I say these two words are the same as never stop gambling.
chasing defeat and seeking closure are the same thing. in the end the gambler will lose continuously and get big wins that are not worth the loss after that the gambler will continue to bet increasing the bet amount to get back all his losses but that is something in vain and lose even more.
it will go on and on never finding closure and always chasing defeat.
Winning in gambling is hard so chasing losses is hard too. It can be a never-ending journey for those who have a big losses but what if they get lucky one day and hit the jackpot which makes them recover all of their losses? I think some of them are committed to stop their gambling habit and use the money on something that can provide them with consistent income like opening up a business.
Getting big wins aside from losses are better than not getting anything at all. At least it might help us to progress faster. We should only control our selves and don't over bet next time because once we lose, it will only make our journey difficult to be finished.
