🎰 Chance or fate? Why do games of chance attract us so much
Why do we return again and again to games where everything depends on luck? It's not just excitement. It's an attempt to find meaning in chaos. Our brain is designed in such a way that even in random events it strives to find patterns. One person notices that at the same hours he wins more often, another believes that his "lucky shirt" brings luck. In fact, these are not oddities, but quite understandable reactions. Games of chance cling to emotions, create a sense of control when in fact there is none. I highly recommend reading https://travelmax.in/recommendations/the-psychology-of-chance-why-we-enjoy-games-of-luck/ why we like games of chance - it perfectly explains how and why it works.

And I am interested in the "before moment". When you are about to find out whether you have won or not. This is more exciting than the result itself. I think it is not for nothing that many continue to play - they do not go for the money, but for this anticipation. It is like an addiction: you want to feel your breath catch again. The result is already secondary. Perhaps this is the power of gambling.
