Does a broke person have enough money to gamble? How do you define the term "broke"? I think that a person, who is broke doesn't have enough money to put food on the table, which means that he doesn't have any money to gamble. What you are sharing is just common sense. People, who are having severe financial difficulties shouldn't waste their remaining money on gambling, because their situation will get worse.
The problem is that gambling addiction makes them shut down their rational thought process and decision making. This means that all gambling addicts must seek professional help.
