I don't see any reason why should get their hope high in gambling, when you are fully aware they you winning is boils down to luck . Which means you can either win or lose . So not getting your expectation high would help in relieving the stress in gambling. And would help one to approach gambling in the right way , because most time alot folks always get their hope high in gambling because they believe they can get rich through gambling fast which may also trigger some sense of gambling addition too.
