Topic: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? - page 7. (Read 4992 times)

Being over 18 years old is a completely reasonable condition to participate in gambling, because under the age of 18 you do not have enough financial resources or the ability to take responsibility for issues related to money and gambling. finance. Besides, children and adolescents are in the process of psychological and spiritual development, they may be easily influenced and at risk of gambling addiction. This is a psychologically heavy game, so at this age, if you experience psychological problems or negative emotions caused by gambling, it can have a serious impact later on.

As for whether or not you have experience in gambling, it is very difficult to determine. And as far as I know, no casino has any restrictions on this, and there are no specific standards to determine whether a player is experienced or not. A player may understand the gameplay and rules, but they may not have much experience in that game. To be honest, casinos really like inexperienced players, these are the people who are most likely to lose when gambling.

I think at first glance this scenario is too much, and I agree with you that everyone has their own privacy when it comes to things like confidential passwords, no matter if you or they are using someone else's computer or PC especially their immediate family but they may only be able to operate something that is public, after all usually gamblers including me have to go through a search process to find the sites where I gamble, meaning that other people will most likely not know some of the casino sites where I play which will make it difficult for them to reach my casino account.

Although it is still a possible thing to happen but I don't think everyone can be very curious about what other people are doing on their computers, plus everyone has their own secret passwords that no one else knows, and I don't think gamblers can make everything look easy to find especially when their country or neighborhood is anti-gambling.

This is all because teenager whose age cannot yet be called an adult has an attitude that still tends to be unstable and they have no way of controlling themselves in an activity under certain conditions, gambling is quite risky activity and self-control is very important.
Apart from that, they also don't have the personal identity that all adults usually have and the average gambling place requires all customers to enter when they already have personal identity and the same thing happens in online gambling because of KYC.
Moreover, most of the children or teenagers are still studying or going to school and when they gamble it means they are delaying their studies or completing their education.

It just that right now, age will never guarantee person maturity and age will not guarantee person mindset can be better, apart from that regarding KYC, as currently almost all gambling sites use it, there are also some that fake KYC.
Everything has become much easier and what can stop it all is the gambling site itself, such as implementing facial scans for KYC completion by matching the personal identity used, but I sure not all gamblers will agree to this.

I don't know how people use their computers, but there's no way another person will have access to my account on my device.

Do people leave their accounts open, with no passwords, and all the passwords saved in their browsers?

That's crazy to me, but apparently very common. With a password you will eliminate all those issues.

And if they use the computer of their parents and/or elder brothers/sisters then they can easily use the gambling account of their parents and or sisters/brothers. I think gambling can be stopped only if the parents and other relatives whose computer access or access of the phone can be denied then they might not be able to gamble.

Yes, I have heard news that kids these days are doing that. Using their guardians or their parents' identity so that they can gamble their way. There are even those who went too far at using their older friends' accounts or identities too just so they can continue their bad habits. That's the worst-case scenario because the parents won't even have any idea about what his happening while if the kid uses his/her parents' identity, there's a chance the parent might receive a word of it from email or different ways.
It's not like it's easy to stop but still if we are a responsible parent then we should monitor our kids movements or what websites they are visiting, I think it's all written somewhere and it could be traced even though he delete his history.

I think gambling in a country where it's been prohibited is even a crime to start with because if you get caught you are definitely going to be prosecuted so if you happen to be in any of such countries i think it's wey safe to avoid gambling so you don't get to suffer the wrath of the law owing to the fact that you got involved with that which is considered illegal in the country as they have reason for it.

But then if you must gamble in such a country i still advice you get to the age of adulthood which is 18+ as recommend by most gambling sites as you and your friend were actually exposing yourselves to danger too early and i definitely not going to encourage that as eve most casinos both online a d offline discourages that. If you are up to the age of gambling in countries where it's permited then you will definitely not have to hide and gamble because you are up to the age and not hiding to gamble because you are literally doing what's considered legal.

Your friend and you actually had a very good way around gambling even in a country where it wasn't permited but the dangers around it was in the fact if you have any issues with the casinos, they can do whatever they wish and go Scot free as they are not been regulated in your region due to the prohibit and they are aswell not even liable for your what happens because they are not in your region and you may be accessing them illegally.

Its ridiculous that kids can bypass these systems and gamble with someone else's money. KYC is failing us, plain and simple. Parents, we need to be present and involved. Thats the key. Kids arent born understanding the dangers of gambling. They need us. When parents lay out the consequences, the real-world impact, kids get it. They wont develop those addictive habits in the first place. Kids are way smarter than we give them credit for, but they need their parents to show them the way, set the boundaries. Its about teaching them values, not just letting them grow up.

Yes one can do kyc anywhere if NID, Driving licenses, Passport is any document. and one can do all these documents only after 18 years. But kyc is not a great solution for checking 18 years. because many minors are gambling and if there is a need for kyc then they are doing kyc using the documents of their parents or other guardians. there is also a history of many people buying accounts and using them. so parental awareness is needed to keep minor children away from gambling.  And when 18+ then he is ready to take his own decision then he will be responsible for whatever he can do

Overall, it is certain that someone who is less than 18 years old will not be allowed to engage in gambling, none other than because it is an age where a person has not yet entered the phase of maturity in himself which makes it difficult for him to make considerations to get the best decision according to the situation and conditions. But if we talk about gambling then I think someone who has entered the age of over 20 years can still have a childish nature that makes it difficult for them to balance themselves, so I can't say that all people who have passed 18 years are those who are really allowed to engage in gambling, in the end it depends on the person too because there are quite a lot of factors that make them not enter the phase of maturity even though they have exceeded the age of 18 years. On the other hand for other issues about KYC, in my opinion someone who is still under the age of 18 will not experience any problems if for example they are involved in a casino that does not make KYC a condition of involvement, because lately there are also quite a lot of casinos that appear without making KYC a condition for involvement.

