Women are more emotional which is why there's much less women among pro poker players.

How do they handle addiction and will they find it easier to fight it? I think that women are more family oriented in general and if a woman gambler has a child or gets married she'll put family first and stop playing. I know that women can do that with ease when they feel like it would jeopardize their relationship or well being of their children. My mother used to be a smoker and when she had me she quit because she did not want to intoxicate me. I also know a bunch of women who had no problem quitting jobs and changing their lives because of their husbands or children.
I think there are fewer of them because few women were able to try playing poker initially. If their number were equal, then surely more women would play than now. Also, do not forget that women need to take more care of themselves and they can devote less time to poker than men. If a woman locks herself in a room and plays for days like those who want to learn to play well, then most likely many men will stop paying attention to her. This was said by a poker streamer I once watched, she played very well. If we touch on resistance to losses, then the chances are equal in my opinion and there are no differences.

Yes, you read right as the topic stated. Also, which gender do you think can easily give up on gambling? 

Which gender will get worse when they are addicted to gambling? 

Or do you think it's the same thing for every gender that is into gambling? 

I was just having a little chat on the other thread when I read a member's comment who says that women are better gamblers, which I really disagree with. I believe that men are the better gamblers here. With all my thoughts running through my mind, I just decided to create this topic to get your view on it. 

Although some woman are strong but majority of the woman population have weak emotions and that is why I feel they will easily give up on gambling because they hate to continually loss and the second point is that since women have weak emotions, they can easily get addicted to gambling and can often practice revengeful gambling. 

What is your view? 

I would look at this from a slightly different angle and say that women are generally more risk adverse than men, so are likely to place more conservatively or stay away from gambling in general. Traditionally they have had a disadvantage when it comes to salary as well, which means they had to make their wages go further although it's good to see this has largely equalized in many "developed" countries and is less prominent now. Men are more reckless, gun ho and willing to take high risk chances that do not always pay off - so they will lose money in a stupider way really. In summary, these sort of behaviors would seem to suggest that men are more susceptible to gambling losses.

Women are better gamblers from my observation although anyone can win anytime not minding the gender so the question is not valid, women gamble with emotions is obvious just like what I stated while writing in a topic related to gambling and female gender. Not minding the gender any gambler can develop soft emotion and weakness, the fact is any gender who rely on gambling win can easily fall in this category. I have never seen any female who have gambled for long but rather most of them quit during the process, women can easily resist gambling habit due to loss and stress. What I observed, seeing the male gender quitting gambling is rare despite the emotions and loss and I wonder why it’s very difficult resisting gambling habit

I do not remember reading anything about this, however there seems to be some research that indicates that women on average are more cautious and prudent than men, if true then this could imply that it will be easier for them to give up on gambling before losing too much money or becoming addicted, which in my book makes them better gamblers than men, this also seems to coincide with my personal observations so I would think of women as a rule as being potentially better gamblers than men.

AFAIK it's a common misconception to think that a gender will be more emotionally resistant to addiction or will have more difficulty dealing with the loss.
We manage this in a different way. Men usually don't express emotions, they suffer in silence, while women burst into tears, they show everything on the outside and make us think they suffer more, but they don't. Both genders are affected by same emotions, just deal with them in a different way, but we can't say that women are better or worse than man in this. They're just different.
Our life experiences and the way we were brought up make us more or less resistant to addiction and this is the major factor in how we deal with every problem in our lives.

Women are not as dogged as men. They easily give up and end up becoming emotional. But male gamblers are bolder and better risk-takers. This might be because they have more access to funds.

Gambling addiction will not be good for anybody whether female or male. It is usually worse when men who are breadwinners become addicts because it will affect the very in all areas. However, gambling addiction has no respect for males or females, it can destroy lives regardless of sex.

What is your view?
I agree with your view that women are not emotionally strong like men, so they might not be able to withstand big losses. It is common to see women crying uncontrollably because of losses in any venture, which means physical casinos would have been a crying house if women were majority gamblers. But I don't agree that women can be more addicted to gambling than men. The majority of the women I know can easily control their urges than men. It is common to hear news of men raping women because of lack of control but such news about women is few. This example shows that woman can easily retrace their steps even when they are under a strong influence or urge.

