Title: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Stepstowealth on May 16, 2025, 12:10:50 PM From the way people approach certain activities, unless they are conscious and try to conceal their nature, you can often tell from the way they approach it. Some few examples from my observation is the few times I have been to the gym, there are individuals who you can just tell that they must be resilient in life as well as some other qualities because of how they approach gym routines and schedule, Do you agree that it is possible to tell how someone is, that is their nature from how they gamble? Like a cunny person will also try to be cunny while gambling maybe in a plaver against player game, or be cunny to a casino, just one example.
I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards. Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? High press games like poker can show some characters like patience, risk taking, emotional control and tolerance, and anger but that don't mean those are the true character of that person. For you to judge someone character it takes more than a round table test or a one time situation check especially judging from gamble. In gambling any individua can portray a character that is triggered only when they are gambling. Someone might be cunny in gambling but in real life is a loyal and trustworthy person. Or they might be calm while gambling but dishonest in keeping to deals. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

I also watched a movie about gambling where the characters in a game are like they are reading the personality and also reading which card their opponents are holding like you said dude, I'm just not sure if that's a poker game because it's like they only have 2 cards and they ask the banker and they throw some away. So, the op asked is it possible to read the character of a gambler, this is my answer to the matter we are talking about in this matter. so it's clear through gambling it can really reveal who we are as a gambler.

Post by: SATWAT on May 16, 2025, 03:38:00 PM Few things surely have ability to check nature of person with gambling is also one of them because from his moves and play observation can be checked even its never been easy but still possible.
But its never been easy to have all things sorted out quickly and easily as example is given about playing gamble before any contract is also possible because with this reading mind is possible and they can check many other things related to this person as well. Where I am living mostly peoples love to play gamble for having money fewest are going to have for fun or as their nature needs some changes because here life is never been easy and socially things are also not opened up for peoples they can do which are good and peaceful for them.

Maybe you should try watching the movies till the end. You will noticed they’re often wrong in their assumptions. A smart person will show a fake character and use that to outsmart or even harm others character in the movies. I’ve seen scenes like that many times, and the losing side almost always misjudges the main character :D Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? I know that movie. I just forgot the title. Anyway, I think it is a good way to expose the true nature of a person. Why? During the time when a person is being cornered, they will show different emotions, and most of them are negative ones. If a gambler is winning, it's also showing different emotions, most of which are optimistic ones. These are also strategies in a poker game. A professional poker player will let a person win or lose to reveal his nature. That way he can read them whenever they will play one on one, or when they are the players left on the table.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Depends on gambling game but mostly poker or other card games that includes decision making. It’s true that you can read someone nature by just observing the way he play because he value money precious to him so his action is legit. Many movie like this that involves gambling but mostly to measure the luck of person while life is at stake. I think John Wick latest consist of this card to determine the fate of each players because gambling is always use to test luck. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards. Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? In my personal opinion, I don't think gambling can reveal the true nature of one beyond the love of money or how much greed one harbors within one's heart and mind. It could also reveal of the level of recklessness a person has. There are people who when first approaching a casino for the first time will gamble just a little bit of money and then retreat from the casino after realizing it is not their thing. Other people will completely jump into gambling and wager all their money for the sake of money and multiplying their bankroll in the minimum of time available. If one wants to know more about a person there are other ways and activities, psychological exercises for one to know whether a person is either reckless, or not.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Gambling can come in any form and we can also see to learn form different aspect on it, by gambling with other people, we tend to know more about them, study them closely and even discover more about them and our own self, gambling is not what we can just have like that without having what to remember about it, that is why even as we gamble, we learn new things form it and discover on some other things as well even as we are gambling, except for those who are not sensitive enough o know what is happening around and within as they are gambling.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Normally it can reveal the nature of a person quite well if you are interacting directly with him, meaning that you are playing with him in a physical casino, in my opinion the gym does not say much just like university doesn't, in university you have just followed some schedule and finished some tasks in a certain time frame yet it does not show anything of how well you will behave at your work. In gambling emotions are very difficult to hide when playing live yet are very easy to do so when you are playing online, I have done this myself, I have been gambling in my phone while being circled by my more than 10 colleagues in a kinda of open space office and I was behaving like I was scrolling normally in my phone when I wasn't and I have been able to behave like this for a lot of time. So you can only reveal the character of a person through gambling or any other interaction while you are interacting directly with that person, in distance it is impossible to know more than what he wants to show.

