Because humans are more interested in fun than work . As well as with gambling, most fun thing to do. Even when it has swallowed alot lose, our mind will continue to invite ourselves to gamble.

It's also human nature that makes us addict in gambling so even newbies can become addicted to it quickly. And the good thing is even you don't have money you can gamble with those casino's that offers free to play games or will allow you to use play money. But most of the time we are greedy which is the main reason.

Because it makes people happy when they won some money and it attack on people's greedy. They don't want to lost their money so they keep playing to win again.
Many people win big mney in gambling so they addicted too Grin

yes you are right gambling makes people happy when they win money and after that they think that like the previous winning they will always win like that and sometimes when they lose in gambling so they want to recover their lost money and due to which they become gambling addict, and also the main reason is that they cannot control their emotions to stop gambling.

I think there is an associated sense of happiness associated with gambling when one wins. On losses the stimulus for gambling increases even more. Although it seems contradictory but gambling only stimulates the brain to gamble more and not stop. That is what happens in real life - people are blinded by the advertisements and casino owners statements and dont think twice before gambling.

Yes it could be the reason why gambling is so addicting it is the emotions that we feel everytime we play. We feel happy on every winnin thats why we keep on coming back in gambling and it keep us focus on it, and then we doesnt know that we have been addicted we dont know it because we enjoyed the game and were happy about it.

Getting money is not going to get you addicted. People work , trade and do alot of other thing that could get them money but they are just doing it because they get money. It wont makes you addicted, in fact you are the only one that will get yourself addicted is when you think of nothing else and only want to think of that thing

For me, gambling is so addicting to people who always wants to stake or in people who wants to have fun through wagering his money. Maybe for them they get victorious feeling if they win and if they are lost they will find a way to bet again to get back how much money they lost in gambling. Some people take gambling as for fun and other is for a hobby. Gambling for fun is different from Gambling as a hobby. Gambling for fun is you do not take gambling seriously just like you gamble to kill your time while gambling as a hobby is you want to gambled everyday, or over and over again until you do not have a money in your pocket.
However, addicting in gambling is depends on people's mindset on how far will they get addicted in gambling.

The addiction comes not because you are winning but rather because you are losing and you cannot stop until
you get what you lose. It's common to people who gamble without enough money because they tend to spend money
that is out of budget already.

There is a particular rush that addictive can give. Pretty much like any cases of substance or alcohol abuse. It can boost one's feeling of morale, thrill and excitement.

This feelings though are pretty much the root of all these. Each form are intended to be a form of escape or a diversion to face the actual emotions we are trying to suppress.

Yes, there is a something that i can feel everytime i gambled. It boost my energy ang giving me a great mood. Gambling is a source of happiness for me, yes im addicted to gambling but i dont give all of my money to it , i am staying in my focus in the game. I believe thay gambling is good for our brain. It helps us to train ou mind in our game.

Because gambling is most fun activity to do when compared work, and it's humane. Only, gambling using money is potentially dangerous for a person's financial condition.

Can you explain how gambling is a "fun" activity? Apart from the thrill in playing and the excitement - there is nothing fun in losing a lot and becoming a beggar. Gambling is always associated with risk and loss. If a person is not willing to accept it then they may not play at all. Then it does not mean that the person has to get addicted to gambling because that is their own choice.

People are different, they have different likes and dislikes, if for you gambling is not fun at all then that is something that I respect but for some gambling can be extremely fun, I have heard people describing gambling as better than sex, which is somewhat odd, but if that is the way they feel then there is no use arguing with them about the subject.

You are right that people have preferences and their own like and dislikes. Because of this we do things differently and have different opinions about everything. Fact is that sex always goes before gambling - for me at least. Grin

In fact gambling too much will only ruin you sex life and often lead to unhappy marriages. Except those one or two jackpot winners in the background who will become really rich for it as well.

Because they believe they will have the luck to double their money quickly. But it depends on how much money you spend on gambling so you can make a lot of money instantly. So when people are affected and they have no control, they will continue to play and become addicting.

Not just because of thinking to win of being lucky, but this happens due to the easy earning access which one cannot get through the other earning source available. When people get random wins, they easily forget the losses and keep playing to get bigger earning causing them to get addicted.

well said, its the thinking that you can easy double or make a big earnings in an easy way and with that points of view people keep trying to play
not realizing that the numbers of their winnings is smaller than the actual numbers of their loses so just pretending that they are enjoying but in the deep sense they just losing and losing their money.

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.

Quote from: ?? on ??

We are attracted by gambling becasue we think we can easily earn huge amount of money in short period of time.
The most important thing is to know your limit and not ruin your life because of games.

Yeah, I think that is the only reason why most of the gamblers are addicted to gambling. The addiction because of the losses that they are experiencing every time they do gambling. The more money that they are losing in gambling the more addicted they become, and it is really hard to overcome this bad habit. We need to be dedicated in order to completely forget about this addiction to have a better life.

to me people are addicted to gambling because of the expectation that we have from gambling. when people become disappointed from finding job and other places, they come to play gambling because gambling do not require any experience or education you just need to learn how to play and you can learn that with in few days and then can make money from gambling, but when we lose money from gambling we are not ready to accept the result and still expecting good result from gambling for next time and so we become addicted.

in fact everyone want to make more money in short period of time. and therefore they have choosen gambling where there are more chances to become millionaire in a single day, but we halo have to accept the fact that gambling is also one of the most risky way of making money, and there are more chances that you will even lose your own money in gambling, but still people do not accept that reality and still they consider gambling the best way of making money in short period of time.

that what makes it so popular, being something addictive that people can not just leave even after losing money multiple times, again trying their luck and waiting for even more money than that lost. the attraction is the big possibility of getting prices equal multiple times the played amount which is impossible elsewhere.

That's by choice if you choose to be addictive and stay away from gambling yes maybe people are attracting to gambling because of its the needs of the money thinking the way best to get money is from playing gambling but they sisnt know the only winner there is the gambling itself either you win or loae gambling is all about luck.

The games are very exciting and if you are lucky enough, you can win a decent amount from it.
Gamblers will always say that gambling is a good way to earn that makes them addicted.
Just moderate yourself when you gamble so that you are aware of it.

Gambling is indeed a good way to earn some decent income but the addiction comes from the individual's appetite to recover losses and that's the dead end which could cause you so many problems.

I don't think it is "indeed a good way to earn" it's just a wrong way of thinking of many gamblers.
That is being offered by the gambling sites and that's why many are starting to become addict with that way of winning.
I just gamble for sometime and that's only for fun.

Because gambling is a fun activity. Even if it has been peppered with money, will be very visible pleasure in it. And people began to get lulled when they had seen money grow when win, and became emotional when he lost.

Not just it's fun but there's a lot of factors that make gambling is an addicting activity. The pleasure, the money, the satisfaction it's like a package that you'll get when you started to gamble.

Theres an excitement in playing gambling but being practical is what we need ,we need to save now unless we were rich enough ti lose it.

So you will mostly wait and become rich and gamble out your money? That's why there are a lot of rich gambling addicts they don't have an idea on how they will spend their money or riches into something. And they chose to gamble which is a better choice unlike other wealthy people that are falling into a bad decision.
