In my opinion, winning or losing is the same and in two conditions like this, everything can have an impact on addiction depending on how the gambler himself responds to each outcome of gambling.
Winning will provide additional capital and provide effect in wanting to win bigger, obviously this will keep gamblers on gambling sites or physical casinos longer until over time they become addicted.
Defeat also creates endless curiosity, even defeat can cause someone to be unable to accept the defeat and spend more money on betting.
This happens not only online but also offline, all forms of gambling activity have the same impact regarding addiction or addiction.

I actually don't agree with the notion that gambling can be used as place to invest just because when you win you can double your money, investing must be in the right place so that profits can be guaranteed and losses can be minimized.
In gambling, losing is something that is bound to happen, so can this be considered an investment?
Those people who think that gambling is place to invest must change their mindset so that in the future they can become gamblers who do not experience mental and financial problems.

I know they have jobs, they have businesses that can make money, but when they get to know gambling, they have to manage their finances well even though there is always clear, guaranteed source of income.
No matter how much money you make when you are careless in gambling, the end result is that it runs out with nothing left.
