You’ve putting up a very big argument here about gambling which does has its advantage and disadvantages in real life. First of all, gambling is not a place one would rely on to help curb irresponsible decision making in life, real life scenario and the gambling life are incompatible, so it makes the experiment futile and can’t achieve anything meaningful when compared to one another to help want to curb real life decisions.

Doing this same experiment with gamblers because of the result expected from them during gambling is being monitored, then it will be a good way to manage their risk and also find out what external feelings forces them to make some kind of decisions that led to them losing in those games. It is a good experiment when experimented within the circle of gambling but not outside the gambling environment because they’re not compatible.
