Yes. You should always keep in mind that the interpretation of EU law may have some "peculiar twists" in a particular country, i.e. interpreted to your disadvantage. Deriving income from gambling may be a problem in some countries, I don't know, and your experience here in the UK may not have been the worst one. You know that nationals of the A2 countries still have restrictions regarding taking up work. Who knows if not some member state would want to see you as a "worker". And not to offend, but you may simply face opposition because you are from an A2 country. Finally, moving frequently between countries may also be seen as a form of tax evasion.
That's, of course, a lot of speculation and possibly totally unfounded but maybe something to think about.

My point here was merely to make at least sure that you have proof that formally documents that you are within your rights. Whether your plan would work out long term or not I can't tell. In any case, make sure you understand EU law and if possible also the national implementations. Also, try to find internet discussion boards to get more insight. The Austrian one above may be a good start.
