You're right. It is better to stop gambling temporarily whenever we have a problem (especially financial problem). It may influence much our mentality, we may easily get emotional when we have a problem. That condition will make us to have no self-control when we play gambling and we may have no calm mind. This possibly leads us to gamble carelessly and we spend all the money in a day. Sure, there will be no luck if we are unable to play properly. Instead of having good luck, we may experience bad luck in the whole day.
Yes, taking a bit of a break might help mentally to the addicted gambler.
But having said that, the odds will continue to be exactly the same.
It doesn't matter if you stop for one minute, one day, or one year, the next time you play you'll get the same odds as before.
Some people think they somehow reset after they visit the casino another day. Mentally yes though.
