Gambling is addicting to everyone, but there are a lot of people that can control themselves and that is quite nice for them so they are not losing that much money.
And there are also people that is addicted to it and they cant even stop and that is bad, because they think they can be rich or something.

important point is that he can control his emotions. if someone is really a great and experienced gamblers then he should be able to control himself. while he only won in a moment then certainly someday he will be a big loss. because he can not control every time the act.

Yup! it can be addicting to everyone but there are certain levels of addiction that has to be known and the most terrible and non bailable is compulsive gambling it is an impulse-control disorder. Compulsive gamblers can’t control the impulse to gamble, even when it’s hurting themselves or their loved ones.

You are still gambling because you want to capture the feeling of excitement all over again,when you are gambling you are very much alive your heart beats fast very fast and you are very ecstatic when you win,so you will come back again and again to capture those feelings and you don't care whether you win or lose..

Actually the excitement only comes up whenever you bet high amount unlike when you bet at low amount which makes you doenst feel anything. But I rather bet low amounts and earn little than betting high and end up losing everything.

You are wrong, whenever people have huge balance, they will slowly play it. And they never risk anything because they have a lot to cover their loss so after they win some they will stop playing it. Better to earn something rather than nothing at all. All in everything and you got nothing left that instant. This will be hard for everyone

Gambling is addicting because there are a lot of people that is still thinking that they can be rich because of gambling and that is not the best mindset that you can have.
If you are losing you should directly stop otherwise you are losing to much money and you can become poor.

It is so much true what you told but then also their are so many who use to gamble thinking that only, and i think it cannot be stopped , even knowing that anything can happen

Gambling is so addicting in my opinion, just because there is a chance that you can earn money. Also, it feels good to win, but losing feels pretty bad, so when you feel the feeling that you get when you win, you have the urge to win more.

Thats their main goal of going or playing gambling. To double, triple or even more their money. That thinking is the cause of addiction no matter how many times you lose.

The excitement of gambling is one the reasons why it is so addicting. Even though losing feels pretty bad, this triggers your mind to bet more and more until you become outrageous in hopes of getting your fortune back. When you're on rage you might as well bet all your money and that's when you go bankrupt. Wink

Gambling is so addicting because everyone likes it to do, you can play games as well and that is fun to do.
But it let you also think that you can earn some money with it but that is actually not true.

gambling games are better positioned as a hobby only, not to gamble positioned to be a serious job. if we could get the money from gambling so treat it all as a gift from our game.

If you guys are thinking gambling can be a "job", then you're partially wrong. Yes, you can get decent profit from gambling if you're pretty good at it. But when you get addicted to it, you'll eventually money. If you want a job, then go outside and apply to a decent company. Get a day job instead of thinking gambling is your job.

Just because you always win in gambling, doesn't mean it'll stay forever like that. You'll eventually lose your money together with all the profit that you had.

I'm wonder why people still want to gamble although they already know that gamble always make you loss.
Being greed ? or there are another factor like gene or environment ?

Being greed is sometimes lead you to became addicted to it.
Also if the environment of that man/woman is stress full and always has a problem. It lead them into gambling as another way of shutting out the world and to help them forget their problem for a short time.

yes, that's right and most of the people think that gambling is the shortcut to become rich and always hope to win more.
maybe that's the cause why is gambling so addicting.

well, i think you don't need to make a huge bet to have fun.
as long as you are taking risks and betting as much as you can, i mean the bet amount should be as big as you can afford with your pocket then it is still fun to play it.
you can take risk on your own bankroll by betting big percent of what you currently have.

"God Syndrome"

The thought of being the speical one, thinking yourself as a prophet or a god... Winning 10000000$ from a 1$ ticket, beating all the odds, beating the life itself, gaining the immortality. That is what gambling offers

Can't read the article right now, it says:

I refreshed it a lot of times but still it's giving that error.

Anyway, I think none of those are in the mind of a gambler. He doesn't think of himself being special or smth while playing. And since when did gambling offered "beating the life itself, gaining the immortality". Cheesy

Maybe some people think of themselves as a hustler in casino or that he's kind of special when it comes to gambling or smth but I'm pretty sure he's not thinking about "beating the life itself, gaining the immortality" Roll Eyes
