I think it really depends on one's psyche! I don't bet much because I know I will never get rich with it but at least I try to study and collect data to win as much as I can, and so far it works. 30$ per week is what I bet: sometimes I lose them all sometimes I double or triple them. Luck plays the best part, you know.

Right dear...
Luck is the most important thing we need in gambling, else one should never gamble...
It ain't addicting, we get addicted on our consent to it...
We just love watching those big odds that we see on those gambling sites that we once used to make some good amounts, but now not working for us...
Then one should definitely know that he should stop watching it, try something else or don't try at all, as maybe his luck ain't be good during such time...
Sometimes luck speaks very clearly to us especially when it says 'it's over now, get out' but we often tend not to listen. I agree with what you said though I believe anyone has his kind of addiction. Gambling gets us in different ways

It's like good movie or book, you just like to do it, it is fun when you win, so you keep doing that again and again

That's true and it also depends on human nature that how he views it, first you gamble for fun, but luckily you win, and you keep on trying to multiply your wealth and that time it becomes an addiction.
or you lose and you want to recover the loss and you start to lose all you btc and you keep trying :p and then you realize that you lost all you money

You don't watch the same movie again and again.
Plus, you can't lose your fortune while watching movies.
It is a wee bit different.  Smiley

gambling is all about the thrill whether you are going to win or lose and that is why it is so addicting. but this also is a big problem because you won't always win, there is going to be losing too which will leave you poor.

I think an individual is going to be afraid to gamble if there is much thrill on it, because not all gamblers have the same taste towards gambling there will be always someone who will not be addicted to it, it depends on personality, and I think there is and personality issue with the one who are addicted with gambling.

Gambling is addicting because of the greed of wanting more and more. It's never going to be good enough.
You will be needing money until the day that you die. The amount of money is never going to be enough for all the things that you want, unless you're a millionaire, then you have it all.

Even if you are millionaire, you would still be greedy enough to make another millionaire. If you don't want to lose your money, you should not be greedy in gambling and use money that you can afford to lose to bet.

Yup millionaires will always have an urge to have more money humans cannot be satisfied with there million and will still want some more of it, and that is the sin of all people for wanting more money and not satisfied with what they have.

So easy to get profit => addicting
So easy to lost money => want to recovery its => addicting

It is not easy to make profits in gambling, it is only easy to lose money.  Tongue

it's still one of the reasons for gamble addiction. ppl have strong believe in it. he was just try to express his thought as simple as possible.

Yup and a simple understanding is needed with just that and still many people believed they will profit with just gambling just of the little percentage with the house edge they will go with it, and gambling site have a free btc so lots of gambler with partake even with just small amount from it.

because you can make a lot of money in it what means that it hooks you and you can not avoid playing
gambling addiction can lead to a criminal act, where I come from has a lot going on like that. if you can avoid gambling due to the weak economy it is very dangerous.
It is true in my county, there is someone to steal money just to gamble, all he had has been sold, and he's really a gambler acute. addict will only think about how he would play, even though doing criminal

Most addictions can lead to criminal behaviour its not only gambling. And the weak economy has nothing to do with it. Even in a good economy a gambling addiction is also considered bad.

Maybe it's because gambling can make money fast and easy by gambling but the problem is you can also lose your money easily. high risk and high return, so gambling wisely and don't be greedy.

Yup I highly agree with that and don't waste much time in gambling alone that is the most problem with gamblers they will play and they will not know that time has past with just gambling, try to earn in other methods in increasing your bitcoin other that gambling that is too risky!

i think they can join ponzi site for other ways, but This depends on the tastes and interests

Ponzi is just gambling where the house can decide to cheat at any point in time.  Tongue
