Topic: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? - page 7. (Read 1797 times)

It's hard to tell which has more problematic gamblers, but since online gambling has become popular most people have switched to it because of convenience. Especially during the pandemic, most traditional casinos had ceased their operation, online gamblers had increased. It's so accessible that even age restrictions in gambling can easily be by passed by minors which is more difficult or even impossible to do in traditional casinos. Imagine being able to have 24/7 unlimited access in casino games at the convenience of your own home.

I think almost all types of gambling have gambling addicts. Among them, slot games have the highest number of gambling addicts. Slots are the game where people are most attracted and become most greedy.  Being more greedy and more attracted people become more addicted to playing slots.  Moreover, people do not get addicted to gambling too much with sports sites. This is because most people bet on sports as a form of entertainment.

You can be addicted to any of the gambling you mentioned here OP, but house gambling is the most easiest way to be addicted in gambling because nobody is there to advise you to reduce the way you use to gamble like the way some gamblers in the gambling center will work up unto you and give you some advise that will make you to give some gap not to gamble at the moment not to be addicted to gambling and, it has helped many people to recover from their losses in the gambling center.

There are some gamblers they got addicted through their local base gambling because they don't take advise from other people and once their money got finished, then they will know that they are addicted to gambling and it will be difficult for such person to stop gambling no matter the losses he or she has experienced.

a little disagree if you compare slot games, card games and sports betting.
all of this is just about the mindset of a gambler and I often say this if a gambler is always looking for profits, always chasing losses, always chasing losses that is an early sign of addiction and they will not care where they can chase what they want whether in slot games or card games even in sports betting a gambler can become addicted.

addiction is a state of mind that is influenced by excessive dopamine and a gambler who has excessive dopamine feels the sensation of excessive pleasure or excessive emotions because of the urge to want to win big, of course he will very easily become more addicted and no matter what type of game they will still become addicted. addict and about this it's not just me saying but most of the people on this forum are saying the same thing here or in other threads. so you can't measure or compare each type of game.

The people who use these gambling sites are puppeteers.  Just put, it's taking advantage of someone. They go after people who are weak, like people who are glued to their computers and need money quickly. You are drawn in by the promise of quick money. How much does it cost? Bankruptcy, drug abuse, and pain. Young people who don't have jobs keep falling down this rabbit hole because they think the next bet will be their big break

Let's be honest about bettors who are "successful." It's a trick to get more people to join. Win, but how much will it cost? For every win, they hide hundreds of silent losses, stories of pain and damage. A system that was set up to work in favor of the sites makes money off of other people's hopes and fears. We need to wake up and see that this is a dangerous game where real people's lives and jobs are at risk. We need to stop making gambling look good and show the terrible truth behind the flash

It is possible that people who gamble their slots do so on the basis of requests from gambling companies to introduce their sites, the purpose of which is to attract the interest of many people, of course, so that they can make a profit too, because with the current development of technology that makes everything easy to do, also with gambling that is now online, this makes many people able to access online gambling, because at this time everyone cannot be far from cellphones and the internet whether they are already working or still unemployed, they are fully tied to cellphones and the internet throughout the day, of course, like this they will see advertisements or maybe people who are gambling live streaming, With the current difficult work also makes them interested in gambling because they have the thought of being able to get a lot of money by gambling, and of course this is not true,  the number of young people now gambling makes them financially difficult, especially with young people who are not working but they like to gamble of course this is a problem that must be addressed, They don't think gambling can give them a lot of money, because those who gamble live streaming only advertise their gambling sites, they easily get a win because there are clear factors, so they easily get a win to make everyone believe that the gambling site really guarantees an easy win.

that's what makes them addicted to gambling, where they have lost but they don't stop, instead they keep gambling still hoping to get the win they will achieve and also with the phrase "maybe one more bet" they can do that over and over again , but they cannot realize that what they are doing is the biggest mistake, and if they are like that then disaster will come, where they will experience huge losses financially. The slot gambling they play makes them believe they can get a lot of money just by gambling, but they are not aware that the chance of losing is greater than the chance of winning. also with the host who will always win every time they bet, they are blind to this so they can deposit a lot of money for a win that is said to be promising, there are also gamblers who from the start they get a win and with that win it makes them gamble continuously continuously because winning convinces them that gambling is very easy to get profitable wins, but all that turns around, where winnings that are difficult to get become a reality that they have to accept, sometimes those who lose in gambling cannot accept it well. well, and makes them continue to gamble by wanting to recover the losses that have occurred. and this is all because online slot gambling is the most popular with everyone at the moment. because they can easily recognize it and it is also easy to access, everyone can do it if they understand every step that must be taken.

