A beginner wont get addicted if he learns the math behind betting odds and casino games
Tbh most of people ignore it because the adrenaline rush from gambling is too much
Even if you know the math behind casino games or probability behind casino games, it wont help you to avoid addiction.
Addiction is more about mindset, emotion, and everything on how you deal with your own gambling habit.
Lets say you do not know the math behind the game, but you are so good in controlling your own gambling habits, you'll be able to avoid addiction.
Of course knowing the probability is good, because it will raise the awareness that our winning chance in gambling is smaller than the losing chance.
