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

That's right, especially for those people who can afford to gamble and they have a lot of money just for spending it for gambling and they are really
addicted into since it is once way to spent their time.

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.

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.

i think it is the most shortcut way to earn money that is why people think that they will won the money in a very very short time. but it is a game of chance. they won for one time but other time they loose their all money again. that is what make them even more eager and they tray and tray again to win but this cycle continue for ever and now one can say that they won or loose in gambling.

Gambling is addicting because its enjoying and you want to do it over and over and that is also making you addicted on a certain point!

I think, a person experiencing an addiction because they have a goal to earn profits in gambling and when they can't get an advantage in gambling, the more intrigued him with gambling and gambling always perform repeatedly.

Gambling is simply just so addicting because its fun to gamble and its so enjoying for many hours these days.

it sure is fun because lately there is a match Euro 2016 and Copa America Centenario

yeah, that is one of the most addictive thing about gambling. when you combine gambling with something so exciting like sports, matches, and many other exciting things you will only be feeding the hunger for gambling and the addiction is getting bigger because of that.

Gambling is designed that way. It is designed around a basic human emotion "Greed" the fact that many of the games are fun makes it even more attractive to our emotions. Everything about the system is designed to make you want to gamble. That is why it is so addictive.

i like your idea. they target our weak point and hit hard so we are K.O. immediately, fall down on the floor and can't raise up anymore. they own us all.

Yeah may be it is true that people always chase their lose but doesnt mean that it will become an addict, unless after you win it you still come back and play again and again, some people only want to get back what they loss and wont come back after that but most of them will come back and this is we called addiction

While that may not lead to addiction. It's still not such a good thing to observe. Don't chase of your losses. Or you will end up losing more than what you've already given away. Just accept the fact that it's already gone.

I think a percentage of 79% is a good estimate about gambling that doesn't make the jackpot you can not say that about 1% is the only winners in gambling, there will be a winning percentage of people making a jackpot, and some people that are winning in the first attempt but become over confident about himself that is why lost all of his bitcoin I think you need to include it too.
