He concluded by saying, ”What is left for you as a player is to study this distinct connection and carefully make your choice accordingly. You could be smiling to the bank in no time”.
This article will look into some of the most common personality types and the type of casino game that suits them.
Different Personalities And What Suits Them
We’ve grouped some of the most common personalities and the type of online casino game synonymous with them.
1. Introverted and Reserved
If you’re a very reserved person that doesn’t like disturbance, you like to play alone, stay cool, and gamble in peace. Then you’ll definitely like video poker and slots.
These games allow you to play without much stress. Giving you the time to develop sure winning strategies.
2. Risk-Taking Extrovert
Do you like to take risks? Big risks that stir up your adrenaline and give you the thrills. If you fall into this category, you’ll like games with very high payouts. Offerings like progressive slots, keno, and craps.
However, you need to be careful, so you don’t lose your entire money, and though you might think it’s irrelevant, good bankroll management will go a long way in ensuring you keep betting for long.
3. Speculators
These are people who think like entrepreneurs. They are different from the calculative personalities in that they see gambling as a business. They love analyzing and calculating the risks of games before they even start playing.
They also love embarking on risky games, and like most entrepreneurs, they love it when they are successful. People like this are more into poker and blackjack because these options involve strategies and have high stakes.
4. Competitive
Suppose you’re the competitive type that likes to be against the odds. You know it’s difficult, sometimes impossible, but you don’t care.
You derive joy from conquering things that are greater than you. Playing poker is exactly what will fit your personality.
5. Free Minded
Some people see gambling as a way to relieve stress and free their minds from life’s troubles. These sets of folks are called escapists, and they like to spend hours playing a casino game that doesn’t involve any strategy or technique.
The only game that comes to mind here is slots. Even better, most slot machines are created with beautiful themes that entertain and calm you. So go for them.
6. Flashy and Show Off
Some people are naturally flashy; they always feel like they’re on top of the world. They can spend huge amounts of cash if it gets them the attention they seek.
In online casinos, people like these tend to tilt towards baccarat, online roulette, and blackjack. These games offer a sense of luxury and complexity that helps fuel the person’s ego.
7. Calm and Calculated
Some people don’t solely see gambling as a form of entertainment. They are there to make money and do their calculations to ensure they leave with a profit.
Calculative people like this are more likely to play slots and video poker. These games have a standard RTP (Return to Player Percentage), and they know that every penny they put in has a role to play in the size of their payouts.
In Summary
These are the most common personalities and the games they enjoy. To summarize everything, here are some of the most played online casino games and the personalities of their players.
- Slots: Introverted, free Minded, and calculative people
- Roulette: Flamboyant and flashy people
- Blackjack: Flamboyant, risk-taker, and competitive
- Video Poker: Free-minded and introverted people
- Keno: Extroverted people.
The Bottom Line
One major benefit of online casinos is the plethora of available games; the only problem is that choosing a game you’ll like might become very hectic.
We’ve shown you how your personality can directly affect how you gamble. You’ll probably find solace in playing slots and video pokers if you’re free-minded or introverted. On the other hand, if you’re the type that enjoys taking heavy risks and likes to show off your gambling abilities, keno, baccarat, roulette, and blackjack in online casino will suit you.
Lastly, most gambling websites offer demo modes where players can play without money or registration. You can use this as a filter to improve your abilities.

Unlocking games revenue: player behavior and payment trends in the west | Newzoo x Tebex Whitepaper

