It is a sign of being addicted in gambling. I honestly got the same experience of it before but not too much, as I remember it happened to me only two times, I had a weekly campaign that I joined before and after I got payed every week I spend it all on gambling after I lose all of it in that week, and bet again the other week with a thought that I will recover what I had lose, but ends up losing all of it
I am happy that you learnt your lesson. It is fine to lose money if you gained such a valuable thing. Gambling can never be a source of income and this is the reason why it cannot also help you or anyone in recovering the lost money. So the best is to not play this game but is fail to do so then better is to not at least try recovering what cant be recovered.
You are right, usually people think that they get their money back and they gamble more after they lost but they lose more money in comparison with the beginning.
When you ask gamblers, they mostly have got this answer to reply. There is a greedy factor involved in this gambling thing. Once you lose money from game, you are tryingto get things back. But soon, you might understand it isnt so easy to get this. Then you try more money to grasp big chances and opportunities but still everything just ends up being more indulged in this gambling.
Indeed, the aggressiveness and greediness will conquer your minds, when you are still at green you ill push more to win much bigger, and if you face defeats you will add more to your bankroll and try to recover faster, realizing that you are too much engage and unable to control your emotions, after
losing everything that's the time where you will be stress too much and thinks to stop and quit a natural reactions when losing huge amount.
