A character who likes a flutter, and whether it's on horse races, poker, or lottery, they do it to the extent where it becomes a bad habit or starts to cause problems. They spend the family's rent money, lose their job, or end up owing a lot of money to The Syndicate.
At the less extreme end, the character will stick to small bets and simply enjoys the game. In some cases, they may even be able to make a profit from their gambling. At the more extreme end, the character is fully addicted and quite capable of ruining their own finances, lives and those of the people around them. Perhaps more common in older works and literature, when people had to make their own entertainment and card games were a much more common social activity.
Sometimes a character develops this trait temporarily, usually in a sitcom. In these cases, their new habit will often lead to a big loss, and the rest of the episode will be spent trying to recover the money or property. It's also a very convenient "habit" for a writer to use as a Compressed Vice because, as an emotional addiction, it doesn't carry outward signs that would have to be written in or accounted for later, and, as a legal or quasi-legal addiction, can be fully depicted in even some Family Friendly works and is more "realistic" as an addiction for some characters than, say, heroin. Unfortunately, this often leads viewers to believe it is a Compressed Vice in real life—when real-life gambling addicts range the spectrum from Compressed Vice/temporary irresponsibility to those who literally cannot stop and do incur problems with the criminal justice system or are even Driven to Suicide.
The difference between the Professional Gambler and the Gambling Addict is that the Professional Gambler is actually more of a combination of risky investor, actor and mathematician/logician, whereas Gambling Addicts often don't know or care about the odds or strategies to play them for the best possible outcome, nor do they Know When to Fold 'Em. In fact, the Gambling Addict often picks games that can't be influenced by acting or by analytical skill, such as roulette, slots, video poker, keno, or lotteries. They may think they have a "system", though. Rather than for any calculable gain, they play for the thrill and the prospect of the win that will come "any day" but likely never does (or does, but they lose it again); if they try to stop, they will find they cannot because they are hooked on this feeling.
Not to be confused with The Gambler. Often leads to being Trapped by Gambling Debts. Gambling Addiction may lead to an Absurdly High-Stakes Game. More likely than most to start a Gambling Brawl when experiencing a losing streak. If a story arc focuses on a character becoming this, it's an example of Descent into Addiction. A common reason for why Gambling Ruins Lives.

Jerma985 has a habit of playing Betting Mini Games, sometimes for hours at a time, in any game that offers them, usually ending with losing it all at the end. He also makes superficial bets against his chat, which is how his $2.5 billion "gambling debt saga" started. It might've gotten this bad even since he moved to Las Vegas.

In Stan Lee's Lucky Man, the title character Harry is a compulsive gambler whose addiction has destroyed his marriage and left him millions of pounds in debt to a Triad casino owner. The plot kicks off when a woman gives him a Tang Dynasty bracelet that grants supernatural luck. Among the roller coaster of events that unfolds, it helps Harry kick his addiction because it's not gambling if you always win.

In Archie Bunker's Place, there was an episode called "Barney the Gambler," where Barney is now the hopeless addict, and it is up to Archie — who does manage to quit gambling for good in the former episode (in fact, several referbacks are made to "Archie the Gambler") — and Murray to come to Barney's rescue when bookies want to beat Barney to within an inch of his life when he doesn't have the money.

David Scatino from Season 2. Even worse for him, the people he gets into bed with are The Mafia, namely Tony Soprano. After a few bad poker games, Tony and his crew basically take over his whole business and drive him into bankruptcy. He ends up losing his family and is later, according to Meadow, committed to a mental institution.

She's even left her kids with her gambling debts.

While he wasn't a gambling addict, at least one of his opponents was, having recently lost his brand new car to the victim, which made him an extremely viable suspect.

In Suits, one of Harvey's clients is a gambling and alcohol addict who went Off the Wagon in an Atlantic City casino. The man lost 3 million dollars on a single hand of poker. A horrified Harvey then finds out that the gambler obtained the chips by using his 34 million dollar company as collateral for a loan. The man wanted to gamble so badly that he could not even wait to have money transferred to him from his bank and made a ludicrous deal with a total stranger.

At one point he tells Derfel that he only has a few more years as a fighter left and he wants to become rich before retiring home to Ireland, to which Derfel tells him "Then you should burn your throwboard".

