No, gambling doesn't offer us to become rich, we are just too assuming that we are going to make our riches with gambling because we can see that there are some people that became successful with it. And that is making us want to earn fast money and that is possible with gambling but with a high risk involved.

It offers you to be rich however I dont think that it is for everybody therefore I switched into for fun mode. Most of the time  I lose when I play even when it is for fun however it is not as stressful as playing to be rich. Some people are meant to be rich from gambling however some are not therefore only treat it as entertainment


No, we are the ones that thinks that gambling is offering us to be rich. It's either we are inspired with the story of those gamblers that had a good life because of it. But we really can't identify what is the main reason of other gamblers that are addicted in it. Because gambling makes more people addicted day by day, it's already a normal thing.

I always put a job based on my hobbies and interests to be consistent and not at all at first didn't think of advantages. Gambling is the same as it was. if we position just as a hobby or just want to speculate, will come much defeat for them, but if if from the beginning we thought totality, then all gambling technique will be mastered and produce consistent profits.

You are different from other gamblers or should I say that a type of gambler like you is very few. There are people that are treating gambling as their main job and they aren't just gambling for fun. And that is a natural way of making them addicted in gambling because it's on their nature.
There are people who are really lucky that they make it their source of income. Well, if you are going treat gambling as a source of income, you better prepare a lot of money because it might cause your bankruptcy but you need the experience.

I know those people that are treating gambling as their source of income. Most of them are already rich enough and they don't need to work hard for their living, that is why they are just enjoying their lives while making money as they gamble and treats it as their main source of income and when they nail some big amount, they keep on coming back.

In the end, we figure out that gambling is very addictive because it's a normal characteristic of it. On how the game works, on how it is giving excitement, chance of winning and everything about it. And it is our weakness, it's our nature to get into money and thinking about on how we are going to earn and we think that gambling will be the solution.
I agree with that. Humans tend to always want to have something of a benefit that's going to be for the betterment of our own. It's just that we are sometimes selfish or all the time. It's not healthy to be like that because someday it might bite you in the ass in the future.
this happens because human desires always follow, as well as animals, they like it. but, that distinguishes man from animals that humans could cope with and control his lust while animals do not.
people addicted to gambling is an example of a man who can not control his lust, they are greedy to want to continue to benefit for himself. that's all they think about.

Gambling is addictive because of curiosity and for entertainment too. There is an urge for you to keep on trying to win so you can gain more and then you end up losing more. But mostly for those gamblers they actually play for fun and don't really think about the loss. But that's the thing about gambling, we shouldn't expect a large profit from playing because it wasn't a gamble in the first place if none has to win or lose.

Gambling is addictive because it is truly an activity that makes us excite. And once we tried to win and tasted what's the feeling of winning. We are going to keep on trying that makes us addicted in the long run. But there are people that are becoming addicted for having fun which becomes a normal thing to us.

Yes, the feeling that you feel when winning do excite us, also thrill, adrenaline, suspense
anticipation is what gamblers feel every time they gamble this what makes them play again
and again.
Surely they are coming back and makes themselves enjoy when they gamble. And as they enjoy, they don't notice it is making them addicted a little by little. No doubt that many lives are destroy because gambling is a normal thing that can make you addicted.

I agree with you both, it makes you come back for more or you try to win back the loss. When you feel the excitement when you won the game, you want to win more and more and eventually you get hooked up with the game and play more to gain more. That makes you get addicted to the game and yes sometimes it does destroy lives because you won't go out anymore so you can just gamble.
once you have got yourself enjoying the game and the good winning amount , that time you are vulnerable to get addicted. something good always there in your mind and that's make everyone get addicted to keep playing until they receive the same good experience as previously which it's rare happened for you to win big consecutively.

I guess gambling addiction is the most dangerous as you can change your life status even in a day only, when you are a millionaire now and you gamble without discipline, there is a big chance you will become poor. Most likely the outcome would not be based on your interest because you are gambling without having an edge.

There is a huge chance that everyone is going to lose everything when they gamble and it is not something that can be avoided when you actually choose to gamble. When you play EV+ games, the chances to win should be better however there is no telling that you will win the game all the time when you play

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 Sad

Why is it so addictive?
I feel you bro,when i lose my money on gambling i said that i will never ever gamble again and when weeks pass and got some bitcoins again im playing with it again i cant control it.Maybe its addictive because the site is letting us to feel that we can get money through it and when we earn we get more greedy and thats the time casinos work,when you win and you didnt stop they will strike you back and take all your winnings and eventually lose all your money

Addiction is really bad, not only in gambling, in every field addiction is dangerous for us. So if you could control yourself than you couldn't be addicted. Only we need full of determination and control ourself. Than believe me, you always play gambling with full of fun.
But as you said, whenever you lose you decide to left gambling, but later on you again start it. So it is not kind of addiction, its mean you like to play gambling even you lose in it.

