For anyone with a gambling addiction that might take this seriously: there's no such thing as a talented gambler, if it's skill-based then it's inherently not gambling (this is why things like carnival games aren't normally regulated as gambling). This is also why card counters are kicked out of casinos, because it's not meant to be something that you can beat.
When ppl want me to play slots or go to the casino I always tell them I can save them the drive and we can just play it here:
We flip a coin, when I win you give me 10$, when I lose I give you 8$. We can play as long as you want.
Somehow when you put it like that they don't want to play anymore.
Better yet:
Give me $1, and I'll roll two six-sided dice. If you roll two sixes, I give you $20.
