did not find "The Gambler" interesting apart from it's stereotypes, This may be because I've seen this story adapted in multiple forms in cinema,

The last was Crime and Punishment which, although I hated it at the time, it matured and ripened in the memory,
Dostoevsky was forced to write this book because he'd pissed away all his money on the gaming tables, Consequently he wrote a cautionary tale about gambling, shagging and hubris, then I suppose he banked the money he got from this, gambled, shagged and went back to playing the important bearded icon of Russian writing of thes.