Females, then the newbies which can be either male or female, they will give up especially when they had a first encounter of loss in gambling and they never expected

Which gender will get worse when they are addicted to gambling?

Anyone of them could be as worse anything, this is addiction we are talking about, it is not gender specific.

Or do you think it's the same thing for every gender that is into gambling? 

It's not the same and can as well be same the same base on the level of addiction on each gambler and how they were being affected negatively with it.

If I compare myself and my wife, I'm the one who can lose more and probably get into more trouble because of gambling...she's a much calmer person and knows better with money than I do.

But this is not a question of gender, looking at some documentaries some women have strayed a lot, and for them, the addiction is much more difficult in a way because they face much more condemnation from the community than men.

There is no rule here, both men and women can get too deep into gambling and it can easily turn into more serious problems.  What pushes someone deep is already a matter of psychology, maybe close people who deal with it, maybe some desire in the person that makes him play more and more, who can tell without looking at a specific person and knowing many factors.

I wouldn't bother much with that, after all, everyone has to take care of themselves and their loved ones first and foremost. We know many factors, and what is more important, we can influence someone much more than just with words.

If you see any woman gambling, then she is doing it for fun, and not because she wants to make profit from it. Women are good at managing funds, and that will make them not partake in activities that they know they will run at loss.

When you talk about addiction, it is like a plague, and whoever is addicted be it man or woman will behave the same way because they cannot control themselves anymore. This is why you hardly see women gambling for profit because they know that they can become addicted which will affect them mentally. If a woman gets addicted, she easily get free from addiction compare to a man.

Gambling addiction is often perceived as gender-blind; it treats both men and women equally. When individuals, regardless of gender, lose control over their gambling habits, they exhibit similar behaviors since addiction does not discriminate. Nevertheless, the argument posits that women seldom gamble for financial gain; they have a higher sense of risk associated with addiction which may influence their psychological well-being.

Another perspective suggests that women might be more likely to overcome a gambling addiction compared to men. This could be attributed to various factors including stronger social support systems or women's inclination towards emotional transparency.

Gambling addiction is not easy to beat. To fight the problem of gambling addiction, individuals need first to be aware of the risks. In addition, they require social support and easy access to help sources that can work for them. Both males and females can be caught up by the Gambling Addiction, it is important that if an individual feels ensnared in unhealthy gambling behavior, they should find help as soon as possible.

 If the rate success rate in gambling was even close to 80-90% then i think more women would've been gambling the number of women would've multiplied better than this but then it's not in a woman's nature to take risk it's not like  women don't but they're not much compared to that of men, most  women would rather wait for men to profit from it then get from them, than invest in an upcoming event they're not sure about lol if they hear they stand a chance of losing i don't think majority of them would risk it. But there are men who would even stake their cars, houses and valuable items on a bet, that's one things most women would never do, a woman would never stake her Brazillian or bone straight wig or jewelries to gamble, never.

Which gender will get worse when they are addicted to gambling? 
this is just a complete opinion of mine base of the things I have read online. men tend to get worse when they have gambling addiction because they are more active when it comes to gambling and take more riskier bets compared to women. also, remember while both men and women who have gambling addiction have a insatiable urge to gamble, men and women tend to handle their addiction differently, sadly I can't remember how different exactly men and women handle their addiction, I'll share the article if I should stumble on it again.

Resistant to gambling losses like they don’t care if they lose right? Because many men gambler usually keep gambling not because they don’t care about their loses but rather they can’t sleep thinking that they lose that’s why they keep coming back to play more so that they can recover it. Other people may think that this kind of people has strong resistance to gambling losses but in reality they are extremely weak that’s the way they are chasing losses.

It’s very to compared to gender for this topic because there’s only few female gamble to use as sample for experiments to determine an answer for this question. But for me, Male is more resistant since there’s only few Female gamblers because they can’t take risk of losing.
I have to agree with this. Women might also be exploring in gambling but I guess only few of them will manage to continue gambling, simply because women are born less risk takers than men, and that they won’t suicide in things where they have less chances of winning. Unlike men, they have this pride that they don’t want to see themselves losers in the end, that’s why they keep on proving to theirselves that they can stand the pressures in gambling and win in the end despite of their consistent losses they made.

