Re: Why is gambling so addicting?

Gambling is so addicting because when people have won one time then they think that luck is always going to be with them and they play further and more.
When you have tasted a win wit gambling then you are going to want more and more.
I don't think a winning could make people addicted, the only thing could make people addicted to gambling is a fun way to double your money with less effort if you compare it to real work that require hard work and muscle.
yes your emotion can make you addicted in gambling, it is your own personality and don't blame anybody except to yourself. Because once you cannot stop playing from betting in gambling that is actually an addiction. And it is really hard to cure. I guess we need the help of a psychiatrist. Because they know what to do for us to quit in gambling.

Gambling is never going to make anyone rich... at least not long term. Success is impossible to continuously be reproduces. Why? Because of the simple fact that the house always has the edge. (Be it 1% or 0.1%) It is always going to kill you n the long run. SO, the only way to get rich Gambling is if YOU are the one with the odds on your side.
yes it is a fact gambling cannot make a person rich. but it can only keep a person busy in becoming rich. if we are thinking that we can become rich from gambling then it is such a foolish thoughts because no one can become rich from gambling. but it can make you busy and give you fun and excitement if you are doing it in a limit.
No one can be rich in gambling and that is the truth! don't be fool to yourself that someday you will become rich in gambling! that was too impossible! if I were you, If you really want to get rich, instead of gambling use your money to have a business, although small business. at least that is your own and you are the boss.  Smiley

Re: How much can u lose with gambling?

Brief you can lose all your hard earned money with gambling. We can't provide an exact amount which we can lose through gambling because it's unlimited especially if the gambler is addicted.

especially those people who do not have knowledge about bitcoin and do not have any skills and besides this they come and spend their money into gambling, they lose all of them, it is not only the matter of gambling but in any field if you do not know about it you will lose there.
You do not need to study gambling that much if the games you loves to play are those type of games that has a house advantage because no strategy would work, you just need to study on bankroll management and know your purpose in gambling.
Yeah,studying gambling does not make's sense when you play with positive house edge actually,
you will lose always at the long run.
Only way to have something won is really big balance/big luck Grin
I can lose a lot,i dont care about those money :[
But for me, we don't need more knowledge in gambling as long as we are lucky enough to win, we can win the game. Smiley yes sometimes we also need strategy, but once you play that game you can actually learn while you are playing. And as I know small bettors are much more smarter way of betting than to the big bettors. Smiley just an opinion.

Losing and winning in gambling depends on your luck. I can't say gambling is wrong as for most people it is also played for fun not just for winning.
But one should realize if they are becoming addicted to gambling. Being addicted to gambling can make you lose a lot of money.
literally for me gambling is not wrong as long as you know how to handle yourself and you know your limitations, because for me gambling is wrong depend of a person that is playing with it. it will only get wrong if you are really out of control. And you didn't also listening to your family and friends that you should stop it.

Gambling is a fun game. So I think gambling is not wrong. This depends on how people will take gambling. If people make gambling is a serious money making a game. Then it is entirely wrong; You can not make any profit unless you put a lot of risk in gambling. But if you take it as fun then it is good for you. No much risk needed a year just control yourself and enjoy the game. So according to me, Gambling is not wrong.
If you will not try gambling you will not feel the effect of gambling, so when we decided to try it we should accept whatever the outcome is, we need to be a man to face the challenge and accept the result.
you do not have to try gambling to know the effects of gambling. You only need to read about gambling and it already knows the effects of gambling. such as drugs, whether you should try drugs to know the effect? I do not think so. because everyone can know from the experience of others.

It is really depend of a person, some people needs experience for them to know what is the effect of what they doing. But some people do not need that experience because they totally understand what will happen to them if they do it and which is good because they do not need to lose something for them to realise if its good or bad.
As a gambler we should learn to accept our loses because in gambling it is not always win, most of the time we lose so we need to control ourselves to handle the feeling, I know no one is happy with losing but for a gambler that is fully entertain he can easily recover from loses.

