The eagerness to earn profit and to regain all losses is always the reason why we hard to stop playing gambling.
This two could be a different thing and it could be done in different approach.
If you think of just winning back your loses, then you will surely lose as eventually you will become desperate, however if you focus on your purpose which is to win, your approach is more professional as you are also willing to accept your loses in case you lose and give up that goal because you accepted you have no skills to win in gambling consistently.
It also becomes my problem when I'm playing gambling and its totally hard to stop especially if keep on winning.
I think it's more positive compared to not having the control to stop even if you are already losing.
One that I have learned as a gambler is to know when you need to take the risks because I want to apply it in my trading activity but right now I still studying it. Another thing that I have learned is how can you manage your money like how much money will you allocate to play gambling.
Gambling is not only a game of luck because there are a lot of games where there is no house edge, if you really have the skills, you can capitalize it and be smart and willing to take the risk.
