>I don’t know if there is a healthy way to gamble really.

The majority of gamblers keep it within limits, only a small minority lack that control and inevitably end up impoverishing themselves.

The majority of people can’t even control their daily screen time, yet we are supposed to believe they can masterfully restrain their urges when money and dopamine are on the line? Nothing I’ve seen indicates human impulse control is that bulletproof. Furthermore, the 'I have it under control' narrative isn't proof of a healthy habit; it’s practically the universal slogan of active addiction.
