I can relate on the opposite side. For me, it's easy to walk away when I'm winning but when I'm losing, I don't want to walk away, I'll continue to gamble until I'll be able to win by my losses

problems like this are often faced by gamblers where they prefer to keep gambling even if they lose compared to walking away from it. it can be said to be greed to win, where someone does not have full control over themselves when they lose at gambling, they only care that they have to win at that time. this condition is quite a bad thing for gamblers, because if it continues it will become an addiction and the longer it goes on, the worse the condition will be if it is left.
A gambler cannot be called an addict if he can stop at any point. Those who are addicted gamblers can never take losing easily. Even if they lose, they feel that they have to recover their lost money immediately. As a result of their misconception, they are gambling day after day. Some to recover his losses and others to win. Either way those who lose control over their gambling become addicted gamblers. There are some addicted gamblers who gamble after a loss with the intention of recovering that loss and eventually lose their entire bankroll. Those who wish to conduct normal and healthy gambling must stay away from addiction and have good money management skills.
