A lack of  satisfaction and high expectations is what makes some gamblers to still continue playing after having a win that was supposed to be taken as the achievement of the day but they get unsatisfied with the amount bethinking that maybe if they could try another bet again it might get them lucky to win again but it most times ends in loss. For the fact that I was lucky to win ones or probably twice at a row doesn't make it certain that I might continue in the winning streaks. Sometimes that one win after many times of losses for the day is just fortune own way of smiling at us so we don't go back home completely emptied.
Yep, a gambler who gambles only to earn money from it barely gets satisfied with the winnings no matter how big the amount they've won is, they will always try to increase their winnings and in that pursuit, they lose what they've won if they aren't wise enough to stop at the right time and in most cases, greed takes over the mind of a gambler who is gambling just for the sake of profits and don't consider gambling a source of entertainment or a time killer for them.

People who are gambling for gains and have been losing constantly don't consider a win to be good enough if it's insignificant to cover all the losses they had to bear so far because they would want to recover their losses before they end the session but in most cases, they end up losing everything which will be the end of the session for them.
The main reason why majority of gamblers starts gambling from day one is to make money, and when they win only very little its very hard to be satisfied, someone close to me have once called a car dealer to buy a ride when the gambling match was still ongoing, and in the end he lost the money, imagine gambling doing such thing to you, I knew that people have high expectations from gambling that's why they are used to getting rammed by losses.

The lower your expectations from gambling, the better your results will be, and you will be able to control your greed too, people are too greedy, trying to turn $10 into a million dollars, they will add so many games on their ticket, hoping that all the games comes positive in the end, this habits ruins the mind and make someone lose hope on themselves.  

It's not easy to get rich, make sure your way is fair enough, not some superstition way of living, when I gamble with $10 I don't dream to net even a thousand dollars, I have took $20 profit before and I stop gambling for the day, it's free extra $10 and it's a win for me.
