I mean, if you count the cards in blackjack good enough, maybe.
A chess tournament is technically a gamble in some sense - you pay the entry fee in hopes of winning more money. Sometimes that is a good bet, sometimes not.
It depends on how good you are at the game, and you have to be extremely good. The competition is fierce, and you constantly risk running out of money without a job as a safety net. I spend a year playing chess, and this is what I learned.
