This is why gambling is more dangerous to people that are poor and that reason for that is because they can go to any length to make sure that they achieve financial stability through gambling. People in this category don't gamble for fun they only gamble to make money desperately. Gambling doesnt really work that way. If you focus on making it a source of income it's only going to make you lose the little you have
There are levels of being poor, and not all poor people think the same way. A poor person with disciplined mindset knows when to make right decisions. Gambling is always about the uncertain till it happens to become certain. Until the game has ended there is no certainty of rewards, every gambler with experience about such turnover will know that taking cashout is far better than relying in probability of ending the whole bet.
I have known the poor to take more risk than the rich in gambling, it's always been hitting big profits with minor deposit plus high risk.
