If the first and the second time you gamble had made you won a lot of money, this can be somehow addicting and later you will realize you're into it already. Sometimes you'd loan money just to gamble and this is becaue its somehow addicting.

When you start winning, you would have the mentality of trying another one as you probably think you would win for another game and profit. The more you bet, the more likely you're going to lose. It's hardly possible for anyone to be satisfied with their winnings. It's difficult to stop without self control. The anticipation and suspense is too addicting.

First we play gambling for just time pass and for enjoyment. Then we see other people win in gambling and feeling very happy, so at that moment we feel greediness, and starts playing gambling with money etc, slowly slowly the gambling becomes addicted. After that once we get addicted with gambling we can't able to leave the activity of gambling.

we the greedy part which is the most addictive , you can see people winning on dice a targeted amount but they don't withdraw the profit they keep betting cause they feel that they can make more
and sometimes there is the fun part like poker were players have a great time just by playing the game no matter if they are having a winning or a losing session

Gambling is addictive because it seems shortest and quickest way to make lot of money.If this happens what happens almost to everyone at start you win few bets this encourages you to keep trying your luck.It is not only gambling but everything what you do for a longer period let you get addicted to that in the end.

And because this is about money. People easily got addicted to it. Like some lottery winners, I really sure, they will keep play lottery to "try" their luck again.

Is that addicted? The answer is yes.
There are no body can stop while they win. Stop in here is not stand for short period. But stop forever.
Greedy is one of factors why people keep playing gambling. Although they are lose.

I will say in these words when someone keep winning or loosing both provoke the player to keep playing to win more if he is winning or to recover as next hand can be winning hand and he will not only recover his losses but also will make some decent amount.this practice of playing repeatedly makes person addicted to gambling.

The simple reason must be the human nature. All human usually temp to all attractive things. The most entertaining thing which also provide the promise of getting rich in quick period must attract any common man which may end in addiction too.

Well said. Gambling becomes addiction just due to the fact that of it's easy money making method. We are looking for money making idea when it comes with the flavor of easy task then many people do not want to leave off it. That is the reason they are sticking with gambling and getting addiction to it.
The fact is he is not even winning at the end of the day.The entire human lure gimmick would make sense if he actually wins something that makes him wannn earn more.But according to the post he always ends up losing his money which is not a good said.I'm afraid he is going anywhere with all those "in human nature comments''.

There is a thread in this forum called "How to stay away from Gambling".You need to go through that thread because people will most likely suggest the same thing here.Why you even gamble when you have a confidence you will lose at the end of the day?

Damn you were right. This kind of thread actually not necessary posted in new thread. You just need to talk to yourself in front of a mirror "why gambling is so addicted?" Because easy money? Because easy way to make money? Or burn it all? And you will found the answer when you think over and over again that gambling actually is a bad thing that we have to stay away from , when you started get addicted.

Yes sticking with gambling even in the events of losses, makes people getting addicted. If people ignore gambling on the events of losses then the chances for getting addiction must be very much lesser. They believe in the gambling to make big fortune from it and getting addicted to it.

Risk and Reward are both things that get you exited and get your adrenaline going. They stop logical thinking and you need to stay on top of that. I sometimes consider betting a small amount on a gambling site but I can make myself stay away from it by saying

"Even if I win this 1 BTC bet, I will still have lost 0.01 BTC because that's how much the expected loss is. I might as well have flushed 0.01 BTC down the toilet."

To me gambling wins aren't even real money, 99% of people lose them again very quickly anyways. No matter whether you win or lose, the real amount you lost is the expected loss and in the long run your loss will always be the same as your expected loss.

I suppose one of the main reasons is the illusion of getting rich quick and when you do win you think next time if I put in a little bit more then you will win more.  It is an addiction that is hard to kick for sure.

Denial keeps problem gambling going. If friends and family are worried, listen to them carefully. Take a hard look at how gambling is affecting your life. It’s not a sign of weakness to ask for help. Many older gamblers are reluctant to reach out to their adult children if they've gambled away their inheritance. But it's never too late to make changes for the better.

People think that it's easy to make money without working from gambling, that's the thing which makes gambling so addictive "easiness". if you are unable to control yourself while you have btc sell them and withdraw the money in your bank account.
