Because gambling isn’t just about winning money — it’s about chasing the possibility of winning. The thrill, the dopamine hit, the illusion of control — it all keeps the brain hooked. Losses often trigger what's called the “gambler’s fallacy,” where people believe a win is “due.” Add a bit of ego, a bit of denial, and boom — it’s a loop. It’s not logic; it’s emotion wrapped in luck.
