^Definitely right and I agree gambling addiction is not solely determined by winning money. People can become addicted regardless of their financial outcomes, depending on their emotional and psychological vulnerabilities, motivations, and external factors.
We should need to understand that gambling addiction is a serious issue influenced by a combination of factors, including individual behavior, psychology, environment, and personal circumstances. By emphasizing responsible gambling practices and addressing the underlying reasons for engaging in gambling, we can work towards preventing and avoiding the risks of addiction.

When the gambler do the deposit by managing the funds,then he won't get addicted to the gambling.Most of the people get addicted by trying to recover some loss in the gambling.If the gamblers manage the funds it is more then enough.The gambling should follow with the time gap is more essential one.My friend is gambler over a decade,but he is not an addict to the gambling.Because he had fix the gambling as the game and not expect any win from the gambling,but he get happy with all his winning and keep the winnings for future bet.

Gambling addiction is simply irresponsible gambling. And it begins not when you win some money but when you as a gambler chooses not to set your affairs in order. For example, gambling without being on a budget, gambling without following a schedule or a timeframe, gambling to cope with your life's problem, taking up gambling as a form of employment. There are people on both sides of the coin who have won money over and over again and didn't get addicted to gambling and there are those who are yet to win a lot of money and are struggling with gambling addiction.

New gamblers turning to gambling addiction can happen because they have not had the experience of overcoming the urge to continue gambling and it has happened a lot.
But if new gamblers see that they have a high chance of developing a gambling addiction, they should be able to control it by not gambling again to avoid the urge.
But it seems that only a few can do it because some new gamblers are increasingly interested in continuing to come to casinos and play other gambling games.
Let's hope gambling addicts can decrease again in the following years.

Winning through gambling give some special feelings and I don't know about new gambler turning to addiction through their first winning but if the gambler understands the major concept of the game the chance of the new gambler being addicted is small and from what I see most gamblers seems to understand gambling concept because the rate of gambling addict in 2023 have dropped.

Losing will either make you more greedy or make you go home without any take home profit, the greed starts here and I'm also guilty of this. We might not accept that being greedy is like this but eventually once you cannot control your emotion, that can still be consider as greed. Winning will make you more eager to get more pleasure, and I see this as a normal result once you gamble. What you can do to control this is to be more responsible and to stay focus on your strategy and goal, the moment you enter a casino or any site, you should be more ready for whatever the outcome is.

One of the worst-case of gambling addiction is always traceable to a user trying to chase a particular directions this can be in either ways both chassing loses vs chasing winning whatever direction you face it,  it always leads to bad aftermath experience and cases of slidding into gambling addictions.

Winning your first game could be a trap to gamble more and excessively,  but the gambler with an indept understanding of this will always walk away when he wins his first strides and take a long break to re strategize for the next game.

While you could be right, I say reckless gambling really starts after that first 2 losses. People can easily just dip and take their cuts after the first win, I do that all the time and yet there are instances when I let my greed get the better of me and I continue gambling away since I don't mind losing the bankroll anyway. Losing 2 games in a row however is more mentally pressuring since you've already lost a considerable amount of money by then, one that you couldn't recover outright in a single win. So people tend to go ham during these situations and actually push through instead of cutting their losses and stopping from there, which as we all expect leads to them losing more money than they know how to work with.

I have found out that anytime I keep betting to gain the past loses I had, I mostly end up in loses because of the greedy spirit that will keep telling me to gamble more. We need to stop chasing our loses because this is one of the ways casinos do make money from gamblers without them noticing that they are choosing the wrong steps that could yield crazy loses.

Once we made loses, we should learn how to admit our loses and chase the next opportunity we might have as a gambler. Looking back is one of the ways we can finally make loses that could reap us of our entires winnings and savings so far. Those that had taken the decision of chasing there loses most time end in bettered and inevitable loses.
 

When the person starts chasing the loss he'd made. That's when he takes a dive deeper and will probably end up gambling more and losing more as well. At first, he will look for strategies to win and tries these strategies with some amount of money. The next he will try another game as well he never knew before just thinking he would win.

It doesn't really start with a win before a person will try over and over but usually, it is after a win that drives his hope.

you play for action and the blessing of lady luck.

you know you should lose

you lie and think you will win

when you do win more often than you should you think you have been blessed because lady luck loves you.

