Because you can 'possibly' earn quick and easy money and not have to wrok. Bums like not working so tell themselves they will continue to try and chase their winnings. They all lose and cry in the end.

Indeed the fact is that you can addicted too it and that it is addicted due to the fact its enjoying and that you can earn some nice money.

And they still believe they can win and keep trying :/

At the end they do not have any money to continue so they do not then play again but I have saw some people who still have urge to gamble even they do not remain with any money with them. They often lend from their friends and they think that one day they will earn back all of their money.

I have not seen anyone in their right mind ever addicted to failure or losing. Anyway if there is any one of such then it is no longer normal. That being said, the only addictive part of gambling is the winning part and the will make one to come back or the feeling of winning is another thing one can also be addicted to in gambling. Aside those two, I see nothing else.

honestly they are not trying again instead they are realize that gambling is just for fun and entertainment if you are keep playing and never win better to stop this is what i experience before that is why i change my hobby because i am addicted in dice game and binggo before in the first time i win but few days back i lose my all winning profit.. that now i realize that it is not a good source of income.. but i am keep trying to gamble but in sports betting because it is easy to predict that the other game..

The reality sucks that those gamblers who are keep on trying again are not truly playing for fun instead they are hoping that if they will try it again, they have a chance to recover any single coin that hey have lost as they play. Better to get addicted in other helpful things than gambling or else we'll make it part of our daily life, like what we are doing now, sports betting.

I think gambling is so addicting because you are earning some easy money in just a short period of time while you are playing and you think that you can always get some money through it and also let's not forget some people just want to entertain there self through gambling

I think the tempting characteristic of gambling compel us to play gambling, as it look like to much easy to make good money from gambling in a very very shor time, but still it is one of the most risky way of making money. We must be careful while playing gambling.

Those gamblers that are thinking of being careful as they gamble that is making them more prone in being addicted. Why? Because we really can't be careful in gambling because it is given that every time we gamble there is really a chance that we are going to lose a lot. And once we lose, that will give us the eagerness to recover the lose which is leading us into addiction.

that's became a problem when we are after our loses not realizing that every time we play like this we won't be satisfied with small wins and keep on trying to recover making us prone to lose more and more so better to understand our self and how far we can control our emotion we need to make sure that we are playing just to have some fun and not chasing for a big win to avoid wrecking our life.

Yeaa basically they got a wrong definition about how gambling work actually.
It will never provide anyone a profit under certain condition, they will just get an addiction nothing more.
The excitement and delusional in your head when thinking about the potential winning that you can get when you bet x amount on xxx odds lure you and makes you addicted.

The loss of bet will make people addict this gambling. You are right people will lose money in gambling, and they will chase that to gain back, but the result is a corresponding loss. Here controlling your emotions in play is very important, if you can not control your emotions, you will quickly addict to this gambling.

Unfortunately, winning in gambling also makes people addict with it.
If everyone realize that there will be no possibility of making profits from gambling then no one will continue it. They will simply quit. But there are some people with big faith on gambling to make big profits from it. That is the reason they continue with it either to recover their losses or to double their bankroll. But addiction only is the final achievement.

I agree with your statement. It's not just losing your money; it's also the thrill, the possibility of winning. When you think you can win, you should go for it, but if you are scared that you'll just lose money if you bet on it, you should trust your gut and STOP. It will only make things worse than already is.

And every time a person get's more win, that is making them confident that for their next time they will gamble, they think that will win again.
So instead of stopping, that is making them more to pursue their own instinct that they will win again and that's making them addicted for believing themselves that they are lucky enough.

It's been told here a lot of time. But anyway, that's true, people are getting lazier as the time pass by and even in earning money they want it quick and easy. Sooner or later everyone will be dreaming of just signing a paper they will earn money or in the future just by blinking their eyes. Money really makes us change a lot.

This may be a fact - I think most of the gamblers who were addicted to it are from families with poor living condition like having scarcity in food or material things, or being unattended by their elders and become lonely.

Yeah money can be your winnings and there's a lot of it the main reason that you can be addicted to it is the fun you experienced and your desire to win for chances of bigger amount. Some people could not manage their emotions while they gamble, if they'll lose their bets they are more eager to bet more amount in order to cope up with their loses but still it isn't worth it because they more become tied to it and results to addiction.

It could easily happen if such person has no room to accept the reality of defeat in gambling, it's certainly part of gambling so one must be realistic enough to see the risk and eventually accept it. A gambler who accepts the defeat will always be appreciative in gambling despite of the fact that are fighting in a losing battle in terms of profitability.

Winning money alone is not the reason that people become addicted to gambling. there are people who do not win money and just play for entertainment and still they addicted because of the fun available in gambling and there are some people who often chase their money when they lose and for that they spend each minute of the day whom are called as addicted.

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?

It all about the hope, adrenaline and being excited about winnings. It is kind of watching a horror movie.

Yeah gambling is basically very entertaining and which is what brings us back to it every time. You could compare it to movies but I think if it comes to sports betting and its crunch time, It becomes a better experience than movies(If you win of course)

Well I meant like the horror movies - they are scary and you watch them anyway. And what's more you watch them because they're scary. You play even though you know you may lose. That feeling when you don't know whether you are gonna win or lose is really important and kind of "fun" for many.

exactly, the factor why gamble addictive it's due something unique on your feeling when you get the thrill by just simply staking money , make a prediction and expect an additional money from it. you know gambling could make you feel bad when you lost it , but well you can't do much to avoiding from a fact that the way you get the thrill make you addicted.

in addition, the factors that most good in the play is addictive gambling is, when you think you can win large amounts with a single bet with high stakes. Well, it could make you completely hooked on gambling, especially gambling is a game that is really interesting. when you think like that, then you're probably not going to stop gambling until the money that you have been exhausted.

i am experience this in the first time i am play but right now i realize that there is a game that can be addicted and can drain your walelt fast..
Now i choose wisely if what game is a good to bet.. i converted in to sports betting because i can make profit in poker dice and bingo.. unlike in sports betting but it can be still addicted games with exciting..

Honestly, you can become addicted to anything. No matter what it is. But of course there are more "dangerous" and less "dangerous" games. But we usually get addicted to something we really enjoy so the best games we enjoy the most are usually the most addictive ones, as well.
