There is a chance that the nature of the game has something to do with the gender that plays in that game most. There is no official study for this yet, but I am thinking that we will find more females playing and drawn to luck-based games than skill-based games because of how difficult the process of learning skill-based games may be.
I think it's for both genders, and generally there are more people who plays in a pure-luck based gambling games. Since, it does not require complex strategies, most people find it more convenient to just place a bet a wait for the luck to come.
But, I've seen women who plays skill based games like poker, chinese poker, and Mahjong and they are equally as good as men.
Another observation about luck-based games that a new gambler with an interest in them has to know is that they have the potential to make you, as a gambler, spend more money gambling than skill-based games.
What do you think?
Well, I think both type of gambling games can make a gambler potentially spend more money some time.
But we find more gambling addicts in a pure-luck based games, simply because there are a lot of people who played that kind of game compared to skill based games.