Re: How to quit Gambling for good?

on 19/11/2016, 19:53:22 UTC
You can never quit gambling for good once you have tasted its essence. All you can do is make short pauses but in the end you will start gambling again. This is been seen over and over again in many people cases inclusive me. When there is no hope of getting money then we come back to try luck this is bitter reality. This is one way road once in then you are on it.

This is not true. People can quit if they really have the desire to quit gambling. Maybe you are stucked to gambling because it was your choice to gamble even if it is already bad to you. Even drug addiction can be cure, so, gambling addiction can be cured too. And those who have. A strong desire to get away from gambling will be able to quit and get away from it.

Yes, I agree. I know all of us can quit in gambling if we are really addicted to it. It is also depend on you if you REALLY want to. And if you have that determination to quit I guess you will just stuck of what you are doing always.
When you are addicted you just listen to yourself and you are dictated by your emotions all the time, you are not thinking clear so you need to be help by other people non other than your very own family, just listen to them and everything will be back to normal.

I see there is so many people trying hard to stop gambling their money because they've losing so much
If you not ready to lose your money, then don't even try to gamble!
You need to really stop if you have a gambling problem because it can really hurt you if you do not know how to stop.
Especially if you have a family you can hurt not only yourself but them as well.
I only gamble for fun, and very seldomly do I go into casinos. I have heard of so many sad stories about people who got addicted in gambling and did illegal things just to sustain their addiction. That is why I only gamble a small amount and I know that when it's over, it is over for me.
Yes true not too sure if gambling could add earnings as bitcoin is a game. We are definitely going to experience victory and defeat so we should not gamble with spending all bitcoin. Perhaps the main problem of gambling is greed.
Yeah! I agree with you and that is because I have experience it on my own, when you have the feeling that you do not want to stop even if you are winning already and when you lose also you still don't want to stop because you want to chase your losses, that never really bring good into our life.
I'd also experience this, at first it is really happy that you are winning the game in the first place but we really didn't stop because we also want more. Until we loose what we won in the game and even worse we also loose our personal money because nothing left of what we had won. but I don't gamble all my personal money I also had a limitations in betting so I end up on loosing instead of winning,  Embarrassed

Re: How to play gambling in a smart way?

on 19/11/2016, 19:52:47 UTC
In my honest opinion, the smartest way on being a gambler is not to be so greedy on betting. I always believe that if you win some you will definitely loose some,... So better, set some goals on your side. If you think you have already loosed enough, Better stop and say for yourself. I am off for today, Better luck next time.
Your suggestion is very smart but we cannot put spirit on this one if we don't implement it while in gambling, it need a lot of discipline to be successful in a risky game like gambling.
greediness in gambling is avoidable. once you've entered gambling you will always expecting of positive side and that is winning. don't be so fool to yourself, we all want to win in gambling. @cecelady
, well be matured enough when playing gambling because once you've start become greediness all what you want is to win and gain profit and i guess some of us can't control themselves. but you were also right that we all need a lot of discipline when it comes in gambling and also know our limitations.  Smiley

for me gambling is not a problem actually are the most common when you have no support your family of some expenses i use gambling to double my bitcoin in easy as 123 and it helps me because i can support my self for my daily needs but sometimes im not that too greedy if i think i win 1 time that you think you can win more thats not actualy for its always 30% of winning and 70% of losing it just depends on how you play and you follow your gut

That's not easy, and not healthy too... relying on gambling to support life is not a good idea... At first, yes, you will enjoy it and could possibly win a little while you are not yet abusing yourself and gambling, but days would come that you would realize that you are not gaining anything from it in totality of time that you spend to it.. You should stop now while you are not yet experiencing the downside of it..

totally agreed with this, relying on gambling to support life is not a good idea, what if you lose your bitcoin and you can't win just one time? you cannot support your life if you lose? right? so for me, don't depend on gambling it is really up to you of how you save your money. in your monthly income save some of them also for you to stop gamble. save 30% - 50% of your income and not use it in gamble. the more you save the more you earn Smiley
Yeah, that's right, instead of allocating some part of your salary to gambling, you can just save it, who knows, you might need it in emergencies in the future.Besides, gambling won't guarantee that you'll have a good future.