The source of funds will not be asked at the time of KYC verification for sure unless it has something to do with their deposits, they don't need to have a bill like a credit card or utility bill but casinos accept any form of ID cards for age verification so one who turned 18 don't need to be afraid about their verification at all.

Parents definitely try to give the best education to the child but there are some parents who cannot give time to the family. Children from those families are more likely to become addicted to gambling. A kid doing whatever he wants in a day. Gambling age is an important issue. KYC plays an important role in determining the age of a customer so that no one can gamble under the age. But that strategy is no longer useful nowadays. Because today's minors know how to deal with KYC issues, they even create accounts with other people's cards and conduct gambling.

If the parents give enough time to a child from the beginning of its growth. A child who helps him understand his good and bad things will never be disobedient. If the child is an adult, parents can also help him understand the issues related to gambling. What is the purpose of gambling? Why one should avoid excessive gambling. etc. When a person knows beforehand he will never become addicted to gambling.

I often see underage children playing online gambling and at one time I asked how they give their complete KYC to the casino if the casino asks for it, the answer I got was that they just say and pay someone to ask for their identity then pay them. Maybe because in my country there are still many unemployed and poor people, children who have enough money can pay anyone for the identity of poor people and complete the child's KYC so they can gamble safely and easily, including making withdrawals using a simple process. fast.

But every child is different, sometimes those aged 18+ don't have any proof of payment because they are too young to pay anything so they only receive money from their parents, it is difficult to fulfill KYC requirements in online casinos so the only way is to pay someone to help them complete it. KYC, for example, people who already have a bill and also their complete identity can very easily fulfill the requirements for completing KYC, but each country is different, in my country aged 18+ they usually don't have any bill, so it is difficult for them to complete KYC themselves.

Older people also have had more time to accumulate wealth though.

But if they keep gambling it all away then probably they won't have any wealth even though they're old...

It also might be that younger people tend to try new things and people getting older stop doing that.

In many countries this is the legal age for someone to be able to gamble and it would be curious to find out the make up of profits that gambling companies are able to generate by user age. I have a feeling that as people grow older, they are less likely to spend money on this activity or may have already been "burned" once and decided to stay away after that. It would be good if some sort of quiz or education test was given before someone could gambling, to make sure they understand the true odds and possibilities for winning, as there might be plenty of younger people bad at math or other concepts who could lose a lot of money - but this is not really practical to implement and enforce jointly worldwide.

If someone chose to fake their identity then they are at the fault here not the platform because they made it clear only people above certain age are allowed to gamble and nowadays KYC is mandated to withdraw any money so that if teen is using their parents ID to bypass that requirement then they are doing the crime which is supposed to be supervised by their parents.

Casinos can implement much strict KYC standards like live verification but it's going to cost them their profits cause it is highly inconvenient for actual gamblers.

I think I have never gambled while I was under the legal age to do so. Though, if you live in a country where gambling and Sportbetting is a widespread activity, then it would not be surprising to be to see many young people engaging with dices and cards before they are supposed to.
At least, I assume you started not as early as others within the gambling community could have started as well, seventeen is almost the same as eighteen, after all.
It is a different situation from what I have managed to witness in far and impoverished populations in my country, where teens literally engage in gambling at broad daylight and do not care if adults are around them to scold them because of such activity or not. It is usual for broken families to have children and teens which venture into those kind of vices, furthering perpetuating poverty and lack of education in a community. In the end is not about the casino of the batting huts, someone who wishes to gamble will do so in the shadows.

Be glad you did not end up getting chronically addicted to those games.

In a situation where gambling is prohibited in a country, the best thing is to avoid gambling in public where people will notice that you are gambling. This is what I do then I was 17yrs, I and my friends started gambling early, so we always gamble in secrets with poker and dice. We gamble in a way that someone who is a neutral person holds the funds that we use to bet, and after the bet is over. The person acting as an escrow will be rewarded with a little amount from the winner.

Do you mean gambling is totally banned in the country you are from? Even if you are off-age, you won't still be allowed to gamble in any of the online casinos. If yes, does that mean you guys don't have a single casino or gambling shop in the entire country? 
 
As long as you have the money to gamble with and are up to the required age (18), you are free to gamble as long as you don't steal the money and you don't gamble in an unlicensed place like the side WHOT game. Gambling is usually carried out by groups of violent people most of the time.

Experience does really matter and speaking about legality and other correlated issues or conditions then it would really be just that depending on this one because each country would be having their different approach
towards gambling. When it comes to legal age then it would really be playing 18-21 years old. Doesnt matter what age but still stopping someone to play is something that cant be sure because in todays
tech and interenet we do have on which accessing out these platforms wont really be that much of an issue or something that a problem. This is why even if these bans would really be applied then these individuals would really be that tending to deal or make engagement without being caught and this is something that cant be stopped or something inevitable.

This is why we are really that still seeing that there are individuals who do get still addicted despite of the ban and prohibition but still there were people who do become that addicted
to gambling because they dont being caught.
