Why is it so addictive?

Gambling is really addictive because when you won a big prize money you really get addictive and you still want to play. So the result is you want to double your money and you are starting to get addicted to gambling. So if you want not to get addicted to gambling don't try to gamble.

we have too much expectation from bitcoin which make us addicted to gambling, even after losing we do accept the lost and try to convinced ourselves to play again but for every time we and for every time we do not accept the lost which make us addicted to gambling.

The possibility of easy money does not allow many to quit gambling and causes a very serious dependence, as from drugs. You need to learn to control yourself or not to start at all.

Mostly it is people who are poor and wish to become rich, but are too lazy to work anywhere or learn some thing or utilize their skills to earn money. Everyone wants to look for the easy way out. But then they try it out just to see that it lead to more losses. Then they try to win back whatever money they lose. But that never happens and the losses keep getting accumulated. Once they are in big debt they become anti-social and its game over.

Yeah, those people tends to hook up in gambling thinking that they will gain something from it. Gambling is a very tricky game, in fact, I think this game will let you win just to give you an encouragement to play again and hope that you will win big someday. People who use gambling to earn money easily will never succeed in anything, if they won’t realize that this game is just using them then they will put not just themselves but also their family in danger.

Gambling is very addicting but getting addicted to it does not giveany benefit. There are more chances of losing than winning in the gambling.

More chances of lossing is not profitable, so why drown yourself on it you must wake up and renew your life and have self control. Don't let gambling control your life but rather have control of yourself and don't let that certain thing make you addicted. There is always a future for good reasons as long as you're willing to do it for good.

Why is it so addictive?

Addicting in gambling is like addicting in drugs. Gambling is so addicting because you are seeking to win in the game, you quit for a while but you are hoping to win next time after you lose. You're addicting iun gambling became your habit, habit that you can bet all of your money to win.

If I were you, learn to control on how you spend your money in gambling before it can be a big problem in your life.

Why is it so addictive?

The number one reason is because of greediness. Of course as a gambler, you don't want to end the game when you lose. You always aim to quit gambling once you have won. However, if you didn't meet your expectation, addiiction could trigger which is not good as a player.

I agree, because once you start to play gambling and at the beginning you already aim for the prize but you lose the game, you will have a trigger to play again because you really want to win, sometimes that will be the start of losing money because we have no assurance in winning in gambling.

Yes its true that one cannot assure you that you will win a big prize. You may try a hundred times and gain a negative profit but some other lucky dude can just win the jackpot in their first bet. It all depends on luck and that luck is hard to foresee - in fact it is impossible to foresee. Hence one must not play EV- games too much where the odds are against them.

I agree with you mate that the game of luck is really hard to win most especially in gambling because the odds are really against you multiple times. If it involves lots of money, then it is not wise to do so but if you are only using a portion of your money that you can afford to lose then that is perfectly fine.

Gambling is so addicting because everyone wants to win and expect winning. Most of gamblers become addicting because they know they will win and dream of become rich when they lucky in jackpot. Gambling is addicting becomes once they win they attracted in a big price. In gambling there always an opportunity and earn money instant. Most gamblers try their best to gamble even if lose always and never give up to bet and believe can win a jackpot. Most people wants gamble because gambling gives enjoyment this is the reason why gambling is addicting. Gambling is so addicting because people love to make money and love to win.

The jackpot prize sometime is the main reasons why people wants to gamble, if the prize is really convincing for sure a lot of people would love to try to play gambling, so the ending, you will get addicted even if you are not winning at all because of the excitement and the entertainment that gives gambling game to you.

This is not really surprising, how many people buy a lottery ticket thinking they are going to become rich, when the chances of that happening are extremely low and when you warn them about it you get the usual response that someone wins the lottery everyday, it seems many people are unable to understand basic odds and probabilities.

