Probably, for most gamblers who are not addicted, this is not even a trick or strategy, but a standard behavior. In general, using this example, you can see the difference between a healthy person and a patient with gambling addiction. If a person is constantly losing and has lost the entire bankroll, it does not mean that he is addicted. If a person wins (that is, he has achieved his goal) and, nevertheless, continues to play, then, as in the first case, he loses everything, then this person is addicted.
I always believe that someone with a healthy gambling harbit must have self control and know when to stop either it's going his way or not, because the purpose of gambling if for fun, so when an individual deviate from such practice, and start looking at the only the monetary aspect of it, that's where it's wrong, because in the process addiction can set him, so knowing when to stop and when to abstain completely is one trait that all gamblers with sound minds all have, that's why I think that the best approach to gambling is by setting an amount you wouldn't supercede when gambling or gambles only on weekends, with such strategy, you will certainly be in control of your gambling harbit, not the gambling harbit controling you.
That's the way it is. Another interesting aspect is that a gambling addict has only himself to blame for his addiction. Since his addiction was caused by thirst for excitement (thrills) and greed (and this is generally one of the sins), that is, from a religious point of view, he is a sinner who should be punished with suffering until he overcomes his sin.
It is important that gambling itself is not sinful, but greed is. An important feature of gambling addiction is that, for example, unlike drug addiction, gambling addiction cannot be forcibly inculcated, whereas it is possible to force a victim into a drug by injecting a drug into him. Of course, most drug addicts are also voluntary, but there is still a difference.
So the ability to stop in time is extremely important, and this is what distinguishes a responsible player from a gambler suffering from gambling addiction. For clarity, we can compare an ordinary person who knows how to drink moderately, while maintaining adequate, and an alcoholic with a swollen liver who is lying in the mud deranged. In the same way, a decent gambler can play for his own pleasure for years in a casino, but an addicted gambler no longer even enjoys winning (he immediately loses them), he is simply a slave to his addiction.
