Agree with you. Success in gambling of one who plays gambling does not make the person not to be addicted. Addiction in gambling is one who can't stay without playing gambling it doesn't mean if the game comes out successfully or not . One who succeeds in gambling must be addicted to gambling because I don't think it will be easy for the person to stop gambling. People get addicted to gambling because of the money involved in it, if success can make someone play gambling all time that means it is addiction.

Yeah, that's the thing. People do get addicted at gambling, because it is fun to win money basically.

And people win from time to time when gambling.

The problem is that people lose more than what they win, so it's not a great idea in the end.

The main problem is that people don't notice how much they are losing when they get some wins in between unless someone is keeping track of all their wagers and have a record of their wins and losses and then have an estimate at the end of the month or a year. But, most gamblers don't do that and only those who are responsible gamblers will keep track of their gambling activities and how much they are winning or losing in every gambling session.

So, an addicted gambler simply doesn't even know how much they are losing because they have gotten too deep into it. As you said, winning in gambling is fun and that is what addicted gamblers see only, and they don't even see that they have gambled all their money at the end of the day.