It is very easy for a woman to be in a bad mood, especially if she encounters things she doesn't like, then how can they remain calm when they experience defeat. So the biggest possibility is that when they experience defeat, they tend to immediately look gloomy, angry and unclear and maybe cry. It is very easy for a woman to check her mood. And this is very different from men, because they find it very difficult to express the frustration and emotional situations they feel. Where when they lose in gambling, they cannot express their frustration by being gloomy or crying, so that when they are disappointed due to the results of the gambling they did, then they will vent their frustration on other things, which can make themselves feel satisfied or calm. , such as drinking wine or slamming objects nearby.

A man can look emotional when he loses at gambling, that's because they can't express their feelings of disappointment or annoyance well, so they always look for an outlet by doing other bad things.

From place to place the number of female gamblers is higher but much lower than male gamblers. Some female gamblers are self-employed which gives them the opportunity to gamble as they wish, while other female gamblers never get that opportunity. Male gamblers, on the other hand, are relatively busy with work and can use the money they earn to spend on family expenses. He has the right to spend the money they earn. He never gives credit to anyone else. Due to which men have more advantage in gambling. Gambling can only be done if you have money and whoever has more money will get that opportunity. Women are more busy with general family planning tasks. Moreover, they are very careful when it comes to spending money. Males show high risk tolerance for gambling but no such thing is observed in females.

are the male gender, when a man becomes addicted to gambling, the guy starts spending all his salary, then goes into a lot of debt and then becomes a thief and consequently gets involved with drugs and dies or gets arrested for stealing or killing someone while robbed this person. while women, when they become addicted, spend their entire salary, go into a lot of debt and then start prostitution and get involved in drugs and die from drug overdoses. women hurt themselves more when they are addicted, while men hurt other people more when they are addicted
Women do not hurt themselves more if addicted to gambling. Let us say generally that gambling is not good for but men and women. Men are more prone to gamble and that makes men more prone to gambling addiction. But generally, gambling is not good. You can see men that committed suicide because of gambling addiction and you have seen men that they are more addicted. I will take men instead. Both men and women are hurting themselves if they are addicted to gambling addiction but men gamble more than women and that makes them more vulnerable to gambling addiction.

Which gender will get worse when they are addicted to gambling? 

the effects of gambling addiction are always bad. but regarding which gender is worse when addicted to gambling, I personally cannot confirm the answer.
When it comes to awareness or emotional control, I think men can be better. This is indeed difficult because every gambler's situation is different.
but I think women who are addicted to gambling will be very serious. especially those who are not yet married or who are separated from their families.

Between females and males, who are more resistant to gambling losses?
If that's what you're asking about survival, risks, gambling problems, of course I have to show you about: Examining Gender Differences for Gambling Engagement and Gambling Problems Among Emerging Adults.[/quote].

As summarized from the research.
Quote
Gender Differences Among Gamblers:

Men and women have different levels of gambling involvement (Stoletenberg et al. 2007), with men having higher levels of engagement and problems than women (Stoletenberg et al. 2007). In a national telephone survey examining the demographic patterns of gambling participation in the United States, men gambled more frequently and had higher losses and wins (Welte et al. 2004). Findings also indicated that 2.9 % of women were problem gamblers compared to 4.2 % of men. Winters et al. (1998) found that 91 % of college men and 84 % of college women reported engagement with gambling (gambling at least once during the prior 12 months period). Of these emerging adults who gambled, 14 % of men and 3 % of women gambled at problematic levels. Gender differences seem to occur as early as young adulthood, but little is known about the risk factors accounting for these differences in gambling involvement. What factors are placing men more at risk for gambling and for having more problems? To create more specific programs and accurately assess problem gamblers, it is important for clinical and counseling programs to consider the specific risk-factors that can account for these gender differences in gambling.

From the data that I read and saw as above, it shows that men are more optimistic and resistant to the risks that occur in gambling, clearly showing different genders.
