I think is becoz you can win some really big amount with just a dollar or even less.

Now a day, there is lot of games, even those E-sports matches, you can bet with,
and much easier to find sportbooks then before

When you look very excited to gambling, of course it is called addict, the most important thing is you are able to control your mind and can be stopped at any time. The main factor when you seems addict is you want win.
The problem is that you are not usually aware of your addiction until it's too late.

Definitely that is what we are feeling, we are not really aware of what is happening with ourselves until we notice that we are really addicted.

And that addiction is causing our lives a lot of trouble and when it is already hard to get out of that addiction.

Because what comes to our minds is that we are able to win some good profit, if we lose then we can just recover it again while having fun.

I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Why is it so addictive?


Because gambling will tempted us to to win the game, once we are winning in the games, it amuse us and make us happy so much into it. even we loss so much but still we continue top play because we didn't noticed we became addicted into it until it becomes our vices.

Well it plays with our emotions I think. That feeling you get when you win? Same as that urge to bet more when you lose to get back your losses. It taps into human emotion and if we're not careful, it may lead to a lot of negative effects. Though there are people who are very well in control of those emotions, these people are the ones who can gamble responsibly without affecting others.

Yes true, this happen also to me, when we a lot of loss of course it make us curious and will make us continues to gambling. Others who see it will say we are addict.

It makes you curious because you want to recover back your losses at least, so you continue to gamble and end up losing more money in gambling. One should control this emotion period because you should know gambling is not for making money but you still load money and continue means people are addcited to these games and somehow they want to recover the losses. Chasing winnings in gambling is one of the biggest mistake.

Exactly, the thrill for wanting more is always what drives the addict back those addiction, whatever that might be. We humans just can't have enough, once you taste something good you want more, you become too hooked. The best way is to stop it all of a sudden, then when you get urges to gamble again do it, but come back to restraining yourself, do this periodically once you are bored of it, the urge will not be there anymore.

I dont think that the urge to gamble will just dissapear just like that if you have restrain your gambling habit. Gambling is fine unless you know what you are doing and only gamble with what you could afford to lose. Some people cant do this and this is what we called as addicted, if you are not "yet" addicted then everything is just fine

Why is it so addictive?

Because you experience how to win in the games even you loss most of the time and you win few times only. And you can't get away with it, it will be hard for you to be free, because you became a bondage of your greediness.
You are right as in that situation the gambler start believing on his skills and he say that yes he can win in gambling he base that believe on some of his winnings. So he continue to gamble and do not care for the loses and wining and do not calculate that how much he lose and how much he win. Just think that one day he will get a big victory and at that day he will become a more wealthy person.

Yes true, this happen also to me, when we a lot of loss of course it make us curious and will make us continues to gambling. Others who see it will say we are addict.

That's when a gambler is already addicted into gambling when he makes it as a necessity and not just a past time activity. We should learn that gambling is not a way of earning and that's why many gamblers are becoming addicted into because of that. And we know that many experiences that came from gambling resulted into a bad one.
Quite true mate. Most gamblers have the same problem when they become addictive in gambling. They really not care if they lost what they want is to win big time. So no matter how much money they've lost they still trying to gamble and hope that they will win in the long run that's why it's really addicting to them.
 
Thats true if you win in first time a big amount of money you will back again to gamble again and they didn't know that they have a first symptom that they have a gambling addiction and they consider gambling as their entertainment.
in those areas where people become disappointed in search day jobs. they start searching for other means of earning money, as gambling seems to be one of the most easiest way of earning money in a short period of time, therefore they start gambling, but when they start it then  they realize the fact that it is not so easy as they were carrying it. and such situations mostly accrue in backward countries where employment ratio is more.

For me, gambling such as cigarettes or drugs, once tried it will be difficult to stop. I was gambling for entertainment loneliness in my apartment, but when the results do not match expectations, then I feel really addict. I think the important thing is despite us being a gambler addict, but does not interfere with work or main business.
Its isnt like cigar or drugs addiction since it wont really affect you physically just like the two things mentioned but gambling addiction would really give huge impact in your life when you let it overcome you in the long run and you are doing the right decision we do gambling just for entertainment without compromising anything.

Why is it so addictive?

Addictive is not the word I choose, I would call us passionate lovers, we need gambling just as we need air, the thrill that comes with it and there again for me is a calming effect that Brings with it. For me gambling is like a girl, and for whom we are just passionate, sometime we loose sometimes we win. But we never stop gambling. It's what keeps us going sometimes. That's my theory on this.

it always stop when one day you realize it ruined you life. once you see yourself so much money and time is wasted on it.
i like to gamble as well but not to the point when you have to work hard for the money to gamble it again when you always knew the outcome of it - LOSING.

Probably you do not need that as air, it's part of your wants and air is our need. We can live without gambling but we will die without air, see the big difference. If you are that attach with gambling then I would say, you will not gonna end up better as there's a good chance your life will be wreck.

That is what making those addicted gamblers pursue their goal when gambling and they are just dragging themselves into addiction. So they are being manipulated by gambling and their minds are set on how they will reach that goal that they had set which is to get more profit and win a lot of games when they gamble.

yes actually everybody who gamble will never anticipate on losing.

but they will think about win win and winning , that was a wrong mindset. so once they suffering lost they feel it shouldn't happened

No one actually think that way, only a bunch of kids that actually gamble for the first time actually feel that way. Even when you think that you cant lose by using 98% chance in dice games or even more, there will always be a chance for you to lose and for some bunch of kids they feel that this thing is really impossible
sorry i confused with your statement  Roll Eyes Huh , nobody think with that way but kids? then is there. an addiction come to you with a mindset of like what i said above at first time, always have similar story in the end .

to chase the past losing , but there is never ending, without realized you have crossed the limit , broke etc.
