I have another perspective to his reckless actions. No human is perfect, and this maybe his character flaw.
Its his manly pride, poking its head. He does not heed advice from his mom or his wife, unless it comes with proofs. With BRM, it was blindtrust from chidhood, manipulated ofcourse, and now with Avdesh, Its his misplaced trust that he is a Yodha like him and will be fair like him. Fascination with the devil himself and it will prove costly.He has made the judgement call that Avdesh is different, he has to be right.He feels Avdesh is a perfect opponent for him to prove his mettle.His wife has doubts on his capability of winning, little does he realise the reason behind her fear is the opponents unscrupulous tactics. Rana is challenged and he needs to win at any cost.Didnt he say, the sword fight was to win back his wives trust.So far Rana has been winning, he's tasted blood, he is confident he is gonna win the dice game too,he has been pulled deep into the quagmire, there is no getting out till he loses everything, but his principles and his righteousness, his goodness, his inherent qualities, the Indravadhan that G knows and loves and respects,Avdesh can never take that away from Ranaji and can never qualify to compete at the same level as him.Rana might make gross mistakes, but his character would shine even through all that and G will always with her resilience and strength, keep him grounded and emerge a winner, only he needs to not give up..
Just experience in life can do that too.I think during war he was different. More aware of the liars out there. Its probably why he seemed more aware of things in the beginning of the show. In war its easy to distinguish friends from foes. But actually he was too guarded, too black. That is what Gayatri means when she talks about him being angry.He started changing after he realized he was misjudging Gayatri + he became attracted to her pretty fast even when he was judging her. That period confused him allot. It has to do with him being black/white. When he turned 'white' it was easy for BRM to fool him. Goal for Ranaji is to become grey, but that might take a while.
@Bertie,
Its not shallow, I feel majority men dont like to listen to their mothers or wives who act all knowing and ready with the "I was /am right look".They like to make their own calls even at the risk of a loss and would prefer to bounce back, and I'm sure hate the " I told u so" look.At the same time, when they make a mess they do regret and take counsel.When u look at the pride and stately stride of the male lion, u can never even in your wildest thoughts imagine that they sleep mostly and its the lioness which hunts and only when the prey is too heavy, he helps her.That is nature.Man comes with his pride and the female with her motherly instincts.
Oh yes, its not just pride but his inherent goodness and his extreme love for G to prove his capability to her and also the thrill of men games, healthy competition and alcohol.
A heady mix of adventure and thrill and show of superiority over an equal in might.Male ego/ pride is just a small part of the entire gamut.😃

I am not so sure about this one...if he felt he had misjudged G, he should be even more sympathetic to opinions coming from her...And a weird sort of connect had already been established between RNJ and G even prior to his knowing who she was...the reason why one part of him distrusted her while another part felt moved by her...hence the conflict...!But yes, RNJ sees things as black or white...and frankly Avdesh is all black...a gross misjudgment on the part of RNJ...He probably needs to become grey like you said...develop a keen sense of mistrust even...look at everything with a tinge of suspicion...!
