I have seen a couple of times some casinos owner doing some wagers, but I don't think they do it for gambling, they do it more to test the engine. And if they want to gamble big, I don't think they will do it in their own casino because the fact that getting paid with your own money isn't a good business at all.

Most of the casino owners understand they are the house, and as the house, they are gambling 24/7 against the users, so, there is no need to place bets.

It's like going to be against their goal as owners if they go against their own platforms. Yeah, that might be the reason why they gamble on their own and that's just for the sake of testing or exposure that they're the ones who also support themselves.
But to be like addicted gamblers, that's probably out of the book if they do it on their own platforms. Most likely, they'll gamble somewhere else if they really are an addicted gamblers.

Of course, they also gamble. It will be hard for casino owners to run a business that they aren't familiar with but for sure, but they don't gamble that much since they have other priorities to focus on. They can't grow their business and focus on developing it if they will just gamble all the time. They will surely use their time wisely. They can earn even without gambling all the time so it will not be their main priority.

Casino owners can gamble on the free time they have in their busy lives managing the casino. But I don't think they will play gambling for long because there will be a lot of work that they have to complete every day. And as casino owners, they have to make sure that they can benefit and that there is no time to rest just to gamble. Maybe they can stop gambling and choose to oversee their business and think about how their business can grow even more rapidly.

we cannot equate between food or the like with gambling. yes it is true that boredom will surely appear after we keep doing the same thing. but not for gambling.
because, gambling is like a forbidden drug that will not give a bored effect, instead it gives an addictive effect. different from us eating eggs every day and over time we get tired of eating eggs continuously.
another example, a gambler who keeps losing. obviously it's supposed to bore gamblers, but it doesn't. it's precisely the defeat that is addicting.

the conclusion is that gambling carries out betting activities using money which makes our brains always addicted to the feeling of losing money, or the feeling of being greedy when winning.

I think the casino owner is not necessarily he likes to bet or gamble like the average gambler. sometimes casino owners don't like to gamble and just want to make more money without having to waste money on gambling.
however, if there is a casino owner who likes to gamble, it will most likely have a negative impact on the development of his casino. because as I said, gambling is addicting and if a casino owner is addicted to gambling, the money his gambling business generates will surely be spent on gambling elsewhere.

Your illustrations are really very funny and realistic but you really can't compare gambling to the examples you gave because I haven't seen anyone who will boldly say his statisfied with the money he or she has because human quest and desires are unsatisfying so to answer your question, I think yes that betting platform owners gamble but I'm not certain if it's as much as the regular gambler.
I've seen someone who sells local dey gin and it seems that every morning the first thing he does is to take a glass shot of the local gin and at some point when I read this thread I felt the guy is an exception and I guess gambling depends on ones personal desires rather than what they own.

I don't know any specific casino owners so far, and I tend not to be too curious about what they do for their business, but it is very possible to find them gambling just for fun or for marketing purposes.

To be honest, I don't think it's important to think about it because basically the owner of tobacco company is also very likely non-smoker. Vice versa in the gambling industry, casino owners do not gamble for themselves but they ask some of their staff to gamble where the budget used is from the owner. This is marketing related, so the case may be very different.

I'm sure they, as owners of a gambling or sports betting platform, must also make a bet on every game.
However, it will be a little different from most gamblers out there because they definitely have very large money so that every bet will risk more money than the usual gamblers.
In fact, they don't bet on the online gambling platform but directly at the place that is usually provided by the match organizers and bets will be made with their business partners.
This is often done in prestigious matches and I myself have received this kind of information several times.

Farmers who have chickens for eggs especially on a large scale, easily get tired of eating the eggs from their chickens or even eggs in general. Caterers get tired of eating their own pastries, just as people who are exposed to certain produce get tired of them due to over exposure. Do you think this experience is the same for casino owners and owners of sports betting platforms?

Do you think that the owners of casinos and sports betting platform, gamble as much as other people do? If they gamble, do you think they gamble on their platform?

Just as your example, I don't think that they do that much to gamble. They are there for the business and that's through getting profit from their customers which are the typical gamblers.

Their principle is more with the business and not with the actual gambling. They might gamble sometime but they're more focused into their operations instead of gambling through their platform.

I have talked with one back in the day, it was one of the earliest casinos in crypto, and the owner was just too busy to gamble. He was a big big time gambler, he spent hours and hours gambling everyday, and that is why he wanted to own a casino, and after he stopped gambling to build his casino, he had to work so much that, he didn't had time to watch tv, eat outside with friends, go to movies, see a play, nothing. He had to work as much as 20 hours a day sometimes, sometimes a bit less but 15 hours was a "nothing happened today" day for him.

So, if you are an owner like that, then you do not have time to gamble, but if you have time to gamble... well then you are doing something wrong.

Well, I don't think they have anything to lose if they gamble in their own casinos, so yea I think so. Ofc I don't think this applies to every owner, but I reckon most new owners would probably gamble a lot in their own casinos, but later on, would probably never touch it again, or maybe a bit but very rarely cause I think at that point, their assets would be pretty big already and they're either playing golf or doing some other type of hobby. As an owner of a casino business, I reckon they know themselves about the risk of touching it for a long time (especially in their case since they are the owner) so if I were them, I'd stay away after it has settled down.

