Gambling is just so addicting because of the fact that you can win money at the first place and because its a game and games can be highly addictive if you play them for a while and you find them enjoying.

I agree the fun and the profit that comes in playing gambling game is highly addicting.  If you are winning, you keep on asking for more wins.  While winning, there is this feeling of happiness that you will experience and get addicted to it.  When the situation is reversed, you still keep chasing your losses and the idea of taking revenge take place.
That's addicting when you are both aiming for the fun and the profit, and based on my experience when I aim for both normally I easily lose my bets. Factors that would affect is that sometimes when I am too excited on the game I am vulnerable to chasing my bets, which in my normal plan it does not really include, but due to lack of self control I force to make it.

Why is gambling so addicting? Just because gambling could make you happy. People always get addicted of some thing that make them happy.  But something addicting always have a bad cuases
the pleasure given by gambling is that it is only temporary pleasure. The pleasure we get when we get an advantage in the game. However, if we lose then the pleasure is gone. it will make someone motivated to do gambling again to regain those losses. here was the danger of gambling addiction.
Honestly speaking, in my life I have made tons of bets and never even for a second I felt relaxed or pleasure, yes I feel pleasure when I win but when the bet is placed and not settled yet then I am curious and anxious. Though, like you said maybe some people get pleasure because they are rich ?

it is mainly because it allows you to make some decent money even though the possibility is a really small of this happening
if we apply the correct strategy in gambling, then the result will not be a loss, even the games will be profitable, so that people will continue to play this gambling puz until they are completely satisfied with what was achieved in the gambling game.
If we apply correct strategy in gambling ofcousre we win and because of winning we lean our full time on gambling website which is we take advantages for those who are loosing bitcoins thats why we are addicting so much in playing gambling

Theres no such strategy exist on gambling which make us win  in any  games. Gambling is addicting  in the sense  of  emotion when  you are experiencing  winning  situations  and   would make  you to play even  more but sad to say not all situations   are win but  we would  surely experience lose.
There are we always creating strategy when you are betting low to high when you are loosing is that not strategy you think? of course strategy exist when we are playing and thinking not to bet on the next round. Gambling is addicting when you are loosing money and then you are going back to that website to bet again And not controlling physical emotions.

True and I think those getting addicted in gambling is the person that is not contented in their life and seeking with other things that make them satisfied. That is only my opinion.  Roll Eyes
Exactly, and that is because of the desperation to experience a comfortable life but they are blinded by the reality that gambling is not the key in getting their goal in life, they want to do it faster and they have seen an opportunity here in gambling that's why they are here aiming for the reward but most of them get addicted and failed.
That's actually a good point to ponder on there sir. People who are in desperate situations and have little means tend to turn on luck to bail them out. A few get lucky while most only made their situation worse

Gambling is very addicting because of the different reasons one of the reasons is that gambling is profitable and people want to earn money fast, the problem is that they do not realize you will need a lot of luck to win a lot fast so that is very bad.
I think there are a lot of reason, and another one is because gambling is also enjoying for hours.

How can gambling became profitable? In fact it is the reason why people become poor and broke..But anyway, what I think makes gambling addicting is when you feel like its easier to get money when you win your fist bets...That's where you start to believe that you could really win easy money in gambling and you then start to invest to your bankroll and repeating everything til you empty your bankroll and your wallet...  Smiley
In general gambling is not profitable but there are exceptional gamblers who are making money in gambling and that is true because they were able to use their skills very well, most of us failed since we do not make it seriously as we just want to have fun also the same with making money.

Honestly, the only way we can make money or win is just to invest in different gambling sites, less effort on our part and we are ensured with a profit.

A gambler really needs to get serious with every drop of money or bitcoin he would use in gambling because of the risk involve with it, but here are certain gamblers that really making a lot of money with it not because of skill but on luck alone but this kind of person is just limited and it happened just by chance!

i think gambling addiction is usually one of two mainly things, knowledge that you have won before, and can gain again
People thin that they can win with gambling and that is why they keep gambling on and on until they win again. It is also not much that you have to do.
The fact that you can play games and win money is enough reason for some people to gamble.


people always gamble in delusion , they want an instant money.
with this mindset treat gambling as money maker gambling make them have an addiction.
as the games itself quiet funny and make them so comfortable make money while they just playing a game.
Instant money is the real reason behind gambling, you are exactly right, I was very addicted some months ago and hence I know when we get addicted and how to get away with it. I always kept feeling like I can make 10-20$ easily but anyways I am happy that I am out and away from gambling now and wont gamble much again.
Good move on your part, there is no way we can make easy money in gambling although your goal is to only make a small amount of income in a daily basis, the thing is if we keep winning we will not be contented and we will increase our goal and until such time we will lose as in the long run we will really lose.

yes it is addicting because of getting entertained for longer time and when earning money is involved in any type of entertainment then it become more attractive and then people like it to test more and give more time to it.

because the house already planned it for everyone who plays gambling.
I don't think any casino's are rigged but yes you can get carried away with your wins. You will always loose in the end since there was a edge with which you were playing for too long, and in the end it ended like it should have ended .. hehe but true.
I think you should gamble only for fun or for satisfaction if you gamble for money then well, good luck !
Why would they need to rig it when they already have the edge to win in gambling. I believe trust are very important to them to attract more clients and if a game is rigged gamblers will surely notice it.

The point is not about rigging games, it is about system.. People that play a lot can confirm that when they start playing, many times is coming nice win. I mean many times when they start betting is coming one nice reward, then with time (usually) rewards are smaller. It is programmed to attract playing for new clients. Usually when someone win at the beginning later much easier is increasing bets..
Some games are designed like that in there we are rewarded in the start so that they attract us to gamble but as the time pass and we continue to play we lose al of what we earn at there and remained with nothing.

It's because gambling is like drugs, you always want more on gambling even you are win or lose. The feel when you have a bet and the sweat and your heartbeat makes gambling become fun.
Really? gambling is not like drugs but you are having fun playing gambling , gambling is hobby and like sports that your mind really think and then follow your instinct but im not sure that you are going to win straight evendo your going to hard playing. but gambling for me is really but and really addicted.
You are right, people are taking gambling addiction too seriously, though yes if you loosing too much then you should but that been said gambling is a hobby like you watch movies and spend money on various other hobbies, cannot be called brutal or killing or can be compared to smoking or drinking, since gambling does not affect us physically.
