I think responsible risk is the same as only using money that we can afford to lose.
If we can only afford to lose $200 a month then only use that, there is still a risk of losing it all but if that happens it will not affect anything, because that is the amount we can afford to lose.
But it could also be for other gamblers responsible risk is how to use the money to gamble, meaning with a small capital then will play casino games with low volatility, or when betting on sports betting set a small betting percentage to suit the budget.
I think I pretty much have to agree. If a player is playing responsibly, he is losing or playing on money they can afford to lose. As far as playing low volatility games, you sorta make sense as you are likely betting a huge favorite but it can still go wrong for ya.

Yes, that's right. Responsible gambling means a gambler is able or prepared to lose the amount of money they have, which they are free to determine according to the amount they are willing to lose.

As @Strongkored stated, if, for example, the amount we can afford to lose in a certain period is $200, then the amount used or lost should not exceed that amount. It's much better if it's much less than that amount within the time we have planned. This also means that responsible gambling and how we take risks are two different things. You are free to bet with high risks, but as long as the amount lost does not exceed the amount you have set, you can return to betting when your planned time period has passed.
