Topic: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? - page 10. (Read 1797 times)

In my opinion, a lot of gamblers become addicted to in-house gambling since, aside from being simply accessible, you can find a match that you are capable of playing there.

In my country, in-house gambling is highly common because it can be done in any place as long as it's a secluded area or you may decide where you feel comfortable enough to gamble. One of our traditional games specifically card games that you can find anywhere in the house is card games like poker, tong-its, etc. Especially if someone has passed away and before their burial, there is a vigil where people are supposed to stay wide awake and play card games to keep themselves from getting bored or falling asleep.

Returning to the topic, there are a lot of things that happen when gamblers can partake in in-house gaming, particularly if they are hanging out with friends or coworkers and simply want to have a good time. Of course, the atmosphere surrounding you and the opportunity to socialize with a variety of people who may become partners in the game would entice you to gamble internally.

I can't say specifically on the kind of gambling sports or games that has more addicts, people are the ones thst got addicted to gambling on different kinds of games or sports, addiction is not embedded in any of them but people make the decision of getting addicted from how the have mutual feelings on gambling and how they were being able to conduct themselves into living a disciplined lifestyle while gambling.

Well I also see the same part here, now the times are very developed and everything is sophisticated, and of course for problems in the world of gambling as you say that people no longer need to go to a physical casino which of course requires the intention to go and also requires travel costs such as fuel and take the right time in the midst of their busy activities, with the development of increasingly modern times it is clear that everything is easier to do, not only online-based casinos but also several other things such as platforms that make it easier for people to shop easily and quickly have sprung up and we are familiar with it.

Of course this situation is the cause of more gamblers entering and being trapped in the addiction zone because they can come whenever they want by just using the gadget they have which is of course connected to the internet network, running out of budget is not a problem because they have plenty of time to go to the ATM machine to deposit the fiat money they have, of course this freedom and convenience is what I think is the main cause of their addiction, but on the other hand not entirely too, because obviously for some people who still have the right point of view about gambling then I think they will not be that easy to get stuck in the addiction cycle, so maybe with all the conveniences that exist in online casinos it is only an indication and possibility for some people to enter the addiction zone.

I've felt that and you're right that it depends of what kind of game we are into.

Slots and dice are addictive and the same goes with plinko. Too many games to say on where can we get addicted but when we're used to repetitive actions as you've said.

It's giving the addicting vibes that you want to gamble with it again but if you're the gambler that easily get bored, then you'll hardly get addicted even if you do something again and again.

There are different categories of gambling but the most addicting of a gambler is playing in casinos. Casino is a very attractive gambling and the more casino a gambler plays the more casino they want to play. People lose the most amount of money in casinos and playing in these casinos attracts many people to gambling. Playing casino usually does not require much knowledge about gambling and anyone can play casino easily and no casino gambling skills are required it is totally up to one's own luck. Depending on one's luck, many people bet with a small amount of money and earn a lot of money, but when he bets with a large amount of money, he loses all his money in an instant. There are many people who have become destitute by playing casinos.

The physical casinos or the land casinos don't have much of addicts, and the limitations are there to make all gambler's actions more senior and moderated than the online casino. A gambler below 18 cannot be allowed to participate in such casinos. Gamblers there may also play with friends and be discouraged not to be playing more than they can afford. Playing slots in the physical casino is also fun, and reduces the rate of addiction compared to online casinos. I noticed that the physical casino despite being filled with all kinds of people, consists of gamblers who tend to help each other, especially in slot games. A player in the next machine may advise another player not to take some predictions. Even though his new friend's advice isn't correct, the discussion helps the gambler to always have a rethink and ask questions before making predictions he's not sure about.

Unlike the online casino, where the gambler online has his gadget as a companion, and won't have anybody to advise him on a specific decision, he'd be playing according to what he feels is right. Thereby risking his chances of controlling himself when wagering too much or spending a long time playing games, exhausted; energetically and financially. While these two types of casinos have their fair share of addicts, it's safe to say that online casinos produce high rates of addicts around society. But some games in the online casino scheme like football or poker can be minimal in getting a gambler addicted like the slot game would, due to the fast outcome of results. And players would want to make quick money. Any game that involves other people like a two or three-man game, doesn't make people addicts. However, anybody can get addicted regardless of the kind of game they play, but to some extent, some criteria like having a second body who advises the player can help in controlling the player's level of making mistakes.

