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.

Gambling is addicting because it touches one of the human weaknesses-greedness.

good point cuz we are very greedy in nature

i mean what is greed?
a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (in gambling it is money)

sadly that is what drives most of gamblers in the world
the poor state of a person who can make the urge someone to play gambling because gambling only with poverty may be lost in a short time.

Gambling is addicting because it touches one of the human weaknesses-greedness.
As everytime you win some you will want to earn more,even if you just won the lottery of a million dollar.
And if you lose you will most likely keep gambling and you will promise to yourself that you will stop when you get back the money you lost.

Absolutely correct, Actually, we all are greedy especially for money. Because we want to earn money in a fast way, and when we saw gambling is best way to give us money in a short time, than we play it and always we play because we want to win in it, and in this way, we forget that gambling is a risky and also continuously, we play it than we don't see that we became addicted person.

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.

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.

Yeah, gambling is not their enemy but themselves when gambling. Either they win or lose they still gamble because of the huge price or jackpot in it. They think it is their ticket of getting rich from it. Even if they already win, because they win it in gambling not from hard work, they lose their winning fast.

The hope of hitting the jackpot and winning some big amount with gambling is making the people falling into addiction with it.

Because no matter what happens and how many lose they will experience as long as they are hoping and believes that there is a shot that will be able to ascend and recover all their losses.

They will keep on gambling and makes them more addicted to it when they already experienced that shot of winning.

I agree, most of the time gamblers became addicted because of the instance that they experienced to gain profit from winning the gambling and yes that might be the main reason why most people who are dealing with gambling became addicted and enjoyment or entertainment is not the real reason as most of them came to gambling actually for profit.
Yes every gambler is expecting to win and become rich within minutes and this thinking make them additive to gambling. If someone wins in gambling and he starts think just one more time to gamble and to win, that is enough so he will lose again and he will try again to repeat his winning and stays within gambling and get addicted.
I think that's not true, what you are trying to make an example is not really what is happening, if we can be rich within a minute then we should be gambling with a decent amount of money, however the reality is not, most of the gamblers cannot afford to have that big bankroll while they are hoping for a bigger win, they only use a small amount of money which made them too reliant on their luck.
People keep comes back to gambling even they know would loss again, I thought it's because  they think could win and recover their loss, in simply word "hope". Moreover if you see that other player winnings, makes you attracted to gambling too.

Also contentment is a big factor that makes us addicted with gambling. Because when we know that our winnings for a day is not enough and too small it doesn't satisfy us.

So instead of stopping even though we already won, what we do is keep on gambling and hoping that we are already to win more.

And that is leading us to lose more money as we gamble that makes us addicted as we play.

It is because the part of your brain associated with winning in gambling are your dopamine receptors. They are responsible for pleasure, and also addiction.
It is really associataed with winning thinking that in gambling we can win we always think that positive enough when we are gambling our money. Being responsible in our money we keep value them and wanting to grow that fast in to fast way also the pleasure of beeing greedy make us lose and cumback with another deposited money that's why we are getting Addictive.
Great explanation, but bottom line we should not spend the money that is not intended in gambling, our hard earned money is for our family and our savings, the moment we spend it in gambling it will be the start of the future bigger problem and such addicted will ruin our life.
We should spend our money sometimes to earn money but trying to spend it in gambling site's won't help us to earn money sometimes the more we need money the more we triggered to do gambling. We really desperate to because of financial problems and when start wiining that the reason why getting addicted and in the end will start ruin our life.
Personally I will not call gambling your money away as “spending your money” because when you spend money you obtain something in return a product or a service, when you gamble at best you will get some fun, but you can get that for free almost anywhere.

You can get it for free if you will use some faucet sites and try to collect for the whole day with small capital with your favorite gambling site. I guess when addicted gamblers are already bankrupt if no one wants to allow them to loan some money again to gamble. This is what they do and that's really making gambling so very addicting that gamblers will do anything just to recover their losses.
I was not referring to using your time to gather bitcoin from faucets and then gamble that money I was talking about engaging in other hobbies that offer lots of fun at no cost like practicing your favorite sport, or watching TV.

Gambling so addicting because when win, peoples would think it is easy way to get rich from gambling. They forget that his opponent was also thinking like to win, so it's certainly will lose and win. And from the experience of winning, they could more easily earn money rather than business or work. It's what makes gambling is addicting.


That's the mindset of many gamblers but that is making them wrong and they keep on trying and trying again for believing that.

And upon believing with that thought they are not even thinking about their lose, it doesn't matter to them when they lose.

Because they are thinking they can just get it back again but we all know what's happening next.

they could more easily earn money rather than business or work.

In some points yes but they could easily lose money and get bankrupt.  I gamble because gambling is one of my leisure. I don't gamble my money too much because i know and base on my experience you can always lose. Even so i still gamble even i kept losing just to relax myself from work and have chat with the community of the site.

and finally in the end, his life will just ruin because of his addicting in gambling and after that, he will regret it for what his done. the gambling is really tempting activity for many people because there is a lot of money we can win and this makes many people to still continue to play. the tempting itself is called gamble to stay at the house and play the games no matter they loss or win, and all the gamblers think is how i can make money with my best strategy.

I agree with your some of parts.Yes,every gambler is expecting to win.Ultimately this winning mentality most probably throwing him in losing circle also become addicted to gambling.Gambling is so addictive like drugs.Now it become popular pastimes for people today.In my previous experience i can say,It should be better if you came out this addiction.
many people who play gambling with the hope of winning. in fact, even though they had lost and ran out of money, they will keep coming back to play in order to feel profit when gambling. Well, gambling is very makes people become addicted, curiosity with victory

A lot of people asking why does there are people that are very lucky with gambling and why does he don't have that kind of luck, well that is simple because he is not you, and luck doesn't just fall from trees that you can pick it up and go on with your game without thinking that you can not lose no more because of the risk in gambling some people are losing that much even if you think harder in obtaining a profit over gambling it will always fall in randomness.

Im a gambler, not expecting but thinking rather. Every gambler thinking of winning but were expecting to lose when we step up in gambling. I dont know, we cant stop ourself dreaming of winning huge amount or atleast amount that we are satisfied.
