The goal of this research is to identify predictors contributing to the development of gambling problems in an online environment and to propose a model that will determine the degree of riskiness of the player using data about the player's behavior from the game account. Based on the risk level of the player, the operators will set preventive measures limiting the undesirable health, psychological, social, and economic effects of gambling problems.
