"Sometimes winning isnt good at all". This is the phrase i always got in my mind whenever i saw someone or read something that pertains to gambling addiction. I see that people are so greedy and do anything to win. My observation is that, people experience winning ofcourse in gambling so they take many chances and risk bets to win again. Either the win rate is just 2 to 3 times per 15 bets, they are still getting hooked on it. Winning even once triggers addiction because people are greedy in nature. There are just people who can control themselves and there are not.

Despite the fact that "Greed" is human nature but it is the only word which is enough to explain gambling addiction.
I agree that only a single win can lead to addiction if a person can't control his/her emotions.

Indeed greediness has the ability to trigger gambling addiction. Most at times, gamblers get into losses because of greediness and when trying to recover their looses they get into addiction. Looses cannot be recover in gambling, what is lost is lost, as an attempt to get it back welcome addiction.

That is true. We see many people become greedy when they saw a chance to win and they will make a big bet in one time. But their plan doesn't always work because it will be difficult to beat the house if we don't have luck. They cannot control themselves in gambling, and that will trigger them to spend more money because they hope that in the next round, they will win the game.
