Adrenaline surges fueled by wins and the sting of frustration after losses can easily hijack our decision-making.  Imagine a gambler on a winning streak, feeling invincible, convinced that luck is a permanent companion.  This "extraordinary euphoria" can lead to reckless decisions, like "going all in" and losing everything previously gained.

Losses, especially consecutive ones, are equally detrimental.  The urge for "revenge betting," fueled by frustration, can be a recipe for disaster.  Think of a boxer, blinded by rage after a knockdown, throwing wild punches instead of employing strategic defense.

Gambling is not a game of chance alone; it's a battle between logic and emotion.  Successful gamblers understand this.  They set limits, walk away after losses, and avoid the allure of "revenge bets."