The Simpsons:
Krusty the Klown is constantly betting on sporting events. Covering these bets has gotten into trouble in several episodes; "Krusty Gets Busted" has Krusty's gambling losses used as a possible motive as why he would commit armed robbery, and in "Homie the Clown" he squanders the money he made from his clown college by betting against the Harlem Globetrotters ("I thought the Generals were due!"), getting targeted by the mafia as a result. In "A Tale of Two Springfields," Krusty is such a Gambling Addict that he wakes up from anesthesia to take part in a bet.
In "$pringfield" Marge Simpson becomes addicted to slot machines when a casino's built in Springfield, and shows this trait occasionally in subsequent episodes.
In "Lisa the Greek", Lisa Simpson had a nightmare that she might end up becoming one after learning Homer only used her to help him gamble.

An episode of Dragnet 1967, "The Big Gambler", had Friday and Gannon find one when a businessman reports someone's embezzled $100,000 of company funds. Turns out the thief played both the horses (illegally through a bookie) and draw poker (at the time, legal in some cities outside of Los Angeles). He was a hopeless loser at both, and hiding the addiction from his wife by claiming he had a family in Ohio to support and a second job to help pay the bills.

Peter Battley in The Case Of The Golden Idol has a serious gambling addiction, which has caused him a number of problems; he has often written to family members asking them for money, and is rarely seen without a horse-racing betting slip in his pockets. His addiction led his wealthy uncle Sebastian to all but write him out of his will, leaving him only a book of aphorisms on how to live healthy.

Ironically, the one time he wins big is what gets him murdered: He has invented a computer virus worth a fortune to pay off his debt to Furio Tigre, but before he hands it over, his lottery number hits, winning him enough money to pay off his debt to Tigre by simply handing over his ticket. Tigre, who's in a massive debt of his own that he needs to pay off that the lottery ticket won't cover, murders him and steals the virus.

In Risk It All, Ren falls on the more minor end of this trope. He became hooked on gambling after winning a hundred dollars from a poker game with his co-workers, joining games at back alley gambling dens before moving up to casinos in hopes of earning money for himself and his parents. Luckily, he's good enough to make a tidy profit, but all of it goes down the drain when he gets shot and put in a coma. He initially swears to give up gambling after seeing how his habit nearly killed him, but soon finds that his new superpowers revolve around it.

Youji Isshiki, Futaba's uncle, is in debt from heavy gambling and failed business ventures, which is why he tries to shake down Sojiro for money. His Shadow reveals that he felt quite a rush when he got his first win, and you can respond by calling him a gambling addict.
Futaba's Childhood Friend Kana was forced by her Abusive Parents to become a Fanservice Model, keeping her out of school to earn money to pay off their gambling debts in lieu of them simply getting jobs. After the Thieves change their hearts, they admit that it started as them just wanting to put food on the table for her but it spiraled out of control.

My Name Is Earl:
Earl is asked to help Kenny become more manly following a breakup. One of the things they do is gambling, and Kenny develops an addiction and loses all his possessions. Earl is not much better, either; he too becomes addicted, and his compulsive gambling indirectly causes his friend Catalina to be deported. Kenny eventually seeks treatment at a support group. Earl doesn't, but he really hasn't gambled since.
There's also Earl's ex-mother-in-law, Connie. Earl had (with help from Randy) won a brand new Dodge Neon to give to Joy (to make up for all the thoughtless, crappy Christmas gifts he gave her when they were married), and Connie drove the car to the local Indian Casino and lost it. She also gambled away her husband's business, after getting him to sign it over to her, and gambled away their savings (her husband thought she was using the money to pay for dialysis.)

Shows up as a negative quirk in Darkest Dungeon. Characters who develop a gambling addiction can only reduce Stress by gambling. This is one of the more annoying "stress restriction" quirks, since characters who are at the Gambling Hall are apt to lose significant amounts of gold on the table (they can also win gold, but it's not as likely). If they also get the quirk "Known Cheat" (which renders them Persona Non Grata at the Gambling Hall), they can't reduce their Stress at all, leaving you with the Sadistic Choice of either spending a great deal of gold getting one quirk or the other cured or kicking the character out of the roster.

In the Disney Ducks Comic Universe this was the goal of one of Rockerduck's most successful plans against Scrooge (explicitly inspired in-universe by Fyodor Dostoevsky's novella The Gambler): first have Brigitta chase him into the casino he opened just for this plan (he had the license for a long time, but never used it because he knew Gladstone would bankrupt it in a day, and got him on a world cruise just for the plan), then threaten to kick him out unless he gambles, and then have professional cheaters let him win long enough for Scrooge to become addicted to the victories before having them win everything and then some until they could have him interdicted with Brigitta as his caretaker and then force Scrooge to marry her to get his money back. It worked, at least until Brigitta realized what she had done and got the Nephews and, most importantly, Paperinik to help, with Paperinik scaring the addiction out of Scrooge while having a disguised Gladstone bankrupt the casino.

