Gambling is something that appeals to most of us , kinda look good food appeals to most of us. Sometimes it is so addictive we don't want to stop gambling. Like food if you addicted you will get fat so you stop both these addictions the same way. It is in the mind. It will take some time but you can get over it. You must know when you have had enough and never have too much if a good thing.
Wen can stop playing gambling there are chances that we really want to earn more profits than we desire, You can't really compare gambling into food things eating is mainstream we need to ate everyday . Aiming is one of the problem here being desperate to earn but people know when to stop when they are winning then they can descipline there selves to not addicted into gambling.
I cannot believe that someone compared gambling to food we need food to survive but we don't need gambling at all and understand that for those that are addicted to it it can seem that they need it but that is not the case at all.

People who usually gamble alot don't know what they are doing and are out of control.
At this point they should seek medical counselling  because they obviously have a mental condition if they can not stop gambling and are definitely addicted to it.

Not always because many people claim to find gambling as a source of entertainment. However I dont think this is true and that they are actually trying to cover their addiction by saying such. No one finds throwing away money as "fun" when it is your hard earned money. Either that person is too rich or someone tipped them.

But of course addicted gamblers must seek professional help.

Gambling is addicting because it is a way for you to earn money without any skills required. Unlike other methods of earning money, you need to have qualification and knowledge, gambling dont. However, they dont want to know that gambling also make you lose instead of win.
It's a way for us to earn easy money but it's also easy to us to lose it and donate it to the owner of the gambling website i don't have actually skill when playing in gambling and im just depending on my luck i don't need to be a qualified player or good knowledge to start gambling. Gambling is more about triggered when loosing we are going to chase it that's why.
People always in the illusion that they can earn easy money with gambling but in fact, they money they lose is higher than the money they can earn. I believe that gambling also requires skill and experience like other jobs. However, there aren's many players realize this and most of them keep gambling without thinking about learning other skills or experience from other players. And due to this fact, they can easily get addicted to gambling

Yes, They just feel that they get more money in gambling, but they are not reliaze that the spend a lot of money to gambling and I'm sure they spended more than how much they get in gambling.
Honestly you can only get fun and enjoyment but if you are serious to make a profit it can be a bad result that you will lose a lot of funds and i think you will always to deposit just to chase and recover all your loses.
Almost all game is all depends in luck or more in luck than experience or skills. . if you serious of making profit you will just lose until you will be came back until you will be addicted..

There is not like when to stop in gambling because those thinks are good to write and talk but in reality it is almost impossible to implement for most of us. We always realize only after losing all our money so it is good to play only for fun instead making money out of gambling.
We can't really stop playing gambling once we started loosing money into it and then we are going to write what experience we gain in playing gambling we can't apply what we've learned in gambling loosing money by being greedy and you are going to be greed again when your chasing your lose.

There are only two reason why gambling is so addicting, First you can win money and second reason is because gambling is good for leisure.
I dont know whether gambling is a good leisure ,but if you are rich and have a big bank balance then it makes sense to make gambling as your leisure hobby Cheesy Winning money through gambling is not a easy task so forget about that Smiley

yes i am agree but it is impossible to make a big bank while we don't know how luck we are when we playing gambling. and gambling is attracting people to come back again to win the prizes without people realize that they make a mistake to come back in the gambling site. but gambling is really an addicting games like the other games online and offline.

Gambling is addictive because the though that comes to your mind is money. The possibility of warning if you let out money. It's easy money. When you think about it, the more money you let out, the more possibility you can win. But that's not always the case because the house has an edge against players, but that "Thought" is what makes it addicting. That's what I think about this discussion.
Well, if you really wanna play against the house edge then you will lose in the long run, that will be addicting since you are losing and will never success. You should choose your battle and just select games where you think you have a great chance of winning and that is not a gambling games which has a house edge for that matter. It's addictive since we are challenge and we keep on experimenting method to win but still we are not getting the right method.

The two reasons really describe the state of gamblers when they gamble. their hope is to win gambling besides it any way they could relax the gambling play. but hope they will be a threat to their lives if these expectations do not correspond to the reality experienced gamblers.

you are right. between pleasure and profit, it will make you addicted to gambling. Well, many people are like that, even when he was hooked on gambling, he risked everything, because hope, that gambling can make it get much profit, or sink into the pleasure

If you just go for the pleasure, there is no addictiveness of a gambling game because pleasure is brought through eating candy as well, but do you see people using their entire life sayings on candies as well? No. Because there is no "profit" from eating candy.

There might be a potential payoff for people who gamble, and this is why they are addicted. They are attracted by that potential payout.

I really love your analogy mate about candy in relation to gambling and I totally agree with that. We should only gamble for fun, entertainment, or pleasure and not aimed at profiting from it because at the end of the day, we are going to make any profit especially if we just gamble randomly.

Aiming with profit in gambling is not going to be effective in the long run. It can be effective for a short amount of time, but in the end that will lead you to regret that move. And that is making people addicted with gambling if they are aiming with profit too much because of that it is leading them in too having a lot of lose.

I could not agree more with you mate. It is always a good feeling to just gamble for fun and not profit. Of course, only gamble a certain amount of money that you can really afford to lose - think of it as just like watching movie, you enjoy watching movie even though you cannot get back the money you get from buying the movie ticket.

Nice! I do agree on you. Like watching a movie you should enjoy while watching it because you know you cant get back your money anymore so just like gambling enjoy playing while you know that you can loose your money from it. Enjoy that is the important thing

Watching movie and playing gambling are two different things you can not compare this two because it is most different in enjoying the movie and enjoying the bets on gambling, while watching movies you can surely enjoy it to the fullest and most enjoyable part are the ones that you really want to watch the most and you will pay for watching the movies but never expect a return in watching it, while in gambling you would use money while expecting something will return to you.