And in reality, those who are often addicted to gambling are from the lower middle class, not the rich. Why is that.? because most of them (lower middle class) think that gambling is not about fun, but about profit. They consider that gambling is a place to change their fate financially. However, when talking about the amount of money, of course a wealthy gambler spends more money than the lower middle class. but that's not what we're talking about.

And speaking of the lower middle class, they very rarely have to carry out gambling activities in conventional casinos, but most of them gamble online or together with their friends. Because if they understand very well, if they go to a conventional casino then they have to bring quite a lot of money. And what's more, when we talk about good money management, most people who are in the lower middle class, they can't manage their finances well.
Meanwhile, people who are rich enough have the ability to do that.

SLOT addiction is quite dangerous, because in this type of gambling almost nothing depends on the person himself. The result is completely determined by the program, the algorithm of which owner can rebuild at any time. Less dangerous are sports betting - here at least something depends on statistics and the person himself

In that case, it varies from individual to individual and what kind of game they are into. Games like slots and dice can be addictive but it is also possible to get bored after a while cause its just the repetition of the same thing over and over again which means I am coming to my point, gambling is addictive and there is no scale to one weigh over the other.

Yes that's right, I also think that way, where with the development of technology today online gambling is everywhere because gambling companies know that at this time many people are not far from their gadgets which are always important every day, and this makes it easy for them to get to know online gambling because there are also many advertisements posted via the internet and obviously at this time many people whose lives must be fully related to the internet, because the internet has also become a necessity for everyone's life today so 99% can be said that at this time people must have a gadget.
They are able to do this with the help of the internet, but they don't need to go to the casino to do gambling because with online gambling when they can do it, also at this time many people are lazy to do things that seem complicated, so they want practical things. The existence of online gambling today may have a higher percentage value than physical casinos.

The other side of the negative impact is also very large because gambling easily attracts many people to gamble, this is profitable for gambling companies but not profitable for society, because most of the current gamblers who are addicted to gambling are young people, where they have unstable thinking because of that they are easily carried away, and this is most of them who were originally for just trying to become addicted to gambling, anyone can do online gambling because there is no age limit to do it and there are no provisions regarding men or women, all groups can do it as long as they have things related to online gambling. this needs to be avoided because otherwise there will be many young people who become addicted to gambling, not only harming themselves but harming others. with the temptation that exists in gambling, it makes it easy for young people to be attracted to online gambling. This needs to be avoided because otherwise there will be many young people who become addicted to gambling, not only harming themselves but can harm others. with the temptation that exists in gambling, young people are easily attracted to online gambling, I am sure that everywhere there are groups of young people, surely among them know about online gambling, which is currently busy in the community.

I don't really know what kind of gambling there are a lot of addicts today but certainly what I can see now is that everything depends on the perspective and preferences of the addicts and every game must have its own addicts in this case even though there are many and some are only a few but all forms of games in gambling must all have addicts in it.
Currently, maybe for some countries in the absence of land-based casinos, online gambling, especially in slots, has a lot of enthusiasts and that is proven today in the country I live in because most people will definitely be in the slots even though there are some of them in the lottery.

But on the other hand, for those who have a land-based casino and it has been certified by their government, there must be a lot of gambling enthusiasts there because the satisfaction of being online and land-based casinos is different so that surely not a few of them like it and can even be categorized as addicts.

For offline casinos, of course, there will be an age limit to be able to access and play there. but as you said, in online casinos, everyone can play, including young people. and it's very easy to do.
I don't pay attention to other types of games, but around me, there are lots of people who access slot games very easily. and there are so many young people playing slots that parents think they are playing games with their friends.
I don't know where the children get the capital to play. But that all shows, all gambling games can be accessed anywhere and anytime and by anyone. and that increases the cases of addiction that will occur.

the addiction is really dependent on the person. so the degree of addiction varies from one person to another. and to which particular game? that also depends on the person. just like many vices, a person can get addicted to it with varying reasons.

it also relies on what background they have grown into, their surroundings, their companions/colleagues, their interests, of course, their financial capability. hence, the reason behind any addiction is not a concrete one. every case is a unique one. this is why it is interesting to hear or read stories of people. you can get a lot of insights from their experiences.