Re: Quit Gambling for Good, think for your loved ones

Good story to share OP, I did suffered a lot in Gambling too, and I am still finding a way to quit...

Think for your family, your parents, your loved ones, your wife or kids < this always do when I lost, but won't be happened when you are gambling especially when you are winning.... Sad

you just have to limit yourself to do less and less gambling each day until you quit it for good. it means making smaller bets and having less amount of bankroll to work with then reducing the time you spend on gambling each day. if you quit suddenly you will come back again.

Actually your way is not right, to quit gambling, you cannot do this, once human deposit and loses money, he will have the mentality to deposit more and think of recovering his losses, at this point of time, he already don't want to win profit anymore. He just want to recover his losses,

But at this point of time, he start to lose more and more, the more he deposit, the more he lose.

To quit gambling for good is don't deposit even $1 at all, just play with free faucet if the player wants and find something else to do other than gambling. Maybe meet up your friends for dinner or movies or playing PC games is another good way.
yes, your friends can also help you to quit in gambling, but it is also depend if your friend is not addicted to it. And it is also depend on you, IF YOU REALLY WANT TO QUIT IN GAMBLING. BUT if your friends are one of the addicted person in gambling then your family will be very have a hard time to convince you to stop in gambling. Because once you are out of control I think it is much better to put you in the rehabilitation centre.

I think its because you can easily doubling your money on gambling but the risk is you also can easily lose your money on gambling. I think gambling is makes more addicting when you win much money on gambling and it's make you want gambling more.
which makes gambling so addictive is not only when we win the advantage, but if we lose any money we would gamble again to regain the lost.
Yeah I agree with you whatever results you get on gambling than likely you would go back to gamble again. I do not know what magic is used by the gambling site for players to keep play gambling. but if you gamble you definitely feel very enjoy and exciting right ?

It is not the magic itself man, we are the only making ourselves addicted to gambling and that is for one reason which is "greed", with that we never get contented if we lose or win.

Here are my speculations why gambling is really so addicting:
1. Entertainment / joy when you are gambling your money.
2. Greediness
3. You want to return the lose you have made.

Add some if you think there are.

Yeah for point 2 and 3 are make any sense but for point 1 that entertain yourselves when you spend on your money like nothing without hoping to return back? Will that OK for everyone? Especially are you feeling some joyous moment when you lose your money that instant? Doesnt make any sense though
It should be summarize into 2 only, Entertainment and Greediness are the main reasons, if you are greedy you will not be able to stop even if you will or lose big so the outcome would always be lose on your part.
Too bad most people are being greed rather than entertain in gambling. Well, because that's how it should really is, that's why they call it gambling because they need money in fast way making them greedy in it.
yeah, greediness is not avoidable once in gambling. All of us wants to win when it comes in gambling. But gambling is really just for entertainment and if most people do this just to gain profit lot of people will become addicted in gambling and that is too bad.

winning and losing in gambling is just like brother and sister. no one can tell you that either you will win or lose your own investment. it is a game of luck and if you are luck then surely you will win and if not then possibly lose your own. no you have to decide what do to. invest or not.
well some gambling don't need to be lucky because sometimes we just need strategy and knowledge for us to win in gambling. And the gambling experts always win in the game, because they are professionals, and they always doing this to gain profit.

Some of what you say here is true but that doesnt mean gambling will ruin your life. If you have an addictive personality and cannot control when to stop gambling, then yes you prob shouldnt gamble. If you have self control and just wanna toss a few dollars around here n there then youll be fine.