Tebex, the leading payments solution for gaming, reaching $1Bn in processed payments and powering over 30,000 web stores, is launching the first industry-wide look at payment trends in EU and NA with Newzoo on Tuesday, August 12 at 09:00 AM CEST.
Why This Data Matters
In a maturing Western games market with slowing payer growth (North America: +1.1% CAGR, Europe: +3.1% CAGR, 2023-2027), studios must shift from acquiring new players to maximizing value from existing ones. The data reveals critical insights into player motivations, spending patterns, and payment preferences, enabling developers to craft targeted monetization strategies that boost revenue, enhance retention, and align with player expectations.
Global Market Snapshot (2025)
- Market Size: $188.9B (+3.4% YoY), with North America ($52.7B, 28%) and Europe ($33.1B, 18%) driving 46% of global spend despite housing only 20% of players (3.54B total).
- Payer Spending Power: North America leads with $324.9 avg. annual spend per payer; Europe averages $125.4 ($170.0 Western, $51.6 Eastern).
- Value: High per-payer spend in Western markets highlights the opportunity to deepen monetization through tailored strategies.
Spending Motivations Drive Strategy
- North America: 34% of payers spend to unlock exclusive content, 29% for personalization (character customization), reflecting a desire for self-expression. Studios can capitalize by offering unique cosmetics and content packs to drive engagement.
- Europe: 28% prioritize deals/offers, 21% value ad-free experiences, showing value-driven behavior. Discounted bundles and subscription models can increase conversion in this region.
- Value: Understanding regional motivations allows studios to align offerings with player priorities, enhancing loyalty and spend.
Diversified Spending Patterns
- North America: 27% of payers invest in content packs, power-ups, and in-game currencies, with subscriptions (24%) and battle passes (23%) also strong.
- Europe: In-game currencies and content packs lead (21% each), followed by subscriptions (20%) and gear/time-savers (18% each).
- Value: Diverse spending across virtual goods underscores the need for varied monetization options to capture a broad range of player preferences, boosting average transaction value (ATV).
Payment Methods Unlock Higher Spend
- ATV Trends (2025): Overall, ATV rose from $30 (2024) to $40. BNPL (North America: $85.0, Europe: $72.0) and crypto (North America: $94.8, Europe: $111.6) outperform cards (North America: $52.2, Europe: $42.7).
- Dual-Method Impact: Players using cards + BNPL/crypto maintain transaction frequency while spending more.
- Value: Offering alternative payment methods like BNPL and crypto can significantly increase ATV, especially in Western markets, without sacrificing transaction volume.
Revenue by Platform and Genre
- Microtransactions (MTX): Drive 49% of PC and 52% of console revenue in North America; 42% (PC) and 51% (console) in Europe. Mobile is near 100% in-game revenue.
- Top Genres: North America favors shooters, Europe prioritizes sports, with RPGs and puzzles strong in both.
- Value: High MTX revenue and genre preferences guide studios to focus on live services and region-specific content to maximize engagement.
Strategic Takeaways
- Deepen Monetization: With modest payer growth, studios must focus on existing players by offering personalized content and value-driven deals.
- Diversify Payment Options: Cards and wallet still dominate in volume, but integrating BNPL and crypto can unlock higher ATV, especially in Western markets.
- Align with Player Values: Transparency, fairness, and seamless payment experiences reduce churn and build loyalty in a competitive market.
- Understand the why and how players spend: NA players are more likely to spend for personalization and self-expression, while EU players are more value-conscious, prioritizing deals and an ad-free experience.

“Today’s players want to know what they’re paying for – and why. How you monetize matters more than ever.”

Global Gaming League Launches New Era of Competitive Video Gaming with T-Pain vs. NE-YO Showdown and More

The Global Gaming League (GGL) announced its first season of year-around competitions titled SZN Zero. Backed by entertainment visionary Clinton Sparks and Grammy-winning artist and streaming icon T-Pain, the GGL is the first-of-its-kind, multi-title, live-action gaming entertainment league, where professional gamers, influencers, and casual players compete side-by-side in front of live audiences in Las Vegas and available globally on major platforms. Teams compete in popular game titles ranging from Call of Duty and Rocket League to Tetris and Street-Fighter.
Each event will feature two celebrity owned teams made up of four players each – high profile influencers, actors, athletes, artists, and both professional and casual gamers – facing off in four round matches covering four different genres. Superstar hosts and half time shows from major artists will turn up the entertainment factor. SZN Zero events will take place in Las Vegas, building up to a championship match in November live from the iconic Palms resort and casino, and the Global Gaming League will continue with SZN One in 2026.
SZN Zero’s first competition on August 23rd will feature T-Pain’s team Nappy Boy Grizzlies against three-time, Grammy award-winning hitmaker NE-YO and his Gentleman’s Gaming Team – finally facing off after months of social media trash talk and rivalry about who’s better at Tekken. The event will stream live on the GGL’s YouTube channel and other major platforms.
T-Pain, who is GGL’s Director of Strategy, was the league’s first team owner. NE-YO joins previously announced owners Flavor Flav and Bryce Hall along with Gillie Da Kid & Wallo.
“We wanted to build something that brought gamers from different backgrounds and cultures together in a unique way that was equally fun and competitive. With SZN Zero, we will introduce an authentic and relatable form of entertaining competition that will converge music, fashion, celebrity, and culture bringing the biggest form of entertainment in the world – video gaming – to the masses,” said Clinton Sparks, Founder and CEO of the Global Gaming League.
“Gaming is just as important as music or any other sport, to me. NE-YO had some words for me on socials, I heard enough of what he had to say and felt it was time to show him that I actually do this. But honestly I’m just ready to have some fun with my friend, because bottom line, that’s what gaming is all about. Now folks will just have to see what happens on August 23rd when we face off in Las Vegas at the GGL SZN Zero launch,” said T-Pain.
NE-YO responded: “Honestly, I was trying to connect with T-Pain to maybe be part of his team but when he kept blowing me off and then I saw that video of him talking about my lips, I decided the only way to get his attention would be to call him out. Now, we’ll see just how good he really is – or isn’t – when we go head to head.”
World-class Publishers such as Activision Blizzard, Bandai Namco, Capcom, EA, Tetris, and Ubisoft have all agreed to allow GGL to use some of the most popular and challenging games during SZN Zero, attracting a new audience and offering viewers a unique and compelling gaming experience. In addition to YouTube, the Global Gaming League SZN Zero will be available on other major streaming platforms in partnership with Dooya Media Group.
