I've never heard a term like this. I think this term is misleading when compared to the term in my country. In my country the term popular is the opposite of your country's term. "The biggest win in gambling is when you stop gambling." Very contradictory with the terms in your country

But I think it doesn't matter, in different countries there can be differences in thinking and culture. In my country gambling is still something illegal so most people give advice to stop gambling, apart from spending money gambling is illegal and can cause a person to face the law.

But whatever the difference, as long as we can control our finances and can be responsible in gambling, maybe it's not a serious problem.

To be honest I don't really know the term gambling like the OP said, even like you said. and, I rarely hear quotes about gambling. The point is, I don't really care. however there is something interesting, what the OP quoted, is contradictory like what you quoted too. yep, like you said. These two quotes have opposite meanings. but actually, it all comes back to each of us how we interpret it. even, if our thoughts are positive. the quote the OP said we can interpret as sarcasm. yep, so that we don't get carried away with excessive habit patterns. also, the quote you said that gets straight to the point.

But whatever it is, a quote is just a quote. after all, not everyone or gamblers will care about these quotes. and for the last point, we agree. as long as we are able to control our finances, and involve responsibility in gambling, everything is fine. as long as, this hobby does not harm other parties, even the closest family.
