Gambling always offers a chance to get a large sum in an easy way and this very attracts fans of easy money. Personally, I take it as entertainment and do not want to make a profit.

Very few users were exceptional as the above mate, because even without expecting they do participate into gambling activities. Personally expecting a good return I used to spend my money on gambling. This becomes an addiction when users loss the control on them towards gambling.

I was also like this before when I first started with bitcoin where I gamble hard and lost a lot of money in the process - I don't have emotional control and bankroll descipline that is why by I finally decided to quit gambling. though.

That is the ideal way to look at when you start a session. Although afterwards, most will be going back for the profit and the entertainment just comes second.

But it is very difficult to keep thinking that gambling is an entertainment. Because when the entertainment can make you earn money then you will experience the desire to play again. This is the beginning of addiction, so do not ever try gambling if you do not want to get addicted. This is a game that is very risky, our life and our family will depend on the actions we do.

That is really good to gamble just for fun and do not go beyond betting with the amount that we cannot afford to lose.. we should not be guided with greed and aim gambling as our source of income because we are most likely be disappointed though.

Gambling is very addicting because it actives the Adrenalin hormone in your body and makes your body feel much better.
Also, when you lose money you will always once to return it back, and that's the point where you are getting into troubles, you are trying to return your lost money and you lose more money then you planned on losing.

The reason why you land up in trouble because as you said that once you loose you would like to return back happens to those people who consider gambling as a business of making money. This people do not gamble for relaxation, fun or enjoyment and this is the starting of the problem in their life as mostly they will become addictive to it and will lose money.

It's the dopamine that attaches to your receptors and make you feel good and you want to feel that again and definitely, it would require a lot more gambling to attain it again because, in the long run, you would lose. The house edge is pretty hardcore especially in casinos, they take advantage of everything so much that you won't realise that you are already gambling everything you own.

When you let emotions run your betting sessions, there is a big tendency that you are going to lose it all. There is really nothing wrong with casinos but their games are already programmed that they will going to win in the long run with the so called house edge advantage. Now, if you think and always remember this, you will not bet high.

There is house edge that will ensure you to lose in the long run. It doesnt mean that you cant win at all but you are most likely going to lose in the long term so dont even think of getting profit all the time and be rich from gambling site. . The pleasure of getting money is what makes it really addicting

It has all the element that can make somebody addicted to it. First, there's the promise of money as a reward. I mean, who does not like money? And when you win, that means, money for you. So people keep coming to gambling hoping to win them some money. Then there's also a since of excitement. It's like playing soccer, or basketball where shooting the ball rely on your luck and your skill. With that kind of excitement, people will look that kind of feeling, so they gamble again and again. and of course, it's a goods way to kill time if you're not doing anything.

Gambling is not addicting it self.
It is the money that is addicting to us. When we are winning a nice amount we think that it can make us rich but that is not true, Gambling at first gives us profit but in long run we will lose from it. Sometimes, When a person starts losing some money he/she thinks that after losing 5-6 bets he/she will then bets and they lose all of the money. But, they will still not stop gambling. They are addicted and they can get rid of it by locking there money and using few dollars on gambling you cannot lose your addiction at once you will need time.

money is attracting people to playing gambling and because of money, people is trying to win the games but sometime they don't realize that they can lose their money too. and for the money, people willing to continue playing gambling and soon people become to be addicting person in gambling. but if people can realize that playing gambling in long term can makes them to be addicted, then they must control their emotion to pursuit the money because in the end, they only making mistakes and makes them to lose their money.

Yes possible that we can win easily money is always too tempted, even is so hard to resist that we always end up with some even small bet on something.
Money will always be key factor in gambling as well as greed, and even despair to gain fast money (in reality lose money), this is something that been in motion for ages and most of the time we lose.

Gambling is so addicting because it gives you something for free and less effort. It gives you money and fun at the same time. When you gamble, you take the risk whether you are going to win or lose. Many analysis are put forward. You become addicted after winning, hoping that you will win again, and if you lose, you will start over, hoping that you will get the money you lost. That's why people need to know their limits.

Gambling becomes an addiction only for those who are seeking more and more money. people when lose their profits keep on trying again and again so that they could earn back their losses.
If you gamble by keeping some limits then it is really not harmful but if it has turned to addiction, then it is possible to lose all your savings just for the sake of some pennies.

i think everyone who are playing gambling has only intention to make money. i do not think that people will like to risk their money only for fun and enjoyment, because there are so many other cheep ways of getting fun and enjoyment where you do not need to risk your money. i think we only get fun from gambling if we are making money there, but if we are long money there or if we do not have invested money in gambling then gambling is useless and there is no fun and enjoyment in it.

That is for sure. Gambling makes us addict due to its zero effort required nature but I won't say it free because if you want to gamble, you must have some money to do it so or else you can't place bets. It's damn obvious, isn't it? Other than that, it fuels our greedy natures and we are tempted by dreams like we can become rich through gambling.

Greediness is just a part of a gambler's addiction and if getting rich is the motives I don't believe it's a certain visions to have, because gambling cannot be a reliable sources of riches. Maybe I can suggest to go to trading investments, maybe it's a good way to handle your money with a profitable means of returns in the future. If a gambler will remain to that perceptions, well the fault is in the person who handled himself towards addiction.

The simple reason must be the human nature. All human usually temp to all attractive things. The most entertaining thing which also provide the promise of getting rich in quick period must attract any common man which may end in addiction too.

Well said. Gambling becomes addiction just due to the fact that of it's easy money making method. We are looking for money making idea when it comes with the flavor of easy task then many people do not want to leave off it. That is the reason they are sticking with gambling and getting addiction to it.

In gambling this is the place where gambler thinking they can make a lot of money in easiest way here. But they are absolutely wrong, because gambling is pushing or input something to the mind of the player to depend on luck even they use skills it will be still majority depend on luck without hesitation even they know its too risky.

yes i do believe those people who come to play are mostly looking for easy money making. although at the first time they are looking for entertainment , there is a time where you will switch your purpose to making money in the end, why? because we live in the world where money can do anything.

becareful once you get in , you will struggling to leave. that is the definition of any addiction.
