There is no other reason than because they are already trapped in a cycle of addiction so that these people continue to gamble even though they are financially unable to continue funding their gambling activities even though they do not have jobs, and regarding your question about where they get the money to fund their gambling activities, actually this problem is not really known, but of course there is a big possibility for them to try to take advantage of every opportunity such as committing crimes such as stealing or robbing money or goods and selling them to fund their gambling activities, the point is like a fact that when a gambler is addicted, they will be desperate to do anything just to get money to fund their gambling habits.

The last one I think changing games cannot be used as an effective way to generate victory, sometimes even though you have tried changing games several times but still lose, it happens and I have experienced it until all my capital is gone, the point is that winning in casino games really depends on how lucky you are at that time, not depending on one way or another.

People know what they want, some have been stressed up by the work load of the day and will want to ease the stress by having fun gambling, while some will even say that its another way of exercising the mind and brain during leisure hour, to many gamblers, they have made it a choice to gamble regardless of whether they are winning or loosing, because they are not after money, but fun in gambling.

Hope is very important as a gambler and we need to be always making sure that we keep trying everytime instead of complaining about games that do not yield a good outcome. Gambling is not supposed to be a game of play. We need to be serious with it strategizing and making sure that we are using a solid and effective strategy that will yield profits with time. There are time when we could noticed that we are not getting profits and the best time to do is relax and look for a better game to bet on that will be profitable.
If I say here something about the op title then I have to say that there will be two answers of the tile question and one is some peoples are taking gambling as an entertainment purpose and they gambling with that amount what they can afford to loose and on the other hand some of gambler are make their gambling continue even then they are having frequently losses. Here I will say that they play gambling for the addiction and addiction are come her from the greediness.
So here those have strategies and those don't even plan strategies for gambling both peoples are included. And at the last what I want to  say that even we make such amount that we can afford to loose some times we should also have break from the gambling for not being addicted on gambling.

If one gamble for fun, winning or loses can never stop them to gamble. Even in most cases, people will still want to gamble even after great win. Just like the rich work more to make more, same things happens to gamblers. They will always believe more win are still coming their way. So they hardly quit after great win.
If they are just having fun, it means they are only channeling their hobby into gambling, and if they lose their money there it is not too much of a problem because they already know that there are far more losses than wins in each round of the game. Yes, that is human nature (greed) to want to get more than they had previously gotten at that time. It's best to use a strategy of not being too greedy in playing and controlling your emotions in playing to continue playing. If we can control our emotions well, of course we can minimize losses much less than if we continued playing.

Some people play for the purpose of having fun while some play to make profit, then are also those that are addicted to it. Most people gamble continuously after losing multiple times is because they try to recover their losses. Doing this can cause an uncrontallable addiction to gambling that can be very disastrous. There are also a lot of people that gamble continuously after losing because they keep hoping that they might win big from it. My advice to people under any of these categories is to always give gambling a break after losing, instead of trying over and over again.
Trying to win back what you've lost is the first trap of gambling addiction. Much depends on the psychology of the player himself. If he is weak-willed, then with a greater degree of probability he will try to win back without thinking about the consequences and will fall under the influence of gambling addiction and will lose and lose instead of stopping and taking a break so as not to make more mistakes.

You are right, many gamblers that gamble continuously are addicted to gambling because either they chase their losses or have already made up their mind that gamble can provide good fortune for them in future. However, one of the reason why they have such believe is because they might have someone that was lucky enough to win big amount from gamble.
A major problem is that when someone wins big in gambling, he happily shares it with everyone, which is why we often hear stories of gamblers winning. And that's why new gamblers are constantly being created who keep gambling with the intention of winning something big even though they keep losing. And after a long period of gambling they become addicted here. And at some point they suffer huge financial losses. Yet they neither blame gambling nor blame themselves. They then do not hesitate to gamble by borrowing or selling any of their valuable assets. This is the deep addiction to gambling

I always hear stories of friends who always lose playing online gambling. I don't know what his purpose to tell his story to me. even it's clear, his story makes him look stupid.

