In some cases gamblers who end up addicted always start with mistakes in putting hopes and expectations so that it makes them suffer a lot of problems, especially in terms of finance. Of course it's really not advisable to put your hopes or expectations on gambling because after all this is a probability activity which means it has absolutely no certainty of anything other than chance, so you better keep yourself safe with some precautions, because that's all that really matters.
there are lots of mistakes gamblers make that make them addicted and you have explained one of the reasons and it makes sense, but another thing apart from placing hope in gambling is the mindset about the big win they get can trigger a gambler to become curious and want to experience the same sensation. after getting a big win and gamblers will ignore managing money well because they only think they want to get the same big win as before so they become addicted after money management fails.
advice is always given here that dont think too much about something big from gambling because winning is just luck that doesn't know when it will come and when it will go so far that we can't catch up. however, there are still many gamblers who ignore these small things which can have a big influence on their gambling, and addiction has even increased in recent years because they fail to manage their finances, ignoring any advice from other people.
so from this story we should be able to conclude that any advice from other people is very important to listen to and always dont ignore discipline in managing finances so as not to lose control.
I think it is still related to the statement that I have previously conveyed about hope, so the scenario is like this, usually someone will feel an extraordinary sensation when the first win they get in their gambling especially if the win is a large amount, in conditions like that if they cannot hold the sensation so as not to overdo it then obviously a change in mindset will occur, they assume "it looks like this is a good place to earn" and then it is clear that they will put greater hopes by pursuing wins like the previous one because their confidence becomes higher. In such a situation, it is clear that hope overcomes common sense and that is what makes it difficult for them to think about implementing the controls and limits that they have previously established.
That's good advice, understanding the concept of gambling actually along with how luck works really needs to be emphasized and learned, believing that the big win that was successfully obtained was a "coincidence" will make them not put excessive expectations. For those gamblers who still ignore some important points in gambling that are useful for prevention I think it's better to let them go if they are stubborn and don't want to listen, because after all they will feel a significant impact which will usually make them regret it which might finally restore their consciousness a little.
