Topic: Gambling is a choice. - page 14. (Read 2515 times)

Once you decided to gamble, it is already a surefire loss, it is only up to different factors whether you will win or lose just like luck, and as you'be said that it is also your decision on what to do next, either you will try to gamble again or will just immediately stop. Gambling is your own responsible, not other people, and it is not also right to let other people decide it for you and will end up blaming them if ever you'll lose.

There have been so many cases of this kind of situation before where they tend to be swayed easily only to end up losing big and struggling to get out of that pithole of loss. As they said "gamble responsibly", coz in the end you are the only ones who will eithee benefit or suffer, that is all up to how you handle your gambling habits.

Whatever results we are getting from gambling we need to know that we choose that way and is the outcome of what we have chosen. We don't need to blame people around us for the results we are getting.

 If we don't like the results we are getting, we can better still work on how we make our bets so that we don't end up losing big from what we are doing. Gambling is a choice we need to know and accept any of the results we are seeing. Those we keep making consistent winnings have paid the prize and still paying so we don't need to see it as a shortcut we can take to get the kind of results we are looking for.

Yes, it's true that everything is a choice whether it's playing gambling or becoming a gambling addict, because an addict will stop himself if he chooses to stop gambling and get out of gambling, so there is no way to help treat someone who becomes an addict if it doesn't come from himself, if he chooses to become an addict is a path and a choice that has been chosen.

I think life always has a choice, in any step we have to choose which path is best for ourselves, I once had a friend who used to be an addict without anyone helping him to recover, it turned out he had recovered from his addiction and when I asked him what which made him recover, it turned out that he had made up his mind to stop gambling and avoid any gambling, that was a choice and he had chosen to live a better life

In my opinion it is a choice of negative things from a person, and it all returns to a person's nature whether he is an addict or not, or gambling is just a hobby for the pleasure of his daily activities, sometimes the nature of wanting to know more than what they have not felt when they have a lot of money, so whether the money will be used to gamble or buy drugs or vice versa the money that is owned for the necessities of life, everyone's choices and the nature that is in a person are not too similar, so that's why we can judge someone from when they have a lot of money or not at all..

Definitely you should only gamble, when you want, these type of rogues just trick the common people to fall in their traps and games which is not even fair and take all the money from them. But this can’t be happen online, as people are now a days very smart, and before depositing any amount of site in any casino, then do a complete background check on the reputation and then only they deposit. They also check that whether the games are fair or not, hence in online space the chances of getting scammed like this in the name of gambling is very less.

Bringing out good moral conducts in gambling is a choice and misbehaving in gambling also is a choice, everyone fall in either of the category stated above, but yet it's our decision on where to settle on, we will definitely be responsible for our outcomes received through gambling if they are good or bad base on what we have decided to settle on, but one thing that i see which is very important here is individuality involved, our personalities as well account, our level of thinking and reasoning matters, the kind of orientation we have as well as the place or environment we lived in, that's why i put it that it's not about gambling now, but our personal individuals responsibility and choice while gambling.

Besides, they can be caught if they keep gambling because our country prohibits gambling. And when they do, they're just getting into trouble we don't know about. And while we can use a VPN to visit the casino and gamble there, we must be aware of the risk of being found out by our government. And we'd better not have to take that risk.

And casinos can also identify their members easily to find members from countries where gambling is prohibited. Casinos can also impose penalties on their members by closing their accounts without notification, which is what has happened so far. But that doesn't stop people from gambling at online crypto casinos because they find lots of interesting promotions from these casinos.

Profits from gambling can only be obtained when we can get lucky, but we cannot expect that luck to be with us while playing gambling. Indeed, some people can become rich people, but only a few, while others will lose a lot of money, especially those who do not have good self-control.

We should use gambling for fun and not turn it into a money-making opportunity. And that is why gambling is an option that we don't need to think about seriously.

As long as we can anticipate the risks, I think playing gambling is okay. But it must be remembered that "only" if we can anticipate the risks and control ourselves. If not, it will only be a place to waste money without being able to make money.

If it is a child, gambling is indeed prohibited. But we know that today's children already use sophisticated mobile phones that can make them visit many sites, including gambling. They use the cell phone without their parents knowing so they can freely visit any site. And it can trigger them to gamble if they see gambling advertisements. And when no one knows, they can play gambling secretly, and it is possible to use a lot of money.

There are different ways in bets. Even if the main goal is to get profit. You can bet with the odd 1.01 but make lots of bets or you can spend much time and make just one bet with the odd 2.5. Both times you get the same profit. If you bet lots of bets with small odds you spend time for betting, if you bet once with high odd - you spend time for analyze. Of course it is just for example.
I don`t know what the way is better, but at least the number of ways is more than one.

Saying that gambling is a choice sounds like a BS excuse to me. Doing drugs is also "a choice". Becoming an alcoholic is "a choice" as well.
Ruining your life is a choice. Sometimes the people lose control over their behavior and their choice suddenly becomes an addiction.
Being addicted is not a choice, it's an illness that has to be cured. The life story you are describing seems like a scam to me.
Letting someone else manipulate and scam you is your choice, but that doesn't mean that it's your fault only. The scammer is also guilty of manipulating and scamming innocent people.

