I've never visited a casino while traveling. All I do when I travel is relax and watch the beauty of nature. And in a casino I can't relax and enjoy myself. If you go somewhere, take a break from gambling or do something you've wanted to do for a long time.

It depends on what is work for you, and what is relaxation. For example, for people collecting tea leaves from mountain hills and  thus watching the beauty of nature every day from morning till evening, for such people visiting a casino would be a relaxation. And watching the beauty of nature again during their time off, no, that would be definitely not the best time passing for them. But if you work in a casino, or you gamble every day on various online platforms, then I understand,  it's better for you to stay away from those places while on vacation.

Those who work in nature have no time to enjoy it. If I look at nature instead of working, I won't earn anything. You don't have to gamble during your trip. You can visit the casino after working day.

Yes, this is very simple. You will focus on something else to take a temporary break from the work you do regularly. That can make you happy. But if it is something like your daily routine then you will find nothing new and nothing to enjoy. For those who regularly gamble in casinos, there is nothing more attractive than a casino if they are going to travel. But in this case, if there is something new in a casino, then many people will want to visit it especially if he stays at that place for travel.

Yes you are right that mate if you are in casino must be better if you have friends with you because the more the happier with. Also beting with friends are more fun. And that's what my opinion based. But in reality it depend on the situation because we cannot deny the fact that sometimes we need to be alone if we are traveling to other place and enter the casino alone. But if there's a chance that our friends came with us then must be better.
I'm more comfortable going to the casino without friends unless I meet him at the casino, I actually don't like waiting for someone for any activity and only contact him to meet at the casino at certain times, the reason I'm more comfortable alone at the casino is because I don't want to disturb my focus when gambling , I'm not saying inviting friends to the casino is not good but I want nothing else to be associated with when gambling.

On the one hand, it is good to have friends, but that they think similar to one or that they are much more strategic and help you, but if it is for distraction and for things to get out of control, it is not very good, if it is that type of friends, so I think not, because a relaxation can be good, but not when you risk money, I also agree that one should play alone, well concentrated because apart from the fact that things do not happen when they are repetitive, and apart from when things in a casino usually go wrong, let it be your own fault, that way you get angry and not with your friends, when there is money involved things tend to get very delicate.

Most places I visited recently were rural places so no, I don't think I've visited any casinos in my travels this year just yet. But if I have the time and if the place has one, I might just take a look around and not play. I just want to see what it's like and don't care much about experiencing it firsthand. Also, another reason is that it will be out of my budget as I only travel with a few extras, and I don't think I can ever fit whatever I have to spend on the casino on my intended budget.

In that aspect you are absolutely right, for me it is something that must also be measured according to the expected budget, you cannot spend more than agreed, because otherwise many things would look bad, now, if it is the case of a father of family, obviously you have to be much more careful when taking into account that you can enter a casino to have fun, that is something common, but I have seen cases where a head of family goes crazy and spends everyone's money and practically leaves in the street, that apart from the fact that an act of total irresponsibility is very frowned upon and something that I would never support, a person who is the head of the family what can never fail is in his responsibility.

When we talk about gambling some friends take an advantage because if they are luckier than you then they can help you win in every bet you put in. But in my own experience and perspective then its better to play in casino solo or alone it because you can focus in every bet and when we loss then its okay as it was I am the only one who involve in loss and there are no others.

This is one of the problems with gambling. But to be honest - it is the gambler problem, not the casino`s. If the gambler can`t stop - he mustn`t visit the casino while travelling. He can lose all his money and spend a lot of time in casino. So the result can be that such gambler can broke his vacation plan and late on the train/airplane. If he lost all his money - it can become a problem.

