A lot of gamblers gamble not for fun or the pleasure of it, they engage in gambling to make money from it and this is why many of them easily get addicted along the process. The mindset of a real gambler will always be to win their bets and if they don’t win, they become angry and want to try again to see if they can win in their next trial, this is how a full time gambler thinks. If they happen to keep losing and have no risk management in the money they’re risking to bet, they end up becoming addicted through chasing of their losses after they play and keep losing with extra cash with them. The problem with addiction is that you don’t get to know when you’re already addicted to it until you’ve gone too far into it that you can’t back off and have to fight your addiction through again which is the most difficult part of being addicted in the first place. Not getting in is hard, but getting out is the hardest part of being a gambler.
