I don't know about any other person but personally, I've come to discover that winnings that are unexpected excites the most than the winnings that are expected, regardless of the amount of money involved.
I agree with that too, unexpected winnings excites us the most or rather I should say excites me the most because the feeling that you don’t expect hits harder than the one you expect, it’s just like you earn an unexpected money and regardless of the amount won the joy is really different from the winnings you expect.
I have also experienced such feeling in the past where i was gambling and lost most of my bets and then i placed the last bet with the remaining money in my balance which was really just a small amount and because i was angry and furious i didn’t take the bet seriously and just picked some virtual games at random and left the game on after like about an hour i was surprised to see that i have won i was so happy like i never won a bet before.
