The language of gambling is revealing. Losses are called “bad beats,” wins are “deserved,” and quitting is “chickening out.” This vocabulary reframes outcomes to protect ego and sustain play. Words shape thought. When losing feels unjust and winning feels earned, continuing to gamble seems reasonable. Challenging this language helps restore clarity. Outcomes are not moral judgments; they are statistical events.