Its like driving or drinking. Do it responsibly ! If someone has a gambling issue that big then you must get serious help before it tears apart your relationships with people and yourself too.

Whatever, OP. Just because you and other people can't handle your own finances, emotions or manage your time and don't know how to gamble responsibly doesn't mean the rest of us have to quit doing what we do.

Sorry, not sorry.

If you read the whole thing he said very clearly he wasn't telling anyone to do anything . Do you have a superiority complex where you think he is talking directly to you ? You get quite worked up over it. And addiction is a serious issue and that's the truth.

All of us, must be matured enough in terms in gambling. Everyone knows that if you entered gambling you can really lose a money/bitcoin, right?
But the thing is, if you don't have discipline and control in your money then you will really lose a lot of money in gambling.
whatever they say we all know that we can lose/win in gambling but for me loosing is much more result in gambling and we should not fool ourselves from that. Just know your limitations and gambling and everything will be good enough.

gambling is pure risk and when there is risk involved there would never be any safety so you all should stop looking for safe methods because you will just waste your time and get disappointed.
Hehe well, that is your understanding. But for gamblers. taking risk is more exciting, and in gambling there are a lot of excitement happenings. because there are money involving here. And they just want to know which will be much more safest way to earn in gambling. and for me. safest way in gambling is just bet in a small amount so that you can play longer and you can have more chances to win than to bet big amounts.  Grin

Re: Worst mistake in gambling

The worst mistake i ever did is when win big money in a casino site and then lost it all when come back again to play

Well, lot of people are like that also they come back to the casino or gambling site for them to get back what they lose but actually they will just lose again. And you cannot recover for whatever reason because you didn't notice that it is already an addicted illness in gambling.
It actually depends on the person himself/herself. I lost 1BTC before and decided to try to get it back (I know the possibility that I might lose more money) but because of the previous mistakes and experience I got, I managed to get back my 1BTC with a .50BTC additional net profit. Smiley

because you can earn and loss profit at short period of time
not only that. however, gambling was consumed us. time becomes useless because we do gambling.

If you think gambling is just wasting your time means that you do not know how to manage your time, nothing else. So you need to learn how to manage your time on gambling, this is one of the most important parts on how to control yourself on gambling.


Yeah, start managing your time by not gambling. Gambling takes too much time from a person and time is his most valuable asset. So, do not waste you time on gambling because it does not benefit you anything except for a few money here and there. There are things which you can spend your time better like sports or learning trading or enhancing you skills. Those things can be more profitable than gambling.

Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ?
by

on 19/11/2016, 19:47:15 UTC
if someone really want to stay away from gambling, i think this is the best suggestion. you will not ever in future will try to gamble.

1. make a bet on gambling site and with all the btc you have and  play until you make sure you lost all. you will fell very bad, you will not be able to sleep few days and than you will make your mind never to gamble again
2. your gov bann the online gambling in your country.
It is a bad idea,you know why? i will explain it to you.
If you lose a lot of btc,you cannot accept the loss right? So you will try to recover it,
what will be the reason for depositing more.
Agree. Why do you suggest to make bets on all btc and then lost them? Maybe it is better not to gamble on money and prevent high losts in a way of submission the losts in imagination: to imagine losts, not to do them.
That is what you called you need to learn the hard way to realize that gambling is not for your because it is bad for you, there are only others that can make gambling beneficial into their life but you are not one of them.
Game of gambling accepted as not game is bad for everyone. There are no lucky ones that does business from gambling, and it means that nobody can make gambling beneficial.
Not all the time, we are the lucky ones once you're in gambling. we all know that we can lose and we can win. But all of us wants to win right? But it is really depend of a person that is playing it. If we are mature enough to understand that there is a looser and a winner in every game then it is fine for you if you lose, but if not. it is not good if you lose then you want to bet again and again until nothing left in your pocket and that is bad.  Sad
