Generally not all people are the same, I never gamble under pressure. I face losses, because gambling with excessive tension will make the gambler more likely to become addicted. Because a gambler can play good gambles all the time but if he becomes addicted he faces losses. Because he knows I only have to win, gambling with such a target is never possible to win. I think that gambling should never be participated in with excessive tension because his mentality and emotions can lead to wrong decisions.
If a gambler becomes addicted, things will change for him as he'll start to lose more games more than he was doing when he wasn't addicted. Becoming addicted will affect your mindset, you can't think straight and won't have a strategy to follow that will make you not to spend too much money gambling. Gambling addicts don't care if they're winning or losing, all they're after is to gamble everytime to satisfy their desire to gamble, gambling addicts are always loss chasers.
It is as a result of chasing after losses that most individuals become addicted to gambling. Chasing losses will make you to be gambling more than you can handle and also you'll be spending more while you're gambling, you'll find yourself in debts as you'll be borrowing money just to satisfy your desire to gamble and you're not benefiting from the activity that you're doing all the time and also going broke too.
I agree with you, with gambling addiction of course it affects our mindset where our mindset will become more aggressive leading us to bigger losses, the feeling of wanting to recover from these losses encourages us to continue gambling. It's just that it will make us lose more money, which is very real when we are addicted to gambling. With addiction, they won't think about the risk of loss, and even if they win, it won't be the end of their gambling. When they win, they will be more enthusiastic and confident that they will be able to get a bigger win, but that certainly doesn't mean the risk of loss is gone, of course the risk of loss will be greater, as time goes by they will increasingly lose control of themselves. and that is detrimental to themselves.
chasing wins or recovering from losses indicates they lack self-control. Indeed, all gamblers definitely want a profitable win to get, but their way of getting that win is wrong, victory doesn't have to be pursued, because victory will come by itself if luck is on their side, it's just that many of them gamble and end up losing and have a grudge to gamble again with the aim of recovering losses, but this only makes them fall further into the cycle of gambling losses.
