harsh punishments for gambling are usually because it poses a conflict of interest rather than anything to do with act itself. for instance, evander kane spending all his money at casinos is entirely his decision, but if the accusations ended up being true that he was betting on NHL games, especially ones where he would be playing so he could influence the outcome, would warrant punishment.
with pinto it doesn't sound like this is the case so we'll have to wait and see if any specifics are brought to light.