Yeah, I agree, basically we can say that Sports betting have the most number of users especially on elite leagues like NBA, Football leagues across the globe, but we can put a note where number of people in that type of gambling does not determine the highest number of gamble addicts. It is possible, highly possible but we can't find data on that one.

For me repeating games like slots and card games are highly addictive as well because the money is just flowing and circling back, you win then lose, then tomorrow you come back and win again and it repeats and I think that's more addictive than betting on sports since sports are real people playing, there are only schedule on the play, but I can see that bets on sports betting is tremendously higher than usual gambling games.

Yes, in addition to its lively ambiance, casinos offer a large range of games and betting alternatives to suit your interests. It's almost like the atmosphere itself tempts you to play and have fun.  Because there is a lot of social interaction, like talking to other players or taking part in tournaments, you will never get bored easily. Aside from having fun in casinos you can also make friends and discuss gambling, it is an opportunity to share each other’s tactics of what field they are experts in.   Bonus points if they serve refreshments that can make you feel at ease.

But we must keep in mind that gambling establishments, like casinos, are designed to stimulate your curiosity and may promote compulsive gambling and risk-taking. It is therefore essential to place bets sensibly and pay attention to your surroundings. We can't predict when someone will trip you since gamblers reveal a wide range of different behaviors and attitudes of people.

In my country, lottery game has made a lot of gambling addicts most particularly those poor gamblers. We all know that the price at stake is highly exceptional that's why a lot of gamblers have developed passion and love for lottery game due to their greed to win from lottery gambling. Even myself I fall on it before but seeing a lot of losses outnumbered my profits, I realized that the chance to win is very slim so I have to control myself not to get addicted with it.

Yes, since slot games are popular many people generally prefer them when streaming. Although these people seem to lose money when they play slots they actually don't lose money in gambling because the gambling service they usually use sponsors them. In addition to the money they earn from their streams, generally, people with high subscribers are sponsored by the gambling service they use so they are actually loss-oriented and prefer to play slots with big bets because the big wins they make in this way can cause people watching the steams to play slots.

Such gambling addicts usually become addicted to gambling without realizing it as they think that they can regain the money they lost by playing several different gambling games without exception. Unfortunately, in such a situation they may face some financial difficulties as they usually lose more money. Especially in such cases, as the risk threshold increases in general these people lose more money and because they constantly think that they can regain these losses by gambling, they lose their awareness and lose more money in gambling.

And when we prefer gambling at home compared to other places, we should immediately stop this activity. It's better if we play outside or in a casino. Why is that, because it is feared that when we gamble too often at home, apart from causing addiction, there are concerns that the gambling activities we do become a spectacle that is not good for the family, especially for our own children. It is feared that the gambling activities we do will become a motivation for our children to do the same thing as their father, namely gambling.


Correctly! Gambling environments, especially in casinos, are often designed in such a way as to create an attractive and tempting atmosphere. Bright lights, loud sounds, and flashy colors can affect a person's brain, making him trapped in an exciting atmosphere. All of these elements can make it difficult for people to stop even if they already feel like stopping. Moreover, associations with fun and rewards can make people forget the risks and negative consequences of gambling. As a result, someone can become complacent and continue gambling without realizing the negative impacts that may arise.

Definitely sports betting and possibly E-sports as there's actually a huge number of tournaments and leagues and currently some gambling sites covered all of them and you can easily access using mobile phone, which anyone can easily be addicted this days. We don't have an actual data of course and this is only my assumptions but I think I am right, especially some of the slots providers do have strict a restriction rather than sports betting. Or maybe the other way around?

Slot games are more like Esports games. Games with immediate results have the most possibility of getting players addicted. A slot player can be carried away by quick results and won't mind the reduction of his deposited money, due to losses, and enjoy the fun of playing slots as it requires no prior skill to participate in the game. Sometimes I couldn't go a day without playing slot games with my girlfriend. The winning creeps in from time to time, but we lose out both time and money, due to the fast return of results. The football game doesn't get people easily addicted to gambling, because of the time they'll have to wait for the game to be over. But one thing is certain about sports gambling, it leads to anxiety faster than slot games. When watching soccer with a gambler, his modes and emotions are so much attached to the match, that he'll be involuntarily unhappy if a player fails to pass a ball correctly or score a goal. Such experiences are not conducive to the health of the gambler, and even if he doesn't gamble all the time like a slot gambler, he could get addicted, as a result of the previous game.

One other mistake of sports gamblers is the lack of attention to the history of a team, most of them gamble for the money and are less concerned about the formations of the team they're staking money on their match. Hence the gamblers, mostly low rollers, end up betting on games they won't watch. Regardless of the anxiety of watching the games they booked, losing consistently also exposes the gambler to being addicted. That means they'll have to gamble every weekend or even weekdays for teams or leagues they don't know anything about their origin or history. Slots can be controlled, as the results happen fast, but sports betting only gets worse coupled with the anger of losing a match. Football has this natural passion in both players and spectators that sometimes I see people cry over a football match. It's a game that connects to the brain even without gambling on it, hence the gambler will feel double pains if he loses the match and his money at the same time.