Masayoshi Tanimura from Yakuza 4 will often skip out on work to gamble instead, with horse racing and mahjong seeming to be his favourites. While this doesn't lead to financial troubles - on the contrary, he makes enough bank to support a program that helps immigrant children - it's still a nasty habit, and his guardian expresses concern about it becoming full-blown addiction. He's right to be worried; Tanimura discovering a new gambling hall ends up with him playing a game of Russian roulette for a measly 3 million yen (roughly equivalent to $20,000, which would be nothing to sneeze at if lives weren't on the line).

In Hero: 108, Commander ApeTrully displays a problem with gambling in the episode "Crocodile Castle". To win an audience with the king, he has to match 3 yoyo icons on a slot machine, and because all of the slot machines are rigged to never match 3 yoyo icons, he ends up spending a lot of gold and most of his own energy.

Psychonauts 2: Hollis Forstyhe, acting leader of the Psyhconauts in place of the incapacitated Truman Zanotto, briefly becomes this thanks to Razputin tampering with her mind. During "Hollis' Hospital", Razputin tries to convince her to take him and his fellow interns along on a mission by manipulating her thoughts. This has the unfortunate side effect of convincing Agent Forsythe that gambling can solve the Psychonauts' financial problems, even though she'd be in hot water if she got caught using her psychic powers to cheat. Raz must go back into Agent Forsythe's mind to undo the damage he did, and finds that Forsythe's memories of working in a hospital before joining the Psychonauts have been merged with the motif of a casino to become "Hollis' Hot Streak" (complete with the embodiment of a gambling addiction as the level boss).

California Split: Both main characters could adequately be described thusly. Charlie literally does nothing but gamble, and will bet on anything. Bill, who gets sucked into Charlie's lifestyle, winds up losing his job, falling deep into debt, and hocking his car and possessions, so he can get a bus ticket to Reno and gamble some more. Their fates are different: Bill realizes he has a problem and that he can't sustain his lifestyle; Charlie also recognizes his habits are ultimately unfulfilling, but has made peace with them.

In The Flintstones, Fred Flintstone had a severe gambling problem, to the point where simply mentioning the word "bet" in his presence caused him to get a crazy look in his eyes and start repeating the word over and over. This is later brought up in a Family Guy episode, but then turns to the camera claiming it isn't funny and you should seek help as gambling addiction is a real problem.

Fallout:
Implied in Fallout: New Vegas. At the old Mormon fort the Follower of the Apocalypse use as an outpost to provide relief to Freeside, quite a few gamblers can be found receiving treatment.
Vault 21 was a Vault composed entirely of gamblers who settled everything through games of chances. As far as Vaults went, they actually managed to sustain their way of life for a long time until the day they encountered Robert House, who won the rights to their Vault in a game of Blackjack and converted it into a casino.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire gives us Ludo Bagman, a Ministry of Magic official who's introduced running a betting pool at the Quidditch World Cup. He then acts as a minor Red Herring, offering to help Harry in the tournament for reasons he keeps to himself. It turns out that, in George's words, "he's lost everything gambling. Hasn't got two Galleons to rub together." He wanted to help Harry because he was betting on him to win the tournament, and the winnings would have squared his debt with goblin bankers. Since Harry draws with Cedric instead of winning outright, Bagman goes on the run.

Detective Ed Green on Law & Order liked to play poker in Atlantic City for some pretty high stakes (one game had him start "up a Cadillac" and end "down a Rolex — a stainless steel Rolex"), though this seems to fade as the show progresses. After he finds out about his ex-partner's death, he starts hitting the New York City illegal gambling circuit. It almost costs him his badge when he gets mixed up in a shooting involving some of the gamblers he fell in with.

Pokémon Black and White introduces us to Grimsley, a Dark-type trainer and member of the Unova Elite Four. According to developer interviews, as a child, he was the son of a wealthy family that lost their fortune and fell into poverty. This led to him betting on Pokemon battles in an attempt to regain his family's wealth; by the time he reached adulthood, he had become a full-blown gambling addict. He reappears in Pokémon Sun and Moon with Exhausted Eye Bags and grey streaks in his hair, presumably due to money-related stress.

