Gambling is for those people who know in detail about the risks of gambling and then participate in gambling. For those who don't know how to take risks, it's not gambling, but gambling with a combination of gains and losses. Only those who have the ability to understand this are gamblers. Again, those who participate in gambling just for the pleasure of it, despite knowing the risks, are essentially the real gamblers.
A gambler is supposed to take risks because that's the essence of what it's about but it's better to take responsible and calculated risks. Even though you are not the type that's an addict but you stake once in a while to have fun don't be tempted to go all in because you are trying to be a risk taker. Always maintain a moderate stake and learn to reduce the risks of the bet as much as you can, this is what makes you smart
