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!

I am also jealous of people that won hundreds of BTC on gambling sites.. so I always try to bet and see if I get lucky enough.. never happened.

the top winners is not always real, or maybe they actually are men of the houses. it happened on manga Kaiji, there is a gamble game, only 2 winners for 10 years, and those 2 winners actually are 2 top bosses of the casino. not sure if it happened in real world or not, but i believe there must be.

Yes we need to try to join those sites which do not scam us. Some sites will show you the real status but there are a number of sites which show fake usernames of the usernames of that who are the owners of the sites. Whenever you join a site try to search its reviews on google. In short if you join legit sites, then you will also earn.

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?

Well In my opinion and personal experience games that involve instant cash are all very addictive even if you lose to much the adrenaline in getting that instant cash that you want to get will still urge within you and you will be more addictive to it once you win once you feel that your body is finding the excitement in getting instant money again.
It's not just for winning ,but there are many people still gambling even after they have lost a significant amount of money/coins and are by far more than the winners who get back again.The addiction is cause of easy opportunity to something dynamic but is way to probable in reality.

I know it is not just by winning that is why I said Games that involves instant cash are all very addictive even if you lose to much, because gambling has an urge that you want to get that instant money from it, and you even loan or sell your things even if you lose all your loves ones that is being addictive to gambling!

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..

Its so addicting because its your own money in the game, Plus its sometimes very attractive.
Its risky to gamble but people get greedy of it.
You want to win so bad, and if you lose you think 1 more time again, its starts all over again.

Because you can play with money. People take pleasure in it.
They think you can win money. Therefore, they find it fun and addicting.

And you should also pity of people that lost hundreds of BTC on gambling sites and became broke. I also think those people who won hundreds of bitcoins were probably lost big amounts before hitting a jackpot Cheesy There are also people winning hundreds without losing a single satoshi, they are rare though.

Because you've been affected by gambling. gambling is the same as do drugs, if you've been using for sure you will always use and it can not be avoided before you feel the negative things from it. For example: you always have the feeling to always be a gamble, but you already know that once you gamble will make you lose and when you lose, you stop and once you have the funds inevitably you will gamble again.

Bottom line if you're addicted to gambling, you should make a good strategy to win your addiction in order to win big, if you're already winning try to divert about other things, such as Exchange, investment, Because it will also get the same addictions such as gambling. But the kencaduan have a positive impact

Don't get jealous by others wins, if you gamble like others you will only lose. those who win huge probably would gamble again and lose.(only smart ones withdraw their winnings and never gamble)

Yes, it must be a great idea to be smart, join gambling sites earn there with faucets and other ways they provide for free earnings of bitcoins, and then play with those money, if you are expert already with free games then you will probably get a huge profits. Then just withdraw your money. Withdrawing may prevent addictions.

When you see someone to bet and win, it does not mean that your bit will also give you a win. Try to learn about gambling. There require a tricky knowledge to earn at there . So first you play without betting your money so that you become expert at that games.

Gambling can be fun if you have guts and many capital so you can conqueror the gamble and make some insane profit.
But the matter is everybody's luck are different so we can predict our luck everytime

I really would go for the money.
People like money, people like free. To them gambling is like free money.
And thus they gamble to get free money which in fact is very unlikely.
I do not think that, more people are thinking of doubling his money

But I think people gambling for fun is very less compared to gambling for money. So most of the gamblers think they can make easy and free money so they will keep on try even after they lose lot of money in gambling. But in reality it is very hard to make money from gambling.

Gambling is so addicting, maybe it's because you can easily doubling your balance on gambling. and also when you lose, you always gamble more for get back you loses. it's make gambling so addicting.

Doubling or tripling your money easily in gambling is one of a kind towards your addiction but if you keep on aiming to recover your loss I dont think that is a good thing to do because most people will never have back their money after playing a lot like that. Only some people manage to get their loss