When gambling is just another activity in day to day life, everyone's real nature will reflect and influence in gambling as well. I mean, no wonder that gambling can be used to observe a person's inter personality skills and habits. Moreover, when you get a chance to move with a person, you can easily observe and understand all the characters of that person. For closely moving, you may use gambling as one of the opportunity. I agree that gambling could be a good way to observe the characteristics of anyone.In gambling any individua can portray a character that is triggered only when they are gambling. As per basic human psychology, you cannot hide your inner characters always or create a new one at instant, from this I disagree with your statement of 'gambling may get you some behaviour which is not yours at all'.Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Most of the things that happens in the movies are just fiction you shouldn't take them seriously unless the things that were copied from true life stories. A gambler is a risk taker I think the Mafia boss in the movie as mentioned by you could be playing cards with his client before going into business dealings with them to observe how they react when they need to take risk and their ability to think fast when they sense trouble. In real life a typical gambler can not be trusted in business especially the addicted gamblers. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Solosanz on May 16, 2025, 04:12:21 PM Depends on how much they stake.
We've heard a good gambling budget is 1%-10% of our monthly income and I agree, most people able to lost such amount. If they gamble more than what they can afford to lose, pretty sure they will be very focus and not want to lose, in this way they might their real personality. You will not able to reveal someone's personality if they stake low since they already accept to lost it all before they gamble. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: DaNNy001 on May 16, 2025, 05:37:30 PM Gambling can be a test of your character to show you how disciplined and mature you are both emotionally and psychologically but a lot of people don't see it that way... just recently I have thought about this, we chase our losses when we gamble because we are Indisciplined, it shows that we lack self control and it's a wake up call to do something about it..if you can fix yourself when dealing with this that's a win for you.

An example of this is when a gambler losses money, what would be his reaction, his response to that determines the quality of his character. Some gamblers can stop immediately after they lose because they are disciplined enough to control theirself, this means their disciplined.

Some few examples from my observation is the few times I have been to the gym, there are individuals who you can just tell that they must be resilient in life as well as some other qualities because of how they approach gym routines and schedule, Yeah it will tell you about their discipline but I do not think you can evaluate someone just based on that. You can't tell if a person is kind or not just from observing him in the gym but you can tell if this is his first time or not. If he is shy or not. Etc. So other characteristics sure but not all.Quote I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards. Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? In a game of cards, players often observe each other's tells. These tells can tell a player what possibly could the opponent have as their cards. So you have to be able to hide your emotions pretty well.Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

It's not the same thing right, so I won't look them from that perspective but it can be a testing ground to test how easy that you can derail from what you have planned to, it could be uninstantional still we are not that perfect when it comes to money. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: JoyMarsha on May 16, 2025, 06:25:57 PM I don't think gambling can be used as a means to describe someone's true nature because everyone's focus on gambling is to find a means to win, to beat their opponents out of the game if it is playing cards.
Someone may not have cunning behavior as a character, but in gambling, you may see them displaying such an attitude. Someone who is not intelligent or smart can be intelligent or smart when gambling. However, I can't judge someone's character because of what I see them display as a character whereas there is something that triggers such behavior, that is money.

Like a cunny person will also try to be cunny while gambling maybe in a plaver against player game, or be cunny to a casino, just one example. Yes I largely agree with you. The fact is that peoples character shows alongside with what they do, this is not only in gambling but in all ramifications of life. You can tell a bad person from the way they approach things. For example there are people that will want to buy goods from a shop, the way the buyer will approach the seller or vise versa the way the seller will approach the buyer will tell how rude the person is. In Gambling shops most fight that occurs is as a result of bad attitude or bad behavior. It's usually uncontrollable and it often happens more when there is more loses than win. If a gambleer is losing more he is likely going to have a mood swing which is characterized by the loses and will show the true character of such person.Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Mrbluntzy on May 16, 2025, 06:28:07 PM A straight answer to your question is no, because you are going to a casino to have fun and not to investigate people and their lifestyle. If it's your friends, through other activities that you both are doing together, you can clearly know more about them but if you are not too close to people that you see randomly at the casino, there's no way you can easily see their true nature and their gambling habits might not display their true self. There's more to what you think you can easily see in people. For example, the way a doctor might treat or act towards their patience might be totally different from how the doctor will act at home, same is applicable to lawyers, and also applicable to almost everyone, they can act differently on different situation.
Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: mindrust on May 16, 2025, 06:34:47 PM You can observe a person’s nature in many ways. A professional gambler will likely want to see the other guy’s gambling skills as that’s the tool he knows the best but there are so many other stuff you could observe.
For example watch how eats his food. Does he use fork and knife correctly? Is he creating a mess while eating? These observations might give a few clues about the person which you are observing. Gambling is mostly about mathematics as well so, if a person uses gambling as his main tool to observe other people, he probably wants to test the other guy’s analytical intelligence.

Those who go to the gym are very dedicated to keeping their bodies fit and are very concerned about their physical well-being, so they manage themselves according to routine. Again, those who work lead a corporate life, due to which they keep themselves in a routine. But gambling is a place of entertainment and some people come here with the desire to get rich in a short time. But here everything depends on everyone's luck. So gambling can never be compared with anything else. And gambling can never test someone's nature because everyone who gambles moves away from their normal nature.I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards.

Totally depends on what kind of gambling game that you are dealing into just like on what been mentioned above that most likely on what could possibly show off someones nature is on dealing up with poker or card games in against with other players as well. You can be able to see up the behavior, but I do disagree into that generalization that once you've seen on how someone do reacts to gambling will be totally be saying that he's that like when he's that on normal situation. It is just that typical that we would be highly reactive when we do lose money and those reactions were just that normal and it wont be totally giving out that show off about our overall personality or true nature. Somewhat case to case basis because short tempered people might be that showing off himself and thats not that really recommended if it turned up this way.I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards.

