Because gamblers always think about wanting to earn money easily, no need to sweat or dizzy. They fantasize about being rich in an instant with gambling.
That's the problem a lot of gambler has. It is already obvious that gambling is just more on luck and no assurance at all but still most of us wants to play because they want to win and gain profit from winning which is not good. They think that it is easier to earn money through gambling but the truth is, you can also lose money because of gambling.
Actually gambling doesn't only acquires luck but also skills and strategies. There is nothing wrong in gambling for profit because that is what the purpose of gambling aside of fun. In reality, it becomes addictive because we don't take it with moderation but we tend more likely to listen in our Gut feel that we will win instead of limiting ourseleves which can't be a assure chane of winning.

It is addicting by choice...if you do not want to have a regular job in life and focuses only to gamble and aiming to keep winning for a living, then that is so addicting, because the urge to stay gambling is on the mindset of a person so it is really a choice of a person, but if a person balances his activities in life, there is a time for work, a time for family and a leisure time to gamble, then it is not addicting at all...it could be balanced if you want to, so it’s by choice in life😃

Why is it so addictive?

Most gamblers are aware that gambling is not a good habit to keep. However, gambling is fun and addicting because it is a good way to relieve stress, to socialize with people, get to know friends, and earn some profit while playing different kinds of gambling games. Gambling addiction is bad and it is difficult to break. Gambling is risky, so a lot of people already lost a lot of money because of gambling addiction.
Although they are aware that gambling is bad but they are still doing the gambling. It is because they are addicted to gambling and they feel that their increasingly growing needs will feel better if they do gambling again because it is the only way to make a profit in a short time. The benefits of gambling are good enough that we can get to know a lot of people and get friends to relieve the stress of the burden of the mind but being sidetracked from those benefits cannot produce the best solution to solve their economies.

Why is it so addictive?

As my own studying in thesis when im in college,people  become addicting in gambling because they totally surrendered there entire time and self in this kind of games,because they want to get the winning prize or they want to payback to there losses,and the effect of this addicting will turn into debt and the severity of this endangered to yourself and turn to depression because it ruin your dignity and self respect.

Why is it so addictive?
The reason why many people are addicted in gambling is only a three reasons only. First is to win the second one is to gain more money and profit and the last is just to have fun or intertainment to make yourself happy. We are addicted in gambling by that three thing mentioned but you need to know tbat when you are gambled you must know you limmitations and not to be greedy because nithing too much thing is good. Just to gain our finance needed for daily life is better than lossing it all.

The feeling that today might be a day of luck and the fear of losing a chance that might come are two things that I think make people keep gambling and then got addicted.

I think gambling is so addicting because of the fun,excitement and thrill that it gives us when we are playing,
Not to mention that we are playing because of money sometimes when money is involve in a game it become more exciting ,
And also to think that we could earn a profit by just putting our money in it and playing is one of the reason why it is so addicting.

Why is it so addictive?

It is addictive because it is euphoric when you win. You get a good high feeling when you win some money. And you want to come back for more. That is how people get addicted, I think.
Yes, maybe that is an obvious reason why people get addicted in gambling aside from fun and excitement that gambling does to every gamblers because it is an instinct of every individual to be motivated if something good happen, like of that winning some bet in gambling so every time you think to gamble then that feelings and experience of winning will goes over your mind and start betting again thinking to win back.

Because gambling is a wonderful thing regardless of the motivations why a person gambles whether to earn money or just to have fun.
What do you mean with wonderful? It is not wonderful, you are a loser if you think that this is true.
I gamble just for fun, with some of my friends because it is FUNNY, but because it is wonderful. And making money is just something subjective.

gambling is so addicting because sometimes when you gamble you are enjoying your life and gamble is addicted also because when you loss this day you will come back tomorrow and you want to bring back to you the money you loss, and if you win, this can bring you happiness and comeback again because you are enjoying your winning. and that is the rotation why you are being addicted in gambling.

The only reason that made people addicted is because of money, if we can win money with few single click on the site that is addicting. People are only greedy with money thats why alot of people dont want to stop gambling but instead they will keep trying until they win alot money. It is hard to get out of gambling once you are addicted

But what i think gets many addicted has to do with greed  to make more money or the thought of trying to win back losses incurred in the past. This has led to many gamblers borrowing money and if luck elude them loose all and are ever in debt and wanting to get them back.

Our greed make us addicted in gambling. It is right, but when we play gambling then mostly we have no control ourself to stop the game and stop our lose, this situation become us greedy. Some time our lose is more than our winning and we play only to recover our lose and sometime we win the bet and we want to play again and win again. Both situation make us addicted in gambling. In my opinion, we should use our determination and then we will control on our greediness and then we can't addicted in gambling.

Gambling is addicting because people don't know how to do it. That is literally the only reason. If people knew what gambling was, on a deeper level, they would never get addicted.

It's all mathematics. Seriously. When you bet, your expected return is always negative. Therefore even when you win, you still lose. Because literally every bet is a loss mathematically speaking.

Not all the time though because there are times that you get lucky and you will win big but that is rare especially when you are playing in the game based on pure luck. I would rather play for fun and entertainment than for profit.

If you really want to make it as a profession and is aiming for profit, go to poker and sports betting - equip yourself with the right knowledge, skills, and attitude to win and potentially achieve your goal to profit.

If you want profit this is true you can always play poker or sport betting. This is good way with bigger chances of success off course.You need some skill ok but you dont need that much when you are playing casino games, there you need to follow several thing more and every casino game have own set of rules.

Most profitable gambling for me is play for fun several games in sport and wait for outcome, no always just few games on weekend.

if you feel its so addictive then you don't have control of yourself. i advice you not to gamble..
I guess because the greed inside of the OP is really big that it controlled the OP everytime he's gambling.

Gambling should remain a fun activity. I use to always get my deposit back and play with the earnings I got. This way, if I lose my earnings, I am back to day 1 but at least I have not lost any money.
The major difference though is that you are not betting in Euros or USD but in Bitcoin or Eth, and these currencies proved to rise (price wise) very fast lately, so 0.01 earned today could be much more tomorrow. That's why I recommend gambling with various crypto-currencies (for the anonymity too, of course).
I also have the same thinking in this regard. Playing gambling for fun purpose is the thing that can be entertained by the family of gambler also because it would not cause any harm to the life of gambler and the gambler also. But when the gambler will go to earn profits or handful amounts from gambling, then it will cause physical as well as mental regardless to the gambler and the gambler will soon become frustrated with his life.
It is without doubt the greed of money and when i say money i mean easy money that makes gambling so addictive. If you stand the chance of making $10,000 in a matter of minutes whereas it will take you about six months to make it normally, i am sure that everyone will jump at that chance but making money with gambling isn't as easy as some people think.
Gambling is always tempting for everyone, but also people who are always careful in following the game by relying on the luck factor. If they are lucky then they will come into play to get a lot of benefits briefly but if they are feeling unlucky then they do not follow this gambling game in order to avoid the loss. Things like this we can call a smart gambler take advantage of the situation. However, despite that, they are still becoming addicted to this game and when they are really troubled they will hang their fate on the gambling table and wish their luck to come to them.
These newbies are just fools, they don’t know want is better for them and what isn’t. They just see the charismatic behavior of gambling that it is just being used a source of income. They don’t research about the cons of it, never want to know actually. And then results are then in front of you. They starting lose everything they have gradually and ending up with nothing in their pockets.
