Re: Why is gambling so addicting?

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?

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.

So, when we play gambling we need to limit ourselves T the beginning, we should know our limit so that if we already lose what we can afford, we already know if we needs to stop the game.

for the full time gambler the only thing can stop us from gambling is when we run out cash and we broke
so be a part time gambler so you can stop when you feel you need to stop lol

Part time gambler? LOL you guys are being so serious about it. Gambling should be a casual entity not something you do every day once a while with say 10bucks in hand and let it roll. It will be just another method to waste that money unless you are very rich and have a huge fortune to waste on.

One needs to control gambling and that control totally depends on that person themselves. If they consider even 1buck as too much to gamble with because they are poor, well that their decision.

Everything can be worthless if you wanted to control gambling but your attitude doesn't want to. That gambling passion can is like a cancer disease that is spreading out in your entire system particularly with your mental capability of handling every situation. Losses in a long run forces you to bet again for another good and bad gambling games and an addicted gambler doesn't care if he loss again or he win, all he wanted is just play and play until funds will be spent. Addiction can be into moderation if a player will be motivated with self control and have a responsible manners of managing funds and most important is time management of every activities he had.