Besides that, in another place, Many young people around to me still play slot gambling even don't have a job and always lose. I wonder where they get the money for deposits? and why they repeat that?. I don't know what the reason reason that doesn't bother them, they should have given up, and changed the game that makes them profitable. if I always lose in the game, I will change the type of game, example If I always lose on a slot, I will change the type of game like sports betting until my capital is back and try the luck again to the slot.
In my opinion, one of the reasons they continue to gamble even though they often lose is because the chance of winning is unreasonable. The motivation to want to get rich easily makes them continue to try to get money in any way in order to pursue opportunities to win in gambling games. The opportunity to win with a small bet can earn a very large amount of money, making them even more addicted and making it difficult to stop the habit.

They only seek and will continue to pursue victory without caring about defeat, that is the reason why they continue to gamble even though they always lose. Their curiosity and the lure of the opportunity to win large amounts of money makes them unable to control themselves, they will do anything to pursue victory, as long as their goal is not achieved they find it very difficult to give up.


Among many answers in this topic lately, this one makes most sense to me. People wouldn't continue gambling if it was impossible to win big. The problem is that the probability is extremely low, and to get one lucky winner there must be many losers, as in every zero sum game. On the other hand, I guess that the little bets also make them lose track of what they have spent, and that's why it is so easy to let themselves go if they don't set a limit on beforehand.

As you said, there is definitely a mix between curiosity and greed which makes them continue gambling. And the bravado of the lucky winners that we often see doesn't help either (as they did something epic, when in fact they just had unusual luck).

This subject is very common here, but most people are getting it late, just after realizing the significant amount of money they have lost and even worse when they start asking for loans and having much debts. It’s surprising how many continue gambling on slots, losing repeatedly even without a job or an income. I even wonder sometimes where they get the money for deposits and why they don't change their activity such as investing in something better. If I kept losing like that, I would switch to something else like at least sports betting with much analysis and right decisions. It’s about knowing when to switch strategies and not sticking to something that clearly isn’t working. The fact that they don’t change or give up even after consistent losses is also something hard to understand, probably their mindset .

I believe that adjusting these games to something more profitable should be the only logical move for them, but many seem to ignore having more options entirely.

I think that there can be different reasons why people who gambles and loses repeatedly still continues to gamble. One of the reasons could be boredom, when a gambler don't have anything better to do, they will just go back to gambling, and it doesn't matter much whether they win or lose. Others could be chasing loses, when they've lost so much money in gambling, they'll be believing that they will recover all their loses in the next couple of gambling. Then we have the addicts, some don't even know why they gamble anymore, it becomes something that they must do to have peace of mind, without which they can remain nervous all day, they can sale their belongings or borrow money, just to satisfy the urge of gambling. It's important to be disciplined and take breaks from gambling when the gambler repeatedly loses.

Pleasure is what some gamblers derive from gambling, and because they have a gamble budget, if they are losing will not mean that they should quit when their budget for the day has not being exhausted. Majority of gamblers that are gambling while losing is because they are chasing their losses and think that they can recover it. Unfortunately for these set of gambler, they run into more losses.

If you have self control, you will always know when to stop. If a disciplined gambler is losing and he is still gambling, it means that he can afford to lose more to gambling and not because he is chasing his losses. Sometimes we can get carried away with the fun, and decide to play an additional one or two games before stopping.
Yes, gambling would not be all that simple if you ended up with making some mistakes and we should probably consider the fact that we are going to end up with something that will take a long time if they lose it as well. I think the problem is that we are going to end up not much loss if we are under budget.

However, if we end up with something bigger then we are going to end up with a greater result as well, it should be the important case to realize that we should consider not going over budget. The thing is that we need to consider that as the most important part, keep it under budget. If we can do that then the results will come, maybe we will not make that much money or so, maybe we will lose, but as long as we lose less than we budgeted then we are going to be doing fine in the end.

