Yes, that's true, because in my opinion the final results obtained in gambling determine us in the future, but the same thing can trigger us to gamble again. When we win, we will become addicted because the victory we get can make us believe that there will be another win to be had, even though it is not certain that we will get it, but if we are lulled into it then gambling can still be continued. and the final result of losing will make us curious, where we will gamble again even though we have lost because we are curious about the results that will happen with the next gambling even though we can be sure that the end will still be the same, namely losing.

because everyone's thoughts are easily influenced by profits, after all, who doesn't want profits, of course everyone wants the profits they can get, and gambling can make them forget themselves, where perhaps their initial intention to gamble has a target, However, when the target is achieved, everything can change from one moment to another, so it is not strange if someone continues gambling even though they have won.

This means that whatever results we get can trigger us to continue gambling, either immediately continuing gambling or going back to gambling another day. But it will still return to gambling because we have started to get addicted because of the winnings we get from gambling. But if we can be wise in responding to the results we get, we will not gamble too often because we already know what we will experience if we gamble too often. It will only make us look bad because we may lose even more money later. And that's the point if we have self-control because self-control is what can prevent us from wanting to continue gambling.

If they can restrain themselves well, they will not be affected by the winnings they get from gambling. They will understand that gambling is not to win but to have fun in their spare time. They will not forget themselves because they have won but will prevent themselves from continuing to gamble. They also don't have a target of winning and only remember that they need to gamble enough so that they don't lose too much.

I agree with you, whatever the outcome of the gambling we do, it can trigger us to continue gambling whether in one gambling session or continuously. the point is that everyone is easily influenced by gambling which can make them addicted to gambling, so you can be sure that someone who is just gambling for the first time is likely to become addicted to gambling regardless of the results of the gambling they do, because of the temptation of winning and multiplying their money. can be found, it is likely that they will think after gambling.

It's true what you said, if they have clear thinking, maybe they won't be easily influenced and won't easily get caught up in gambling, but in my opinion, restraining yourself is the same as self-control. So if they have good self-control then when they gamble they won't care about the results, but what is clear is that they won't be addicted to gambling again. and in my opinion people who have good self-control will definitely not think about gambling too hard, I mean they will not think about gambling first because there are still many things that can be done besides gambling which are more useful and important too and as you said they will bet enough so as not to lose too much.
