Well you can show them how much money they are losing. Or you can threaten to break up/get a divorce.

its hard, but you have to tell them they can't be part of your life until they stop gambling so much. That is the only way they will take you seriously.

they will have to see it themselves.

if its a friend then trick him into gambling his house to you, and when you win it be totally serious about keeping it, then come clean and tell him that one day it wont be a friend he loses it too.

if that dont give him a kick up the back side then nothing will untill he does it himself.

Force them to keep record of wins and losses, when they add them all together, they will probibly stop themselves.

Its also beneficial if they do this to make tax deductions claiming they are a professional gambler