Post by: mirakal on May 16, 2025, 06:49:51 PM It could be but it’s never guaranteed. Gamblers should show positive attitudes towards their gambling activities like having patience and positive mindset, not because it’s their real nature, but because the game requires it in order to gain higher winning potentials.
In short, they have to pretend to make their gambling works. But in reality, their real nature could be impulsive and pessimistic, negative attitudes that won’t help them with their gambling activities in the long run. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Orpichukwu on May 16, 2025, 07:01:13 PM There are people who can get whatever they need from anyone as long as the person gives them that attention and time they need to access them. Through a round table game, someone who knows how to get the worst out of a player can do that, but it won't always work on every player.
There are people who know what and how exactly to play with you to make sure you react exactly how you could have reacted in a real-life situation. Gambling can be used to access someone's weakness, anger management, and control, but it's not a process to be relied on. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: coolcoinz on May 16, 2025, 07:10:33 PM You should ask a psychiatrist about that OP because this is well studied. People have different "faces" some they show at work, some to their friends and family, some come out only in extreme situations, or under pressure. The deal is, if you are able to show the demon in you under pressure, sooner or later it's going to come out when you don't want it, like when your child annoys you.
Gambling usually forces faces to come out that you'd otherwise keep in check. If someone gets angry and violent after a loss, you can bet he's going to be violent in general. It just depends on how well he can control it. He may be showing it often, or keep it for a special occasion, but you know it's there. I'd observe people I gamble with and decide whether I want to have something to do with them in other situations. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Unless you have a serious problem, gambling doesn't define much about what you are or how you act. I will say that many often fall under its spell out of boredom however, the fact that it can give you a thrill without even having to leave the house can add an element of spice to someones life, or they might even enjoy the social element of in game or in person chatting. There might be a similarity that people who gamble don't mind taking the occasional risk, because I have met some very risk averse people in the past who lock all their money up in bank savings accounts and would never imagine spending money on such a "frivolous" activity. However it is difficult to profile people much beyond that, just look at all the variety in poker players and their styles. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Like a cunny person will also try to be cunny while gambling maybe in a plaver against player game, or be cunny to a casino, just one example. It is possible to dictate how someone behaves if you observe their gambling activities closely. Games like poker need some level of intelligence, so we can assume that smart people might be good at the game. People who have a good budget and follow it without hitches could be assumed to be good with money management. Anyone who can control his gambling activities so that it doesn't affect his finances negatively could be said to be good at financial management. Gamblers who are cunning or who cheat when gambling with another person could be said to be dishonest. These observations might not also be accurate.

Post by: Mahiyammahi on May 16, 2025, 07:38:23 PM Of course, a person's personality and mentality are revealed through how they react when gambling. Just like you gave the example of Jim a little earlier, gambling also involves pressure, risk, and greed.
In the movie scene you mentioned, the mafia probably wants to check out an opponent's moves, his behavior, etc. before making a deal. He can easily get that out of him by gambling. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: HONDACD125 on May 16, 2025, 07:46:37 PM Well, I think gambling can only reveal a person's nature if that person has an unstable nature, which means that they lack self-control and patience, and they easily lose it and start raging or getting angry as soon as they start losing money. This is not only about gambling, but in anything where a person can face defeat, some people will have their moods changed so quickly when they see that the game isn't going in their favour, and they start becoming rude, angry, and start scolding people around them, throwing things around, and this shows that they lack patience and can't handle pressure.
So, if someone is observing a person when they are gambling, and if the gambler has a weak nature when it comes to self-control, they can surely understand their nature by only watching and observing their behaviour. Even if the person tries to keep it together, only to not show others how they are, they won't be able to control it for long if they keep losing constantly, and finally, they will start raging and getting angry.

I like to believe that you can tell a player how they gamble by observing their betting style. If they are risky in their betting, there's a possibility that they may also be reckless in some of their actions in real life. If the individual values money, they may bet based on what they have allocated.Still, every person is different. There are some gamblers whose type is like a Jekyll and Hyde, where their personality is different from what they display at the gambling table, so it's hard to generalize. You have to know the person and see their character. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: cryptoaddictchie on May 16, 2025, 08:09:08 PM Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? If a person isnt a gambling, then thats answer the question already. Maybe and maybe not. Cause some arent playing gambling or knows how to play, you cant know how he gonna use his attitude or knowledgr towards that means you cant fully judge anyone based on that. But if you both know how to play, or gamble then answer is yes. On how he moves youl somehow learns the person nature the way he thinks of the move and more.

