I feel excitement every time when I lose or keep winning. Do you also feel excitement when you win or when you lose?

Lets make it clear first, is that real excitement or something that we usually call by greed but we do not realize it? LOL
Some time we cant differentiate it when we are dealing with gambling, we feel that we are excited but in fact it is just our greed when we want more while winning or when we want to recover after losses.
I will prefer to say that excitement is more about when I can enjoy the fun while playing the game without worrying about losing and winning.
Excitement can make you greedy and have excessive optimism in gambling. Over Excitement can even lead to medical related issues if you don't control your emotions immediately, I've read about a man who won a jackpot, had a cardiac arrest out of excitement and died at the spot without even enjoying a fine from the money.

Excitement is more of an influx of positive emotions in your brain and if you're not careful, it might lead you to negative decisions or outcomes. I wouldn't call it greed, I'll call it overly optimistic.