I dont think that every people come to play because of easy money. I play not because of easy money but because I am having fun, some people like to get easy money but for me it is not easy to win so the only possible thing for me is to play for fun. Alot of people dont believe in this but I am having fun in gambling

I am like you, I don't consider gambling like a source of profit, It's just for fun for me. I don't like to waste my money and risked with a high

amount in it. Personally, I don't have luck when we talk about gambling, so gambling for fun is the best way for me to feel to good.

Yes! They're working so many factors. I personally hardly believe that you yourself only culprit what is going on and you can't relief this addiction until you change your livelihood.

Even you will tell it to the addicted gamblers then will have hard time to understand it. And instead of stopping and realizing they are totally addict in gambling. That's also a thing in gambling, when you started to become addicted, it will make you more addicted and you will be tied up to it. That leads to main reason why everyone can't get out of it.

That's because they are so dependent on gambling that they forgot who they are and they are probably out of their minds because all they think about is the chance of winning the jackpot, and that's not going to work.

It's really happening and this the true nature in gambling, they almost forgetting who they are because of their personal interest and goal in gambling. It's the sad fact that there are people who are thinking about hitting the jackpot or raking any good amount everyday but it's ending up like a disaster.

I think that people will not end up addicted if they don't expect great chances of that kind of lucky dreams to have in gambling like jackpot or lucky big amount to win. Aggressiveness of betting the games is the main reasons that resulted to addiction from gambling and without self control, you really fall into trap of being binded to extreme problems.

It's the nature in gambling, and why in the first place you are gambling? You have read good feed backs that many did became rich because of it or you just want to try it out. And why you will become aggressive in the first place too? It's because you are aiming something that you think it's possible in gambling.

I also ask that question for the people why we think to become rich only for gambling?
Because it is a first step to become addicted, and continuously playing gambling then the day is not far when we become addicted. I am sure you are right because why we concentrate and feel aggressive only for gambling? If gambling is not in our mind and we play it like a gamer than i don't think that gambling is so addictive.

Many reasons for it like not easy in choosing an investment or they play gambling because they want to get fast money without having to think. We can be addicted to gambling because there is the money we can get from gambling. I think it's very hard to you avoid not being addicted to gambling if you've known gambling.

Many people become addicted to gambling for some reason and they do not notice and know that they will be addicted to gambling because they want to win and this is what they want. Gambling is an opportunity to make money instantly and easily because they do gambling habits that will become addicted.

You are right, many people get addicted to gambling because it is an opportunity to earn money easily. Example is, betting games, you just have to bet an amount and let the game do its job. If you are lucky, you will win big amount which is a big encouragement for many gamblers to play again and again. But getting addicted to gambling is very dangerous, it has been proven that the addiction destroys mental health and causes thinking difficulties.

Playing gambling is very exciting but we have to keep in mind that playing too much will not do any good for us.

Gambling always gives hope for the possibility of an easy way to get a lot of money and not everyone can resist this temptation.

The hope is there and they will also try to show every possible way that the hope is true but it is actually half-true since the chance is very low and the people dont reason it out and start playing indiscriminately. That is the reason why people will get addicted to it. Maybe one can win big once or maybe twice but then that does not mean that every time they play they would win. Rather it is mostly the opposite and you may just lose all your money there.

I can relate to this when I was still pretty active gambler to one of the online casinos before - on the chat box, there are many people that share their strategies and let you try it because it worked for them but before you know it, you are again encountered many loses.

That because every people have different luck on different days we can't say we'll win because other people did. As we knew before gamble was a game based on your luck but there's a few games you could use your strategy to increase your win chance and of course it would spent a bit time to think about your strategy/analysis. It made some people got lazy to think their strategy and at the end they only used their luck or probably instinct.

Sometimes using your luck will help you to win in most cases but if you are an experienced gambler you would use your (luck + experience + analysis) to totally win more bet than using only your luck. Gambling without a plan is a total failure, you might win once or twice but you will lose more than you win.
