we as active gamblers today, already know how difficult it is to deal with gambling addiction. so as much as possible we must be able to limit and control ourselves so as not to get addicted.
While the thread might have crafted addiction to be the main cause of gambling losses,
I’m out here thinking, not having to gamble responsibly is what causes gambling losses.
There are those that treat gambling like a career and have a high level of objectivism about it. Addiction might have hit them to that place but, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are loosing. People don’t build a career based on losses. Not saying gambling is a career but, some profitable gamblers do see it that way.
