The 'high' or feeling of euphoria created by addictive behaviour is less obvious in the brains of problem gamblers, research suggests.
This could make them more prone to addiction as they search harder for an "endorphin rush".
Researchers from London and Cambridge scanned the brains of 30 people to find out how their reward systems responded.
All humans have a natural opioid system in their brains which controls pain, reward and addictive behaviour.