Soccer is very addicting to some gamblers, especially the live matches.

I do not know if we can consider virtual matches as sport betting but I can see people in my street using it very well to gamble. As some people like the virtual matches, going to betting agents, that means there are some people that will also like to play it online. Virtual matches only take 30 seconds or less to the next round and that can make it addicting.

But with what I have heard and read before, gamblers are more addicted to slots.

I can only base it on my observation and its online casinos, the fact that it's a multi-billion dollar industry, and the fact that they can sponsor big sporting events worldwide I can safely say that online gambling has the most number of players and sad to say, gambling addicts.

Compared to other gambling platforms, online casinos can be played anywhere anytime have a huge number of games, can be played even with a small amount, and there is no discrimination, once you learn how to play online you'll easily get hooked because the internet is everywhere and everyone is online.
This is the reason why there is a new casino launched almost weekly and we have hundreds of online casinos and counting, online casinos attract gamblers more than any other platforms.

In these days where online gambling is available and keeps growing, more people get addicted to it rather than the usual casino. Indeed, the new generations have been comfortable playing at home, and aside from that, the easy accessibility which you don't need to travel anymore. But I see the consequences are huge knowing that even young age are already gambling. More and more gamblers become addicted as they continue knowing that they can play anytime and anywhere as long as they internet. Until this was not regulated by the government, many people couldn't control its temptation because some influencers were also advertising them.

You have a very good observation and I'm in total agreement with you. Traditional casinos have more addicts. Growing up, it was a tradition in my neighborhood to see people in casino house all day. There are people that spend more than90% of their time in casinos which run 24hours service here. Furthermore, the proliferation of online casinos and the improvements and addition of more games even makes it worse now than before. So the chances of being addicted to casinos just got bigger with online casinos that someone can engage in from the comfort of his home.

The numerous rewards is one incentives that keeps people actively engaged in online casinos. Most of the outstanding wins in gambling comes from casinos like slots. That a long is enough motivation for people to stay put to them until their lucky day.

It depends on the gambler himself because people have different preferences after all. There are gamblers who are more into traditional games which are held inside a physical casino establishment such as poker because it gives them the freedom to interact personally with other gamblers. With that, some people are easily hooked up and entertained. Meanwhile, there are people who are into modern games such as those games in casino websites or applications. For instance, slot or roulette games that are luck based games online. Those who don't like complexity become more addicted in easy and convenient games such as these. Although it really varies because we have different likings and people have different spending habits and time allotment for it.

From what I have observed so far in gambling people are attracted more to the simpler mechanics of the game which they think they can easily win or profit. Let's say slots, you would just need to pull the lever or push the button and wait to win, plus the fact that you can play slots on your own without any other player involved. The easier the gambling game, the easier the people to bet on anything you could say that to any type of gambling but still, they differ on the mechanics and the rules. Just imagine if you are playing poker games, you could still have to think of techniques and methods for you to win so people tend to be tired of thinking all the time, they could even quit by just simply having a wrong call in a round.

IMO, there is no need to differentiate too much about the form of gambling, but social trends will partly reflect how gamblers play. At this time, internet technology has developed, making it easy to gamble on multiple platforms as a simplified option, but I'm not completely sure because I myself sometimes still like to bet in offline casinos because of the feeling of having fun with the space there.

Even though I don't consider myself a gambling addict, the act of playing helps me realize that gambling addiction is really very scary. My family also has a lot of gamblers who have to pay debt, so I'm also aware of it be yourself don't do that. And I am also aware that this field brings joy, not an opportunity to make money. Indeed, after many years of witnessing many changes in the Internet development service system, today there are many organizational methods of gambling which I must admit they are adapting so well.
