It drags me to gamble too, but also important reason why i and other gamblers gamble is because they can earn a lot of money this way even if it's risky
Gambling is addictive mentally. The worst thing for a beginner is to win a large amount of money. Later, even when losing, is expecting that the next big win comes easily and work out their losses. However, usually this does not happen and people are getting only more addicted.
Because that is what most people's nature and when a person see's money he will literally take it if no one is looking and if there would be free money pop up on his face he would just literally grab this kind of opportunity, that is most people ways in gambling too, if a person would win in gambling and would really like to win again he would definitely keep on playing or betting.
