Stereotypically, gender is also cited as one of the reasons why people like to gamble. One of the research findings shows that women tend to prefer percentage-odds-based games and men tend to prefer skill-based games.
For example, poker, from a man's point of view is considered a skill-based gamble. While women see it as a game of calculating the odds.
In gambling, generally, women don't like it when others see them lose. Girls probably prefer slot machines because no one sees players win or lose.
Gambling with slot machines is often a personal experience free of guilt or shame. While the men are not like that.
According to research, when a man loses a gamble, there's a machismo attached to him saying, "Yeah, I lost £500, but I can afford it."
And when you win big, guys like it to be exposed right away. Because, they consider this as part of the skill.
This difference in reasons does not necessarily indicate whether men prefer to gamble than women. Women who like to gamble or men who like to gamble are both related to the courage to take risks.
For different reasons, people who like to gamble see it as fun and for reasons that are more complex than just economics.

I know that the number of women involved in gambling is very small because in some countries, people's views of female gamblers are still very bad and they are considered dirty and unfit to be a wife. maybe the results of this research can be used by gambling business owners in developing their business.
I am agree with you. You told appropriate Because i still believe woman are still lagging behind in the game. There are many restrictions in Islamic countries. They do not want to involved woman with gambling. Many people don't want as a wife a lady gambler. And Woman's game is not available in every country still now. So Allover thinking anyone can tell man is forwarded from women. Although day by day females are involving in gambling. If it continues like this, one day the Women will also do well. But still men are ahead of the game. As gambling is open for everyone man and women so today or tomorrow women will involve on a large scale i think. Because women are taking gambling as profession, hobe and for entertainment. So they will be developed in gambling i is true.
