Look at that. I simply dont trust any of those rankings because they completely lack basis.
The source of the information is what makes the report reliable, if that source is coming from an government agency or a private intuition which is popular with doing some analytical job, then we can consider it as a reliable one though we can't say it's completely correct. Having this information is important, at least it will give us some ideas on countries where people gamble the most and we can compare the addiction rate to determine if gambling really affect the life of the people when they are gambling.
Absolutely and Government always wanted a Good impression as this was for their Popularization campaign as gambling is one good source of funds.

but about the thread ?looks like just a private individual that being paid providing Positive feeds for each countries gambling activities?or am i wrong.
Depend with how religion in some country, I think if Moslem will not available for legal casino gambling but almost country except Moslem popularity are legal for casino gambling like United State. But every thing will be happen depend with new government rule because we can't prediction what the government choose at the future with gambling casino, almost country when gambling casino not legal they will spent all of money in other country have legal for casino gambling and give chance for other country with profit from gambling casino.

Australia's population is very limited compared to US and their per capita income is much better than any country in this world, so gambling those huge amounts in USD is not a big deal for Australians as they spend money so wisely, their wins pay off too. I am shocked USA is not in the list, though.
Wow, I didn't know that Australia's per capita income was that high, I was really surprised, and happy about it. I would love for my country to have knowledge and be able to use their money wisely.

Even I didn't, and I forgot to mention this here -
"Australia GDP Per Capita reached 52,158.382 USD in Jun 2020, compared with 55,477.445 USD in Jun 2019. Australia GDP Per Capita data is updated yearly, available from Jun 1960 to Jun 2020, with an average number of 17,940.432 USD."

Isn't it enough to use that money on gambling so easy and quick? They live their life king sized because of less population and more income, higher land prices and so are their higher salaries.
Australia is one of the Best performing country the past year compared to US that until now struggling to recover ,and yeah the Capita is really high comparing to other near by countries so indeed the record tells truth.
Well, I'm not an expert on the subject, but I received several responses in the comment that I made just above.
I aprreciate and respect the way of thinking.

But, that's it, if gambling is legalized it can help the economy (legally) through taxes, if it is illegal it can bring some problems, anyway, it has the positive and negative side.
Everything always have positive and negative site,and even if there is no illegal gambling yet Negative stays .

While taxes are increasing ,losers are also increasing that if there is no gambling to play surely their money will go to creating businesses or other related things that helps the country strengthening .

I really don't think it is a wise idea to gamble but I can say to this is that these people can really afford to lose their money. They use this to please their life without minding it if they lose or win, they got already what they wanted and that to make themselves enjoyed what they do. I think that was more important than being crazy chasing our losses to get back but in the end, we are making more losses to come than winning more.

But still, that is not recommended to losing money without thinking how much money we will lose, even if they have a big amount of income, it still has a chance to make them addicted to gambling. If they can get what they want on gambling, it is better to stop and not continue playing gambling using more money because that can make them desperate when they still lose the money. Chasing our losses will not be recommended too because that will be difficult to do, and the chance to lose more money will wide open.

Well, some people really like gambling, and can afford it, maybe some people do it as a hobby or something.
But there are other people who are addicted to gambling and it can harm her and her family.

I think the confusion here lies in the OP's understanding in the graphs given since you can see the same rankings in the 2nd article clearly gives the same rankings just on another kind of ranking. Also I think the one that is confuses people here is the first article which didn't really explain what kind of ranking they are trying to show. Just remember that even if they give you a "top 10" or any kind of ranking they will have different metrics on it thus giving you discrepancies on one another.

I think there is no correct data for the biggest gambling countries because there are many approaches to count such statistics. obviously that in top will be countries with high GDP where people can afford to lose some money.

This problem can be easily eliminated - we only need to adjust for the standard of living in a particular country. Or use not natural values, but relative ones - such as the average amount of money played in a casino in relation to the average salary in the country.
The average salary in a country cannot be used as a certainty as an estimate of the value of people who gamble, because so far I think that typical people in each country have clear differences, moreover the psychology of people who have often gambled with a lot or little money will be seen, maybe using fiat money can be an alternative and make sure the value of the gambling stakes can be reduced so that they can get a chance to play a lot of rounds.
but at least in some aspect this can be a basis ,because the capacity in Living is one Good reason so people can at least Spend good amount to gamble without the  risk of Their family will suffer .

