Sadly a gambling addict doesn't understand what's self control and discipline, he will try to gamble as long as he have money and will try anything to get money. If every gambler understand about self control and read every warning message on the casino, there will be no gambling addict.
I think they're born to become gambling addict that used to make the casino's owner become rich, make a debt collector to work etc.
Agree, the mistake of a gambler is not being able to control himself and be disciplined. I actually like to play gambling-like games, like poker, dominoes etc. But I play gambling, there are still limits and I can control myself because I consider it only for entertainment. Every now and then I want to try to play when I lose, but think again, because thinking too much eventually makes me lazy to make plans to play gambling. Because for me there is a fund limit for playing gambling, if the limit is up then I will stop and play again the next day. To play gambling, you must be smart in making postal funds that must be issued. Don't let when we lose we can't control it and in the end we do it again.
To me, the psychology of a gambling addict, he will stop gambling, not when he wins big, but when he has nothing left to bet.
