I think its possible to amplify or pick up crime as a result of gambling experience. In particular, more so I think, in relation to old fashion walk in casinos.
Any person who has got addicted to gambling the chances of happening of crime also increases with that cases. Though it will a few % among that addictions who can commit crime and it will happen when they lose all their money and want more to gamble.
Well it's the same when you get addicted to harmful drugs. Your body craves for it and when you don't have the means to sustain your gambling, you get to do things you don't normally do. It's like an itch that won't go away unless you scratch it and desperstion sometimes lead to doing things we don't really want to do.
