I find it hard to believe completely because who doesn't like to make some more money even if it is not needed.
If you knew the exact sum you were going to loose gambling, and you are the type that they say " gambles for fun", will you find it fun loosing that money still? will you return another day in awareness of how much you will loose and still want to loose for fun?
It might seem so, a had to believe conviction but one basic truth you must realise is, those who gamble for fun are used to making very huge stakes or at least, that's what goes with me and another thing is, the sum of what might be lost on this account, isn't lost in a single bet or adventure.
Let's look at it this way, what do we really benefit from going to some paid park or resort just to have some fun or even a treat. We pay to do it and aside from the fact that, you might get your moneys worth in the form of treat or the joys you might derive haven't been in the park, your money is gone too. So, you you on your team and not just your team but then, your perception about a game and then, it goes sideways or comes through, you might get the satisfaction in your closest to some accurate prediction. That could be fun in a way and if you make some bucks off it, the better it is.
