Of course, not everyone, even a very gambler, becomes addicted to these games.
I think that this can only happen to people who have a certain psychotype of personality. First of all, such people should have a strong emotional perception of failure, which literally leads a person to restore, as he sees it, the lost justice. In gambling, this is naturally a series of losses. This feeling constantly pushes such a person to commit emotional and ill-considered, and often just stupid things.

People should unbderstand that losing without hard feelings is also a skill. Those poor souls that were taught in their childhood "Don't accept failures" and stuff like that, they are living in hell when they are adults because of that upbringing.

And the second aspect for a human gambler to become addicted to gambling is the fact that he himself is a weak-willed person and is not able to really overcome his emotions. Indeed, probably among all gamblers there can be about 5% of such people.
And it is from them that really mentally ill people can appear over time, those who really need to be treated for such addiction.

Yes, fortunately most gamblers gamble responsibly.But we should not neglect the minority who suffer. We should try to help them. And this thread is one of our attempts in that.