People are selfish, but being selfish doesn't affect the gambling benefits. As here everything happens in relation to the luck factor, if you're a who has a sacrificing quality or selfish or a greedy mind is out of the gambling world. Here what you need is luck, if unlucky you might get bitten in the ass.
If you do gambling regularly, forget about the luck as it will not happen all the time, gambling is a fun game so it should be maintain that way.
When one is gambling because he thinks he is lucky then I would say that is wrong, instead of being superstitious, we have to be very practical and determine our real chances to make the right approach in gambling.

Why is it so addictive?
the main cause of addiction of gambling is that everyone wants to become rich having more money but for that they could not work hard to earn money, so the easy way which they adopt is 'gambling' and they think that without any work they could easily win a large sum of money in gambling but instead of winning they lose and their eagerness increases for win, and in such way they play again and again and become addict.
The thought of the chance of winning will make you bet more and more. The more you gamble, the more you will be addicted. Better get a hold of yourself or you can just lose everything. No matter what your luck or something, in the long run, you are going to lose.

exactly once. a person who becomes addicted in gambling because their mind is always thinking about the victory without cause, in other words they think are advantages that no essence or a good strategy. Because of the nature of such thoughts will only give bad impact to our growth, be someone who can indeed control yourself and not out of the right track (Simple) or do not fit into the path of greed. Self control is the key to making your success in gambling and good thing is also something of a sad thing

Greed is addictive and a lot of greedy people are unable to stop even though they manage to get plenty and so is gambling and the people that regularly gamble. It's so addicting because you're greedy to win or regain your lost money and in the process you lose control of yourself and get addicted.

Because those people already had a chance of winning on any gambling game that they play. And they keep on playing looking for the chance that it will give them satisfaction plus the profit. In the end, they are not aware that it is making them addictive.
They probably notice but doesn't care, they would just go on and play and believe they can win. They have a slight chance of that happening but not always, the edge in the casino has always the upper hand.

Once they are into it they won't care anymore because they already started to do so. And they don't want to stop because when they already have losses, they will aim most of the time just for their money and recovery of it. The casino doesn't really care what will be the effect of their service to their customers, they will just think about the profit.
That's the problem, they can't control it, even if they know that in the long run, it's always the casino. Losses are inevitable but if you hit that lucky jackpot bet, then it's probably the best thing that can happen. The best thing to do is just don't gamble or don't think about the profits because you'll probably get too emotional and attached to it.

Why is it so addictive?
compulsive gambling or gambling disorder—is an impulse-control disorder. If you’re a compulsive gambler, you can’t control the impulse to gamble, even when it has negative consequences for you or your loved ones. You’ll gamble whether you’re up or down, broke or flush, happy or depressed, and you’ll keep gambling regardless of the consequences—even when you know that the odds are against you or you can’t afford to lose.

Of course, you can also have a gambling problem without being totally out of control. Problem gambling is any gambling behavior that disrupts your life. If you’re preoccupied with gambling, spending more and more time and money on it, chasing losses, or gambling despite serious consequences in your life, you have a gambling problem.

A gambling addiction or problem is often associated with other behavior or mood disorders. Many problem gamblers also suffer with substance abuse issues, unmanaged ADHD, stress, depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder. To overcome your gambling problems, you’ll also need to address these and any other underlying causes as well. The first step is to separate the myths from the facts about gambling problems:

the lure of victory and gains always makes a person become addicted to gambling.
Yes, this is the main thing that makes a person become addicted to gambling. In other case we can call that  "greed". greed can make people addicted to gambling by dreaming that he can win a huge amount of money and he will live rich in the rest of his live. BUT all of things in gambling attached to the luck. So peoples who can become rich by doing gambling is so lucky. Maybe under 0.01% of gamblers in the whole world.

We do really have different thoughts on why gambling is so addicting. And I agree with you, I know a lot of people that are keep on buying lottery ticket and hopes to hit the jackpot prize no matter how long they are on it and there's no progress, they are not losing hope. Because once they hit the winning numbers, it will make them an instant millionaire.

I think in case of people who are buying lottery tickets, they are just obssessed by the thought of winning the jackpot but not addicted.  They keep on buying lottery ticket with the same number they choose because they fear that if they skipped buying they will missed the opportunity to win the jackpot.  And this is, in definition is under obssession not addiction.
