Hmm, I've heard that in some countries gambling is illegal so this will be hard for the people there to gamble, even online if they have that law then you're risking your life because you might go to jail. In some casinos they say that some strategies like card counting is prohibited but in some casinos it is not. Ive heard that Ben Affleck, a Hollywood actor is banned in some casinos because of card counting so I think location is one of the factors.
I do really think that the government restriction can stop any gamblers in playing especially if it is online. Here in my country, gambling is illegal, but people are able to find ways in order to play. Government restricts people to play but that's it, just restriction but without monitoring. I know that monitoring every people in a country can be absurd but seriously, how can they know if their restriction is effective.
On the other side, even with the government's restrictions yet players do still manage to play anytime they want only shows how people can be hard-headed, worst, undisciplined. I can't blame them, gambling is fun and it was just labeled illegal, wrong, sin and etc. because of how people badly played it.