You actually saw this from the right angle unlike so many that are arguing Op who saw this from a very different angle.
Winning $200 will be a motivation that more efforts will land you $500 winning and  when you chase the $500 winning and eventually earns it, you will have more conviction that those who wins $10k are not luckier than you are.
Before you will realise, you will start chasing the $10k and forget the losses that you encounter in the process of the chase.
That is how addiction starts and nothing more than that.

The state where you lose self control then you will slide into addiction as you keep going into the game frequently whether you are winning or not. In all lives endeavor, if there is no self control then the person will act irrationally because he has no control of his actions. A bettor on a winning mode will keep playing irrespective of his win likewise he who is losing just because the will power of control has been lost.

That's drive and greed. We often disregard the reality that losing is more certain than winning. Experiencing victory gives us the drive that something impossible have been achieved, which pushes us to go further. On the other hand is greed or seeking more of what you have earned not realizing how long it took to be in such instance. This is where gamblers tend to be reckless and where frustrations arise once that drive and greed are not met with the intention which is to win more. We tend to disregard the consequences of our actions once we're on the rush.Whether it is chasing losses or wanting to win, we all have one goal which is to earn money out of gambling. It is indeed easy to set standards for ourselves but will never be too easy to apply.

Yes, at that moment is when the player has to reason and understand that when he is in a casino the chances of winning for a player are low, there will always be the house advantage and that is something that exists in every casino, in fact, I have Seeing that some novice players don't give much importance to this, and they keep playing, and since they win and win, they keep playing until they start the losing streak and they don't stop, when they lose everything, they don't like the result, obviously after seeing so much money that you have had and then you are left with nothing, the idea that the casino stole it will haunt the player's mind and some do not react well to the casino because they start to complain, that after having so much money it is impossible for them to lose that, that the game is fixed, that everything is a fraud, but what they do not realize is that they do not take into account the main thing, which is the house advantage and that they made the wrong bets, that it is very difficult for just one person managed to beat an established casino.

Sometimes this kind of thing is difficult for many people to understand and I understand them, because sometimes that feeling of guilt can lead them to a moment of great regret, of having remorse, of not having been in control and not having the guts. to leave the game when he had that money, because if he had left it up there, he would have left with the money, and the casino would not have claimed anything from him, sometimes those things happen when there is not enough maturity in the casinos, here Who hasn't had losses that make them almost cry? I think that we have all had big losses and that even so, they have known how to get up and move on, because they know and understand that the greatest probability is that, that the casino is not like an ATM, nor does it regulate money, or is it a NGO, but they are an industry that is dedicated to creating "ADULT" fun so that they can have experiences where the adrenaline accelerates with everything.

There are many, many ways to get addicted to gambling op. Winning is just one of them. Chasing losses, trying out a huge variety of games etc are some other ways to completely lose yourself in the world of gambling.

Inner will-power or self-control is the only way to control any form of gambling addiction if you ask me.

It will motivate you to go on and if you proceed and follow your motivation yes it will likely lead to addiction but if you experience a lot of losses early on, that will stop your addiction, addiction happens when you treat gambling as your scapegoat the amount of time will accumulate and so is your spending and that will lead to addiction.
Winning will not get you into addiction right away, but giving it more time and internalizing the gambling experience, will lead you to addiction.
So every gambler should watch out for what they are thinking if they're still thinking about their bets and what would they bet when they are still in their work.

You see the best example of this, when you look at the way that Slots are designed. It will allow you to constantly win small amounts in the form of free spins. 

So your body (brain) release small amounts of endorphins that makes you feel good.. and you get addicted to those endorphins. This is where the addiction sets in... because you get addicted to those endorphins... not the actions of gambling it self. 

Ive also noticed this, but before people are really smart, they are just hitting the new account luck or algorithm of the casino, and they will start to withdraw their money, but right now we can't do it because of the betting requirements before you can withdraw. This kind of stuff makes you win your first bet, but you still need to reach specific values or betting requirements, which leads you to deposit and play more. Casinos are really smart right now; they make you win and make you feel lucky so that you can deposit more, and then that is where you start losing.

sometimes this is a trap from some gambling sites lol.

to let us win at first , then take your money forever
