Both responsible and irresponsible gamblers consist of high and low rollers. No cheap gambler, gamers can't be tagged poor, it's better called low rollers, as we can't determine for sure who's poor, indeed. A rich player can decide to be a low roller and a poor high roller. That is gambling above his income. Hence, the attitudes of these sets of people must differ, gamblers who are irresponsible have the same behavior regardless of their financial status, same as the irresponsible players. We all know what happens when one chooses to be irresponsible in gambling. If he's rich, he could end up poor as you said. Risk in this context means who gambles with a huge amount of money. A poor person can't afford to wager a huge amount, but what makes him a high roller, can be a low rolling for a rich player.

So, the risk for a person who doesn't possess lots of money could be going the extra mile by borrowing, illegal businesses, to raise money for gambling. However, trying to match this context of reason can be difficult in terms of behavior and type of gambler. Looking at the perspective of a rich player who chasing losses, is he actually in need of the money or addicted to the behavior? He's rich and may not be seriously on the lookout for more, to the extent of chasing losses. He could wager a huge amount and wait for another time to gamble. Unless he wants to go broke, then chasing losses while wagering huge amounts will take him there. Gambling is a risk for everyone, and the amount we wager doesn't define whether we are rich or poor in real life.

Well actually we don't have to bring someone's background in problem gambling because after all it all depends on how the approach they have on gambling which is simply that if for example they have the wrong approach and that is not recommended then obviously the impact will be very bad, and maybe we can only see them from their responsibility or I mean whether they are responsible or not and how they treat their gambling activities, this is outside of being poor or rich and more like whether they put something that they can be responsible for or not.

Rich or poor at the end of the day it's the same and I think the scenario of some of the actions that they would take would not be much different if they were the irresponsible gamblers and in terms of the impact it would be the same and maybe the only difference would be the timing of who would be worse off sooner. However, risk is never indiscriminate, or in other words, the possibility of risk in gambling will never see your background, rich or poor still have the same possibility but maybe with a different amount of loss.

Think of a well-connected rich irresponsible gambler, his problem gambling can be settled easily by his acquittances. But a player who is not connected and financially stable will suffer his problems alone with fewer people concerned to help. That's the only difference I can recur that makes being rich and connected as an addict, better than not having enough funds and connection. I do ask myself, who will be there for me when things go wrong? It's an excellent self-question as a gambler. It's not just trying to follow the ways of the high rollers, or knowing who is taking the most risk. Every action must be thought about to the cure before we take an action. It's not an easy thing, but putting in the right work and choice is worth it.

The high rollers can easily fall back on his people, and they'll fund him more money. Unlike a player who has little or none to offer financially, he'd lose out lots of friends, if he had any, and be left with nothing. A player who is not close to his family is expected to crosscheck all these, before trying to engage in gambling risks. Anything can happen to any gambler, hence having an escape plan is just as crucial as having the game plan. Getting caught up in gambling addiction is quite very painful and regretful. The world has changed and lots of people are depressed, being in a more severe condition as gambling addiction, in a time like this is very disturbing and dreadful. Players must be observant of the world around them, to know their next move.
