EN: gambler
This is someone who lives by the mantra 'one more game.' From tong-its with the kapitbahay to online casinos, a manunugal is always chasing the thrill of the win. They're the ones who say 'bawi na lang next time' after losing their 13th-month pay. Their life is a high-stakes game of 'bahala na si Batman.'
From `man-` (doer prefix) + `sugal` (gamble).
Carries a generally negative connotation, implying addiction or irresponsibility, but can also be used neutrally.
