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 think every gambler feel that too man. Always want back to gambling and want win back their loses by gambling more later. but you will get more loses.

That's right, every gambler think that the next time will replace his previous loses and win big amount of bitcoins, but in fact most likely he will lose again his hard earned coins.

Yeah, the hope to recover his/her lost money back by playing again stick them to the game and due to this they never leave to gamble again at that place where tey have lost again and again.

It is the joy and excitement when you are winning. On the contrary it is the will to get it back when you are losing. Grin

That is why gambling cannot be stopped by others.

yes, those who win wants more and those who were busted wants gain....but some gamblers are not too much in need of money to ge a profit from gambling...probably its just the excitement, and thrill, or maybe some are just killing their time and maybe they are "bored" with less things to do in their life..

You've done the same habits every time. namely gambling. so you'll feel less if you do not gamble
The same when you're in love with someone

You are right when a hope of winning and entertainment combines together then none of any person leave it and it become addiction. But sometime the game without of money also become addictive.

Gambling is so addicting because you get that feeling when you win a lot of money, its a great feeling and you want this again and again.
And its also that its very enjoying in my opinion.

it's just a part of it's nature as gambling and the feelings and excitement the person, I don't think there is particular reason but if you want a biological reason then you should just google it, There are tons of possible ways both physically and mentally for gambling to be addicting IMO.

Why is it so addictive?

The euphoria that it gives the brain when you win. It's something that you crave. The feeling of winning. Or the chance of winning. I mean just imagining yourself winning a very huge amount gives you enough stimulus to gamble, Gamble everything at some point for a small chance of winning.

Yes they think that you can win indeed. But you lose always more money and that is very bad. They must know that gambling is very bad to do.
And of course it is fun to do. But you need to have borders for yourself. Otherwise you will get poor and that is not good.

Yes, if someone want to play it then he do not have to spend/invest all of his/her money in gambling but a fraction of it. So he will never ever remain poor of money and will have some money to spend his/her life.

Gambling is addictive because gamblers don't lmose their dreams to get rich fast through playing with their coins, even if they lose many times.

I get a nice high with the possibility of winning Cheesy

Keep it up if that's what you are feeling well who knows you might ending up big you will not know unless you try but gambling is risky better be careful in wasting money that much.

once one gets addicted to gamble, win big won't stop them keep playing more and more, endlessly till they lose. he didn't say anything about addiction but i think he was explaining his reason for his gambling addiction.

I think we had the same opinion regarding this addiction in gambling is certainly the urge in playing even if they keep on losing but his addiction comes from his winning he gets addicted through winning a lot.

The more risk people take the more they can earn through gambling,some people still enjoy gambling even though they lost so much.
The enjoyment that they feel about gambling makes them addicted to it.

on the contrary many people thought gambling in long term will result you more lost than your winning.
in this lost phase usually addicting come to your mind, tell you to keep playing until you get back all your lost money which it's wrong action.

Actually both of you are right about gambling, it is risky, addicting, and most people are enjoying it, but I see gambling in a different way gambling certainly is profitable for me in my point of view sometimes I feel sorry about my self that I am losing much but sometimes it can make you profitable.

sometimes losing much and sometimes profitable, sound like your money just stays the same over time and all you did is just losing your time.

this is so true , if we think about it repeatedly all we have done so far just wasting our precious time Sad

.
all back to previous bankroll even negative , lets says we won 1 btc this month , lost 2 btc in next month 1-2 = -1 btc, and won again 1 btc , 1-1 = 0 this circle keep turning around. more likely a loan for me Sad

I think if they try to gamble the first time then lost I'm sure they will be cured and will not try again.
they become addicted for the first time gambling they win and make a profit. then they are interested in laneways gets hit again

Are you sure they get addicted the first time they try out gambling? maybe there is but, I think there are certain people who's not gonna be addicted to gambling even if they win continuously, they can control and can stop gambling anytime they want to.

gambling is different from drugs, you don't get hooked on so get addicted in the first try

it is the winning thrill that makes people addicted but not everybody, it is just the weak and those who live in dream land and want to get rich through gambling.

The aim and hope to win at this time make people more and more addictive towards it, and so the winner and loser both do not leave it . The winner play because he know he will win and the loser tries to recover his lost money.

Many people like it to do. And they think that you can earn some fast and easy money, but that is not true.
You always lose more money than you win money and that is the problem. To win money you have to be lucky.

But there are certain people that are earning with it but it is not easy because gambling is very risky, yes you will need luck but in a long term of playing gambling I think you can earn a bit but not that much, gambling in moderation and control yourself in betting is needed.

Most think that you can earn some good money with it. But that is not true. They also think that you can also earn fast money.
But they dont realize that you always lose more money than you win money and that is the problem.
