question on gambling mechanic

[General Jah]

From my in game experience, it seems like you need a higher level gambling skill to succeed with the higher bets, such as 20 vs 5 or 10. Is this what you guys have found to be true as well?

p.s. I really like the game so far, reminds me of fallout 2 etc but obviously with your own flavor, worth every penny!

You mean the blackjack? meh, it seems random to me, you will mostly lose with lower gambling.
The slots machine is very hard to win without it

Well I am only in the early game, just hit lvl 3, but have been able to take all the money from the two gambler NPC I have found so far, but with a bet of 5 its almost a sure thing with my skill around 40, once I hit 60 I am able to consistently win with 20 it seems like but before I could never hit 20

gambling is not such a good skill because you will more money than you need if you do the quests.
It can be useful but it's mostly for fun, not gameplay

It's the drops from combats the main source of income. The game problem for gambling skill seems more that income from gambling and money games is too limited.

Get the money before the combats is something else than after. And the game seems have enough expense possibilities to exploit well to be rich from gambling.

EDIT: Frankly have the option to ignore most selling activities and replace it by gambling sessions looks like an interesting option. But the gambling limits seems too high to really allow it, not that I tested it, but from reading posts.
