Who is a gambler?

[Orpichukwu]

Those who participate in gambling one day and then abstain from gambling or refrain from participating for the next month should not be called gamblers. Gamblers are those who participate in gambling on a regular basis and are addicted to gambling, leaving aside their daily activities. A gambler basically doesn't care about his family, even if he participates in gambling on a loan. A gambler gambles more than three days a week, does not listen to anyone, no matter how important suggestions are given to him, and gambling is of the utmost importance to him.

If those who are only gambling on a regular basis are to be called gamblers, what should we call those who don't gamble on a regular basis but still spend money and time on staking on games? They are both gamblers, but they are just on a different level.

Reason being that, in this section we often tends to be seeing several posts about people calling themselves gamblers, but truth be told, if you play slot today and didn't play again tomorrow or next or even till a month interval would that person be called a gambler?
If NO, who then is to be called a gambler?
Let discussed amicably as I really want to get something meaningful from this topic.

You don’t need to be addicted to gambling to be seen as a gambler, you don’t have to gamble regularly or often to be called a gambler. All those could turn out badly for you as an individual but even then, you are a gambler alright.

A gambler is someone who gambles, understands how gambling works, the meaning of the various markets and gambles just enough to be entertained and satisfy certain gambling desires. It doesn’t really have to be more than that.

[liuka]

Anyone who doesn't consider themselves as gamblers are free to not call themselves as a gambler.
If they gamble today and not tomorrow and for the next days, that should be fine. What matters is on how you see yourself.
So, the definition will come from you if you're a gambler that you can call yourself with or you just want to be a lowkey one without having being called.

You gamble, and in the eyes of others you are still considered a gambler, but you yourself don't want to be called a gambler, it doesn't matter because it's their right to say anything about it freely.

But why should this be debated? Because every gambler should be considered a gambler because he is a regular gambler even though he plays gambling once a month, if you don't want to be conspicuous then never show you are a gambler.

Gambler may be define in different form. Just like you said, it's not compulsory you become a gambling addict before you are called a gambler. We have some casual gamblers that gamble only for fun. They gamble once a while. Remember gambling doesn't stop on only casino or sport betting. Those who play dices or ludo etc along the street putting money or material things to motivate the winner are also gamblers.

This type of people are professional gamblers. They take their time to analysis all outcome before putting their money. So anyone that risk his/her money or valuable item for an outcome either on casual or regular basis can be called a gambler.

Have you ever met someone who is in denial about their gambling habits and refuses to be called a gambler? They downplay their losses and avoid taking responsibility, instead blaming other people when things don’t go the way they hoped. There’s nothing wrong with admitting that we gamble. Being a gambler isn’t the problem the real issue is losing control. As long as we can manage it responsibly, honesty with ourselves matters most.

I've heard a lot before. I don't know what's wrong of being called a gambler. I mean, technically what you are called when you gamble. This should be not an issue though, and you are right, the issue is when gambling habit becomes excessive. Then you're not called just a gambler, but an addicted gambler. They're the most irresponsible gambler that can potentially cause trouble later on.

A gambler by definition is someone staking money on some sort of outcome or by winning some sort of game. Hmmmm, I feel like there are many different types of gamblers and not only one type. Kind of like those poker games you see in movies and how everyone has different gambling personalities. I guess another way you could discuss it / compare it to would be with like high school clicks. Haha If we were do do that youd have the "Slotters" The "card game players" Crappsters (freshman game) hahaha I could go on and on with this kind of funny.

Someone with that kind of habit needs to be reminded that change is essential. If they don’t, they risk falling into a cycle that could lead to criminal behavior, especially if their gambling losses continue. Allowing this habit to persist not only harms them but also puts everyone around them at risk especially those of us close to them.

Many gamblers do not disclose their gambling due to social and environmental reasons. This is a personal matter, and it is actually to limit the scope of disavowal because gamblers are viewed negatively in many societies. If a gambler is addicted and people find out about it, it affects others. If you continue to gamble despite controlling yourself, they will still consider you a addicted gambler. A conscientious gambler who is patient, responsibly and fair with their money is viewed negatively in many societies. Gambling responsibly and implement your own decisions There is no need to advertise to others.

