From my understanding favoritism will not lead towards addiction. Maybe some 20% might get into addiction through favouritism. Most of the gamblers just spend when their favourite team or specific players are there in the event. This will be available periodically, upon which there is low chance to get into addiction through favouritism.

What's your basis on which only 20% of gamblers with favorite games later lead to addiction? Nah, just kidding. I understand that it was just a mere estimation Grin

. When it comes to sports betting, it applies somehow since your favorite team does not have a match all the time thus giving you a hindrance to have a betting addiction.

But I think it was a different story when it comes to card games or other games. For example, if playing poker is your favorite, then tendency is that you will get addicted eventually because the casino is always open and just waiting for you. See? There are no restrictions at all which can prevent you to become an addict unless you're disciplined enough to control yourself.
