Do you means those guys doesn't win anything at all? Can they not be lucky to win jackpots?

On this board, we are always referring addiction as a terrible thing but does it mean that those addicted gamblers doesn't win money, are they only bounded to losses upon losses?

Not really that gambling addicts don't win, they do win but still find themselves losing all they've won because addiction makes people not to be conscious about their spending so in most cases when an addicted gambler win certain amount of money instead of going home and use the money won for important things rather than gamble they will still end up losing all either after winning or they can still decide to continue betting and at the end every thing is gone again. When we lay so much emphasis on the negative and bad aspects of gambling addiction it doesn't mean that they are not lucky sometimes but due to the fact that even when they get lucky they still stupidly make several mistakes again that is the major problem.

Of course, in fact in gambling there is no difference between gamblers who are addicted and ordinary gamblers who come with the intention of just looking for entertainment, meaning that the chances of winning apply to all typical gamblers regardless of how they treat their gambling activities, but yes, as you said, one The difference between gamblers who are addicted and those who are not addicted is in terms of the way they take action after winning, where they always find it difficult to ignore their greed, in the sense that when they win, they continue the game by increasing the risk of betting, which in the end results in this action. brought them back to defeat.

So it doesn't mean that addicted gamblers always experience defeat, but as a result of the wrong way they treat their gambling, in the end, losses occur more often than wins because they treat their gambling activities wrongly.

Yeah most people misinterprets gambling addicts to be those that doesn't win at all but yet they get money from other sources to finance their gambling but it's not like that and there are some addicts that even wins more than an ordinary gambler that plays occasionally because there are higher chances of a continuous gambler to win just that at the end they still end up losing all their winnings and all their efforts goes in vain so gambling addicts wins and apart from those set of gamblers that doesn't give up on an amount they have lost and continue chasing losses till they get addicted if not gambling addicts are even the higher winners but in the quest to win more out of greed makes them look so foolish after losing everything.