Where is the fun in gambling if they are always losing? For any activity to be seen as a hobby, it should be something you enjoy doing. Do these gamblers enjoy losing? I do not think they are channeling their hobbies to gambling, but are only chasing losses. They are playing with the hope to win and they are not willing to give up any moment. When I first started gambling during my days in school, I used to think I was enjoying gambling but that was far from the truth. I never won any of my games and I never gave up. It took me a while to realise that I was only chasing losses and not really having fun but losing money the more.
People can actually use gambling as a hobby but not when you are always losing.

I,  as a gambler, also admit that I still become greedy at times, but I'm making sure that the money I use cannot affect my financial state, even if I lose it all. That's how I can manage my money and keep on gambling.
it is an inherent trait in humans. But if you are experienced in gambling, you may no longer be emotional to get bigger wins.
When you feel you have a bigger chance of winning, those who are experienced will know when they should stop. I know the situation will not be easy. but those who often lose certainly don't want to continue experiencing it.
You are given a chance to win and you should take it, but never increase the risk. gambling always makes people greedy. But remember, you know when you will come out with a win and feeling satisfied is something that is important.

I think gambling for fun will only be done by those who really understand how gambling really is, especially realizing that there is a very high risk that can happen at any time in the sense that it can lose their money in an instant. And as you said that most likely they will not consider losing as a problem because they already know that losing is something that they will definitely experience.

In the end, the key is always about control and limitation in terms of budget and time of involvement, because only that can keep us safe or avoid the bad possibilities experienced by gambling addicts which usually always lead them to more significant regrets at the end of the session.

One thing that I think about is why they still continue to play even though they always lose, and in my opinion it is most likely because they are typical irresponsible gamblers in the sense of coming back to catch up on the losses they have experienced to reach the recovery phase in the sense that they are typical gamblers who are unable to take responsibility for their own decisions and obviously in the end such an approach will lead them to the addiction phase which has many more significant adverse effects.
Probably these gamblers you mentioned were gambling with money they couldn't give themselves the luxury to lose, so they get desperate once the money is gone through gambling losses, and in a state of stress and anxiety, they don't measure their actions very well from that moment on, what leads them to do dumb things, like chasing losses, because they can't think on any better alternatives to fix the mess they have caused.

Of course it will only generate further prejudice to themselves and to the relationships they have with other people, because friends and family won't trust them anymore, as they have become degenerated gamblers. As you said, this category of gambler is irresponsible, but more than that, they are also pretty compulsive on their attitudes. These disfunctional traits can be worked out and balanced, though, aiming their personal organismic self-regulation.

There are some people like me who bet just for fun and if you lose it's not so bad, but then there are people who lose more than they should. These people sometimes try to win back their lost money and lose even more in the process. No one should make this mistake, everyone should try to play as responsibly as possible, then you'll have more fun when you bet!
Managing your mindset is actually important in order to be able to interpret the meaning of every loss from gambling, actually you only need self-awareness in admitting defeat in gambling, gambling is not a system or game that can make a lot of money, let alone make it a source of income, everyone must understand that that there is a risk that he will face when gambling, namely losing money and experiencing defeat, this requires self-awareness depending on how we choose to move forward or not.

But for gamblers who have the mindset of playing gambling for fun, usually they are much more prepared and aware of this, so experiencing defeat is a normal thing for them, of course they have limited their budget and also used money they are ready to lose. The point is, don't gamble if you are afraid of losing, let alone losing. money because gambling sites do not force people to play and look for luck, but people force themselves to gamble just to make money in it. that is definitely a wrong way of thinking and every gambler must gamble responsibly.

Well, greed cannot be suppressed; even a gambler with control and limits can sometimes feel the urge to gamble more and let greed take over, especially if that gambler is earning or winning. Instead of securing the profit, they will gamble more as they feel that they could win more and double their profit, which is a trap for me because as long as you keep on believing that you will win more, you will be sinking into your own grave and making your life more miserable. I think this nature cannot be eliminated for a gambler because that is human, and as long as they have money, they will keep on gambling. I,  as a gambler, also admit that I still become greedy at times, but I'm making sure that the money I use cannot affect my financial state, even if I lose it all. That's how I can manage my money and keep on gambling.
