We still playing gambling even we know the chances to become addicting will wide open, but some of us always remember that they need to get out from the gambling as soon as possible if something goes wrong.
yes that is what im doing right now . if ever i won in a single bet i force myself to stop for a while and then i go back again playing after a week or two . that is to ensure that i can enjoy my winnings and after i spend it all , i will then enter the gambling scene again to try my luck but if i manage to loose i instantly accept my looses and move on . simple as that .
the danger will came from both odds and addiction . thats why you must aware on what games you are playing , better if you can do a research to check its odds or probability of winning . then control your self to overcome addiction .
I hope that you can do as what you say because you will get tempting to continue gamble and that word (go on, place bigger, you will win another money) will keep sounding in your ear. It's happened to me in the past and without I realize, I continue the game and after some round, I played, I lose everything lol.
But right now, I don't play as what I did before and I still learning to not listen to that sound and I am glad that I can quit gambling whenever I want.
