Topic: Why is gambling so addicting? - page 375. (Read 233207 times)
Because you have the feeling you will gain money, because man is greedy. Just like playing the lottery
The ability to get rich quick!
I don't think gambling has the ability to make people rich quickly.It makes people poor quickly.
Indeed.
If there are people who get rich quick by gambling, i'm quite sure he/she will spend all their winning money back to gambling. And it is not a smart move.
I do not know are gambling make people not smart or something. But most of the addicted gambler looks like they really want give their hard earned money to gambling. And when they got lose, they just said they gambling for fun.
I missed something there
I do not know why people lie about that, but the best way is to put my btc in a wallet from where i can not easily spend?
In my opinion, gambling is so addictive because there are to many people that want to prove they are better than another. The person who walks away is the winner when it comes to gambling, but that does not happen often. There is always the chance that you will be that 1% that will win big and you want to go with that 1%. This is just my opinion.

Because of some quick money without any hard work just for pure luck so that is big reason for me to get addictive of gambling.
Gambling is addictive because it gives you a potential chance of earning money without doing anything. All you have to do is to win your bets. It is unlike a job where you have to work hard before getting paid.
Because every one want a easy money so easy to addict these games
The answer is simple: because people are delusional and think the money on the table will soon be in their pockets.

Actually the correct answer is more easy to lose money in gambling then making money but most people thinks in your way and go to gambling but surely most of them will lose money initially without knowing itself and later on they will go back to gambling to get back their lost money but at the end they will lose all money in gambling. People will addict to these games mostly to get back their already lost money
Quoted. This is very true.
Some people not really got addicted with gambling. They just keep playing because they have money (to get the money they lost before).
As long as they keep having money, they will try their "luck" again. So it is very "naive" thing in all gambler.
We just say: we playing for fun.
Which actually we say: "we playing to get some money, if we lose, we can get it back." and the losing streak start.

That strong urge to gamble that you often feel is one of two things:
- You want to recoup your losses, as meager or as ass-whoppingly large they are.
- You won last time, and it felt so good to make profit. Why not make that profit again? It wasn't that hard!
Well, both of these mindsets are quite financially "fatal". They urge you to gamble more, no matter what streak you're on. Good, bad, it doesn't matter. Greed is a natural instinct with all of us. Why not make that extra dollar? And even worse, with the house edge of most casinos, you're bound to lose, unless you're on a dice site and martingale your way around with a 1 satoshi base bet and a 10 bitcoin bankroll
I used to have a gambling addiction too, so I set up a proxy on my router and got my friend to take care of the login details for the proxy. I personally know alot of ways to get around it, but I have controlled myself.

Gambling is like drugs!! But it's funny playing for little satoshi sometimes.
Hard logic! "Gambling is like drugs!! But it's funny playing for little satoshi sometimes." - are you playing with little amounts of drugs for fun.. sometimes?

I don't think gambling is addictive itself, but the money and greed. When someone loses, he does not come back too quickly, but when someone win can not stop thinking about it and this pull him to further play.
It is is correct. Most people go to gambling by thinking they can make some quick bucks without much effort and also same time they can have a fun. But in reality gambling is not for making money but it is just for fun so who ever goes gambling for making money, if they lose money initially or make profit then game starts. If lose then they will go to gambling again to earn back their loses or if they win their mind thinks that it is very easy way to make more money so again they go back for gambling. This way slowly people will addict to gambling.
Gambling has a lot of entertaining with free money and this way to get more easy money make it more addictive and hard to give up.

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 
Why is it so addictive?
Why is it so addictive?
I it might be the emission of happiness hormons like serotonin when you are winning.
This kind of feeling is it that many people wnat to have as often as possible. For some it seems to be better than having sex.
And when you lose you try to force to get that feeling again.
Very dangerous! Set yourself a limit. When that is reached stop gambling!Discipline is what you need!
