We call gambling as entertainment because we are not addicted and must have emotional control in gambling, there are many factors gamblers have lost their money because they are greedy and see gambling as a machine to multiply money, they ignore the risks but do not realize that only luck can win the game, not your odds predict because it is proven that OP has lost $1.4m balance from predicting high odds of winning.
Maybe for now you are not yet a gambling addict and can still exercise self-control and have certain betting limits.
But I'm not sure you can be like this forever because in gambling everyone who starts can become a crazy gambler where he will no longer think about risks that have no limits and will never be able to exercise self-control.
Just look at some time in the future, you will do all of that in pursuit of a victory, even worse, maybe you will spend big money on each bet.
I can say this because that's what actually happens to gamblers out there.
