I have not met more than 3 addicted gamblers in my entire life even though I know more than a thousand gamblers. Even in this forum, I think I have only seen about 4 person admit that they are suffering addiction apart from some new accounts created to make accusations of casino opening their accounts when they self-exclude. This then make me wonder why gambling addiction is a big topic in the forum. It is not even easy to be addicted to gambling, if you weigh the price to pay, you will advice yourself.I tried to see the statistic and it shows here that only 2% of world population is suffering from gambling addiction https://worldmetrics.org/online-gambling-addiction-statistics/~~
So its not true or even good to say that whole world is addicted to gambling since there are few people suffering that. Those people experience this episodes doesn't have good control or discipline then expect to much that they can easily get rich on gambling.
But there are people who can control their selves on gambling and didn't get much affected in this situation. Its undeniable that Rollbit is very successful but those people playing their are not those experience addiction, but also those who want to have fun to.
Or perhaps most people find it hard to confess that they are addicted to something. I mean, think about it. How many people have you come across saying that they are addicted to let say certain drugs or masturbation (sorry for using crazy examples ) but when you are in some anonymous platform, you have a number of them admit about the addictions.I have not met more than 3 addicted gamblers in my entire life even though I know more than a thousand gamblers.

Gambling addiction is real and it happens. I have seen it mess up even a couple of friends who failed to understand how to limit themselves, and it would be very awesome if someone acknowledges that they have an addiction. That is the first step to making things right. This is why you see there is a campaign dubbed (gambleaware.org) and also casino try to provide numerous avenues for self-exclusion.
ThatÂs some good resource you pulled up there and yeah, it feels wrong for such assertion. Going through the resource, itÂs said that 1-3% of internet users are those that are affected by these addiction problems, mostly young mages aged 18-24years of age and if you are spending at least 20hours a week on gambling, you are likely an addict.I tried to see the statistic and it shows here that only 2% of world population is suffering from gambling addiction https://worldmetrics.org/online-gambling-addiction-statistics/

We might as well examine ourselves and the time we spend gambling on a weekly average if we are to accept this studies.
Considering the fact that, we have live gambling today and there are those who prefer to gamble live matches and these games keeps you glued to your screen, watching the game as well as taking bets in between. I suppose the minutes spent seeing the game counts towards the 20hours average right?
Who else enjoy that Juicy Odd for Barcelona to win tonight
I have to admit, I didn't know that Lamine Yamal was out injured but as soon as I saw the odd somewhere at 2.6 for Barça to win, I just went in even without thinking that much. Who gives Barcelona an odd of 2.6 against a toothless Newcastle?
I did it for fun but well, I will gladly take the win, Got an early payout as well

I support this because it is hard to believe the 2% claim. Many who are addicted to gambling and other addiction especially those that are/can be subtle may often say they are not addicted until they try to quit but one way or another coming up with an excuse to continue rather than maybe giving an actual break for the time being or just quitting, depending on the one that work well for them.Or perhaps most people find it hard to confess that they are addicted to something.

There are many gambling addicts out there. They just arent open about it. Unlike drinking or drug addictions, you cannot tell if someone is addicted to gambling or not. They might look like a normal person. But if you find a gambling anonymous event in your area, you will find it full of people. Most are successful working individuals but they suffer from the addiction.
So you might not find a handful of people who admit they are addicts on Bitcointalk, there are many out there. Also I think most addicts are addicted to the physical casinos and not the online crypto virutal ones. They go there for the entertainment also and that is one way how many of them got hooked. Gambling online is not as exciting as it is in real life in a physical casino.

It's safe to assume this is the reality; we'll even encounter people who come from backgrounds other than successful professionals, but also those with uncertain careers.
It's like an addiction, where they rely solely on it.

I'm sure it's no different here. Not everyone who claims to be addicted to gambling here actively gambles, and vice versa.
It depends on how deeply they've pursued the game and experienced the thrill of gambling.
If you are not rich, you can not rely on gambling to have extra money as your income for livelihoods or to be richer. Gambling itself is risk, with high risk of losing money than chance of winning and much more lower chance of getting rich with it.It's safe to assume this is the reality; we'll even encounter people who come from backgrounds other than successful professionals, but also those with uncertain careers.