You think a cunning person will always be cunning at the poker table? Maybe, but maybe not. Just because someones ruthless in business dont automatically make them some kind of poker shark. Maybe they just play cards purely for fun and relaxation, without any need to scheme or cheat. Or you got your meek little church mouse who suddenly turns into a beast when the cards come out - some folks find their power trip in the strangest places.
That movie scene with the Mafia boss using a card game to assess someone's character? It makes for a great cinematic moment, but in reality, people are much more complex.

Alternatively casinos are in a better position to predict the behavior of players than fellow gamers, because in a card game like Op pointed out the next person wouldn't focus entirely on reading the attitude of the next player instead winning would be the best priority. Unless the goal is to study the opponent, rather than winning, then it's possible to detect what kind of actions a person could take just by monitoring how they play, especially in games like chess, such observations helps in knowing moves and winning in end games.

That way you will see someone who is emotional or patient in dealing with things.Yes, I agree that gambling can reveal a person's true nature. Anyone who deals with money will reveal something we never knew, and someone with an emotional nature will show anger when they lose. However, a patient person will simply leave and not come back when they lose. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Patikno on May 16, 2025, 08:49:26 PM I believe that playing poker can show character, because I feel that when playing poker I become someone who is easily provoked by opponents, especially when someone raises the bet, and from this I become someone who is a risk taker. Therefore I believe that it can show someone's character from my personal experience, but this does not necessarily apply to everyone, because I also believe that someone can not be themselves when playing poker. From my experience, therefore I started to rarely play poker when gambling, because for some reason I became like uncontrolled when playing it.
Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: ShowOff on May 16, 2025, 08:51:42 PM A straight answer to your question is no, because you are going to a casino to have fun and not to investigate people and their lifestyle. If it's your friends, through other activities that you both are doing together, you can clearly know more about them but if you are not too close to people that you see randomly at the casino, there's no way you can easily see their true nature and their gambling habits might not display their true self. There's more to what you think you can easily see in people. For example, the way a doctor might treat or act towards their patience might be totally different from how the doctor will act at home, same is applicable to lawyers, and also applicable to almost everyone, they can act differently on different situation. There are probably only a few traits that can be seen when someone gambles, among their courage in taking risks, their composure, and their intelligence. To see other traits, exactly as you mentioned, one would certainly need to share time and experiences together in different activities. In gambling, most people even often display contradictory traits because they want to pursue victory. On the other hand, in general, a person nature is exactly as stated in the Japanese proverb, everyone has three faces one for the world, one for family and friends, and one they never show to anyone. When they act in an activity, their nature will adapt to that environment. Acting responsibly in gambling is part of the strategy, outside of gambling, they may never apply these traits.

Some get into gambling when they were still very young, they grow up with it and it eventually becomes like part and parcel of them, while others get into gambling at a later age of their life when they have already other activities occupying their minds, so they don't have that full concentration in gambling like the ones who start off gambling at their tender age. This is why we see some people doing some activities and it's like it's their nature, but the truth is that it's just time, the time and age they started off doing that thing made it become part of them, their brain have been rewired in the cause of growth and gambling all the time, it's become used to it and most of this type of persons are actually addicts but may never agree to it because it's seemingly like gambling is their nature, whereas it's not.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Gambling alone, can actually not be seen as a true test to observing someone's true nature or character, as it goes beyond mere gambling to be able to ascertain people's true nature, such as, their level of patience, risk taking ability and confidence. But however, there are some people who might be very good in gambling, and yet lacks their basic personality qualities of an individual, and likewise there might be others who aren't good in gambling and yet has all these qualities. Hence, discrediting the claim that gambling can be used as an avenue to revealing someone's true nature (i.e essential qualities). Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Gambling exposes people to their true colors, and somehow it has a positive side, which is to know what kind of individual you are dealing with.

Most of people’s who are into gambling is for money is only fees people that play for fun, because I can tell you that there’s a lot of people’s take a gambling like their office since is there where most of peoples get their daily bread and why they take it very serious is base on how the situation is going; because there’s lack of jobs in the country that’s why every youth are find their way out for themselves.Gambling make a lot of people to be rich after suffering in a many years and it make a lot of people becomes poorly in a seconds, why I started that is there’s most of the people’s that the day they begin their gambling is that same day they will lose a big amounts of money; that’s all about gambling.

It is one way but it won't reveal the entirety of someone's attitude and nature. I guess that anything that's related to money, it will make someone show who they are. But let's not be judgmental to it because they've shown some of their bad attitudes during their losses, it's a normal reaction of someone when they're very upset to what happened to them. And on the opposite of it, when gamblers are winning and we all know how it feels to be like that. So, it might some of our weaknesses and the way we talk but it's due to the situation while we gamble.I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? High press games like poker can show some characters like patience, risk taking, emotional control and tolerance, and anger but that don't mean those are the true character of that person. For you to judge someone character it takes more than a round table test or a one time situation check especially judging from gamble. In gambling any individua can portray a character that is triggered only when they are gambling. Someone might be cunny in gambling but in real life is a loyal and trustworthy person. Or they might be calm while gambling but dishonest in keeping to deals. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: topbitcoin on May 16, 2025, 09:33:10 PM The answer is very possible. But in the end it is not only gambling that can show a person's character or nature directly but in all aspects this can still happen, it's just that for gambling sometimes we can be more honest with ourselves so it will be easy to find someone's true character when calling us to gamble.
Not that in this case we can read the game or anything but in the end a person's character will stand out more when we are serious about doing something and in this case gambling can clearly bridge this so that we know someone's character. Not a few people's character is reflected in the games they play in gambling because indeed something like this is a normal thing, we can even see what happens outside of gambling and in gambling conditions for someone, their nature can be different.