They are well provided ( but if they will not abused and not become addicted) ,though the sad part in 3rd world countries ,they have the hardest Living yet they wanted to Scape the Living condition thru gambling .

Looking for a Once on a Billion chance to Hit jackpot and Live a  Luxurious life just like that.

Street gambling is still illegal gambling, here in my country, street gambling is frowned upon and the only acceptable illegal gambling is those that have their own houses because they are far easier to clean up when there is a tip of a police raid/inspection. I find it hard that illegal gambling is a normal day to day occurrence in my country/your country because the only winners in those schemes are the illegal gambling house operators and some players that are connected to the owner/operator, the depressing part is that some players that gets drowned in debt are playing at this illegal houses,
sad but they chose to live this life ,they can have other way though tough and hard but what they wanted is Easy money ,things that brings them  more to Slum life and cannot Move forward.

which could result to a tear in family, friend or even one's self. There are even some reports that I have seen where they killed someone because they can't pay the debt that just keeps on growing.
This one is Really unusual but reality ,That Even Lives are wasting Just because of Wrong choice in life.

it is normal that in every country there is Illegal gambling activity ,because there are gamblers that Cannot afford to Play in casino houses and some don't want to be oblige paying for taxes or other related payments in running business ,because we knew how Big market gambling is and how profitable .

And also There are countries that gambling is a Street activities and not like in big countries that they threat this as Special activity .

Meaning that how hard headed people in your country ? Gambling is Illegal yet activities is still rising?
for sure Your country wont be added in lists like OP because of having Strict rules against gambling.

Yes that is the reason that his country doesn't belong or the amount per year spending is too little than in the countries in the list, and also I think different country has their own illegal game that is related to gambling but it will not add to the figures so his country is not belong, here in us people are too addicted in gambling most of them fall into debt because of that, so many are become poor here in my country.

Gambling casino become income for some country where tax pay by casino gambling more higher depend every time almost people around the world like for gambling. I think many people still not understand how big risk with gambling casino but why wanna try waste much money without get profit more, just win one time and later always loss the same what we see on movie about gambling casino always not fair when you try to play. I think enough waste your money for casino gambling and focus for investing only with less risk and you will get much profit during have higher price later.

Perhaps such an assessment has drawbacks, but it is clearly better than the assessment in natural terms. If we evaluate only natural indicators, then the richest countries will simply be at the top - since their inhabitants can afford to spend more money on entertainment. If we take relative indicators, the picture will radically change. In the end, you can always figure out how to correctly combine different indicators in order to get an objective picture.

I don't like the government doing a survey much more on a gambling, they can manipulate this for their needs, I prefer doing it by an independent survey company commissioned by international study companies for compiling data for their would be clients, it's reliable, transparent because they are putting their name on their surveys.
Anything the government does not always good but often end in bias and sometimes lack fairness. The countries that make up this list some are questionable becasue those other countries like India aren't be included on the list. Even my own dear country was missing too, we're known for sport-betting and have more population in this regards but name wasn't included, this could be becasue of the hands the survey fell into.

What is the source for this data ? Is there any gambling governing body who controls all the world wide gambling and issue an official list of most gambling playing nations ?
If there is no such organization, then this data cannot be treated as the final correct data.
I think OP has the source link of it, or maybe he found that in an article , I think government has their data and in some part of it , they are open that data in public so someone can create a list or a tally of it, so I believe in this list, just got little confused for US and Australia, I thought US  will be the first one but surprisingly it is not, and also I thought it is either US or any country in ASIA.

If that is for an illegal gambling game, I am sure many countries will have their own hidden places to gamble for their people. And that will be bigger than we know, and I think the government will not easy to track the places because people who gamble will not say the places to many people. Even if people become poor, that will not make them stop gamble.

You also have to distinguish how many people gamble in a country, and how much volume is involved. You can have a country like China with the most inhabitants, if 50% would gamble there is no one in the world where gambling is more. If there are 1,000 Americans in America who all gamble roughly. then you will get a distorted picture of where gambling is most popular.
it is not about how many gamblers involve because a Thousand bettor with 100$ each as capital per day Is nothing compare to a Whale who spend million in single day of playing.

There may Have Many Inhabitants in China but gamblers from Prominent countries and added those tourists that gambles also there (because they are counted as gambler of that specific country) Can make a double Bet against the Many.
I do not live in the 10 countries that you put on the list, but I believe the gambling activity in my country is also high despite the fact that gambling is illegal
Meaning that how hard headed people in your country ? Gambling is Illegal yet activities is still rising?
