If i'm not mistaken there's no rule/law yet in our country about bitcoin gambling. It is not that widely spread yet so governments aren't making any move about it as of now but two of our local exchange site TOS saying it's likely prohibited. The other one even locking up the account together with their btc once they have found out the btc comes from gambling site.
We have very clear law about gambling here in my county and in our religion, but still people continue playing gambling, may be the reason is that when people become tired of find jobs or do not have enough money to start a business then they are mostly attracted by gambling which they consider as the easiest way of making money, although it is the easiest and shortest way of making money but i think we cannot ignore the fact that it is also the most risky way of making money. In addition to these, with cryptocurrency, gambling has even been easier to do and get away with, even in places where it may be prohibited, so at the end of it all, I really do not see how those who gamble the crypto way can be nabbed anyway, it is just the mentality some people have with gambling like what you have mentioned, is what really baffles me a lot.
