The most people likes to gamble and that is logic because you have to know that there are a lot of people that wants to gamble and that is nice.
But in the most cases there are a lot of people that is losing money with gambling and that is wasted.
You won't feel you are wasting you money if you enjoy gambling. Only those people who are doing gambling for the sake for profit will feel that, anyway they have the right to feel that way because they will never ever gonna win in the long run.

Dont play for the sake of winning. Treat it more like other form of entertainment and you wont end up chasing after your losses. So no matter you win or you lose, you still have enjoyed yourself. Of course, profit would be a little nice bonus to have too.

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?
People tend to think they can profit a lot with and when they lose they think all the funds loss can be recover buy playing with high stakes. That's what I think it goes why gambling is so addictive. But there's a high chance that if you stake all your funds you might end up losing it all.

Why is it so addictive?

I got same issue like you. I know at the end (with my methods) i will lose my money in gambling.
But after i postponning to not make bet or play. I just keep make bet until today.  Undecided

Self controlling and understanding is the best way to not got addicted in gambling.
Gambling is like an addicted sport but you cant get better in it because the machine always wins. You are addicted to the sport/game not to the money.

Why you talk like that , maybe you lost your money on gambling.
We at least have lost in gambling , but you can learn from your past. About profit you make.
And not to be greedy , if you don't want to lose your money.. It's all about planning..

Planning, strategy will never help you in winning, when it comes to gambling its all about luck, and if you win on regular basis then you think that you can win more and you get addicted to it.
Not really, planning helps you to decrease your losses and to minimize your loss. I think though in things like dice you need only luck and any strategy will just delay your loss, you can not avoid it for sure.

Losses and addictions are very much sure things every gambler can get from gambling regardless of what ever plan you are following.

yeah you're right,
 
for a games like dice that are totally based on luck, you cannot help it but to lose actually, even you do have a lot of plan on how to managed gambling on that game.

But if you apply that planning and strategy to a game that uses skills more than luck like poker, then you pose a chance to win ad continuously with.

But in gambling we should always think that there is a lot of risk and we should consider it every time we bet.

Sometimes when we think about gambling, its should be just for fun a limited amount of money on gambling. That way it is not always a regret if you lose but if you win. Try storing your invested amount when u gamble and use the money you won to bet another gamble.

Cause you wanna money instand.
You need things gambling is just for lucky. may "CHEAT"
But you need fisrt foundation for yours mind set, what this gambling then what this money.

It no doubt, those who get addicted in gambling because of greed and they don't think of life. After that they always force yourself to perform the gambling and fast profit, so they increasingly feel curious towards gambling and ended up getting addicted

Gambling is so addicting because its very enjoying compared with other methods to gain bitcoin these days.
Its a game you are playing and due to that its addicting.

That's the real reason why gambling is very addicting, is that because the enjoyment and entertainment it can give for the gamblers.
And at the same time while enjoying, they have chance of getting some money but also higher risk of losing their money.

not all gamblers can experience addiction in gambling, because some are trying to ignore it and some control their betting and others were simply taking a look and then realizing how risky it is so they stop playing gambling to try other not risky stuffs.

I have friends who totally not interested in gambling and i have friends who keep going to gamble in real casino once every month. They even have to take a 8hr journey just to reach there and they still do it every month. So it is not a cup of tea for everyone but it is definitely an exciting activities for many people.

Yup! there are certainly different motives for every gambler and we don't know what's going in the mind of every person who is gambling and not all people are getting addicted in gambling and not all are that serious when it comes to gambling and definitely not all have the same mind set when it comes to gambling.

when I won a little amount, I want to won more until I lost more
Thats a common result when gamblers are playing simply because you cant win in the long run. Thats why some are betting like theres no tommorow because you only win few times most of your gambling carreer. They like to recover all their losses and win big in one time.

That is hard to do because the bigger you bet, the bigger amount you lose. So, trying to win back your losses is hard to achieve. It is better if you forget that altogether and focus on earning your money back thru honest work. Avoid gambling at all cost. You will have more money if you do not gamble.

very well said, It is good that other people think about how to save money and not how to spend their money in gambling not because they want to loose but they really want to get more money as they expected. Focus in your work and you surely you will get a good bonus from your company instead of gambling. hehehehhe  Grin
Work is boring and gambling is not, you will feel the thrill in gambling and the chance of winning a good amount that would give you a chance to completely quit your work is so tempting that is why many small gamblers have tried their luck and most of them failed.

that is not a good thinking. If you really love your work you will never get bored with it. Once you love your work. It will give back a good bonus with you and also you will get the trust of your workmate and also your boss! Smiley

The problem in my opinion always starts, with that first big win.  That illusion of moneym screws up ur way of thinking
When you experience the beginner's luck then you will think that you can make it all the time and when you bet again and your unfortunately loss, you will do some kind of experimenting on your method until you will not notice that you have been playing it regularly.

Its simple in having fun you get 100% return on many games or you loose straight away. Just consider if you would be getting only 1 or 2% on Casinos games. Do you think majoirty would be playing the same?

Its easy to get money or loose it . But if you have extra for fun , fun becomes additive.
Everyone who starts gambling never intend to get addicted or earn money with it, people try it for fun. But the addiction of gambling is such bad that when that fun turns into terrible hobby you never understand, so yeah I agree with you.

Well, I guess that happened in gambling win it makes a person very happy, especially if we just play for fun. it would be very nice. maybe it could give us the money very quickly, and profit can you get if you win is more than 120% on the money you use to gamble even more. but the risk is very large.
