Why Do Gamblers Keep Playing Even After Losing?
Simply like it is difficult for an alcoholic or drug addict to stop using their drug of choice, it is also difficult for gambling addicts to "just stop".
Gamblers get a rush of adrenaline both when they win and when they lose. Players are encouraged to continue gambling because of the uncertainty involved. A compulsive gambler will think they are one bet away from the jackpot, and many people think that gambling is somewhat a game of skill.
