Gambling is so addicting because people like it to do. Many people think that they can be rich with gambling.
But the most people lose more money then they win money. They are poor in just a time and they realize it later that they lose a lot of money.

That's true,, in hoping to get rich, they try to risk in gambling and then lost it all, they would repeat it again and again not knowing that little by little their one foot is buried already in debts and in gambling addiction..   Smiley

Gambling is so addicted because people can win money and people make profit, some people think they can make also profit but they won't.
If they lose they want to make money to cover there losses they have made because of the gambling.

Well, gambling is addicting once you win big and you win consecutively. But once you taste defeat and get nothing out of gambling, you will feel that all of it are wrong and you should've just saved that money instead of depositing it in a gambling site.
That was true, i believe most people who get addicted in gambling they had big win previously.
They think gamble should ended with a winning so they will try and try again to chase that big winning again which it is called a "greed".


i dont think it is true most are expecting to get some big win i know lot of people that place 1eur on football ticket and play 6-8 matches and hopping to get around 200 eur
this is bad cuz i wont win this much cuz its hard to guest on single ticket that many matches

in the online gambling sites, will only enrich the site owner. However, sometimes there are online gambling sites that could benefit us
If I recall correctly, there ain't online or offline casino that can benefit you or anyone. Is there?
Well, there is one gambling-based faucet that favor its player, iirc. You lose nothing because you are only allowed to play with faucet money, iirc. It's not really gambling, IMO...

If you are playing player vs player games, I guess you could benefit from other players losses if you have skill; these games are without a house edge. Unfortunately, there aren't very many PvP games due to the fear of bots and a lack of active players.

It depends on win/lose we make they(the owner) rich or not, then back again how much you earn from gamble.


The only person that consistently gets rich from gambling is the owner of a successful casino, everyone else that gets rich off gambling has a lot of luck, because long term most people are going to lose if they keep gambling with big amounts of money. But as I do this all for fun, im not really worried about how rich I get, I have other better means of income than gambling.

Gambling is very addicting because its fun to play and also enjoying, some people forget they are playing with money.
Plus you also got the people that want to win their money back because they want to make profit.

Well you need to know that playing with money is very difficult and very frustrating if you lose your money but if you really like to profit keep on playing maybe your lucky this day if you play

but it would be worse if you continue to play and just wait for luck. at least you have a strategy and a good knowledge if you bet on sport gambling.

Gambling is addictive because you get a high from winning large sums of money. It is taught in basic Psychology classes that reward = repeated behavior, and that's how people get trapped.

that's a nice lesson of psychology, i think it's right, but not enough to explain all case of gambling addiction. ppl still become addict when never win big before.

Yes, right. if you ever win big you will remain addicted, and if you never win big you will be addicted. all really depends on us how to control not to be greedy.

i agree because i experienced it myself.
when i win i become happy and keep on gambling to win again like an addict.
and when i lose i get mad and keep on gambling to win and negate all those losses like an addict.
that is the mentality.

Gambling is so addicting because people see gambling as a game. They think you can be rich from it but that is not true.
But they realize later that they lose a lot of money with gambling. And if they realize it is actually to later.

That usually makes people become bankrupt and out of money, they always win and be drawn into the world of gambling deeper. victory blinded them that gambling could be something interesting and can make money

Gambling is always addictive. Some people cant stop gamble. And the smart people can say to themself that they can stop gambling.
But I think the best option is that you must find a hobby or do something fun with your family. 

That could not be anymore wrong. I have gambled in the past and I am not addcited to gambling? Some people cannot stop because they do not want to and most probably have addictive personalities and become addicted to almost anything, gambling included.