A very big yes to this....
I have had mentorship and introductional tuitions from great gurus that are already in the system of function... And I was told the PROs and CONs..very importantly. Since I've had experience already in the field, I wanted to know how returns and cash deposits are being made to the maga slots and he showed me.
Secondly, during the discussion, he made a statement about meeting a specific target TBH, say -- weekly target or so... He said that for the tickets to count a good number before the week runs, he needed to also gamble along...at first, that was looking insane to me but he explained how he's got to lose nothing at all if he loses to a bet.

I find this strange and although I understand that it is possible that casino owners can gamble in their own casino, the closest I have experienced is a relative who had a place where there were slot machines and he never gambled on them.

Quote from: acroman08 on February 10, 2023, 02:52:40 PM

I remember reading somewhere the phrase "don't use what you sell"(or something like that), I think this is applicable to casino owners too. as others have said that there are casino owners that do gamble but I am certain that majority of them are business minded and do not actually gamble and if they do they only do it rarely or occasionally. getting too into gambling while having a business is a bad habit and ultimately will be bad for business, I'd like to think a lot o casino owners understand this.

In my case I think that if I were the owner of a casino I might gamble from time to time but it would be pointless to gamble a lot, as it would be like taking money out of my left pocket and putting it in my right.

The answer is maybe. The owners of casinos and sports betting platforms probably won't gamble as much as others because they want to profit. But it is also possible that a casino owner often gambles as a casual player in his own or other casinos. It just depends on the habits of the casino owners and if they are used to gambling, having their own casino can give them freedom when they can gamble. But I guess casino owners only occasionally gamble because they want to profit from their business.

Do you think that the owners of casinos and sports betting platform, gamble as much as other people do? If they gamble, do you think they gamble on their platform?

you can observe the following in your city or neighborhood: see if there is a slot machine in your neighborhood, if you have a machine then go to that machine and play a little and observe for a few hours which people are playing, you will see that the owner of the slot machine does not play on his machine and you will hardly see him playing on other machines and this also happens with casino owners, so why does this happen?

in my opinion this happens because all people when they play want to win, they want to win money and winning money means beating the casino, but when you are the owner of the casino, you will play to win yourself and that has no motivation, it becomes something boring and meaningless, hence the casino owners will not play in the casinos even if it is someone else's casino, they start to look at the casino as a business like all businesses, of course also in the TOS of the casinos it is prohibited that the employees and all the casino's technical team to play in the casino where they work and in other casinos where they don't work

I think, No, in most cases. Casino owners are too busy with their respective businesses to still insert gambling on their own.

Maybe in some cases like in any big events such as world cup events (sports betting) but not that truly addicted or can be considered a regular gambler. I know in any company, there's one who will be assigned as the operation manager but still, these owners are hands-on.

Besides, we are not sure if these casino owners only operate casinos. Maybe they also have other businesses that's why there's no time for leisure activity.

They might be busy but its impossible that they wont really be having some vacant to visit out one of their companies considering if they have multiple then gambling moments or times would be that slim but if this is their sole business then for sure they would be having the time on spending up.No one really knows on how these owners are doing when it comes to activities that they are dealing with.

That's why there's a follow-up statement that I mentioned too that maybe in some cases, these owners might be participating too in big events in sports as that was really hype. But to think these owners are playing slots, roulettes mostly? I really doubt it.

These owners are surely busy managing their companies. And we are not even sure if they are only owning 1 company.

I agree with you though on your last statement that no one really knows what's the other activity of these owners aside from owning a gambling company.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope

Not sure, maybe the owners only seriously bet on sports betting like their customers if they are sports fans, or bets that are not versus the house at all.
If the owner has experience on the gambling platform especially on the technical side, it is sure to simply test their own casino machines once in a while.

I believe every casino owner has been addicted to gambling at one time or another.

Obviously he stopped gambling (to have the money and be able to open the casino) or else he won a lot of money to be able to open his own casino.
What keeps a person in this business is the high profitability and I'm sure they play a lot less than many of their customers, but they still play.

However, it is kind of "strange" that they play in a casino, because either they will know that they will hardly win something or else they will know their own tricks very well, which would discourage them from continuing to play.

Yes, No and Maybe. There's no way we can determined if these casinos owners are really doing gambling.

Owning a casino and sports betting platform is a time consuming task and they have to make sure that everything is working properly.

We don't also have an accurate source we can rely on to know such stuffs so maybe a simple guess is all we can do.

They are in a gambling business they should know the in and out of the gambling business, they will not know these if they are not gamblers themselves, and I don't think they are going to play on their platform, what's the logic they can manipulate the results and even if they win it's not actually winning because it comes from their pocket it's pretty useless.
And like all the others here I don't think they will allow their staff or employees to play because it's unethical if they run into issues they will favor themselves since they are the ones running the casino if I were the owner I will not allow that, and all owners will do the same.

I think some gambling owners gamble but only to a certain extent. Remember that these people are business-minded and they are driven primarily for profit. If they try or at least attempt to gamble, they would put themselves at the situation of risking their profits given the nature of business they run in the process.

Though this may be the case, there are actually some gambling owners who gamble on their platform to check on how their website operates. I also know a few owners who gamble on different websites purely for comparison and to see on how they can improve their current platform.