It should not be the basis, therefore, you can't just say the nature of the person by just observing the way he gamble.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? Well I think it’s a good way, because it puts you in a position where you’d have to make some kind of judgement or decision based on things are not not really favorable - so the way you think and come out really plays an important role in judging what kind of person that gambler is. But the thing is that people tend to make decisions that don’t really tally with their actually nature based on what they are facing so if we take gambling as the only way to reveal people’s nature then we might have some false positive outcome.

Post by: r_victory on May 17, 2025, 03:01:10 AM The way you act when you gamble can indeed reflect your personality traits, but it is not an absolute rule. Someone who is calm in everyday life may become aggressive in a poker game, or someone who is “ethical” may bluff (imply that they have a good hand, in the context of lying or cheating, as the rules allow) as a game strategy, which in a way goes against what they do in everyday life. I am not saying that bluffing is dishonest, the game allows it! It is just an example of behavior that is contrary to what a person usually does. Depending on the case, it can intensify common behavior; a cheating person may feel tempted to use tricks to beat “the house” (which is not advisable, but some people try).

The approach someone does something some time could predetermine if they are going to do well or not, like gambling some of us use it for entertainment while some lazy ass dudes use it as a means of survival you could say that if opportunity to do some things lazy people do us granted they will do such. gambling can in my opinion portray someone's behaviour.

Post by: Julien_Olynpic on May 17, 2025, 05:20:11 AM Yes, a game can demonstrate a person's nature if you watch it from the side for a long time. But I must say that in order to get a full impression of a person, you must watch him in the gym or gambling for a long time. A single game may not reveal all sides of his nature. In addition, this condition is extremely important, you must behave naturally. The author in the start post wrote about a mafia boss who offered to play a game of chance to observe the nature of a person. I am afraid that such a game would hardly demonstrate his character. After all, it was a single, one might say, random game and in this game the person sought to demonstrate the best features of his character from the point of view of the mafia boss, and not to behave naturally.

Still, if you see them as really striving to get better, I think that's already a tell, and when it comes to gambling, it depends on how the person approaches it, but I think there would be some signs of who he is, just like how elite people play golf.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? There are different approach one can look at this from. One way is that, someone that gambles in an irresponsible way is likely someone that acts also in an irresponsible manner in his real life. Same way a disciplined person at the gym is likely going to be a disciplined person elsewhere, the approach one gambles with will reflect a lot to how he views life and finance. If you're a meticulous spender, you're going to approach gambling differently from a wreckless spender. If you're the one that doesn't like to keep to his word, even after agreeing with someone for a bet, it will still be hard for you to keep up with what you've agreed on. Your personality in general doesn't only apply to a single aspect of your life, if affects other aspect of your life and so, yeah, it's certain that you can know someone's nature through gambling.

I fully agree with what you mentioned about companies where certain HR try to phish for information regarding your habits and addictions. Currently, my mother works in an electric company that supplies electricity in the capital of the Philippines. As a VP for HR, she often asks questions in order to elicit certain information regarding the background of each potential applicant for their work. Like what you mentioned, she did encounter an excellent applicant with a qualified background for an engineering position. Unfortunately, that person was not hired after saying that he had suffered gambling addiction in the past. Gambling involves risks that deals with our money. It brings out both the best and the worst of each and every person given the high-intensity and adrenaline nature of the act.

The reason why many people fall into gambling trap is because it can't be controlled, no one knows how to make themselves win as a gambler so they keep trying, and when losses comes we handle it differently, how will one true nature get exposed because they gamble? Nothing works in gambling than managing your risk, be a good person or a bad person or someone who takes peoples lives, a bandit, or a lawyer, gambling doesn't care, stop mixing things all together, true human nature is different how they behave when gambling, most don't even have a clue than hope to win. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: lovesmayfamilis on May 17, 2025, 06:59:34 AM Some events in our lives sometimes reveal the essence of a person. I think that those who communicate regularly always see the character of another person and are unlikely to be surprised by something new in their behavior when something goes wrong. Gambling people can be seen immediately, just like those who have a very hot temper; greedy people appear just as quickly as litmus paper in those moments when profit may be likely. Gambling simply highlights all the positive and negative sides of people even better, and you are unlikely to be surprised to see a reserved person who does not have any addictions. Self-control requires great control, not only on a psychological level but also on a mental one, and very often, gamblers are inferior in intelligence to those people who have a good education and upbringing.