Several characters in One Piece, although in most cases it's an Informed Flaw:
Paulie of Water-7 is described as a huge gambler. He is first introduced fleeing from debt collectors and actually tries to steal the Straw Hats' 300 Million to pay them off.
Buffalo of the Don Quixote Pirates is also a huge gambler, but from what some mooks say, he has terrible luck at the roulette. That doesn't stop him from borrowing money from Baby-5 to fuel his addiction.
Admiral Fujitora is introduced constantly betting on the roulette wheel. Being blind, he can't see where the ball lands himself, and almost gets bilked out of his money by the cheating other players. After Luffy defeats Doflamingo, he rolls the die to see whether he should arrest the pirate or not.

Uncut Gems revolves around a jeweler which just can't stop gambling (specifically on basketball), to the despair of his girlfriend, his friend - and his creditors. After he makes the biggest sale of his life, he still redirects the $175,000 into a complicated gamble. While it does pay off into $1.2 million, it also leads a mobster to shoot the guy in the face before he can collect it.

Jaeyun in Brawlhalla was a very skilled mercenary who would often lose all the amazing riches he made in absurd bets. He hasn't changed much in Valhalla, since he loves making huge anonymous side-bets on himself.

Father Ted:
The title character is heavily implied to be one. The reason he's stuck on Craggy Island is because he embezzled funds earmarked for sending a sick child to Lourdes in order to finance a trip to Vegas. Throughout the series he's continually making side bets.
One-off character Father Billy O'Dwyer from "Think Fast, Father Ted" is also one. Already deep in debt, he can't resist buying a ton of Ted's raffle tickets and getting even deeper in debt, which he solves by stealing the raffle proceeds.

All in the Family: In the 1974 episode "Archie the Gambler," Edith reveals that in his younger days, Archie was a hardcore gambler, his habit nearly costing them everything; he had already gambled away his car, and was this close to gambling away their house. In the latter instance, Edith puts her foot down and gives him an ultimatum: Stop gambling now, or I leave and I'm taking our daughter (Gloria, who was only 3 at the time) with me. Archie shapes up ... or — as evidence strongly shows in this episode — did he just get better at concealing his gambling? note  Or, more likely, learnt the art of scaling it back to a manageable level.

Jean falls in love with an addict named Jackie who, when he first sees her, is being tossed out of the casino in Enghien for trying to steal chips. She says that she has slept on benches before after losing her money gambling. She also says that her gambling led to her divorce and her husband getting sole custody of their 3-year-old son. She has a toy roulette wheel in her suitcase, and says that sometimes, when she doesn't have any money, she uses it to gamble alone.

This backfired horribly when Alastor stripped him of his power and enslaved him, and now Husk can do nothing except drink his regrets away for the rest of eternity.

Daria, the fiancée of the victim, was a gambling addict who'd gotten deep into debt over her losses. She put up her car as collateral, but then ran away instead of handing it over after losing again. The winner tracked her down, running her car off of the road, but it was actually her fiancé inside whom he killed instead. She started getting help for this, but relapsed when her loss occurred.

She theorizes that she has always been addicted to gambling, but her alcoholism generally took precedence and left her too poor to seriously gamble. Now that she has put her life back together and is able to save up money, gambling is becoming a serious issue for her. Her Gambler's Anonymous sponsor suggests that it is a symptom of her low self-esteem. Whenever things go good for her, she has a need to gamble so her life will go back to being a mess. When she is poor and depressed, her need to gamble goes away.

In The Almighty Johnsons Mike is an interesting variation. As the incarnation of the Norse god of the hunt, he cannot lose at games. However, if he uses his powers to gamble, he is quickly unable to stop and keeps on winning and winning. This obviously makes the people he plays against extremely suspicious. After one night of this, he is banned for life from the local casino and has to find underground gambling establishments to play in. The people playing in those types of places are just as unhappy about his winning streak and much more likely to employ violence. It does not help matters that when Mike is winning he becomes extremely arrogant and seems to subconsciously pick fights with dangerous people like bikers and ex-convicts.

