We all love the easy quick money, if you don't agree with that, then i love easy quick money. How to get that?
The only possible answer for this is do some gamble. Just think to taking all money in the table make people don't want to stop playing.
Greed. This is why gambling so addicting, because human are greed.

Easy money and being greedy on money will make us loose the more we greed on that thing the more risk we can take every one loves to make easy money the real question is, Is everyone willing to pay the price? Everyone Loved to take all money playing gambling we all want to take the price but we don't know that we are getting too much on that involving too much on that thing.

But I have saw that even those people are addicted to gambling who do not win money in gambling and who know well that they are not that much expert to win some money in gambling so with that I think they are gambling and addicted to gambling because of some enjoyment involved in gambling.

Even unskilled player can win on gambling even if he is not addicted to gambling , gambling are for those lucky person who will win for the first time and there are people who are addicted on gambling and had already skilled are loosing sometimes but doesn't mean that you need to involved anything on your life.

It does really matter on how lucky you are and as you said even those first times or non skilled persons do really win on first attempts or few attempts on playing a gambling game which somehow gives the feeling of addiction at first place.

You can't tell your fortune but when you play harder and then you feel like continue on betting till your lose and realize that you can't even win again then withdraw i taught my friend i just tell him and he played i didn't expect that he can win the game and bring profit of 0.2 bitcoin.

That's nice to hear knowing that you have a friend that won 0.2 Bitcoin. Did he withdraw it already? Or played it again? I hope he just went home because that's a lot already. Winning that is better. Don't get too addicted especially when you always win.

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.

Gambling is addicting because at the first place you can enjoy playing it and when you win some it will cause you wanting to win more. And it is so good to have profit that easy.

Gambling is the best tool to get lots of money in the shortest amount of time with the least skill required. In fact, nowadays the games are designed in such a way that it does not requires you to understand anything and you just move with the flow. The machine or the dealer say you win, you win and they say you lose, you lose your money. And that is why so many people get addicted cause the entry level is not high.

With that said, kids and young people are the usual victim of that, as they just need few dollars and they are good to go and gamble, and it become much easier because of bitcoin, not even their parents knowing what they are doing in their room, they could bet while doing their assignments...

With their young minds, they are very much prone to addiction as their thinking is not yet like that of an adult...

I feel to this and a victim Grin

. LOL. Actually, young kids didn't think of risk at the beginning. They just want to bet and win. Also, environment also has a factor in it and of course family. If you are brought up in a family which gambles, most likely you will gamble at a young age.

those people who gamble at first time and mostly an under age players will never accept the fact that they are lost , they will do everything to make their money back , include to chasing the lost . in the end they didn't realize that they are too enjoy to play and get addicted , this shows how important to gamble responsibly , you might won't get addicted.

You are correct mate. When they are just aware of it, hopefully very soon, that they are more prone to losing than winning in gambling and that there is no easy way to win all the time, then they will give themeselves a chance of not getting addicted to it.

gambling completely shouldn't considered as a way to make profit in the long run like a regular job , it would just lead you into a heavy lost in the end. it's proven already that gambling in the long run wouldn't profitable due the negative EV , it might works for few people but not for most people who just get addicted and broke.

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''.

Because at first gambling is very good in terms of good income. It gives you high profit that you never earn at first. It gives you the feeling that you always win but not just winning, it makes you to feel you earn a lot money by just simply gamble your money and then it force you to gamble more for a high earning. But gambling has a disadvantage, if you don't know how to limit your money in playing gambling you'll end yourself nothing. All of your earning in gambling will simply vanished because of gambling too. Even your capital will loose and nothing will left.

Well any addiction is bad for anyone. Smoking in itself has proven negative effects to your health and can even be fatal but people like you find it very hard to stop. I think its the mental and emotional satisfaction that it gives to the person that makes it hard to let go. Same goes for gambling. Some people who are addicted to gambling are those who feel alone or sometimes are depressed. Or gambling just makes them feel good that they don't feel from anything else

You dont feel anything from gambling? seriously you are losing money when you gamble and you dont feel a thing? Yes of course you wont if you actually owned over 10 millions of USD and only spend a few of it to gamble however real fact is that no people actually addicted to it because it causes addiction, you control your own body for that

greediness is the reason people gamble and also for loosing money. I too gamble though.

i think its not just greediness for the reason people gamble but i think they are curious about gambling games so they still continue playing gambling even they know that they can not always win in the gambling games. beside that, gambling have many games that we can played and we have opportunity to make money from gambling itself but remember always used your free money and don't risk all of your money if you are too afraid to getting loss.

At first, I didn't know anything about gambling it's just that I want to try it and learn what it's all about. I started gambling using bitcoin it's also easier to do it online instead of being there in person. There are a lot of advantages gambling online against when you are in a casino and for me, that's what more comfortable.

It falls under money... It's not curiosity anymore as you want to play it long as you are already aware what the result is...

No matter how many and what ever kind of games are those, it is still gambling, though we could call the beginning as curiosity, it is not still a reason why we are addicted to gambling...

I believe fun could be part of the addiction because if you are having fun, you always want to do it

Fun is definitely wont be causing addiction. Let me give you an example to brief in, why do you hink there are so many pro hardcore dota player? Do you think they play for fun? No they dont , they play to win and become the best. Plus that they are making money from it. Now do you see the point of it? It is about making money and nothing else

It can be a factor also when you are enjoying all the times you play, and it could cause addiction. The feeling of the dopamines in your brain, rising higher, it causes to feel happiness, and it could lead to the addiction itself. Gamblers play because of the profit also, not just to become the best. Formulating different techniques could lead themselves to the best part.

So what makes a gambler happy? it's winning of course.

The other guy is right, fun has nothing to do with addiction, it will always be the money that is involved in betting that makes it addicting whether we win or lose. When we win, we feel happy, and that makes us bet more and stay in the gambling site for long, when we lose, we still have the reason to continue as we want them to pay back all that we lose.

I would agree that fun is a reason why people gets addicted to gambling if there is no money or bet involved.

It will tempt a person to bet more amount when he/she luckily won in the gambling game but he has no satisfaction with his winnings. They will find more time to bet and that will make him addicted if the activity becomes habitual and extremely uncontrolled. He always think of winning for more amount and expected for more eventhough risk of lossing profit is always a part of the game.

Man has no satisfaction, that is why when we gamble, we will bet more and more even if they are losing and even in winning, in fact, we tend to lose more when we are winning, because we become greedy and become uncontrollable when we feel like we are lucky with our bets.

Fun has nothing to do with addiction, winning and losing has.

I believe fun could be part of the addiction because if you are having fun, you always want to do it. Addiction does not automatically mean that you are in the losing side, although most gamblers who are addicted are losing their money but I can consider this people who are winning most of the time due to their exposure in gambling. With that said, I guess it will always depend on how people would using his urge to gamble.

Fun is just the result and not the cause on why a gambler become a gambler. I live in the place where many are gambler, and they are not doing it for fun, they mean business when you play with them. They only say they have fun when they are done.

I have friends who are gamblers too, and when I ask them what they got in gambling, it's not the fun, their reason is they are winning money out of it.

Of course, some people who have experienced a lot of winnings in gambling would love to have more. It's the feeling in our brains that makes it like that. Knowing how to control it is a key factor and prevents you from future losses too. The profit is one of the main reasons why gambling is so addicting.
