OP I'd say you repress an urge to gamble and every once in a while it comes back up. That's what happens when you repress emotions, they come back up, it fogs your mind and takes over momentarily. Check Psychodynamic psychology if you're interested in getting rid of it. It's the only form of psychology that fix the root cause of the problem and liberates you completely from it, whereas modern psychology, like cognitive psychology, is more effective in managing the symptoms of the problem.