The Golden Girls:
"All Bets Are Off" reveals that Dorothy is a former gambling addict, and when she takes Rose to the local horse track for innocent reasons, the addiction quickly rears its head again. Sophia doesn't mince words about the problem, calling it "that damned gambler's disease," and tells Blanche and Rose that Dorothy nearly lost her house to loan sharks during her previous addict period. The episode ends with Dorothy admitting that she needs help and going to Gamblers' Anonymous, although since it's a Compressed Vice, we never hear about it again.
The two-parter "Sophia's Wedding" reveals where Dorothy got her gambling problem: her father, Salvadore, was also a compulsive better. When he and his friend Max Weinstock went into business selling pizza and knishes, Sal foolishly risked a week's receipts on a horse race. Max took the fall to save Sophia's marriage, as she recognized the gambling as an issue and threatened to leave Sal over it. Other episodes also have Sophia commenting on Sal's recurring gambling issues ("His last words were 'Ten bucks says I don't need this oxygen'").

In fact, surviving the Deadly Game only seems to have made it worse as the resulting Chronic Hero Syndrome ends up seeming more like an excuse to keep getting himself into more dangerous gambling scenarios. After a while, even the friends that he saved start to get sick of his shit because even when he wins big and finds a way out, he just worms his way back in because it's never enough.

They win, giving them the money they need and a bit extra on top, but Gerald convinces them to let it all ride on another spin, and they lose everything. Stan calls the townsfolk out on this, but Randy just tells him to drop it.

Apparently, Disillusioned Adventurers Will Save the World has two: Tianna, one of the main characters, and Donny, the boyfriend of resident idol Agate, but while they both adopted gambling as a coping mechanism for their troubles they have very different attitudes toward it, as Tianna is quick to call it a day whenever she starts losing too much and avoided debts, while Donny became obsessed and indebted, and eventually lost his relationship with Agate.

In the Mahabharata, this is Yuddhisthra's one Fatal Flaw. He ends up betting his kingdom, his brothers, and their shared wife in a dice game, which proves to be the last straw in the rising conflict between the Pandavas and the Kauravas.

A subplot in season 3 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is Susie developing a gambling problem after accompanying Midge on tour to Vegas. She continues gambling when she returns to New York, to the point where even her bookie suggests she take a break after a loosing streak. It climaxes in the finale, when she loses all her money AND all Midge's money (which she was supposed to be managing) betting on boxing. She ends up burning her recently deceased mother's house down to collect insurance money so she won't have to tell Midge.

Given the setting of the movie as an underground poker world, many of the characters in Rounders. Only Worm might be an actual addict; Mike is able to walk away after he loses his stake and Joey Knish is a very disciplined player, delivering an impassioned speech specifically about not taking unnecessary risks lest he be unable to feed his family.

Sherlock Holmes: Possibly Dr. Watson, who admits to spending "about half [his] wound pension" betting on the races. An earlier story also mentions that Watson's checkbook is kept locked in Holmes' desk and thus can only be accessed with Holmes' permission. Granting veto power on major expenditures to a trusted third party in this way was a common Victorian method for people who knew they had gambling or spending problems to keep from spending or wagering more than they could afford. Although since this is revealed in a story where Holmes deduces that Watson had decided not to make an investment in a South African mining venture because he hadn't requested access to the checkbook, Watson clearly has some control over his addiction.

Fallen London: With the Heart's Desire ambition being a massive card game, it's only natural those addicted would get involved; and in fact, your final opponent is very much addicted to the game of the Marvelous. And you can use it against him, as the game can keep going and be played again so long as the players keep adding bets and the other ones accept them; with this last enemy, you can just keep playing until you win. And even rub it in his face by betting one penny in what is otherwise an Absurdly High-Stakes Game, and have him accept it anyways. And he hates it. He hates it so much that when you beat him, thus losing him his chance to just cancel the game forever like he wanted, he'll just bet the entirety of his mind and instantly fold, effectively committing suicide because he's tired of how much he loves the damn game. You don't have to accept his bet, either.

Nate Westen from Burn Notice was characterized this way early on. He was in a good deal of debt, and couldn't be trusted with money because he would just gamble it away. He once gambled away his brother's rental car. In later seasons he seems to have gotten his act together once he gets married and has a son. However, after Nate is killed his mother discovers that Nate owes a lot of money to some very bad people.

The Sopranos:
David Scatino from Season 2. Even worse for him, the people he gets into bed with are The Mafia, namely Tony Soprano. After a few bad poker games, Tony and his crew basically take over his whole business and drive him into bankruptcy. He ends up losing his family and is later, according to Meadow, committed to a mental institution.
Tony himself becomes one towards the end of the series. At one point, he tries to get Carmela to use the profits from a house sale to place a bet on the New York Jets. His inability (or unwillingness) to pay his debts (incurred due to gambling losses) basically ruins his friendship with trusted confidant and advisor Hesh Rabkin.
