not influence your addictions but these are the reasons why gamblers are sticking with gambling. A winner wants to give it another try whereas a loser wants to recover his bet money. Both lose control on their emotions and becoming greedy or aggressive with respective cases and then sticking with gambling and finally getting suffered by addictions.

This kind of situation boost our emotions, and as the excitement increase expect the level of your game will increase too unti you become more greedy. Gambling addiction is very common for those who gamble everyday, either you make big profit or you lose, as long as you are playing everyday for me you’re already an addict gambler.

Psychology tells us that there are two kinds of addiction. One is called substance/chemical addiction which is addiction to nicotine, alcohol, drugs, sugar-dense foods and beverages etc. Another is process addiction, which is also called behavioral addiction, which is a form of addiction that involves a compulsion to engage in a rewarding behavior like gambling, watching porn, playing video games, shopping etc. Chemical addiction is hard to overcome because when you stop taking a substance which alters your metabolism in a pleasurable way, you start feeling severe symptoms of withdrawal, literally physically. Behavioral addiction is a psychological one, which can be discontinued without any withdrawal symptoms, and since gambling is classified as such, I don't buy the notion that there are people who "just can't control themselves" regarding gambling. Yes, psychological addiction can be hard to overcome too, but it's pretty much possible, and there are no excuses for those who are not even trying.

You have already answered the question in the thread. There is only one thing that triggers gambling addiction is "Greed". There is nothing else that can justify the addiction to gambling. If a person tests winning at least once, it triggers more greed into his mind and he/she tries to test that winning again without thinking about the losses he/she is making.

At the first instance, gambling should be taken as an way of entertainment and nothing else. If someone is taking it as a method of money making, he is getting it all wrong from the beginning itself.

They actually did a interesting study on this a few years ago.

You are more likely to get addicted to gambling when you realize a big win early in your gambling days. This is what generally gives you false hope and you always think you can win again and you become addicted.

Most think that getting addicted is when you get a big win, however its not always the case. Some with big wins usually suffered many loses in their early gambling days that they just take their winnings and quit. However for those that were winners early in their career they usually bet more later on to "break-even" and suffer huge losses which leads to addiction.

Do you have that study by any chance? I'm interested in checking what the objectives and significance of the study are because I might get something there, for research. I think people who are addicted just need to know what to do when gambling, like having a plan or usually acceptance is a great thing.

Anyway, having false hope is just lying to your face. I just thought of hope, is hope always false until it comes true?

So, my conclusion is that winning is not just the cause, people needs to socialise, people get into gambling because they don't have anything else to entertain them.

Yup! That can be considered one of the factors why others lead to gambling addiction. The same scenario can be applied to computer addiction to, youth nowadays are getting more exposed to the advanced technology (PS4, Xbox, NintendoSwitch etc) and they are now more willing to engage in digiral world instead of socializing with their fellow children. On the other side, some gamblers became obsessed to gambling because they're body always look for the hype, thrill and excitement that they cannot found in other forms of entertainment, just only in casinos or online betting sites in some cases.

That's the sad reality for the people who have whatever form of addiction — they're hooked in up to the point that even themselves can't now find the way going back.
