Because we have been attracted by the prizes or the very big money if we hit the jackpot, we are hoping to win and thinking that a miracle can happen. Well you can only have it yours if you have the 100 percent luck. We are being addicted to gambling we let ourself to be lazy.

Because gambling has enormous appeal. As you say, Get Jackpot is desired by all gamblers. The allure of trying to get a very large jackpot, when we could not restrain ourselves will fall and become addicted. if we had hit the jackpot when arriving was a passion for gambling even increasing, the desire to win again appear. One that must be controlled is the emotions, do not let gambling overwhelm us.

Because Gambling is where you can multiply your money once that happens you will become a part of gambling. Gambling is so addicting when your first try is you will win. You can win twice but you will loss many times that how gambling works. It is better to take gambling as for fun only.

and gambling also can eliminate all the money we have. we must be careful in taking any decisions because we will not always lucky when playing.

You have to come out of emotions while gambling. It's not that easy, when you are winning it'll just make you play and play more but that may lead to a complete loss of all of your funds with your savings.
So always be cautious while gambling, either you are winning or losing.

Its addicting because its fun to do, and nice to win money.
People are getting blind if they see some cash on their screens.

And some people get tempted to bet when they see big odds, they dont care if the bet will end as a win or loose, but they just gamble in hope. I think odds matter less, if you win then it matters, if you know you will loose, why even care much for odds.

yes! indeed you are correct, almost all gamblers is like that I think. They always got tempted unto it, if there are thinking their gonna win and hit the jackpot this time, perhaps it is one of their thinking why they are strongly motivated to play in the gambling.

In gambling I often hear the word addict for only those people who just forget about the benefits and needs of their family and only know about betting their money and do not think about that they are able to win or lose while other people who only play for fun and control on themselves are not called as addict.

Thats what they call themselves however I say that they are no difference than those who play for profit. As long as a person is gambling then I dont see the difference no matter what they call themselves. Addicted or not, someone who is gambling is already addicted although they dont want to admit it

Desire and greed can be factors to. In nature we all want to have more money. So gambling is fastest way to achieve that goal.

That's what we, gamblers, think trying to ignore the fact that it is also the fastest way to lose money.

Actually I'm wondering how many, or what percentage, of people who gamble can be called gambling addicts? I think less than 10%, but maybe I'm wrong.

Anyway every form of addiction is bad and you have to deal with it properly. First try to realize that it is not necessary to have more money in order to be happy. Second, if you need more money gambling is not the place where to go for it.

The goal that would have the respective process. we can only choose a process where we want to go through, whether the process instantly? or non-instant process?
and gambling is one of the above processes.
Most people today would have been inclined to choose an instant process, but our parents always taught me to always try, because the results that we enjoy are the fruit of the work we do during this time.

I think gambling is so addictive because people love to do it. They also think that you can win a lot of money, but that's actually not true.
They realize until later that they have spent more money than they thought.

Gambling is since the beginning already addicting.

Not because its just fun but because you can make money fast.

The most people are just forgetting their family and friends.

Of course once addiction was being applied the number one get affected is the behavior of a gambler then since the personality is being changed because of it his /her family will get affect on it too, until it will become a psychological problems. but for the gamblers He is always look for it because of the satisfaction he gets from gambling.

currently all games even for kids are based on gambling - try to get some weapon, clothes or character.

this is the carrot vs stick rule. get enough stuff to bet, try to get stuff. if u loose ur sad and play more if u win ur in good mood and.. play more but happy! and tell others

i love gambling esp that BTC price is just gambling in a way also!

You have good point there. When we lost in gambling, we are becoming more curious and want to get back our loss before (became greedy) by deposit more money and hoping to win more than our losses before, but when we win, we can't stop because we earned easy money, we want more and more.
Holding your BTC right now is not gambling, i would call it trading because you can't lose all your btc although btc price goes down.

It's a double risk but it offers great rewards, therefore we should be careful with selecting our bets if we are using a good amount of money to bet.
There's plenty of games in the internet now and you are right that kids learn how to gamble and because of the convenience to do that brought to us by bitcoin gambling sites, kids nowadays are at risk of being addicted.

The potential risk in gambling is way larger compared to trading. The rewards of it are always looking good, but the chances of you are winning that is extremely low. It's hard to teach kids on what to do in gambling but, it's not recommended also because you will never know what will happen to them if you expose them to that environment. You might just lose the kid over money.

You can't help yourself especially when you win some big amounts. Your emotion is telling you to bet more that you would still win if you will bet more. If you don't control yourself from that situation you might end up with nothing. You might be frustrated when you run out of balance when you already have won some big amounts.

Definitely greed conquered your thought here and your will has given up on that greed. This always happen to those who lack self control. I may not say addicted since greed has more possibility to triggers obsession than addiction. Talking about addiction, this happen when a person rely on gambling to alter his mood and got an impulse control disorder.