So relying solely on gambling for income is like suicide as it is very unrealistic and unachievable purpose. Some people can hope so but they must get money from somewhere like working and use it for gambling but rather than that, I recommend to invest money in bitcoin to get rich. While with gambling, don't hope to get rich with it, especially if you are low-income and the poor now.
Playing for fun and trying your luck with sparsely bets is fine, just don't bet regularly with hope of getting rich and becoming billionaire.

Clearly, it can't be done. The problem isn't us, but those we can't predict because they've been sucked into that habit. We admit it exists. Hopefully, they'll realize it soon.
If we rely solely on gambling, we'll gain absolutely nothing except damaged relationships for those who are married. Their appearance will also be messy, seemingly unkempt.

One word for this: true.

Clearly, that's how it should be.
A few hours before the match, Barcelona's odds were @2.12 and rose immediately before the match because the bookmakers knew that Yamal's presence would affect the odds, but Barcelona could still win even without Yamal.Who else enjoy that Juicy Odd for Barcelona to win tonight

Those who chose Barcelona to bet on were happy.
Last night, another favorite team won, so there were no surprises at all.

Its really crazy for people to think about that knowing in gambling everything is unsustainable. We face lots of challenges and that posses huge risk especially that we have huge chance to lose especially if we don't pay much attention on what we are doing and became greedy and abusive towards those games we are playing.
Better not to rely on gambling since they are close to get broke on that matter if they put everything because they believe that this is easy way to earn richest.
Playing for fun and test our luck is better approach to do here so that we can enjoy the games we are playing and we will not engage on more stressful scenarios.

Not all whom would entertain the idea of quoting gambling do so because of addiction problems neither will I say, all whom would like to take this step and often find themselves returning back to gambling have addiction problems.
There are those who find gambling to be of no good to them given, how unprofitable theyÂve being while gambling and might chose to quit the way, there are also those who just want to quit because they feel is of low standards in their pursuit of other things and life and many other reasons.
As much as your reason gives your desires purpose, when not strongly rooted, you could find yourself returning to gamble.

But sometimes I try to be realistic when placing the bets.
Newcastle is pretty much a docile team at the moment, and they honestly did not put much effort in the recent transfer window except prolonging the Isak Transfer saga which is soon going to bite them so hard. The few signings they made were just some bang average overpriced players.
Barcelona are stronger than Newcastle United and it is a second season of Newcastle United in Champions League after a latest one in two seasons ago. They don't have enough experience in UEFA Champoins League compares to Barcelona and in this summer, their club have big changes in player resource with a departure of Alexander Isak who was their main striker and goal scorer in the last season.I am one person who doesn't like Barcelona (I am a Real Madrid fan) and had they lost that night, I would have still be happy either way despite losing the bet

Newcastle United did not prepare well for this season in both Premier League and Champions League, so it's not strange how they lost to a strong opponent like Barcelona. Newcastle United only can win against Barcelona if Barcelona underperform but it's not what happened in the match. This season will be very chaotic for Newcastle United and they have risk of finishing beyond the Premier League top four.
Looking at the article you shared, this may only be a small glimpse of what's happening in general. There are statistics like this, but we can see that behind them, we can see that these are only estimates, considering that these statistics are clearly just a snapshot of a sample taken, so what happens in the real world is far greater than that.I tried to see the statistic and it shows here that only 2% of world population is suffering from gambling addiction https://worldmetrics.org/online-gambling-addiction-statistics/
Addiction can occur in several forms. Even those of us who say we're not addicted to gambling may be unknowingly exposed if we gamble non-stop or even daily, even within reasonable limits.
In fact, it's difficult to define addiction, especially when it's difficult to define addiction, and only those who are considered severe are considered addicted to gambling. However, if we look deeper, when someone can't stop gambling and must always do it, even within reasonable limits, I think that's considered an addiction. They can still maintain control in terms of ambition, but in terms of time and circumstances, they can no longer separate gambling from their lives.
