I go through phases with being addicted to gambling personally, so it depends on the day for me. I have days every now and then where no amount won is ever enough, and I will not stop playing until I run out of money. I do set goals every time I play - If I triple the money I deposited, I cash out 2/3 and keep playing, and I will keep doing that until my balance runs out. On a good day, I'll have cashed out anywhere between 10 - 25 times, so I feel satisfied having been able to play for so long and having a profit. On a bad day, however, I'll lose quickly and throw all of my winnings back in. Bad days happen a lot more often when I am stressed out or feeling down, so I do my best not to play when I'm not in a good state of mind. I lost 60k in 3 months about 5 years ago... and as a result, I had become homeless for a year. Oregon was not a fun place to be homeless, either. Thankfully going through that taught me how to have much more self-control. Now I at least make sure my bills are paid and I have food in the fridge before I blow everything

[williamshennie9 725]

I gamble for fun, so neither for addiction or to reach a specific goal. I do however only allow myself to play a certain percentage of my balance per day, and if I lose that, then I force myself to stop playing for the day

Hello there , yep i'm committed , i always have a goal like if i win stop , if i lose stop too, but most of the time i play for enjoyment, and being commited to something is a way to have fun to

[bmg 482]

@Kingcashedout ..  I'm going to say a little of both actually.

[rdbase 18]

I am going with saying committed. Because once you start having a negative balance you are always trying to get back on the positive side on the stats page.

And this means being in profit.

[77kdub 147]

I don't know that I'm addicted like some are, I mean it can be addicting at times but I'd like to think i'm more commited to achieving my goal then I am addicted or obsessed with hitting my goal.

[jinz 109]

I'm gonna say that I am just committed because I still have control on my gambling habits.

[Sefan 49]

I would say none of them really, i only play cause i think that its fun, so i guess that i fall in the category committed, but some times it feels  like im addicted  when i cant stop playing after having won somthing

[GKD09 96]

I am COMMITTED to my ADDICTION!! 😂😂 

Lol really.. I know that I am addicted and I know I can stop it quite easily if I wanted to. But I have nothing better to do and right now this is the only way to make myself pass some time and not be unhappy. 

Bad days and joblessly waiting till I go for my masters. 😛

I'm super bored and my friends are mostly abroad and I'm just at home with fam. So yes I'm committed to the only fun way of making some money.

[Etude 476]

It is so very often easy for me to lose myself in my gambling session so I think it is fair to say that I might well enough be addicted.

[Kate 615]

I am just commited not addicted because it is like a thing or activity that i always just do for fun and nothing else it is like a form of entertainment for me if you say.

[bobdole 32]

I'm pretty sure I am addicted but I have a good time so I don't care enough to stop. Part of the problem is that I feel if I don't play I'm missing out on some kind of good luck but more often than not it's the opposite. I wouldn't say I'm committed as I have no actual goal other than to win a lot of money.

[cryptofly 32]

Thanks for make it an easy question... Addicted!  Suddenly, I surprise myself when stopping when making a certain percent of profit, or stopping when loosing couple hands, but most of the time I can`t stop.  Good luck.

[barbaris 344]

I do not depend. I just like to play and get pleasure from it. Of course, the goal in gambling games is only one to win it if possible. But the loss will not become something critical for me, because you need to know when to stop.

[nattekut 104]

I am certainly not addicted, just like hennie I am gambling for fun and I have my fixed weekly limits on what I spend on gambling. And beside that I never put in extra money or chase losses, neglect my work or something else. So I consider myself as a recreational gambler that just is in it for the fun. If I win something than its ok and if I bust then I had some fun time

[sahil777 14]

well i am not addicted but yeah i like gambling because its fun, and also intresting people around to chat, same became your friends, actually good friends.

Stake is a very nice place not only for gambling, but as a community and human relations.

[polor12 156]

again this topic has been brought up just different wording ok i will  state the same this the word addicted is such a negative word to things that you like to do.. gambling is all entertainment for people you will enjoy it and at some point there times will you not enjoy it... as being committed to a certain win... you are ready committed once you started playing.. with the mentality to win and and win more..if u play with anger rage betting in other words.. u will definitely lose..wit out a clear mind distractions will come easily and money will slowly decrease which make u more angry..

[PJAlina 9]

I dont think im addicted to gambling.. more like addicted to winning...  I guess hehe.. since this is my source of income.. i need to control myself before everything is gone hehe

[Tomki 18]

I'm not addicted to gambling, i don't know why but i play for pleasure.

Stake - play smart!

[ivaylo2000 46]

I'm addicted to gambling. This is the only thing that gives me the pleasure of doing it and helping me get rid of all the everyday care. Dependence on gambling is a severe diagnosis as a whole. It is difficult to treat, but only when it is in the last degree. I do not think that to such an extent I can become addicted to ignoring everything about gambling and selling furniture and appliances from my home

[Tomki 18]

 

I am sorry that you write about it.

I try win giveaway from steam on twitch.tv, discord, of course on forum too and other.

I claim from faucet too - other website but i don't give bitcoin on casino... better invest than casino. Casino can take and earn that why i hide to bank on stake, if 200k satoshi btc + fee. I'll withdraw quick. Risk on casino. 

[JohnTravel 4]

I'm not addicted, I have casino life as a job and an alternative way to make money. If I lose, I give myself time, I wait for my head to cool down and then I'll come back to start over.

I do not stay so much in the game, when I reach a limit I stop and do other things.

[DreamStage 32]

At the moment i am addicted as COMMITED in achieving a certain goal and meta.

Sometimes when gambling hard i will be addicted surely but nevertheless will always try to find a balance between my greedyness and strategies.

I will also accomodate my commitment with my addiction and make my way into the profit aspect of the game.
