the reason why gambling is so addictive is because we believe we can out smart the system(house) or we get to carried away from our first win or loss and want to win back what is ours and it becomes a cycle.

Gambling can be very addictive this is due the enjoying part it can have at people, the most people think its enjoyable to gamble.
They forget there is also hiding something else after that and that is money, people see money on their screen and want to win.
The problem is most people do not say this they are thinking that its just for a enjoying part but before they know it it already lost a lot of money because of gambling.

willing or unwilling, people who feel the loss of gambling indirectly they will conduct gambling back because they have a sense of responsibility to get back the money that has been lost, and this is what indirectly make the person has become addicted. addiction is not because of the pleasure, but the addiction caused by the need.

I agree, they get addicted because they need something and they find something which they can achieve it. They need money, then they gamble, then they find gambling a way to earn money in an easy way so they would always do it. They don't realize how much they are already losing because they are addicted to it. They will just notice it until some serious effects will happen on them.
The main problem is that it makes people addicted to gambling, you always have the hope to win for this time and continue hoping for every time, so you become addicted and then it become so hard or unable to quit it even after realizing the bitter truth that there is no future in gambling.

Hoping to earn money from gambling is a big shot to nothing, always treat money games/ gambling as a past time and entertainment. being addict to gambling requires real life rehabilitation.

The best way to do is just to quit gambling, you are not good in gambling as every time you play you are always thinking of controlling yourself but it does not happen. Bear in mind that gambling is only an entertainment and this game requires deeper maturity as a person to understand that we are fighting in a losing battle if we go further with all our effort and money.

Quitting gambling itself is already a challenge and it is really hard. Some people think of it as an entertainment however most people just think of it as a paradise to get more money, addiction to gamble is probably the hardest think that someone could be free off and most people just ended up ruining themselves more



Yeah, addiction is one of the hardest thing to avoid and stop in terms of gambling. It is happening when a person starts to experience that he is earning good money,fame and entertaining as he gambles. That's why even though many of them are suffering from a bad lose still they are hoping that they will taste the essence of gambling and having good fortune from gambling.

Whenever I tried to stop gambling my mind keep telling me "what if today is your lucky day?", "and if you stopped today, you will waste your opportunity to catch your luck!". That's why, I am still at this business till now.

I think it is being experienced by most of the people here. Because even you have the willingness to quit gambling and stop your addiction but when you think about the chances of winning you will really regret if you will not gamble for a day. But what is happening is a total regret, because most of us are just losing and will say 'its better if I didn't gamble today."

From my own position here, the only thing addictive is the part of winning then I am of the opinion that I will win again aside that, if I should lose successively and I have even reached the level I won't go beyond, then I am stopping immediately to come another day and try my luck there. Winning is the only addictive part and nothing else.

Both winning and losing makes people get addicted. Winning, as you said it may lead us to play again and again because the feeling of winning. Losing, it makes us try to recover our previous loses which lead us to play more till we can recover loses even though in fact we will only lose more when we try to recover loses.

Yeah you're right. Once you've experienced both, and if you're not careful, it's like slowly sinking in quicksand. Whether you win or lose, the pull of gambling will be hard to resist. It plays with your emotion and self control and if you're not careful, if you succumb to the things gambling is offering, then you're in for a very scary situation. And what makes it more dangerous is that gambling is associated with monetary betting. It give you the same effect as being addicted to cigarettes as you know excessive use has a negative effect you can't really control it. though this case instead of the risk of getting cancer, you risk getting bankrupt and in debt.

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?
yes my feel too , i think gambling was created with in addictive
and addictive is a sign that gambling ..
interest in gambling is the beginning of addiction. Well, I guess it's fair goes back to play, even though you know that the money you use to gamble it will run out. Well, almost everyone who gamble like that. I guess it is the effect of gambling, and it does have a sense of enormous interest to try again.
No I do not think so. I am very interested in gambling but I have never get addicted to it since I joined the gambling industry in 2015. I know that gambling is just a type of entertainment so I rarely think that I can have a decent amount of money there. Even though you may win some games, the house will know the way to retaliate and take back the winning money
I think you are the most lucky person who is not addicted to gambling, there may be very little number of people who can claim that they are not addicted to gambling and they can stop gambling any time they want, as most of the people who are playing gambling on regular bases are mostly addicted to gambling.
Yes if someone can control to stopping gambling anytime they want surely they are not addicted but im a little bit not trust about it due I have try to control my self when gamble but mostly failed.

That means you are addicted to gambling. Because if you're not addicted you certainly can stop anytime you want, it is as easy to talk, but it is a fact and not just talk. Because it is in this world a lot of gamblers who easily quit whenever they want. If you're not addicted, you also must be easy to stop anytime you want. Self-control is going to be difficult if you're already addicted, it's normal.
Sometimes we think we can easily stop prior to actual gambling but the real battle is when we are playing already especially when we are down with  big loses, that time is a hard time for us and only few can stop and keep the remaining smaller portion of our bankroll to end our day.

That is what you called, easier said than done, every gambler can testify that as we have certainly experience it.

Yes that is making us all addicted in gambling when already tried to win for sometime. What comes to our minds is that when we are going to gamble again we have the chance to win again and that is making us more addicted into it. We are always aiming for that turn that can change our lives assuming to win a big amount but we are falling into addiction.

Yes thats what just happened to me. I won alittle but then the other bet I had that was 0.001btc more lost. So I placed another bet on another game to recoup the loss of the winnings that I could of had. Sounds weird huh but in the heat of the moment you are frustrated so you do anything to win it back .

Forcing yourself to recoup what you have lost is a sign of addiction and gambling isnt meant to make you rich but more like designed to make you lose more everytime you decided to wager. The addiciton is actually not about gambling but much more about money, if you are obsessed with money you are most likely be addicted to gamble as well
This is the common problem among gamblers they thought they can get their loses back so that's why they keep playing till there's nothing left for them. Controlling yourself will keep you manage your bets and might know when to stop especially on at least 2 or 3 losing streaks then try another day.
I have my personal experience in gambling, I play gambling for last 5 years and I think for more than 10 times I decided to stop gambling for every time I remained succeeded not for more than 1 months and then start playing gambling again.

Now I have to decided not to quit it but to continue it with a new strategy to play gambling with low money that I can afford to lose.

The same problem for everyone else and thats the main reason that many losers still gamble. Most of them ended up as a leechers to those high rollers on the site. Sometimes you win while sometimes you lost however if you want to try some luck then go ahead and play with huge bankroll, you might be able to win some decent amount

Many people see gambling as a game and that is not good. I hope they will realize that gambling is very bad to do.
And they dont know what to do if they dont gamble. But you must search something else that you like to do.

Well you can see it as a gamble but you just have to control yourself and stop on a certain point, the most people cannot do this because they are already sucked in it.
Gambling itself is not bad, you can do it in your spare time for the entertainment.
The only fact is that the people are bad that they cannot control themselves in my opinion.
