When you lose, you want to recover again and again, and when you win, you want more..so you will not go until you lose all.haha

Well, that is human nature and we cannot blame people doing that, we need to chase also to win but we should always consider that chasing bets is very risky so we need to control ourselves.

That is greed and we should avoid it not just in gambling but everything in life. If we let greed take control of our actions, especially in gambling, we are bound in a lot of headaches. The key is to be satisfied in what we have. If you lose, let it go. If you win, even small amounts, be satisfied with it.

Gambling is sure addicting, by keep on playing it although it is small amount soon or later you will be consumed by it, thats why people never bother winning or losing but like you said if they lose they must let it go and if you win a little money you should get out too. So what is the point of gambling? To lose your money just like that?

they said it they just doing it for fun allowing to lose your money from time to time, i think its not for real you keep on taking risk because you are aiming to win and keep that in mind will ended you up to keep losing from time to time.

Any kind of addiction is a disease that needs to be handled and fixed thru therapy. I've read a lot about gambling addicts that stole money from their family and even their jobs just to satisfy their gambling habits.

this action sucks, cause it will occur some serious society issues, even in gambling legal countries, people donate money to casinos and casino pay taxes to government and help increase the employment rate. No doubt that gambling is a double-edged sword.

Human nature's is a gambler fallacy? i dont think so.
In my opinion it is rather that when u loose you want to recover,but when you win you become to make yourself greedy to make bigger profit,you already dont care that you might loose everything very fast if you go riskier tactic.

It clearly define humans desire as a never ending satisfaction. Whenever we hit our goal we ask for moire and when we lose it we want it to be recover and learn on our mistake.

True , the simply answer of why gambling so addicting are due it's human nature that you never feel satisfied . You will always gamble as long as your loss not recovered yet and that's what make people keep playing and get addicted.

Well dissatisfaction is really a human nature and I think it is very to stop it. And if ever you are already an addicted gambler it is very hard to get out of it.
That is really one of the reason why gambling is so addicting because of dissatisfaction.

Definitely. I think one of the biggest reasons why people are addicted to gambling is because they are dissatisfied by their current circumstances. Or, they could be chasing their losses because they don't want their balance to be so low.

I guess watching your balance grow is also very enjoyable, but most of the times it goes back down to 0.

Exactly. we should be contented on what we have and not looking for more when you know to yourself that it cannot give you any good. just like in gambling we must have limitation on when to play and to stop.

When a person is not contented at all especially those gamblers they are gambling hoping for a good back of money.
And that is very addicting because they hope for a good pay back whenever they got winnings.

I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Why is it so addictive?

What happened to you mans when you're wasting your money, your mind will say stop so you will quite. But later on, you will not forget that lose you keep on thinking about that loss. So that time your frustration will not control your mind and again you will start your game that's it. So control yourself then definitely you come out from this gambling.

Just let him do his thing because he will still realize later, bad for him because he need to learn the hard way on this own. I have been addicted in my life but I make it a point that I learn from that bad experience and I will never experience that anymore even I did not quit gambling.

That is the essence of gambling and those addicted gamblers will not really allow someone to stop them from being addicted.
Especially when they have already a lot of lose money to it.
it is just addictive like that because of the desire to return the money that they lose out of it.

I think there is two reason are there to addict to this gambling. One is Money, Yes if you lost your money in gambling or if you are making money in gambling, people will addict automatically. Another one is Games in gambling some people will addict to some particular games; they will not get sleep if they do not play that game means so like this also people are an addict to Gambling.

I believe there is only one main reason, it is only money because people will not interest in gambling if there is no money involve and since we are just human who are greedy therefore we are doing gambling to earn more money.

Yup! you are right if it is not for money then people would not have an interest in risking their money on gambling well and the habit of a person is always do what they think they can get an instant money by just playing a game but they are not aware that they would end up losing so much in gambling because of greed and emotion when playing.

Ofcourse! That's why I don't believe those people that says they only do gambling just for fun. I'm not believing those people because the time you used gambling, you already have the desire to make a profit.

No there are few people they can play it for fun. I do play gambling for fun, yes when I am get bored from my daily work or any other work pressure to come out that I will play some games. Usually, average person will spend some bucks for their entertainment it may be watching a movie in the theatre or any other habit like smoking or drinking. So I use that money here that's it.

And there are other people that denies the truth why they play gambling even if your the richest person on the planet and you say that you are just playing because you are having fun in gambling I think not, there are other things that does not involve money to play that is fun, the fact that gambling gives an amount when you bet I think people will not hesitate to play gambling because they see a large amount in it and they are playing no worries cause of the big sum in there pocket and no worries to waste all of it.

I agree. Gambling is not meant for fun it is meant for making a profit. So if you just said that you gambling because you do it for pure fun then you are definitely lying.

watch your mouth, you judge him lying too soon, hold it back. people are not the same not everyone is up to profit, life is more than that and people who are up to fun is better.

For the one who said that the other user is a lier.

Maybe in your situation you only just play for profit, consider thinking that all of persons and people have a different perspective, you should know that and if you are playing for profit then that is how you treat the game and don't use it as a base for judging others point of view when it comes to gambling.

Maybe you desperately needs a money that is why you are in chase of profit in gambling, which is a wicked move to choose when you want a money.
