I don't understand the meaning of this gamblers' division into subtypes. I don't like all these frames, personality types, and so on. They create the effect of artificial restrictions. Human characteristics are too complex and multifaceted to be crammed into a list. I don't consider myself to be of any type, and gambling plays the role of a challenge for me.

If you do not think you fit any category that is fine, however the majority of people show a set of characteristics which then can be categorized, now it is true that human behavior is incredibly complex but when we narrow the scope then enough common points can be observed in order to create categories, and I think gambling is narrow enough to allow for the creation of categories like that as the amount of behaviors and reasons to gamble are limited.

Indeed, I don't like to put myself in any category. In general, the concept of categorizing anything repels me. However, I admit that it can be useful for solving the problem of addiction among players and getting to know yourself as a person at a young age. Still, growing up, a human needs frames and categories less, as they acquire their own life experience.
