The '''Gambler''' is a high-ranking [[Nobody]] controlled by [[Luxord]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.

==Design==
A Gambler does not seem to have an actual body, and is instead an animated set of clothing. Its upper body is comprised of a pink coat with very thin, dark salmon-colored bell sleeves. It juggles dice and playing cards decorated with Nobody symbols in various ways through these sleeves. Either side of its long neck sports a dark salmon colored spike like those on the Nobody logo, and the Nobody's "head" has the same shape. The Gambler's lower body is a faded pink gown that widens near the base and is decorated by several small, white Nobody logos. Its feet are long, flat, and black. The Nobody's lower and upper bodies are not directly connected in any way, and the two halves will occasionally become separated when the Gambler is being attacked. Its overall body structure is meant to resemble the Nobody sigil. Like all Nobodies, Gamblers have astonishing flexibility.

The Gambler's name refers to a ''Final Fantasy'' job class [[finalfantasy:Gambler (Job)|of the same name]].

==Battle==
===Reaction Commands===
*Stop Dice: When the Gambler begins to throw a die at Sora, he can use the Stop Dice reaction command to begin a game of chance. If the O is pressed, Sora receives valuable items. However, if an X is hit Sora transforms into a [[Die Form|die]].
*Begin Game: Another game of chance that involves hitting O. This time however, the command menu turns into the X's and O's menu and Sora will have to hit O on each bar. The outcome is similar to Stop Dice, except instead of becoming a die Sora transforms into a [[Card Form|card]].

===Strategy===
Have everyone equipped with the Jackpot ability. Sora should also have [[Wishing Lamp]]. Lots of Gamblers appear in [[Port Royal]], especially where [[Captain Barbossa|Barbossa]] is fought The same basic principle (Wishing Lamp does not have to be equipped), can be used in the Underworld Cups, to get a lot of points. This is also a good opportunity to level up summons. Before going into a room with Gamblers, summon Genie. The main reason to summon is if Sora loses a game with a Gambler and he has a summon active, he will never turn into a card or a die.

Gamblers drop the most amount of [[munny]] of any enemy, but not by defeating one. Instead, munny is rewarded by winning one of its games. Winning a game, be it a Stop Dice or Card game, forces the Nobody to drop 100 munny and stuns it. If there are multiple Gamblers present, one game will force ''all'' Gamblers on the ground to drop 100 munny. For example: Sora engages four Gamblers in a battle and one challenges him to a dice or card game. If he win and all four Gamblers happen to be on the ground, they will collectively drop 400 munny. Sora can also get a [[Nobody Guard]] shield or [[Twilight Shard]] by winning. The Jackpot Ability makes them drop 50 additional munny for every Jackpot ability equipped.

===Glitch===
There is a beneficial glitch involving the Gambler Nobodies. While in any of your Drive Forms you happen to lose a chance game against them you will be turn into a die or a card. However once the form ends you'll return back in your Drive form with your Form Gauge back maximum. This is a good way to extend the length of your drive form especially when leveling them up. Whether this works on Luxord or not has not been tested.