However, the same can be observed not only through gambling, but also in other types of activities. There even seems to be such a science as behavioral psychology, if I'm not mistaken. This science explores the relationship between external actions in certain situations and the characteristics of the human psyche. Gambling can also provide information about a person, for example, about his propensity for risk or, conversely, caution. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

Maybe we can say that poker is the best for that... after all, it is a game where there is a lot of "lying" (bluffing) and where sometimes psychology plays a more important role than the cards in your hand or on the table.

Reflection of people's personalities can be obtainable in career duties, dedication to work, project deliveries and ability to meeting deadlines.

Yes, it's proven that not only in gambling, but in other activities where you have got something at stake (like in social media, where your social status is at stake), data about different personality traits can be extracted in order to profile you. So I guess that in gambling it would be the same, unless you keep a very high privacy. I guess that it's difficult to be one way in real life and different online, unless you're pretending to be different, which cannot be sustained all the time and, in the end, I think that patterns emerge.

Of course, a person's character can tell what kind of person he is. If a person is addicted to gambling, then his character and behavior will reflect that he is addicted to gambling. So, you can understand by looking at a gambler and by looking at his behavior, you can understand whether he is addicted to winning or not. However, if a person uses gambling as entertainment and uses very little money in gambling, then his behavior will not be very obvious because even if he loses in gambling, his behavior will not be so bad that it will be understood that he lost in gambling. If I say from my side, no one around me can say that I am a gambler because I do not use gambling as entertainment and use very little money in gambling, which is why I can be very calm even if I lose.I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards.

I am talking from experience, it's like how many people put their life savings into a ponzi scheme that collapsed later and they got mad with the company because the fool them amd pretend to be legit company, now the question is how does all this doing defines who these people really are. I am here to say that this is not so right, it's like saying if something bad happens to you don't become sad, if someone you live dies you will either be in sadness or start crying, it's same when you lose money unexpectedly even if it's your own fault, this shows you are human but not your true nature, gambling doesn't shows who you really are.

No, I believe a person needs to spend not only sometimes but lots of time with a person to see his very nature. Besides, professional gamblers are good at hiding their emotion, so, this renders gambling activities useless in determining one's nature. Since we are talking about the nature of a person, not the personality I think one way to see the very nature of a person is to get him drunk. Because it was studied that alcohol lowers inhibition so the person's actions have no filters. It is also explained in this article why a person changes when drunk: https://www.healthline.com/health/alcohol/personality-change-when-drinking-alcohol#alcohol-and-personality Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Smartprofit on May 17, 2025, 01:41:14 PM In my opinion, any human action reflects his real psychological portrait. A person can lie verbally. His words can hide his thoughts very well.
However, a person’s real actions fully reveal his essence. And a person’s personality is revealed most vividly in gambling. Gambling is a direct confrontation between a person and Chaos, Luck and Destiny. In such conditions, a person simply cannot lie and hide his thoughts. This confrontation is so grandiose that a person simply does not have the strength to pretend and hide his true essence. Therefore, yes, gambling fully reveals a person’s character to an insightful outside observer. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

The way we react to gambling indeed is a bit reflective of how we react and behave in real life, but that's not applicable to everyone. There are those who have a totally different character and how to behave toward things based on what's happening, although in terms of anger and emotional control, their real attitude might reflect a little in gambling, but for risk-taking, they can be risk-takers when it comes to gambling and be a totally different person in real-life events.Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Peanutswar on May 17, 2025, 02:33:51 PM Gambling is a form of fun, but when it takes to get serious like as you mentioned you can see how the person handles the situation can bring up a lot of emotions right there. If they are still calm, get nervous and etc. Also how they make a decision among the game itself so those people who can easily read the opponents next move has an advantage on the game, but if you are a weak hearted and makes always doubt with your game possible might lose your next move.

I'd say it depends on the person and how they behave, because your behaviour is what tells others about your nature and what kind of person you actually are. If you stay calm and collected at all times and don't behave differently, no one will be able to judge you or your nature even if you are not usually like that, but if you don't have control over yourself and you start behaving inappropriately in public when you are gambling and show the emotions openly, people around you will surely judge you based on that and they will think and know how your nature is.The biggest revealer of a person's nature in gambling is when a person rages after losing because that's a very common occurring in gambling, but some people might be able to control it and don't react in front of others, but some might not be able to do that and they might start getting angry and shouting and fully showing their emotions in public which reveals their nature to the people around.

