it is a mind problem with addiction to gambling it is the will to stop or the the will to proceed most of gambling addicts pretend that they just doing it for fun without noticing that they already loses a huge amount, really have difficulty to say whether you are addicted or not.
It really is hard to tell if a person is addicted or not they would still not gonna say they are addicted because they themselves don't notice it, but even if they are addicted to gambling if they have the will to stop themselves from addiction other gamblers can pretty much stop themselves from it, but not all gamblers can deal with their addiction, there are still some addicted with gambling and getting a hard time coping up!
Well gambling for often times is really not a normal thing especially when you are thinking that it is going to be your profession at all. Unless you are going to be an owner of a gambling then that is going to be a good addiction. But being an addicted gambler really is a syndrome, because of the hope to win big pot makes gambling addictive.
If you aim at winning big and you bet in a random manner, then a big chance of you losing is very high. Unless you have many sessions and have pre-planned bets then you have chances of winning in gambling.
