Because you want to get back the coins you lost... I was "addicted" too, but I just simply stopped and said bye to my lost coins Smiley

I today was having a chat with a agent of a live betting site, and they told me themselves that you should do it as a fun and entertaining thing.

Obviously and there is a saying in gambling.. never bet what u cannot afford to lose. keep it for fun

I just started recently but I see myself being addicted to gambling.
We will start addicted once we won. We will continue betting again, and again till we lose. But, need to think wisely, or else you can lose a lot. Trust me, gambling will make you lose more than ypur winning.

the thrill of the win also maybe the thrills from just gambling money and getting your heart racing.
the thrill of victory for every your bet, it was great fun, I think addicts are also thinking about it, it's hard for them to turn ou

that kind of person is an adrenaline junkie, which means someone who seek out and craves thrilling adventures and/or activities to get an adrenaline rush. i think that's the reason why there are people getting addicted to such risky activities like gambling

Even when I win, I have double of what I went in with but end up gambling more.
It is bothersome thing if you ask me.
I would think it is the lure of the win and not all the time about the money, unless there is a lot at stake.

in my opinion the main reason is the fact that it makes people think that its actually possible to win a lot of money in a very short period of time, it makes people want to try again and again

For me it is highly addictive because it is fun. Besides the adrenalin rush it gives you greatly contributes to this addiction.
You just described probably every hobby activities and entertainment methods.
For example recent research shows that the most common type of addiction is smartphone and social network addiction, and if far more widespreaded than gambling will ever be.

But that smartphone hobby isnt destroying you money, it just makes you dizzy and lazy. But I still think gambling is the most dangerous ddiction I have ever seen.
I've seen people who wasted thousands of dollars on games like Clash of Clans or Candy Crush Saga just to buy virtual items for it, it is very similar to gambling imo.
Gambling addiction may ruin your wallet but drugs addiction will ruin your body as well - it is far more dangerous.
For me its better to addicted on gambling than addicted in drugs because you will be crazy or you will be die fast and also if you are addicted in drugs i think you can kill anybody without fear because of drugs.

sadly to say, smartphone can be a very dangerous tool. i have seen students so addicted to their phone that they cant study properly and they cant focus at all without touching the phone for 5min.
