i like what you're thinking but at some point gambling is fun when you're winning but when you're starting out then loses all the time? i don't think you'll get addicted to gambling. it's fun if you're having fun and won but if you're stakes are getting bigger and starting to sell things and owe money, well, the person is addicted. Especially on the thought that he/she can bring back what he/she loses that's why he/she will still gambling thinking that he/she will win and get even.
It is fun both ways, not only when you are winning but also when you are losing. The key point is not to place big bets. If you do this mistake then of coure you will get addicted because you will try and think every day who you are going to get your money back and you will play and continue play until then. But guess what, the possibilities of taking them back are too little.
