gambling is addictive and that's why it is banned in many countries, but I think that banning it is not right. Adults should have a right to do whatever they want if that not harms anybody physically. I'm not saying that gambling is a good thing but everyone should have the right to make his/her own decisions.

Banning gambling is insane, it is like you are prohibiting people of having fun when the real purpose of gambling is not really to make money. I think they should only ban people that are not qualified to gamble due to some age issue(minor) or lack of self control in gambling.
it is just possible for a casino house but doing online gambling especially with bitcoin gambling is impossible to be prohibited because of anonymous transaction so who knows if the players is just minor or not capable to do self control, the only intention of this ban is to avoid people to get addicted as we knew the effect of playing your luck it will stay in our mind keep thinking how to get chances to win and build strategy from time to time.

it is so addicting because it allows to win huge money if you are lucky enough
you are right, in my opinion you can win a lot but you need to be really lucky and it is still most probably not going to happen so you should think a lot before doing that

In my opinion luck is a basis in gambling, well gambling is a random thing that allow players to have winning streaks or not but I think gambling sites would not decide who's gonna win or loses it is on the randomness of it that makes gambling risky no controlling is needed for gambling sites to decide about it and it is up to gamblers if they would take their wits in playing a bet on it!

It's addictive cause in your mind you think you can win alot of money and they always make it seem super attractive on those gambling sites, so really its not your fault its the human mind being addicted to this kind of stuff lol

I agree with you. Gambling can make you rich in a second and it's become addicting if you win an easy money on gambling and you want more. Gambling is always make people become addictive.
It is addicting if you let your emotions control you. Gambling is really enjoyable especially when you win but there are also lots of people out there that they just see gambling as an entertainment and not to gain profit.

Yeah, that's the most important thing in we get addicted in gambling. Emotions are indeed the key factor, because it indirectly also affect the performance of our brain. If we can't control the emotions or self control then we will automatically become addicted.

atleast it's 40 for the thrill and 60 for money. you know everyone have different taste and opinion. but for me yeah 40% for having fun and 60% for the sake of money. sometimes we need an entertainment more than just a girl , and gambling come as an antidote.

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.
yes mate just getting some big wins will change our life because of that easy win we will keep on going back and keep trying our luck resulting to gambling addiction and it is really hard to accept that we are already into it, sad but true controlling our self is just coming out on our mouth but if we are already playing we still greedy ending up to lose more.

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.

Having a bigger bank roll would give you some advantage because you could  adjust your bettings but still you could stop the risk of losing your money and thats reality. Greediness would not give you any good thing if  you keep trying to aim those thing that is nearly impossible to achieve.

But I would say that is not a recommended thing to do that you are going to allot bigger bank roll at all because it can lose your control.

And you are going to be confident at all even you are going to be in a losing streak still that is going to lose all of it.

Maybe losing is making the gamblers very addicting at all.
Well, if you have a problem with self control then you are not good in gambling and your big bankroll will be at risk. But I know those who are willing to provide a good amount of bankroll they have already evaluated themselves that they can manage their emotions so they are more serious in their journey of making money.

There are  people who can really control themselves  especially when do thet play gamble because they  were those people who experienced already  on  playing  or as we called  gambling  veterans. Bank roll play important  when you play gamble it really  depends on how you manage  it and dont let your emotion ruin your game.
It takes a lot of experienced before you learn how to control yourself in gambling, with that being done well, you have a great chance to succeed in making money. Although it is a hard venture but it is doable with strong discipline and proper bankroll management. Selecting the type of gambling is the key where you can use your skills and knowledge.

How about losing, I think one reason also why gambling is addicting is because we lose more often than we win. We will come back to play because we are making such method or what we called a certain strategy to improve our winning percentage in gambling.

That is why the casino will keep advertising that some of their games, especially the jackpot can allow you to win up to 100k$ and each bet is only a few dollars. With such a small amount and such a huge payout, a lot of people will be tempted by it. And that is why real life casino have a lot of jackpots and a lot of the people are playing there.
but with the low chance it is looks like not fair but actually it is fair.
for example 1000 people played and bet $10 each , the 999 is losing and 1 person only who win the $10x999.
gambling always like that, annoying when lost but pleasing when you won. and it is make gambling addictive game.

its just because of a possibility to win big money in a short period of time

Yeah, it's called greed if to say it in one word. So the answer is don't be greedy, play for fun only, do not mind losing a small amount without trying to recover and gambling will not hurt you.
And a greedy person gets addicted even more quickly, because he thinks that if he gets lucky he can make a lot of profit. While the fact i that when you think more of winning you get more loss.
I personally feel that gambling addicts mainly because we never accept our losses and be quite, instead we chase losses.

Statistic has shown that if you manage to win when you go to casino for the first time, it is more likely that you will be addicted to it as compare to people who lost on their first time. Peer pressure also come in as a major factor so if you have many close friends who often go gambling, you will also likely to join them and gamble often.

Partially correct and you have a point, emotion do give  big effect when we are playing gambling, same as you said  if you intend to play at first place then you suffer loss for sure you would definitely  dont like to play again and opposite to those who won  in their first game fur sure they would  to play more and thats the time they get hooked into gambling.
