I think gambling is not a culture, gambling continues to survive with its existence because there are still many people who are interested to gamble. Therefore, people become accustomed to gambling. So the gamble for me is not culture, because gambling is forbidden.

Gambling is not forbidden by the law since a lot of casinos are still exist, its only forbidden in the law of God.
Culture is social behavior found in human society and gambling is one of them. Gambling is already a culture in many places, they than this thing even in an ordinary day, anywhere in their places. This might have a bad effect but people still doing this, at any ages specially here in my place.

Most of us tend to choose to play a game where we are being challenged and our money at stake. Because it is a part of human nature, it is expected that gambling exist in most of the cultures in different country.

Here gambling is forbidden, so I rarely see gambling activity. the gambling I often see is gambling between friends, betting when there are football matches. Simply gamble like that because it can still be played in secret. If you're caught gambling, you can get caught by the police and go to jail, so here more gamblers quietly.

I have never thought as gambling as a culture before you mention it.
But the way you portray it, I guess you can view it as such since there are two different things going on:
One I know about with the elite going into casinos to do it but not the other where you say there are kids in the streets betting with coins.
There is a film called Mollys game which shows how the hollywood celebrities used a safe house to bet illegally.
Quite a fascinating film about the underground gambling world. Grin

It is considered taboo in every country that strictly prohibits gambling, can make a person has a greedy nature and gambling has unfavorable social consequences for a person. It has become a habit of a person and it is difficult to stop and even hereditary every year, any hard restrictions do not break their gambling spirits.

Then you gave approval to run the bet365 and flashscore site and all. I am sure you guys does not need that they are accepting the gambling or not. Most of the gambling runs with out any problem. If you are having enough money to fly Las Vegas just reach there enjoy the gambling experience bro.

If you are very craze on gambling, finally you will loose all the money to cheaper like loosing all the fund completely from your pocket. I always the gamblers to go with the betting alone. Atleast there you can read the player's previous experience and bet on them according to the odds movement.

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, idk why even though there are many bad examples caused by gambling but it seems people, gamblers in this case, do not care about it. I think there are many factors that cause the gambling to be immortal and the most prominent one is the offer to earn money in a short time that gambling gives. As long as life issues(financial problem) still exist, gambling seems to be always there too.

Well the term 'gambling is illegal' is just a term which can be manipulated anytime depending on the person and the situation if the person is rich and he wants to gamble even though it's illegal he will be allowed , gambling is involved in every level of this society

First of all people play gambling because of the trial and error factor, which unwittingly becomes a hobby inside. The hobby turned into a necessity, meaning gambling has become addicted.

This is a dilemma in society between the pros and cons. Gambling is not good and very damaging to the personality, but on the other hand, it is recognized that if there is no gambling then an event will not be crowded

I don't know are you aware of it but your sentence "Rich people often socialize in the form of casino, while the poor are contented on country games with lower bets." explains everything in gambling. It's actually very simple, I will try to elaborate it, rich people gamble for fun and they enjoy in gambling that's why they win more often, poor people are targeting big wins with small bets ans usually get out from casino disappointed. Gambling by many is marked as something evil because of this people who go to casino and lose last money they have, they borrow money and they lose that in wish to make some huge money with gambling, that just leads in bigger problems.
I saw something on discovery channel about first American lottery. They had some debt and they made lottery and earned a lot of money, some guy have a collection of lottery tickets, and he explained how lottery recovered American fallen economic on that time. Now you figure out why there are so many casinos everywhere, probably because they earn a lot of money for some people in power.

I'd say there is a gambling culture in every country, some countries like to bet on soccer and some for basketball. And other countries like the Philippines, cock fighting is a big thing. It changes drastically with every culture and it depends on history. There are even games that are so weird to us that we don't even know they exist. Just by searching the internet about weird gambling games you'll see that there are so many kinds of gambling games aside from the casinos we all know and love.

Gambling is everywhere it can also be consider as culture but you must not forget about the negative impact of that. Culture is something like we live ever since and gambling is one of that thing. For me this is kind of bad habit because many people are now broke because of this game that can make you more greedy.

If you think that gambling is bad then you shouldn't even play for fun and stop it. Gambling games are designed just give us entertainment but many people use it wrongly for making a quick money. Finally, they will end up losing more money instead of making money from gambling. If you can't control your greediness then gambling is not for hence better avoid gambling.

Gambling is part of the culture since then and the same thing with others to each countries. Rich people and not actual rich people but they do have enough money to gamble are socializing through that way. While the rest are gambling for the sake of money and profit.

I think the word "perya" is very familiar with me here our country.

It's like a carnival with games that you can bet.

I think the word "perya" is very familiar with me here our country. Yes, you can bet at a low price using our fiat coins. They have may feature game at a "perya" playing cards, rolling a ball to the numbers, playing dice wood with colors and the most games that I like to gamble is tossing coins to bet a big amount of fiat. But all of these games are base on luck game.

Of course who will be not familiar with the word "perya" as this is common in when there is a "fiesta" in the Philippines. But our culture of gambling really came from different influencers or shall I say colonizers. The word perya came from the Spanish word "feria". Anyways, as I have said, its already a tradition an part of our culture.

We gradually graduated from "perya" to "casino's, and from the usual card games around the corner like "pusoy" or "tong-its" to "poker". Well in my case, that's how I evolved and up to now I'm still into gambling but in different forms now. lol.

I feel that there is gambling culture in every country of the world because gambling play is regular in every country of the world, but in some countries there are fewer countries but gambling is played in every country as I have seen in my country that my country men have little children with little money. This is fro after the game started, it gradually became a kind of addiction, so that they kept playing in different clubs and continued to play this gambling, if they were forbidden from their families to stop playing this gambling, they would have their family Neither did they continue to play gambling ,

So I want to say that culture will bring a nation and the people of the country to the top of the development, but if the culture destroys the country and the country's youth, I do not think that culture can be in any country,

this is a culture, when the country legalizes gambling there, the country will give birth to many gamblers, and for that it will be very profitable to build a gambling company in your country very much different from my country, the prohibition for gambling is very tight, and many gambling sites which is blocked from my country server, but still many gamblers in my country using various ways to access the gambling

So i think that gambling is everywhere. It is played in almost all parts of the world. Even those people who have no knowledge and live far behind times play this game. Actually, it is as old as the human race itself. The reason can be money. No one in this world is unaware of money and gambling is one way for many people to make money. Those people who find it difficult to do work go for such evil. Some also find fun and relief in it too.

I wasn't aware there was something like a gambling culture but now that it's been pointed out I agree yes that's true. Well in my country we love going to casino on every occasion, card games are popular for a friends socialising. You can say the well to do people love spending time in casino, as they live to compete with each other as to who can outbid oneself. Then there're those who can't go to casino they prefer playing poker at home in close circles. I feel this culture been in existence since ages.