Because people prefer games where they can easily get quick wins and quick riches, so that is the most logical reason why casinos are always preferred because everyone likes something that is fast, including quickly becoming poor and also quickly going bankrupt, but in general Personally, I prefer sports betting games because they require accurate analysis and information before betting, it is very interesting and there is no rush to bet just because of the odds.

I agree with you that online gambling is very much in demand, even older people have started to switch to online casinos and they are starting to learn to use their cellphones to gamble compared to playing gambling in offline casinos, but as technology advances, everything has to keep up with the times, that's why casinos online is very popular now both young and old everyone can play the game on their cellphone.

In my opinion, all types of gambling can cause addiction if they cannot control themselves. For me, online casinos and land-based casinos have the same chance of making someone an addict, whether it's poker, lottery, dice, blackjack, slots, sports betting, etc., all of which can cause addiction. However, it seems that the most dominant slot, apart from being an easy game, slots also rely on luck, causing gamblers to become addicted to the results they will get from each round, therefore, as gamblers, we must be able to control ourselves when playing slots, even though they are interesting and there are many types, but that's it makes us more addicted.

Apart from that, we cannot underestimate other types of gambling games because other gambling games can also cause addiction, such as sports betting, where there are matches every week. For those who like sports betting, they will continue to place bets until they don't realize they are addicted, we have to be careful. Be careful with gambling games so you don't fall into addiction.

I actually do not know about others, but for me and based on my my locality, I think betting is one gambling game that most people are very addicted in, I am not actually generalizing this though, because I believe that things could be very different in some other parts of the world, but then, in this part of the world where I currently live in, there are very many betting addicts, and this I believe is due to the fact that there are not a lot of physical full-fledged gambling casinos here, but there are actually a lot of betting agents and shops.

People over here don't care much about slot games, casino games or whatever type of other games there be available to gamblers, it's all about betting for almost everyone, I on my own have never really come across a gambler here whom I can say for sure is into slot of casino games, even every one of my friends are all into betting, so for me, I think sports betting is where most gambling addicts are, based on where I currently live.

What you point out is correct. Most of the games that entertain gamblers over and over again are usually in the category of slot games, because there are many game choices in slot games that are relatively easy to win.

Even though I often play slot games, when you get lucky, you will be able to multiply the amount of your bet a lot. This has happened to me several times. Although I don't always hope to win gambling, it's my second happiness because I usually just play for fun. Although sometimes I take home gambling winnings,.

I think it's not only quite tempting but I think the slot game is very tempting, lately many gamblers have ended up addicted to this gambling compared to other types of gambling, none other than because as you said that first a lot of things look tempting when you are in a gaming session and secondly the promotions carried out by online casinos or slots are unmitigated, They have influencers in almost every social media where many people spend their leisure time playing social media, and of course with such a situation it is clearly not strange if we see many who are addicted to this type of gambling.

On the other hand, it does not know age at all, because this type of gambling is online, indirectly the ease of access and freedom in terms of playing time is one of the advantages they have compared to having to go to several physical casinos which certainly requires enough time to go home and go. In the event that you're looking for an online casino, you'll want to check out the online casino's website to see if there's anything you can do to make sure that you're getting the most out of it.

I think that an in-house gambling is the same as casino gambling. And then under them, there are also one-on-one gambling or also known as PVP. You should include sports betting too, as this is also another type of gambling. In your last sentence, I see that you are defining in-house gambling like a physical gambling, and you think more people are addicted on it, because maybe you are also spending most of your time there?

But I in our generation right now, almost all can say that online gambling is now more in-demand because it provides comfort and other benefits. But if we are talking about the games (e.g sports, or casino games) I think there are more people who are addicted to casino games, since it's much easier and faster to play.

This is not far-fetched, the closer you are to gambling unchecked, the more you gamble. This is why the online gambling platform has it, people own their gadgets and have free and easy access to their gambling platforms. What do you expect? They can deposit money through their bank apps or credit cards or cryptocurrency and other means as they like as well, so there is nothing restricting them that can discourage them from buying more time. So, if gambling is their hobby, they get to play in any little free time they get, this is where it starts and it could become so bad if not checked. This is not entirely bad if the person is such that has his mind and is responsible in his gambling activities.

But we can't all control our emotions, which makes it seem bad. Above all, it is the fault of the person, and not casinos or the fact that online gambling platforms are closer to him, we should all learn how to control ourselves and moderate our activities and note that we can't expect to have the same experience as that of the physical casinos. We need to be careful so that our mind doesn't master it on a weak note just because we are close to it.
