meaning that the best approach to gambling will always depend on the understanding of a gambler himself, simply put if for example from the beginning they misunderstand what and how the chances of winning in gambling are then we will always find it difficult to give them advice, meaning they will never want to listen to advice from anyone.

Yes, that's the point, because the initial understanding determines whether the gambler can become a gambling as a place for entertainment or just a place to waste their money or a place to bet to get rich overnight.

Sometimes everyone's goals for getting into gambling are different, and there may be more people who come just for big wins without knowing what the risks will be.

In my country there are many illegal gambling sites that are completely banned by the government, but there are still many that are free and can be accessed easily, this causes a lot of problems because it makes many people addicted and spend all their money to get into gambling which only drains their money without winning and the negative effect is that many are stressed and even commit suicide.

Lately most of my assumptions are heading there, as you have justified the statement I said above that indeed the approach of gamblers will always depend on how they understand at the beginning of their involvement, but that does not mean it is impossible for them to eventually change that approach for the better, but it also depends on the person, because not everyone can immediately change just because they experience one setback.

So as you said that that is what will determine what their goal is to get involved in gambling next, on the other hand this is also something I am worried about considering that now gambling shows from streamers are very easy to find on social media, they do not tell the audience anything about the dangers of gambling which of course has the potential to increase the population of gamblers who eventually become addicted because they come with the wrong understanding.

Another thing regardless of whether you are in a country that legalizes or prohibits gambling, in the end I think the problem of addiction still depends on how someone responds to the activity from the beginning he sees it.