It's not that easy to stop a habit especially something which is addictive. But the idea is there, it solely depends on the player whether he would be too hooked up in gambling activity or not.  It is also not losing which is the concern here I guess, but how it affects an individual. Everything which is too much is bad. There's no relationship with travelling and gambling; but having no alternative activity is. I understand OP's perspective a little, if he just enjoy playing then that won't be a problem but if it pushes him to his/her limit in different factors, things should be really changed while there's time. What I mean with diversion is trying to appreciate what are the other things around you exept for the behavior or activity you are trying to limit or avoid.
In my opinion - if there is a problem with the gambling - the best way is to avoid all casinos, both online and offline. It is difficult, you`re right, but it can become a problem not only for gambler but for his family too. And in offline casino gambling much interesting, so the risk to break the vacation due to such a visit - higher. It is better to replace gambling with any other habit which gives positive emotions if it is impossible to control it.

If I'm making plans to play a bet and I'm travelling , since their are gambling shops in all corners I will visit one I can play my game. Their is nothing wrong playing gambling while travelling. What matters is time to play the game. As far as their is time one can play gambling at anytime.
right, there's nothing wrong with you gambling while traveling but you really have to be prepared for it. there was a case in my country of a tourist who was deported because he ran out of money, he said his money was stolen but it was investigated, he ran out of money because he was having fun at a local nightclub and spent a lot of money there. when you gamble then your chances of getting out of control are very large, and your chances of running out of money are even greater, remember you are in another people's city and it is far from where you live.

Hey guys!
Some of us are occupied in i-Gaming industry, some are just players...but apart from leisure&profession there are still old good offline casinos all around the world.
Today Im thinking if visiting an offline casino is out of date or still a good place to visit while travelling?
Do you visit casinos when you travel? How often? Which ones?
Let's remember of old good times Cheesy

Though i-Gaming is more popular than conventional offline casinos, they still possess the importance it was in the past.
I believe & have observed that people feel more comfortable in offline casinos than in online casinos.
Not only for gambling purposes but for fun (i.e., drinking, social gatherings, e.t.c).

Indeed, based on my friends whom I asked before for my study  in relation with gambling addiction, they do prefer playing on realtime casinos than with online platforms. According to one of my friends; it is the 'feeling' and interaction which adds more satisfaction and comfortability. While to others; they are becoming more thrilled. But definitely, online platforms give more bonuses for the players, right? So we cannot really discriminate those who are into it, as long as all of the players are enjoying with moderation ofcourse.

You are right but in our culture when we are in trouble or things are falling apart.
Than we move - migrate and make experience at the new place. That is one the reason I  would suggest to experiment at the new place. It's worth doing.
Maybe it's worth doing, but we have to think that if we move to a new place to get experience in a new place, we also need adjustments or adaptations to feel comfortable living there. And I think some tourists will end up staying where they vacationed for a long time and not returning to their old place of residence. Maybe because they feel at home living there, they decide to move to that vacation spot and work there.
But there are problems when a person changes his country of residence. 
First of all, this may be an unfriendly and wary attitude of local residents towards foreigners who have arrived.  Far from all countries, the local community is tolerant towards foreigners.  I think that one must live at least a few years in such countries in order to at least to the slightest degree merge into the local community.  And we must bear in mind that this is a very difficult and unpleasant period of life for an immigrant.  Not everyone has it easy and simple.  People who decide to emigrate should take this into account in advance. 

As for gambling, of course, you can play your favorite online casinos from anywhere in the world where there is an Internet connection.  And physical casinos in a new country are certainly worth a visit, I think it's very  interesting.  Smiley
But not all countries have them.

I will not deny, land casinos have a different appeal to online casinos.
though, online casinos are more flexible in all respects than land-based casinos. however, that doesn't mean I don't want to visit land-based casinos. i would like to visit Las Vegas, if i have the chance and luck if that is possible.

for the scope of asia, several places become destinations when I visit some of these countries.
especially Malaysia and Singapore are the closest countries to my country. in Malaysia there is Genting Land, the casino destination there is quite impressive with services that are not far inferior to other well-known casinos. for Singapore, there are the most famous casinos. namely, Marina Bay Sands. if the visit has more time, then I will take the time to visit it in the context of fun entertainment. no more.

it's good to bet on small amount rather than losing a big amount but sometime people get  so lucky when travelling that they come back rich.
Travel open the mind and heart of the people - so its a good idea to explore other culture and tradition -
That's if they're lucky to get a win while on vacation. But not so for most people who decide to gamble while on vacation because some of them may lose a lot of money. The real purpose of a vacation is to gain new experiences and be able to get or explore other cultures and traditions. So playing gambling in that place is something that doesn't really need to be done.