It is only for the sake of discussion and maybe someone just want to feed their thought that they can gamble and at the same time not called as a gambler.
There are some people who are sensitive on how they are addressed and that's why if they are okay being called a gambler, then that's good.
But if not, they have to justify their action to what is visible so that next time, they won't be called what they don't like.

I suppose that even if a person does not gamble for a month and then resumes gambling, they can also be called a gambler. This is possible, for example, during the off-season of some sports championships, when teams go on vacation and gamblers go on vacation in anticipation of the new season and new bets. To be called a gambler, you don't have to play slots every day and bet on any championships, any sports, or any athletes. This is no longer an indicator of a person's gambling addiction, but rather an indicator of their absolute carelessness or short-sightedness. At the same time, people often show carelessness in gambling, but it's also like financial literacy: if no one has taught you about it, then you don't really know much about it. The same applies here: if you don't know what principles to follow when gambling, you can end up in big trouble. Sometimes it's the fault of gambling, sometimes it's just plain ignorance.

Apart from social or personal reasons, some people may even hide that they are gamblers due to Islamic or family reasons. In some regions, gambling is considered as a sin or something that is done by bad people and in those societies, the gamblers have no choice but to do gambling without disclosing it in public or to their near and dear ones.

I have not seen anyone who gambles and refused to be called a gambler. I have only witnessed those who refuse to take responsibility for their losses. Instead, they blame others and something else for it. They can never be bold enough to accept that this game was lost because of their own mistake, or it's never in their control, such person even if they claim to be a gambler are not supposed to be called one since they don't truly admit of taking risk on their own.

That's roughly how I play, because I can take a few weeks off from playing and then place a lot of bets during a championship. But I still limit myself because I understand I need to do so to avoid falling into a downward spiral every time I lose. I'm also a gambler, though I do interrupt my excitement against my will to avoid finding myself in a difficult situation and not knowing what to do. Although I wouldn't call myself a smart gambler because I haven't yet developed a winning strategy. Generally speaking, I'd say a gambler is someone who craves to play and feels the thrill.

You don't even need to stake money first to be considered a gambler, anything will do as long as it's a stake and as long as you have the chance of winning and or losing, if we try to consider only addicted gamblers to be gamblers to what do we want to call everyone else? The meaning of who a gambler is should not be limited to how much gambling they do but the fact that they do it in the first place, I can argue that at one point in our lives or the other we have all been considered gamblers.

Whoever gambles will be called a gambler. If a person gambles 2-3 times a day or 2-3 times a week, once a week or once a month, he will be called a gambler. But here there is a difference between a gambler and an addicted gambler. Someone has become addicted to gambling while gambling, while someone is gambling only as a means of entertainment. That is the difference. I do not see any other difference.

If I gamble for entertainment one day a week or one to two days out of 15 days and three or four days a month, I would still be considered a gambler.

In general, I have a similar understanding of gamblers, because excitement is a driving force that excites the player's consciousness, makes their heart beat faster, their pupils dilate, and so on. Players simply begin to frequently imagine, while playing, that they, and that today, will be the winner and finally become rich. Furthermore, I think players have a constant need to play, but I'm not even saying it's every day. It can even be dormant and resurface after a month, but it's like an explosion, a strong desire to play. I think the word "gambler" refers to this type of person.

Funny enough different people have different opinions and views on who a gambler is. For some, they’re just people who spends more time gambling, and it doesn’t matter how much they spend, whether it’s more or less, the time frame is what they more interested in, and for others, it’s the opposite, they consider the money people spend gambling, and some would consider a gambler to be someone who takes the most risks in gambling and so on. But the truth is that, anyone who wagers his money on anything, either to derive pleasure or for a profit, is a gambler.

[Peanutswar]

Well it seems once you play a game thst has a bet requirement you will considering your self as a gambler because any form of bet even though its an item, service and etc that has a small value at all will considered a gambler and a real gambler also played games such as in casino of course. it is now a different story of a gambler who seek it professional such as they took seriously gambling as a form of way to earn money.

And by Google definition, all which you have mentioned and things which we all look at as to what falls under who is a gambler and who is not align together. As far as you use anything at all which value can be placed on to stake on something else which the outcome is not 100% certain, the person is a gambler. It does not matter how much they stake,, how they react after betting, etc.
