A gambling addict who does not want to get rid of addiction immediately will definitely get worse and will lose all valuables and savings.
Especially slot games which are faster increasing gambling addicts as I saw in the city say that there are some young people who don't know about gambling but after seeing slot advertisements he wants to try and ends up addicted to selling various valuables and houses.

Yeah, that's the thing, a gambling addict can cause a lot of damage to his life financially in a single session.

Even an alcoholic usually requires some time to actually make some permanent damage, but with a casino you can lose all your life's savings in a single night.

It's really something extremely bad if not kept under control.

yes, that's the point
there's no use for hundreds of right decisions if you risk it all in one bad decision

avoiding big losses is a principle that should be carved in everyone's souls and never broken

otherwise there'll be a lot of pain.

Its everything talks about acceptance because if you are already that prepared that you are bound to experience losses in the thing you've been dealing with then you wont really be making yourself that impulsive on the time that you would lose. When we do talk about gambling then of course it would really be accompanying that losses which is something normal. Dont put up into your mind that on the time that you do gamble
you would really be able to assure winning because that cant really be that possible. This is why you should really be having that realistic approach when it comes to gambling not only
limited to slots but also in other game types as well.

Losing is part of the game because it cant be called a game if you arent losing and it doesnt really impose such risks which we know that it is completely that opposite on what gambling really is.,

totally agree
like with juggling, losing is part of the way to learn and to "win"

dealing with impermanence and being able to deattach are pratices that buddhism teaches that can be quite good for everyday life nowadays...
