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?

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.

You must know how to control yourself. If you don't want to become one of the addicted gamblers our there. Stop betting or playing. Because once started, it is hard for you to stop. You must know how to stop as early as you can. Just a bit of advice. hehe

It's so hard to control myself when on gambling. Especially when you win some but you want more and keep gambling and you become addictive. It's become a problem and makes you lose in the end.

I think that this is the problem of every one. every one is in struggle to make more and more money in a very very short time. but I make him addicted and if he won a lot of money still he will be willing to increase it.

Yep. But another thing to note is gambling gives you a certain excitement. Same concept you get when you are drug high. And i guess that is what making it addictive.

Drug high is less risk than gambling because when you are high with drugs you will not lose money unless you also gamble but most like trips are going out on a bar with friends. On the other hand, gambling addiction is very dangerous as you might be bankrupt within a day if you make a bad decision with your money.

To me it feels like people see a way to generate a lot of money and so they gamble and keep on gambling until they win.
They won't stop until they hit jackpot. Problem is 99% don't make the jackpot phase.

It's as easy as that.

actually the gambling addiction comes when people start losing money.

because most of them, when they lose money they try their best to win it back so they chase their losses until they are out of money and even if they can they will deposit more money to continue chasing and that is why they get addicted.

Yeah you pointed out some of the reasons why gamblers always comes back for more.

chasing for the lose amount is one of it, another is that winning before and wanted to win again so they come back to play and become greedy and after that if they lose it will comeback on what you had just said that chasing for the loss amount of bitcoin.

But for some it is addicting because of the fun, excitement and thrill.

Gambling is something logical and easy to explain. And if treat it not like magical solution for your money problems - because with that mindset you will have even bigger problems.
But rather like hobby when you potentially can earn or lose some money. And never go all in, unless you are fine with the negative outcome.

Yeah nobody should treat gambling a way of earning money for living.

Gambling is actually made for entertainment, and if people forget about it and becomes greedy on the money that they might win then that is the start of their losing, and if that happens they come back for more and more just to reclaim the money that they loss.

Gamblers like us should always put a limitations to our usage of our money when it comes to gambling for us to prevent a negative effects on our life.

yeah, because not all the time you will always win the game. one time I tried to play, and I can't win a couple of game past by and I stop as early as I can for me to not get addicted to this kind of game, because I know I will just lose lots of money although our bet was just a bit of money but when the game runs to long this is also an equivalent of losing a lot of money.

I think the more we lose we will be addicted with gambling, maybe the thrill is on when we experienced losing as we are challenge and we would like to prove that we can beat that system and we will end up in the winning side.

hahaha That's true. sometimes we want to play and play all over again for us to get back our money we lose. But sometimes instead of getting back our money, we just lose lots of money hahah!

Many people like to gambling and that is because you can have a lot of fun with it so that is really nice and you can even earn some money with it if you are lucky.
And people think that they can earn money in a fast way in gambling but that is actually not true.

Yes people think gambling is the best thing to make money quick and easy, thats where they are mistaken badly. I know a friend whom when I told about bitcoin gambling was very curious but now he dont even talk to me Sad

Yeah it is the quickest but that is only for the people who are willing to risk their money to make money. Sometimes the devil will play when we are already down and we lost our mind to distract our concentration in gambling that would lead us to be on the losing side.

This is not addicting, we use to get addicted to it.
Losing more gets you more into it by wanting to get back and recover the losses, but we don't understand that's the only mistake we are doing there.

well said lines.. this is the biggest mistake we do everytime.. to get our money back

Yeah this is the thing that its hard to forgot instead we are just recovering all our loses it turn to loses more to your money.. because house is always win and i think we can not make a profit if we are greedy and we don't satisfied what we had..

totally right,

If you are greedy in gambling and continuously bet even your win amount then,

Most commonly results at the end is that you lose all that you have.

The secret on gambling is that, it should be treated as an entertainment and not a way to earn money, and also to have a limitations and control of your self when it comes to gambling.

Gambling is very addictive and that is by multiple reasons, the first one is that its fast money you will gain. The second is that its enjoying for hours.
The last reason is because people want to win their losses back and make profit.

Gambling is also one of their way to spent time, if they have a problem or they want to spent time for their friends or someone who wants to just kill time. This is also their way to enjoy and if they have a lot of money that they don't know how to spend it with just a couple of time. They will do this! Grin

Gambling is an entertainment but most of them used it as one of the method to earn money. But spending a lot of it without hope to earn big that is impossible thing, they wont enjoy losing games all the time. Although rich people sure want to get more money, the higher the risk sure have a good payout, most of the riches will play this kind of game

There is chance to win a lot money so players get started to have fun there but big winning change their way to gamble, no doubt any unexpected win can make them addicted even most of people lost very quickly right after the winning and than they keep trying to chase their loses and this thing make them get addictive.

Yes exactly when they chase their losses they start loosing more and more.
Once they are in profit with their wins, they start to think that its the time to make profit, while actually is the time to leave gambling and quit.

sadly that is true, chasing losses is the worst thing that anybody can do when gambling. i have been doing it for a long time before i quit it. when you lose you get frustrated and want to win it so you try harder and harder to win but it never works that way, so you only lose more.

I had a bad experience, when chasing losses. I always bet on anything and without analyzing. because I really want to recover my losses. but in the end it always ends with a loss. but at the moment I do not ever try to recover the defeat, I only bet when there are interesting games, such as Euro 2016, taking some interesting games and make a high profit.

That is the fastest way to lose, betting without analyzing. Just like in dice, there is no analyzing needed, just bet and click. In sports betting, you should analyze the stats and make bets accordingly. You can make good money that way, specially when you want to win back your losses.

Yeah you are right.

but still there are no surety of it that you are going to win in sports betting even you had analyzed it carefully.

In sports betting The chance of winning is the same as the percentage of losing so it means 50% of winning and losing, so still it is like in the dice.

if you want to actually earn and continuously earn money from it, then you should try to play a games that uses skills and strategy, like poker.
