They will not go to recover as the chance that they will continue to play and lose the money back after getting that chance of making some good decent winning streak is very possible, as greed will continue to chase them and will start dominating inside their minds, that's the common problem when a person thinks that they wanted to win more while playing.
Better to keep the intention as doing it purely for entertainment and for killing some spare time to use spare money for each session that you play.
That is because of the greed of those who still want more wins. However, if they realize they have won, they should not chase after victory again because they will not always be able to win again. They even have to think about ending their gambling game because they could experience even more losses if they continue gambling.
The thought of winning more wins is normal but if we have good self-control, we will not do that. We will remember that gambling is an activity we do in our free time so it is not aimed at winning bigger wins.
You really nail it when you talked about how complicated the link is between human desire and gambling. Because people are naturally pushed by desire and ambition, they often see gambling as the way to get what they want. Its an easy way out in a world that often seems unfairly stacked. But those of us who are smart know that this golden ticket often comes with chains, dont you think? Chains of addiction, loses that keep piling up, and broken dreams.
The irony lies in the perception. If possible, gambling should only be a fun activity that gives you a short thrill. But the moment it morphs into a recovery mission for losses, it turns toxic. Aggressively toxic. Realists know how important it is to set limits and boundaries, while dreamers want to get rich quickly. What is this wisdom? It's not a sudden realisation. It requires constant self-reflection, constant warnings, and a strong grasp on how people act. The real game is getting good at this. Believe me, it's tougher than any gambling game.
That's because they see how easily people can get bigger wins and some of them can even get them with small bets. That makes them think about continuing to try and encourages them to continue gambling because they still think about the people who won. They should be able to think that it is all because of luck and not because gambling will give them a win. Not that. If they decide to continue gambling, it will only make the chains of addiction tighten and they will only experience more losses.
Gambling is supposed to be a fun activity because that is the purpose of gambling. Only we make it a way to make money from gambling, which is the mistake we make. People who gamble more and more often will only become addicted to gambling and it will even become worse than before because they cannot realize that they are too deep in gambling. They need more than just the desire to cure their gambling addiction to quit gambling.
