Every country have different culture and rule.

Unfortunlately , my government really strict about gambling activity so you will see less in my country because there are many past incident that turn into bloody murder because of gambling !
Gambling culture is all same in every part of the world because the definition of gambling does not change however law of doing such a business may differ from state to state. If your government has prohibited this activity in your homeland, count yourself a lucky guy because there is nothing good about this game. It is like a sweet poison, killing the gambler without his awareness.

Very well, i do agree on your point that gambling is like a sweet poison and we don't know about it because we are only feel its sweet taste and inside it is killing ourself. Although we see government not allow gambling legally but instead of it people play it and if we think that if in all over the world governments allow to play gambling and also include it in our culture then we definitely see a huge people will die because of it.

Well the regulations are mostly for the minors and how the gambling sites and casinos pay their taxes. There can't be any regulation about how much anyone can gamble and how much they can spend. People can break their banks and go on debt. And that has been the case for the longest time so i don't think there can or will be something done about it
There are some countries who certainly do not take gambling as something that is reasonable for anyone to do and hence the strict law against gambling which apparently makes it entirely impossible for anyone to be a part of. However, this does not mean that even at that, some people still do not find a way to gamble once in a while and stay out of the government radar.

The culture though is dependent on how people generally within the society perceive gambling. We cannot expect anything beyond that, I mean gambling for only fun and stopping at right time are the things which may not be covered in most of the traditions as they do gamble for their own reasons and it is individual's responsibility to protect themselves.

Admit it or not,gambling is part of the culture of every nation all over the world,even bible mentioned about some gambling activities that happens,just like when Jesus died the soldiers gamble in He's clothing(this is for christian beliefs i respect other religions so i clearing this out)so this means for long time ago this is happening and i think this will never ends,even the catholic church whos consider Gambling as a sin,but accepting donation from Gaming corporation(this is happening in my country i dont know in others)so lets just accept this fact that will never change.

Every country have different culture and rule.

Apparently, as technology keeps changing, different ways of gambling keeps popping up and not people can easily gamble in the corner of their room without being spotted. I know in some places gambling can be considered as a culture since they really do not see anything wrong about it and they can easily have their fun with it, but in most cases and countries, it is considered an irresponsible act rather than a culture.
Yes, even blockchain technology seems to make things even a lot easier for a lot of people when it comes to gambling since they can tend to stay at least a little bit anonymous or completely anonymous as the case may be and then the culture most people are imbibing now with all these is to get rich quick and they believe gambling is a way to achieve that.

Most societies though have always seen gambling as an irresponsible act for lazy people since you will still end up losing, so why do it ? You just need to follow the tradition of your countrymen because when you get a reason to stay away from gambling then you must grab that strongly. When that reason is belonging to our culture then the possibilities to come out/stay out is much better.

Have you ever wonder why even there are a lot of negative things gambling bought, it still doesnt leave us ? Is that so, gambling has been a part of our culture , even you have plenty or not. Rich people often socialize in the form of casino, while the poor are contented on country games with lower bets. I, as a person living on a third world country, witnessed how gambling form our culture. Town celebrations or "fiesta" are not complete without low cost gambling houses called "perya" where you can bet starting from almost $.02 and above. Every corner of the street has some kids playing coin games and even a wake makes its company awake using card games. Weird isnt it? How about in your country?
Yes, so true..here in my country even in small areas you can see lots of people gambling like in the side walks,I also saw fish vendors playing bingo while they are selling even in wakes people here are used to gamble majong and card games. People in my country found gambling as for fun, I already don't find it weird because I grow up in a place where gambling is everywhere.

in my country, although it's strict about gambling, people still playing gambling but with secret and they can play in a secret place without other people knows except the gamblers. but I am not heard any bloody murder in here because I think that the police is trying to hide any illegal things that happen in my country.

It is weird. However, it is not a problem of culture, but with the mentality of most people. You can find a Muslim guy who is a gambler, another Atheist guy who also gamble. It is forbidden in Islamic countries because you are earning money without making efforts. In my opinion, you can be religious and a gambler at the same time. Hypocrisy, I know, but if you are in need of money and you are unemployed, then you can resort to gambling.

The gambling seems indeed it can be said as a culture even around the world, because the gambling in all the country and it’s hard to lost as a culture of traditional a tribe of a nation that can not be lost
But wherever it is a cultural element, it is considered as disrespect and dishonesty. In our cultures, this gambling isn’t considered as part of goodwill rather people start hating those who are gambling. Even here in our country, this is law to sentence those people who are caught at any stage being involved in gambling thing. So don’t get near to it rather keep it at arm’s distance.

Gambling has been a part of every culture even if you are residing from a different country. Different ways and strategy but same goal. Probably it is because people always want to earn money in I think every aspect, so even if it is only a small amount of money earned through gambling, they’d still go for it.
Yes, the urge to have too much wealth and cash is the major motive for gamblers to get into this game. They think that this is the easiest way of making some of it without working hard but they forget that there is nothing in life that you can get without working hard and struggling. The easily earned money is the one that is usually easily lost. So better not promote this culture of gambling rather stop it.
Even many already know such thing, that whatever outcome came minding still exist. Those who truely devoted in their culture, laws and religion will be the only one who will take the rules by heart and the others will just think that rules didn't exist at all. It will always still depend on us if we will be part of the culture that we should at least be.
Culture will never be ignored. Like if you think someone can have potential to change the whole culture of a country, he is on wrong side of picture. Even governments in different countries are continuously trying to end this game but they are totally failed till now.

