I suppose the answer would depend on the type of gambling you're engaging in. While there always is (assuming no in-universe cheating is going on by NPCs) an element of luck involved beyond the skill of the player. I could see that "luck" being represented by the physical dice being rolled by the player whereas the human element is the skill/attribute used. I think manipulation is a great choice for games where your actions/bets are dependent on "reading" the other gamblers whereas sleight of height might be more apt in a game where rolling dice in universe (like craps or throwing bones for example) determines the outcome. Gambling could also be based on might if you're betting on yourself in physical activities like arm wrestling or marksmanship for darts.
