Gambling is very addicting and its because of many reason that are mentioned here but this reason all together are the answer from this thread.
The fact is that every person has his own reason why he is addicting, well some have the same but there are always differences.
Addicting is in most cases caused by enjoying this is not only at gambling.

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 it's the same with any addiction. Gambling has the ability to active our physiological reward system, so you want to gamble, because you get a good feeling when you win, and your brain keeps telling you to try to experience that again.

Yes its the enjoying feeling and winning feeling that makes people get addicted, also they are thinking they can win a lot of money in a short time period.
Of course this is not true but the most people want to try it and if they do and play it for a while they will get addicted because they are enjoying it.

Why is it so addictive?

i know why you do that, you're like everyone else, after losing your money you want to win your lost money back, so you gamble again and again,

it is addictive because you can win easy money pretty fast, so after few tries you will want to play more

And that is the part where your going to be very addictive to it, I think that if you gamble you will need to not try and get back what is lost with gambling because you can never get it back that easily you will need patient and a lot of luck in it.
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.

It is so addicting because you have the possibility to double your money with just one click.
And who doesn't want more money?

Indeed, gambling is so addicting because of the fact its easy money you can earn and its also enjoying in my opinion.
Its also that stopping is so hard because you want to win the amount back you have lost, been there many times...

because gambling is easy to make money instantly, so people addicted to become rich in a short time from gambling,.
Yes everyone is addicted to instant gratification, that's what everyone is doing in this society, just wanting to get a lot of money really quick out of luck.

Don't get me wrong, to make al to of money you must need luck, but luck is not everything, you gotta put some effort, otherwise its just a gamble, and thats why some people are addicted to it.

the thrill of winning releasing endorphins, that's where  the rush feeling you get when you win comes from, only gamble what you can afford to lose ..........is a saying for a reason
I often say that difficult for someone not become addicted after they play gambling games for some time. because I'm sure they must have experienced victory. The victory was the one who made them racing to get it again (addicting). because the victory made our hearts to be very happy. inconceivable that

That's probably part of it's nature as gambling, addicting and the desire to use it more and the adrenaline etc... is the addictive part of it mostly...

I think they get addicted due to the fact from different reasons all together, they enjoying it and its also the fact they are playing it to make profit.
And if they have lost they want to win their losses back, so they stay playing over and over.
but to regain the loss was not easy, it takes time to get it.

don't believe it, don't believe that you can regain your loss when you spend enough time for it. you hope it happen but hope can't change reality.

Many people see it as a game and that is. But they must know that it is very bad for your money and it is only fun to do.
And you must be lucky. And many people think that they can win but that is not true.

Of course you can win. The control is the issue here. People that are addicted cannot control it anymore. They win a lot but they want some more. That is greed my friend and that is the bad thing. Risk will always be there including the trading style.

Yup! a lot playing gambling need money so they play for instant cash but some are playing just for fun and doesn't really need money that will be the rich one's they will use much money to play gambling, and the less fortunate one should gambling at least just a small amount they have.

I think they get addicted due to the fact from different reasons all together, they enjoying it and its also the fact they are playing it to make profit.
And if they have lost they want to win their losses back, so they stay playing over and over.
I think only a few people who are too greed to restore their losses. more people become addicts because they already enjoy with gambling they are already familiar with the habit of gambling. so if they are not gambling that feels less, you know
that's what I felt a few years ago

Indeed, they get addicted to it because its very enjoying and fun to play for hours after each other but they forget about the money they are betting with it.
So they will at the end see it but they cannot stop because they are already so far away..
