Gambling is addicted because people are playing with money, they get blind.
People lose a lot but its always a risky game of course.
If they lose they think they can win it back and that's wrong to think.

A friend of mine is badly addicted, so I tried to take a interview of him and tried to find why he feels so addicted, basically what i mainly see a reason behind that is " because I cant control myself when I see a sports getting started "
yeah
such as when the weekend arrives. all gambling addicts are very fierce that time. they bet all the money for profit,
just like me, when the weekend arrives, somehow, I automatically see table lists the teams that will compete then I'm betting

A friend of mine is badly addicted, so I tried to take a interview of him and tried to find why he feels so addicted, basically what i mainly see a reason behind that is " because I cant control myself when I see a sports getting started "

So he is betting on sport and not really gambling in gambling sites but like every other gambling sport betting is gambling too, I think in every sports game he would like to inform every that they would bet on the current game happening well I think that is just the way he likes to bet and atl least he's not addicted to gambling sites

It's not bad as long as he doesn't spend a lot of money. Treat it like a hobby, take 5% of your monthly income and use it to gamble and you'll be fine Wink

Betting in sports gambling is also addictive but if you dont get greedy then you can earn very good in this game, because most of the time in cricket both the teams give chances of higher odds means each team comes favrite that time you should lay both and safe it the loss, but most of the gamblers just bet on one team and they dont safe the loss.

gambling is not in any sports game, a lot of gambling in other respects. gambling is very destructive of human mental because it can cause dependence

I think that gambling is addictive because people there to have fun playing it.
Later they will regret that they have spent too much money.

And then they quit. It just goes to the game and little about the money.

It's just wanting to know what will happen next, there are experiments with animals and the neurological mechanism is exactly the same, we always expect a different output that will be positive for us.

I can recommend you another game: chopcoin.io, this is way better since you use your coordination skills instead of dicing or spinning all day.

If trading crypto is a form of gambling Im afraid we are all hooked already. Grin
I think trading is not gambling, you need skills to be able to win, not luck

Nope you are wrong, trading is part of gambling too because you set on what price you will buy and sell so without gambling that the price is going up or down you wont even get good profit. There is no need skill to get profit in trading because it just the same as sportbetting you need to gather more information which is strengthen your chance to get into that price so overall trading is also part of gambling which use different method

how to gather info is a skill, even a united of multiple skills. it can be consider a subject, a job.

in my experience why gambliing so addicting,,
its because gamble is the simple way to doubling your bitcoin, but with high risk to lose all your btc
many people who want it. double bitcoin
whereas it is only the packaging alone, he did not see it that so many risks

Yup! gambling is too risky even if it does, many are going bananas with it! not to mention the freebies it has to offer and sometimes gambling site has a faucet to play that gives free btc so even if gambling is too risky there is still chance that you can take away instant money from it!

when they know the risk, it is better not to take the risk

Good. But some of us dont think that way. If your mind is focused on getting some money in the fastest way possible, then this is it. You wont even think about the risk. Sometimes we just close our eyes and hope that when we open it we are a winner.

yes and once they lose few times.. they get frustrated and want to win it all back from one single bet.. but that never ever happens... thye just lose and off they go begging

Yup and when they beg they will try to loan or borrow to someone, that is when addiction kicks off and human emotion is really something sometimes when a person is stress they tend to play gambling because that is their stress reliever sometimes it can also cause addiction and addiction needs proper care and rehabilitation is needed with this!

well i second what you said... the hope of wining easy cash... for eg. given the odds 1:5    .... so even if thr is 5% chance of winning.. betting 1 btc and getting 5 btc... people will gamble..

Yup dude even if the odds or the favor of luck is in you gambling is still gambling and addiction to it is real and can attain to ones self. Like every one says about gambling it is fun even if you lose, the way people think the odds of winning is still there even if it is shallow!

yes and once they lose few times.. they get frustrated and want to win it all back from one single bet.. but that never ever happens... thye just lose and off they go begging
