In short, that "emotion" is what keeps us betting, if we fail, we double our bets to make our gain faster, and if we win, we want to feel the same again so we repeat each bet, not realizing that it will not be the same the next time around... I think if there's a bad part in positive thinking, it will be when you are gambling, You are always positive that you would win even if the result is not... it would just hook us in gambling...

Yes, failing with emotion control is the reason why gambling is so addictive. But, by nature gambling is targeting our emotions to fail and behavior of human is also highly fragile to that. As long as you are good with emotion controls like not having greedy and sticking with predetermined plan, you will be able to stay away from gambling addiction.

correct! this lust inside us always wanting to keep trying our luck and instinct without realizing that we are already addicted and it is really harder to move away because what inside our mind is to make good strategy win back our loses worst thing is we keep on losing from time to time.

If you will let your self addicted in gambling then I would say that would be the end of your happiness in gambling because you will be a slave in gambling and your decision will be base on what you feel during the game, when you lose you will likely to make a bad decision that you will regret in the end.

Greediness will always kill your bankroll in gambling as it is not written on the game plan or you have no game plan at all. Regardless of your bets, if you are greedy for sure the outcome will always be devastating. Please do not do it all the time dude.

yes even you have already a gameplan but when greediness comes on its way inside your mind for sure you will lose
it is hard for us to say stop when we think that we are lucky playing that game we just realized it when we lose already.

I suggest you to just store most of your bitcoin in cold storage and print out the private key in paper and store it safe. This will make you unable to send bitcoin easily. I was also addicted to gambling before, and also delete bookmarks of gambling sites and clear the cache. Cool

The fact that you can win much money by just playing some simple games is enough for some people to get addicted to it.
Some people do it for the trill that they have when they playing and money is on the line.

Gambling is addicting because it is exciting to have fun while risking your money. Also the urge that you will keep playing when losing until you recover but most of the time people end up losing everything. The joy you are getting when you are winning because you are very lucky. What i mean is win or lose in gambling it is still addicting.

Yes, outcome of your gambling is very less significant for gamblers just to stick with the gambling out of its addiction.

There is a psychological reason behind this, more importantly gambling houses are particularly aiming that.

The first important thing is gambling makes you forget your self and your responsibility which is the similar consequence of alcoholism. Now you yourself will come to know why gambling is so addicting.

Winning scenarios or moments would surely get you addicted and would intend to do more betting thats why almost of players do lost in the long run and thats reality in gambling and when they lose they would try to make deposit again to win back the losses but its an impossible thing to do in gambling.

For us girls I think you were right, ego is so meaningful to the boys out there.
but for me it is easy to accept that I can lose in the game and I never want to waste another cent of my money just because of that ego.

Good job girl, I hope I am also a girl because I regret the times I lose a big amount of money many times and that is because of my ego in gambling, I am not actually greedy but when I lose I tend to chase my bets because the emotion is very high I cannot control anymore.

That's true because for us girls ego is not really important I don't know for some other girls but for me what more important is my financial status and of course my family, I really value them so I want to earn because of them. If you really love your family you will really think first them and not yourself.

Gambling is like medicine that we need to take everyday gambling can be addicted if we are going to play it everyday and we gonna lost profit or money or bitcoin there too gambling can't make us rich by betting and loosing money instead of holding that money for purposes in life and buy some thing.

Do you mean like a drug? cause if that's what you mean, they are almost similar only different in their after effect... Actually a gambler has a different way of thinking about saving for the future...They always have reserve for their gambling or most of their savings they are thinking of using it to gambling... I think the more you entertain gambling, the more you get in to it.

The Drug is a just example, but people will addict many things someone will addict to smoking and someone for Drinking and someone for Drugs like this many bad habits are there in that Gambling also one. So according to me if anybody does the same job daily and continuously means they will addict that job. Like this those who play gambling they will automatically addict to this gambling.

Yup, it is.. If you keep on doing it sooner or later it will be a part of you... It's good to be addicted in work, you may get tired but the fruit of it is always positive and good, but in gambling, if you got addicted to it for sure it has a negative impact to you, and family will always be the first victim of this addiction... They will suffer all your failures and misbehavior.

nicely said all this in some way this is drug or addiction to some point
for me is more fun i dont place huge bet just small one more of excitement of placing that 1,2 or 5$ per weekend on some games
but if your goal in gambling is to get rich then you are not on right place
in gambling you can go home with 1 million you can lose that million

thats correct putting yourself and your love ones into risk having gambling addiction would ruin your life because you can't avoid of keep losing your investment including everything. so better to think of them first to avoid being getting involved to this.

it is so addicting because it allows to win huge money if you are lucky enough

This why people are into gambling and becomes addicted into it. And the hope of winning big money with it for just small capital is very possible at all but at very low chance. And even they will going to lose big amount of it what comes to the mind of the people is that they have a chance to win bigger pot at it if they are not going to stop.

If that is your mentality in gambling, you will never win because it is about chances, the little your bankroll your chance of losing is high. If you are interested with the money you better be serious and to be serious you set up a decent amount of bankroll that will give you a big chance and will enable you to stay in the game for a long run.

For me, it is better to bet small amount for you to play several times and you can play in a long run because what is good bankroll if you don't know how to handle it wisely. Gambling is not a serious game, for me this is just a game and you cannot lean on gambling when you need money. This is only my opinion.

Yep opinion is always an opinion in opinion there is correct or wrong because that is the one you believe. You are also right bet small then you wouldnt notice that you are earning and just enjoy the game. But almost of the gamblers leaning on it to double their money because they are lucky they win.

Yes his opinion is balance where are wrong and correct for his gambling activities he always beting small amount to play lot and he can play in the long run he always trying his own strategy to make profit and he just enjoying the game but not most of gambler are loosing bitcoin in the long run.

I know that there are a lot of gamblers that are able to make their small amount to become big with gambling that is why they are getting addicted with gambling.

Because they have experience the essence of growing their money fast with gambling so they are just coming back again and again.

And it is happening to the point that gambling is making them addicted and keep on playing it because they know they are able to make money with it.
