I'm sure many can relate to this illustration. Almost most of the crypto gamblings, when there is a new depositor on their platform, will first give it a win as a trap for new gamblers.
I also think i'm suited to pattern 3 because that's how it started. You'll experience to win in gambling and got hooked thinking the same result might happen again and so it's the start of your gambling activity. However, i'm not the type who will chase my losses because I can't accept what happened. I still gamble because it's fun and entertaining and that's the reason why I keep playing. Of course it's really nice to win but we know it can't happen often as the house always win.
Thus it's best not to have high hopes so you can control yourself to refrain from depositing to chase back what you have lost.
I think it depends. There are people that once they win, they will never show up again. It's amazing that they also knew that it was only a kind of lure that once they came back, their previous won are going to be confiscated again and then they will be forced to deposit their own money in hopes of winning it back. I think these kind of people are already born to be wise in life. Many call it beginners luck and believes on it than the other way around.
Well, I guess there is nothing we can do much about them. I know you are treating gambling for fun but you said keep on coming back from it? I think addiction can also build up there. It's important that we still limit ourselves.
There's no wrong on still continuing to gamble as long you are really still in good control in your finances and behavior then i dont see anything wrong or making yourself that addicted.
Gambling wont really be a problem if you do really have that good self control because if not then you would really be having a huge problem which would really be in related with addiction.
Dont make yourself get control nor tolerate these things because it isnt really something worth on destroying on someones life because of gambling.
Everything should be in control or in moderation.
