This might be a hard truth for some people but we are always looking for an edge an a thril
Hard truth for some gamblers but saying nobody wins in gambling is absurd. A cycle will go on like the example of OP but the fact that they have won in the first place proved that saying nobody wins is wrong.
Count in small amount or bigger amounts, everyone will experience win it's just up to us if we will be greedy to gamble more and won't control ourselves.
Right, there are times when we will be lucky and win through gambling. But as I see, most of us will continue to gamble especially after we are lucky enough and most of the time, we will be stopped after we have nothing left to continue our gambling. Indeed, there are people who will stop gambling after they win some profits, but the number of people like that can be so small, I guess.
That confidence we have when we win most of the time will remain. I've felt that before and don't want to leave the casino (online/offline) because I'm feeling that the aura of winning is still with me.
I know that most gamblers feel it this way and don't want to abandon it which pushes us to go through and gamble more. Whilst, we are thinking about that, we can't notice a little by little we're starting to lose.