Allocating budget for gambling purposes is one of the key thing that you should do if you are planning to visit a gambling establishments during your vacation as casino are much more tempting and hard to control especially during vacation since one of your purpose is to have fun. I haven't visited any known casino outside my country however I've to some local casino and I can say that it's fun and somehow much more addictive than online gambling especially if with your friends.
Yes, that's true because allocating a budget for gambling while on vacation will not reduce the money we will use for vacations except when we lose and decide to use other money. It will be dangerous because there is no guarantee we can win in gambling. Rather than we will be tempted and finding it difficult to control ourselves, we shouldn't visit the local casino because it can be addictive and we may forget our purpose for vacation.

The poker expressions can be an advantage or disadvantage to you on how you will use it and how to know if your enemy is bluffing, It is one of the characteristic of offline poker where we can use our self as a bluff. To my experience, It is much easier to know a bluff on a real offline poker since some players tend to be overconfident of their acting skills and doing it repeatedly. It would be a must if you are a poker player to play on a real offline poker even for once, It is an experience and also you can gauge yourself on what is more comfortable and most fun with you.

And that is why I would love to play poker at a physical casino, to test this theory I have. Seeing that many famous poker players are equally good online and offline, I think that, contrary to popular belief, your face expression doesn't matter much when you play poker. For example, you may be genuinely happy about your hand, but your opponents may think that you are faking your happiness.

When i do go on a certain place which is mostly im on a vacation or family trip which my focus would be entirely be on my family rather than on spending myself into other
activities which isnt on my list.Well, for those people who are financially capable then it wont really be that much of an issue.
Same thoughts. I have my family with me everytime I take a leave at work to have a vacation, it's our special bond to have another experiences and memories going to different places.

So even it happen that there's a casino on the place where we're going, I might just take a look but certainly won't play since I have my family with me and don't have a budget to spend on casino.

If i'm alone and has a spare money then why not? It's an unforgettable experience specially if it's a popular casino.

Most places I visited recently were rural places so no, I don't think I've visited any casinos in my travels this year just yet. But if I have the time and if the place has one, I might just take a look around and not play. I just want to see what it's like and don't care much about experiencing it firsthand. Also, another reason is that it will be out of my budget as I only travel with a few extras, and I don't think I can ever fit whatever I have to spend on the casino on my intended budget.

it is better not to intend to look inside the casino when you are on vacation because you will definitely have a strong desire to play especially if you see there is a player who won big then you will be inspired by that winner.
if indeed your goal is just a vacation then do it and stay focused but if your goal is for entertainment and gambling then prepare more budget so you don't run out of money when gambling there.

Even in the rural, there's a gambling casinos or places but not as do we expect it is like really entertains a lot with different games like slots, drinks and more entertainment but instead just some games like in table top games most likely in playing poker, blackjack and etc like in the card games, mostly I saw them playing just like in a different room but have a good air condition but still have the ventilation that capable of playing tons of players. Sometimes they seek this as physical casino or just a place for fun and entertainment.

For people who do have limited budget like us, then we wont really be tending to go into those places which we know that you would really be needing significant amount of money for you to have a real experience

inside a physical casino and since im a type of person who arent really that interested on playing too much gambling whether online or offline then it wont really be that much of my interest on doing so.

When i do go on a certain place which is mostly im on a vacation or family trip which my focus would be entirely be on my family rather than on spending myself into other
