GamblingGambling (also known as betting or gaming) is the wagering of something of value ("the stakes") on a random event with the intent of winning something else of value, where instances of strategy are discounted. Gambling thus requires three elements to be present: consideration (an amount wagered), risk (chance), and a prize.

Common devices in games of chance used include dice, spinning tops, playing cards, roulette wheels, numbered balls, or in the case of digital games random number generators.
