For me it's definitely the opportunity to gain without any effort. It's so addicting simply because of that. You would rather spend your time gambling, than to work 8 hours a day, am I right?

Also the chat is just so addicting to go on. So many people giving out tips and chatting about gambling - your common topic.

sure a ordinary life with working 8 hours a day or even more, yes we are slaves, is boring and depressing, many people try to escape that souless life with shortcuts like gamble.

Because of the stress people get for working 8 hrs a day + over time daily. Is really a stressful life, so people tend to find ways to remove
their stress, some other people finds to drink alcoholic beverages and the most common is removing it by gambling.

That may be true. because the average person is very tired and stressed certainly also want to have fun, and I guess they assume that gambling is the right thing, so they returned to play and addictive

Because if your gaining, your mind think that you can earn more. And if your losing, your mind think that you can recover your loss.

this kind of thing is like a hypnotist
yes, indeed sometimes gambling can always hypnotize everyone to be able to gamble.

i guess you are right, when i gamble my money i usually dont make any decent money and i usually get hooked that i might make a lot of money without any big efforts

i think that the idea of the gambling is to allow people think that they can make a lot of money, though the truth is always different and they will surely not make you a lot of money easily

Gambling is addictive because after lose we chase and try to get recover, that is why we get addicted there and keep doing this thing again and again.

Yes this is why gamblers tend to become more addicted because they want to get recover and return the money they have lose on it.
But the tendency, instead of recovering their lose, what happens is they are losing again. Undecided

The reply is simple - once had luck and big prize u wish to feel the same euphoria like u felt after your winning once again. So addiction to gambling is the same addiction like to drugs or alcohol or any another.

Gambling is so addicting because you can easily win what you don't imagine to get. You get addicted in gambling because you think you will win and will make you rich easily not knowing that you are losing more than what you won.

True, a gambling does have a fairly strong sensation to those who already feel the gambling and eventually experiencing addiction. But I would argue that those who get addicted in gambling is definitely in mind they have a greed for big win in gambling.

Yes, the inner thoughts in making of good fortune from gambling or chasing down for compensating your losses out of overambitious about gambling are some of the reason why gambling is so addictive. We must understand the purpose of gambling to avoid these kind of addiction problems with gambling.

Its really addicting as the its a different excitement you feel in gambling especially when you put money as bets on a game. When you are betting a money that you cannot afford to lose then that's make it more exciting and the moment you lose and come back to take back its already a sign of addiction cause you will do it over and over again.

That's true. After putting a lot of money that you can't even afford to lose, all you can do is be excited about it and see how it turns out. The chance of losing didn't change. No matter how much you put in, the chance of winning didn't increase. Doing YOLO bets will only lead you to bankruptcy, and since you lost all your BTCs at once and in so short period of time, you're most likely to deposit more BTCs to recover what you lost. Most of the time, when you're trying to recover your losses, you end up having more and more losses. And you end up trying and trying to recover your losses, until you become addicted to gambling.

Gambling seems shortest way to get lot money.Most of the people think they are lucky and experience feelings that this is time when there luck it at peak.Jackpots winners and big prizes by itself is reason to make person start playing gamble and by and by it gets fall into addiction.

Only gamblers think gambling is the shortest way to become rich or to get a lot of money in short time. But in reality, it is the shortest way to lose all your money in gambling so don't every gamble to make money out of it. It is very dangerous method to earn money instead just play for fun and enjoy your favorite games.

That's the mindset of most gamblers no matter how many times I try, "I will eventually hit the jackpot". These gamblers are typically motivated by those whales they see that goes home with a lot of BTCs. They believe that one day, they will become one of them. They only need to "hit the jackpot". Even if they lose today, after getting their salary, they will come back again and try to at least recover their past loss. But they always end up having more and more losses. The more loss that they have, the more determined they get. They want to recover all of them in an instance.

This idea of gambling (become rich quickly and with no effort) makes people come back every single day and try their luck for that day. Some even buy e-book for gambling techniques.

It gives you money in quick time and that is the reason it becomes addiction, people who are smart will never get addicted to it as they know when to quit.

Yeah people will be captivated by it people will use gambling to earn money instantly but I do not think that reason alone that makes people become addicts. there are a lot of things like getting happines and others. there are various reasons why people continue to play in gambling

Yes indeed bitcoin the game if you win you'll want to play again and difficult to eliminate. And indeed remorse came too late. So it must be careful in gambling and should be limited in order not to lose money.

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?

Because of the joy of watching your balance grow. Sometimes I set myself a target to reach for the day, and I'm not bothered to do the tasks and surveys because they are so time consuming, so I gamble instead.

Of course, many times I would lose. And sometimes that loss would come at a disastrous moment. So never gamble.