It is indeed a grim reality that such fraudulent activities often target those with little to no understanding of the games or mechanics involved. The initial wins serve as a deceptive enticement, a proverbial 'siren call,' drawing unsuspecting individuals into a rigged game. While law enforcement indeed plays a critical role in curbing such activities, the onus falls upon individuals to equip themselves with knowledge. Knowledge is power, after all. By understanding the inherent risks and mechanics of these games, one can more effectively resist the allure of easy wins.

Moreover, fostering a societal dialogue about such schemes, much like we are doing here, can raise public awareness and dissuade potential victims from falling prey. In essence, shared knowledge becomes a collective defense. In the end, prevention remains the best cure, and awareness is the first step towards prevention.

What you said is true, it is still up to us to decide whether we will play gambling or not. That's why the good advice of others is useless if we don't follow it. Because everyone's mindset is different when it comes to gambling.

Just like there are countries where gambling is legalized like Casinos and in others it is illegal, the same for every individual person. But in reality, it's not good for children or minors, we know that. That's why there is other gambling that is made legal because it helps the charity program and at the same time the tax that it gives to the government.

Care to cite your source? Tried looking up with the related keywords but all that came up were arrests that did NOT happen due to sponsors. Yes, gambling is illegal in some countries but I reckon some form of advertisement limited to telling people about the casino's name, and not gambling directly shouldn't be grounds for arrest.

It is indeed a game, a game that directly involves money, which causes a LOT of, well imo, non-existent problems really but for the others, major problems, maybe more on the ethical side of things.

Some countries ban gambling, which is not a big issue, but I read news online that police arrested a YouTuber just because his sponsor on a video is a gambling company. Gambling portrait as a crime in some third-world countries, but I think gambling is only a game and certain people play this game. If you play a game with all the responsibility and you lose, there is nothing a gambling company can do, so I believe it is a choice.

Yeah, very true that casinos aren't an NGO organization, but how can I really not be excited if and when I make some profit from my gambling activities?
The truth is, it does not matter whether the casino is an NGO organization or not, gamblers have the right to always be excited when ever the hit that jackpot, I mean I personally would be over joyed when ever luck finds me worthy of a good gift, reasons being that, what ever money I won from the casino, I probably have lost it on the same casino and another casino, and even if I have not lost such money before, it's highly possible that I might still loss it as long as I keep gambling - so every gambler have the full right to express their happiness every time they experience a great win.

That is a very good way of looking at the game when it is taken Into account how not to constantly have profits , this generates many things, first of all, we should not get excited about always having profits Because the casino is not an NGO Organization , so the players who They think like this when they play and see what happens to them, the opposite, instead of receiving Benefits they lose money , the emotional shock is very strong, this influences the Personality of each one and the way they have to face failures, and Since each brain is a world , it is when you see how it will React.

But we know that not all people would really be that wise nor really be that aware about gambling and on the time that they would really go into a place and able to encounter such stuffs then this is where
people do easily get hook specially on the time that they would really be showing and letting them win on few tries.It is true that in every place there are really that these illegal doings or fraudsters on which they would really be taking some advantage into those who do have zero knowledge. This is why having that common sense would be your best weapon on which you would really be that able to sense
things that somethings off or not really that right. Come to mind that if those given games are really that easy to win up on your first tries then you should really be minding
on hows it possible? it cant really be just that some sort of rigged or making you believe that it is really just that easy.

These sort of street fraudsters can easily be dealt with by the police most of the time, it's illegal to engage these sort of activities - unlicensed gambling - in almost every country around the world. With just a little bit of evidence, maybe a bit of short stealth recording, it should be easy to present this to the police and get them arrested. They really do take advantage of people who are unfamiliar with card tricks and other games. Ironically it shows how addictive gambling can be, because they often allow you to win small amounts in the first one or two goes of the game, the wisest people would leave at this point, but then those sort of people would never be playing the game anyway so it takes care of itself from the conman's perspective.

Gambling does provide benefits, but only at times, so one shouldn't think of it as a way to gain benefits constantly since it is not something that makes everyone rich. Only the luckiest people in the world manage to become rich through gambling and those are a few out of millions that gamble from all around the globe at different casinos online and offline.

So one should only see gambling as an opportunity that might do something good for them but the chances are mainly against them, so they need to make sure that they are not giving away everything they have only for that.

While gambling is a choice, I don't support people defaulting the laws of their country and putting themselves in situations where they can be cheated on. If a users uses a VPN, he should first confirm if it's okay by the casino or gambling site that he's using it on.

We have many accusations when members accounts were closed for asking them to verify their identity after they won big amounts and they found out that the users are accessing the sites illegally through VPN as their country of resident isn't welcome on the casino.

Online Gambling makes it easy to forget that there are laws and regulations that need to be followed so we should be very careful about the decision we take and make sure we know every terms and conditions of the gambling sites or casinos that we play on.

One of the major advantages of online gambling is that a gambler can play completely safe. If his site is secure then he can gamble from the comfort of his home. Which is not possible in any physical casino. Furthermore, gambling is not legal everywhere in the world, so not all places have physical casino company. But in online a person can safely continue his gambling activities if he wants. Many times, if there are restrictions in a country, many people conduct gambling even using VPN. But there is definitely a risk in that case. They also have the power to restrict your account at any time if they wish to trace your account. And all the gambling sites which are based on KYC, where no one will get advantage of gambling without KYC.