But i think that watching how someone play - is not enough to understand the man. You can see how emotional he is, how clever may be, but that`s all.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? High press games like poker can show some characters like patience, risk taking, emotional control and tolerance, and anger but that don't mean those are the true character of that person. For you to judge someone character it takes more than a round table test or a one time situation check especially judging from gamble. In gambling any individua can portray a character that is triggered only when they are gambling. Someone might be cunny in gambling but in real life is a loyal and trustworthy person. Or they might be calm while gambling but dishonest in keeping to deals. I also watched a movie about gambling where the characters in a game are like they are reading the personality and also reading which card their opponents are holding like you said dude, I'm just not sure if that's a poker game because it's like they only have 2 cards and they ask the banker and they throw some away. So, the op asked is it possible to read the character of a gambler, this is my answer to the matter we are talking about in this matter. so it's clear through gambling it can really reveal who we are as a gambler. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Dunamisx on May 17, 2025, 04:43:19 PM Yes, what we do more frequent can easily be used in revealing the true nature of our own self, some people don't even know what they are up to, because they never have been in a strange condition harsh enough for them to proof their ability in withstanding on such, that is why we could get the very shock the moment we realized that some people acted strangely than we expected, because that was probably their first encounter being in such condition, which i still believe that as we gamble, it also reveals some crucial aspect of us which we may not know until we got to a particular stage in gambling.
Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: bubilas on May 17, 2025, 05:08:57 PM Gambling really shows off a person perfectly, because when someone plays gambling, he actually remains alone with himself and his true nature is revealed: this is the lack of self-control and greed and the desire to get more adrenaline. I will even say more that a person does not so much open up to someone as he rather opens up to himself. Many can open up a lot of unpleasant surprises of personality for themselves even after a short session in some slots or roulette. These are the laws of gambling, there is a lot in them, and the chance to change life and psychology and excitement.
Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: taufik123 on May 17, 2025, 06:18:27 PM In this context I am inclined to agree with Agbamoni. You just can't depict an individual's real character just through a round table game, it has to go beyond that to be able to ascertain people's character. Because anyone can pull up any form of character he wants you to see in him in just a few round table games. Humans are cunny and unpredictable in character that's why even in social scientific research study it's said that humans can't be studied under closed-tube as a result of our fickle nature unlike other lower animals. Humans are unified and have different levels of greed and character, so it is difficult to determine someone's character just from a round table game. But some of the early characters will probably emerge such as how they react to their defeat in gambling and how they express themselves when losing and winning. It's not easy to determine what their character really is, but personally I wouldn't let gambling control me and I have boundaries that I can't cross, however some people may have different boundaries. Actually the one that can best reveal how the true nature of a person with big wins and having a lot of money is, because it will really bring out his true nature.

No doubt about that, I have come across many people who are easily identified by their cunny behavior, And most time this characteristics are usually find in gamblers when they are betting. You don't need to stay too long to know them. In other words a person who is resilience, hardworking and smart can be easily identified by the way they behave. That's why the bible also said 'by their fruits ye shall know them. With some people you don't even have to see any behavior, you will know it as soon as you see them. A bad character often has a very perceptible aura. You are all joking right? Assuming I am a serial killer that loves to gamble, even if you are a cop or a CIA agent you can't detect that I am a killer just by my gambling habit, you are all joking. If you had read the whole thread, you'd find some more nuanced responses. To imply that you can read the whole person because of their gambling is wrong, but you can get a lot of information about them and this is an undeniable fact.Actually the one that can best reveal how the true nature of a person with big wins and having a lot of money is, because it will really bring out his true nature.

Though, we must consider something, those lacks of inhibitions when someone is gambling and also experimenting with alcohol do not actually represent the true character of the gambler and it is rather a part of their personality which they kept suppressed, for whatever reason.

Old women prefer games like slot machines that is high risk and winning chances are often less than 2%, some of the worst odds in gambling. Better odds are there in roulettes, plinko games and poker. Poker is a game where most millionaires are made. High money rolling and series of betting rounds makes it one of the lucrative games in gambling.
High stakes poker is an american television program. The poker games is no limit Texas Hold'em poker. The entire series is taped in Nevada. Notable players include Gus Hansen, Jamie Gold, Patrick Antonious and Peter Eastgate. Cash prizes for winning pots ranged from $500,000 to over a million. Format is pretty easy buy-in $100,000 Seasonwise buy-in increased to $500,000. Players were allowed to use cash instead of casino chips. Notables were Fred Chamanara. Best hands in the entire season was a full house of 5 diamonds and 5 spades that won a player $700,000. Highest pot was a million dollar pot from two raises of $200,000 each.

I even know some who have become involved in smoking and drinking. I think gambling has changed their character. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: GigaBit on May 20, 2025, 06:58:23 AM Gamblers, when they are starting, carry their character and nature to the gaming table, but as they grow as gamblers, they develop their nature or character. When a gambler starts gambling, it is natural for his mentality to change. There are some who limit themselves to gambling such gamblers no change in their gambling, but there are those who gamble without setting any limitations and lose a lot. They often get excited. If they were not gambling, their behavior would not be easily revealed. Therefore, I must agree that gambling easily reveals the behavior of a person. There are many people who usually like to stay calm in situations but when they are defeated, they become noisy such situations are very common in gambling.They learned to hide their feelings and experiences because they didn't want people snooping on how they gambled. And some gamblers have different characters when they gamble, just like one does when they are drunk. A quiet person becomes noisy when they are drunk, so is the case with gambling.

