"Gambling is an opportunity to experience life's greatest moments and to turn a profit in the process."
Great words!
I even admire how concisely and accurately you described what all gamblers know and feel as if subconsciously!
But it’s true, sometimes a player even looks forward to the evening, for example, in order to sit down at the computer after work, relax and start playing. And immediately, as from a clean slate, emotions and feelings arise from successes and losses, too, of course. I know for myself that when, during work, which is boring and I'm tired, even the thought that it will soon be possible to play calmly, when no one interferes or distracts, helps to quickly finish the working day at the main job. This, of course, is the attraction of all gambling.
That's exactly what I think many people who love gambling think.