In some countries, where religions are against gambling, we can find out so many places for gambling even though. So we are the only ones who can control ourselves.

I don't think what country you're in but it seems that you have a good culture there while most of us play on the casino. In such country that is full of work lots of loads everyday and the only way to have some hang out is casino i have no time for some activities after a long weeks of working hard. Gambling culture is different from point A to point B what is its purpose is to have a good time for you to forget some and enjoy that day.
If your main aim is to have fun after a long day work with gambling and that is how you generally perceive it, not a bad idea. Nevertheless, a lot of people do not see it this way. Gambling has brought a lot of negativity to the world than positive if we really want to face the fact as people keep reading the wrong meanings to it, things keep getting worst and then we keep having emotionally damaged addicts as a result of gambling who ends up finding it hard to control the impulse that gambling and greed has brought to them. Culture is a far way to really be putting it.

I will take it as part of classic entertainment and not as a culture eventhough it was started during the classic era*.

Why even there are negative things that gambling can brought, still many are hooked? That is because that it's not all about negative things. On the other hand, some people won and that's make gambling lives until now. If all things rotated in gambling is about losing then gambling industry will not be bloom like the current status today.

Although winning always have some room, it's obvious that gambling must not take seriously especially for an average gambler. It's depend on the gambler itself if they will allow themselves to be eaten in the negative effects of doing gambling.

The problem with gambling is that, people are so inclined into earning profits that they would resort to the easiest way possible though dangerous. Gambling tends to create this illusion wherein people are stuck on this paradigm cycle where they gamble despite winning or losing. Let's take that into detail:

If A gambles and wins, - it is highly unlikely that he/she will stop.
If A gambles and losses, - he/she will try to recover those losses by gambling again.

There exist this conundrum wherein people are stuck on this cycle. Though there are also factors you need to consider, most individuals gamble due to either for entertainment or they are experiencing financial struggle. This leads us to the question of: is gambling part of someone's culture despite its negative effects?
Well I cannot say but it all leads to one thing- it will slowly destroy one's life without the proper discipline and self-control.

Gambling isn't something that we can identify certain people or countries with since it's  an intruder to all countries and cultures . Yet so much people practice it (sometimes on a daily basis ) without even knowing it by just betting on small things and it begins from very small ages .

Gambling could not be a culture of society, 3000 years ago there was gambling, bringing money with the main objective chance of gambling objects showing variety. Today, gambling has only changed shape.
Apparently, as technology keeps changing, different ways of gambling keeps popping up and not people can easily gamble in the corner of their room without being spotted. I know in some places gambling can be considered as a culture since they really do not see anything wrong about it and they can easily have their fun with it, but in most cases and countries, it is considered an irresponsible act rather than a culture.

In my country gambling is regulated and its legal but you need a license and it's not easy to get one however there are many gambling games that are not consider gambling by people but that is exactly what it is, people love to play bingo in my country and they bet money on it and it's not rare to see people spend hours or even the whole day playing bingo and it is even acceptable that kids play it something I do not agree with.

Are you aware that most of the country was regulating gambling? Except on those in the poor country which I bet that gambling will not be feasible. Most of the country needs to regulate it since it involves money and it that government must apply tax for that. In my country here in Asia has a very strict law regarding gambling even if you are playing cards with your friends that involves on cents just for will might cause you to put in jail when law enforcer caught you.

On the other hand, I think most third world country is in gambling for the simply reason that everyone wants to take quick route and make easy money. However, yes, most country has been regulating gambling and some are really successful except for a few that will take the risk to gamble. Asia is known for being in gambling, just go around the casinos around the world and you will find a lot of Asian's sitting on the table, betting big money.

Well the regulations are mostly for the minors and how the gambling sites and casinos pay their taxes. There can't be any regulation about how much anyone can gamble and how much they can spend. People can break their banks and go on debt. And that has been the case for the longest time so i don't think there can or will be something done about it

well, maybe gambling is a culture. in my country, has many games that are similar to gambling games. but, I think, when we grow up, we can see the difference in gambling and not.
Growing up always change a lot of mentality about so many things. Yeah, I have seen children gambling on little things before and even when I was in my basics, I always remember betting on some little games that we play some times while the winner keep having more of whatever you are playing with. One way or the other, gambling somehow finds its way into the sub consciousness of people even in their little age, and some over time allow the effect of it to grow with them.

I been in macau before and i see chinese people realy gambling and even gambling is also a part there culture too.
By seeing some people, we cannot judge the entire country. Moreover people do visit macau only for having some fun hence gambling there is not meaning it is part of their culture. China is a vast country and having different traditional people. All do not need to be same even for gambling.