Post by: libert19 on May 20, 2025, 07:16:25 AM From the way people approach certain activities, unless they are conscious and try to conceal their nature, you can often tell from the way they approach it. People do reveal their nature in how they do things, whether in gambling or otherwise. But, regarding being concious and concealing one's nature, personally I don't have to be concious to conceal my nature, I have blank face (I like to call it a blessing), that people never get an idea what's going on in my mind. They do assume though, and it's always a wrong assumption — you know that quote from Fight Club, "If you don't say anything, people always assume the worst".

Some few examples from my observation is the few times I have been to the gym, there are individuals who you can just tell that they must be resilient in life as well as some other qualities because of how they approach gym routines and schedule, Do you agree that it is possible to tell how someone is, that is their nature from how they gamble? Like a cunny person will also try to be cunny while gambling maybe in a plaver against player game, or be cunny to a casino, just one example. I saw a movie one time, I cannot remember the name, just the scene, that before the Mafia boss in the movie gets into an agreement with you, you both have to sit and play cards. Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? I think gambling is not about being cunning, it is about discipline. In the gym, for example, you can immediately spot a disciplined person who follows their program precisely and performs their exercises properly. And such people are more likely to succeed in other areas of their life, at work, and maybe even in gambling. Or they will understand that they cannot make a living from gambling and will not waste their time on it. Or they will know they can make much more money elsewhere and will not even bother with gambling. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: danherbias07 on May 20, 2025, 10:49:41 AM Yes, what we do more frequent can easily be used in revealing the true nature of our own self, some people don't even know what they are up to, because they never have been in a strange condition harsh enough for them to proof their ability in withstanding on such, that is why we could get the very shock the moment we realized that some people acted strangely than we expected, because that was probably their first encounter being in such condition, which i still believe that as we gamble, it also reveals some crucial aspect of us which we may not know until we got to a particular stage in gambling. Withstanding stress. This is where a lot of bad emotions come out, when a person cannot take the stress anymore and he will absolutely show something that he ain't capable of before. I think this is the point where we should get wary about what is happening to us. We could not tell what will come up next after we are stressed, so it's best if we can question ourselves on where we are going if we keep on gambling. Let's remember, gambling ain't running away from us, it's just there, it can wait. We can take some rest sometimes and think about all the expenses that we incurred.

Could gambling be a good way to observe a person's nature? I think it only plays in some ways but doesn't determine the entire nature of someone because we can already see how people treat each others in football argument when they are not talking from one point, but outside that place when they are not having such discussions you will hardly see them on such turn, so actually the only observation gambling nature has it that you will be able to understand how rational and non self management someone could be in gambling, it might also decode some true nature of someone in terms of how callous they can be not only in the gambling but outside, so actually gambling can spot some human behaviors.Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: Jawhead999 on May 20, 2025, 10:54:38 AM Yeah I think so, even they gamble with small amount.
If someone gamble with small amount money and you know how much salary they get in average, you will know that they have a good money management or not a risk taker. You will also know the reaction after they run out of their bankroll, either they accept or they blame someone else. But not easy as that to reveal someone's nature, they might blame someone just for a sake of joking, they don't really want to be mean. Or they will understand that they cannot make a living from gambling and will not waste their time on it. Or they will know they can make much more money elsewhere and will not even bother with gambling. In short you want to say gambling is wasting time and wasting money?Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature.

It really does not give you enough information about them as a person with which you can make any kind of assumptions. Although you can tell a lot about certain things. Like if a person is a good bluffer by simply watching them play poker. You would have to play physical poker with them, though. Not online poker.

Of course, someone losing their temper or being impatient will also depend on the situation. In fact, I'm impatient sometimes with something that makes me wait for a long time. But all the behavior I showed when gambling is far different from being who I am outside.
That is why I don't agree with judging someone because of what we see him/her doing while gambling, because it was not right. Title: Re: Can gambling be a good revealer of someone's nature. Post by: madnessteat on May 22, 2025, 10:34:34 AM I think that the behavior of a gambler during a gambling session can tell a lot about him. If a gambler does not know how to control himself during a gambling session and behaves emotionally enough, it is likely that in life he will be unrestrained. If a gambler knows how to control himself during the gambling, takes only balanced and considered decisions, we can safely assume that most likely he conducts business in the same way.

Everything is just temporary reaction and provably that we won't really see the real attitude of people because of gambling. People just identified them and assumed that they are bad as what we think. But we don't actually know the real situation happened especially if we talk about the character of the person. Only their family members can tell who they are because they are the one who monitor their growth. What people see is just wrong assumptions since there are situation that we can't control our emotion due to frustration that's why its wrong to determine someone base only on their gambling activities.

And one of the best ways to find out about yourself and about a friend is to simply watch how a person behaves during gambling. For example, if we take slots as an example: if someone sits and plays and gets very nervous even after losing a small bet, then it can be clearly said that this person is shaken and most likely his stress resistance is zero. And what's funny gambling and betting give the opportunity to also learn all this is about yourself. For example, when I played slots, I noticed that sometimes I am very unrestrained, although before that I thought that I had excellent self-control.
