I think gambling is so addicting for big jackpot price.Many gamblers think if they can beat the odds then they will gey huge jackpot but those odds are always in the advantage of house so they failed everytime.But man is greedy from the beginning and so gamblers don't lose hope and try more more.This mentality make them addicted on gambling.

There is nothing about addiction in gambling if you ask me, it's all about greed and stupidity. once you realize that the odds are always in favor of the house, you'll still fall for it because greed blinds you. I'm talking from experience Cheesy.

It's not stupidity, it is a serious matter where gamblers are having hard time to get out of it. Greediness is normal to all of us and that's why gambling makes our attitude to be in depth of greed. The chances of winning more money are making each gamblers to be prone in addiction and that is making gambling simply addictive.
Well you are actually right gambling is only greed for many of us. And once we win something big we get addicted and lose double the amount we won. I think the best solution of not getting addicted to gambling is not ro gamble only.

You can think of gambling like it was a game you had to buy a ticket for. Manage your funds and deposit $10 or so every day you gamble, and try to play with them until they're gone/you multiplied them. It can be fun, you're not losing your whole amount of money and it's not that risky at all.

Exactly, they are too tempted with the possible winnings, yet, they did not focus on making ways that would be effective in achieving their goal. I don't think one would be able to succeed in gambling when he has no skills to do so, relying on luck is not effective and sometimes that makes us very unrealistic as we also say, better luck next time.
yes the temptation and the charming nature of bitcoin is the main reason which make people addicted to gambling. people join gambling for making money according to them they can make a large amount of money in a short period of time, but in fact it is not so, in fact gambling is one of the m ost difficult and risky game where the percentage of losing money is always more than making money .

Well first of all gambling is never addicting.
The reason I would say this is because most of the people who gamble and cry that they lost this much money is because of human nature as they are greedy to get more. In other words addicting = greed. I think the best way for not getting addicted is not investing or maybe having a goal before investing or maybe a strategy
But if it is addicting people into itself then we can say that gambling is addicting but only for those people who do not use much of their mind while those people who use their mind and do not waste much of their money and much of their time will be saved from it to be addicted in gambling and he will also continue his daily activities along with gambling.

It's much more of our own willingness on when do we stop in gambling. If you really can't control yourself in gambling tendency is that you will be more addictive to it and that's what happened to those people who always find time going in casinos.

Causes of own willingness probably is to win more or probably win what you lost from the casino. People always want to benefit from something,  you can't blame that because that is human nature. It is addicting because of the possibility of the winnings, and when you hit that win, you will get more addicted and probably will come back many times. That's why it is so addicting.

Playing in casino is not good thing, cuz in casino house always wins. Roulette is unpredictable , card games can be won in several ways and slots are just for fun.
Some of this game are to addicting and that way most of the time you hear or even say that gambling is addicting.
Well, playing in the casino is very fun if you know how not to become addicted to it. The more you play, the more pleasure you are. Only when you gamble without think about the profit will you feel satisfied. I have played blackjack and poker for many years and I never get addicted to it
Playing is casino will of course be fun like you are watching everything live and stuff. But that's the main problem most of the people who gamble only try to get profit and then when they get they find this is an easy way to make money and finally they end up getting addicted to it.

It is not really a good thing I just can't understand it why people are treating it as a job. Well, we just need to understand on how they are treating gambling that much and if it is giving them good result and they think that it gives them stable income then so be it. And now we all know why gambling is addicting and what it can give to the mind of the people.

Most people that actually start gambling at first and win quite huge amount are actually the one that is addicted the most. They tend to think that they have the chance to win and without realizing it they keep on going even when they lose , people cant win anything in the long run as long as it is EV- games
Yes they often stick most to the gambling sites as they have tasted the win in the start and they have started to believe that yes they have the ability to win on these gambling sites and for getting that first opportunity they continue to play again and again till the end. While some people because of their fun remain in gambling for longer.

It's your biggest problem, you are against your self because of greed, and as long as it is inside you, you will never gonna win in gambling. Gambling is only fun when you know how to control yourself, lack of discipline will lead to addiction and addiction will lead to bankruptcy There's plenty of sad circumstances and it will just ruin your life in the end.

Ya i agree, stupid and greed thats the problem. Hmm good job if you can discipline yourself but how long you can hold it? There is so many bad story about gambling more than the good story though

I will say in these words when someone keep winning or loosing both provoke the player to keep playing to win more if he is winning or to recover as next hand can be winning hand and he will not only recover his losses but also will make some decent amount.this practice of playing repeatedly makes person addicted to gambling.

Actually true,we get addicted once we win or we lose, when we win were eager to win more,same when we lose we more eager to win back what is on us. Thus things make us more addicted on it.

Something fun will definitely feels addict, I think there is nothing wrong with gambling, that wrong is if we can't control themselves when gambling. When they don't have the money, they sell it entirely to gambling, that's a fatal error committed gambler. Don't like it, make the gambling as entertainment and so will feel comfortable.
Not all fun games are addictive, it is the nature of gambling that it is addicted due to the amount of money involved when you do it. Some gambles even if they do not have the right amount to use, they spend there little money hoping they can turn it to a bigger amount.

That kind of thinking is very stupid, the fact that our chances are low compared to the house, we should be more wiser with our decision making.

Once you lose an amount you cannot afford to lose, the addiction will come.
