I think this is gonna be bad for the sports leagues in the long term.

It’s thrilling to win

[@BirdMoose]

Human brains aren't built to intuitively understand extreme odds, so if a gamble is a .000001% chance we have a hard time emotionally differentiating that from a 1% or more reasonable odds, even when we logically know we'll never win. Most gambling is set up so you win some and lose more, so people get hooked on the feeling of the wins more than the losses. Sure they know most people will lose much more in the long term, but stories of people who win or justifications like pretending you'll stop when you're ahead, or that 'someone has to win, why not me' let people keep going. And desperation is a huge driver; cost of living and assets have significantly outdated wage growth, so many people get desperate and feel that if they're going to be broke anyway it's worth taking a chance to become rich. If you feel like a gamble is the only way to pay off debt, or get medical care, or ever afford a home then it might seem worth it. (Tbc they're wrong, I'm not tryna defend it, just that's what people think/ feel. Addiction isn't driven by logical calculations but by our monkey brains not being designed for complex society and desperation)
