I think gambling addiction starts when we consider it a recreation and that's when the bookie starts running his tricks to at least give us a win and in the end after getting a few wins of course then addiction will start to spread in our brain.
On the contrary, an addiction in gambling would be quite hard to achieve if you consider gambling to be a recreational activity in which you sparingly indulge yourself in.
And I doubt the bookies have any control on the outcome of matches played. So I don’t know how they would get tricky and allow one to win a few before bringing the hammer down.
Obviously, the drive to win back the monies spent would cross your mind. That’s not an addiction. It’s only natural to want to win more than you lose. But we should have a limit and know just when to stop playing. That way, we could keep addiction at bay.
