Gambling ads on tv are not regulated, most especially, if you are subscribed to a cable tv, or internet TV like YouTube and others, there is a high chance that such ads, or even something worst, might come up from time to time.
The only solution to this I think is to get the children their own TV, where they can comfortably watch cartoons and other children programs in their room, by this way, the children will begin to see less gambling advertisement ads on TV when their parent are watching a sports program.

If children have access to TV and the internet without limitation, they'll likely come across these gambling advertisements. Nowadays, with plenty of sources of entertainment online, it's too risky for our children to give them full freedom. It's still up to us how to discipline them and provide only what is necessary at their young age. We want our kids to have the same interests as us, if we love sports, we might also want them to enjoy sports. However, gambling is just quite different. This thing is what we call for adults only or mature content, similar to porn shows, with a warning: not for kids.
The world today is totally uncontrollable because the internet and the TV makes it so easy for children to access these things online and moreover advertising of betting or gambling sites are done on a more wider scale now and even the internet like social media are filled with these kinds of advert too but if the parents of a child keeps a close eye on the child then I think it's avoided and moreover there is always parental guidance rating on some specific TV shows and even the cartoon themselves.

I don't care either way as long as they aren't hurting anyone I can't see why anyone would want to ban gambling ads, it's a legal thing to do.  It's like banning beer commercials.  They are all over the place, same thing.  If you are worried about kids seeing something they shouldn't take the medium away from them or even better teach them yourself about what is being advertised.

As a parent, it's hour responsibility to know what's good for your kid and what will negatively affect them, it's better as a parent to know the parental guide on your TV. If you notice there are some channels that has +18 content, it's better you block them or simply used a pin code to locked these channels so that when you are not around and they want to open these channels, it will not show or it will request for the pin you used and since they know them, it will be difficult for them to access.

You can also just subscribed for package that has children views like the carton and other baby things that doesn'take children learn adult lifestyle, it will help them not just in their life but also help them focus on school because they you can easily block everything so they can focus on what's important in that particular time. As a parent of 21st century, you need to be smart ahead of these kids because they will do what you don't expect from them.

While watching TV with my kid, I've watched various advertisements of gambling nature (let's say for example, Rummy123, RummyCircle, A23 Rummy, etc.)
These are all specifically Indian ads, but I'm sure you may have seen various gambling advertisements, some banners at boundaries when cricket is ongoing, even in any other sport. How would a kid ignore those things, they might just come and ask you about what is it. Till when can we lie to them? Don't you think that the frequency of such ads must be less in order to let the kids not get trapped into gambling and don't do it at such a small age?

It really depends on what country you're in and what you're using to stream TV programs these days. Many countries have banned gambling adverts or impose heavy restrictions on them. If you watch Premier League football or those of other leagues, you'll often see sponsorships by major gambling sites these days - all around the pitch and on the shirts of players even. I don't want much TV and find it hard to recall if it's currently allowed in my country. Each country has it's own peculiarities when it comes to advertising though, one thing that shocked me was when visiting America and seeing the hardcore drug advertising taking place, basically telling the public to tell their doctor what to prescribe for them, it was mental.

I can say that it is fortunate for Islamic societies that their laws prohibit advertising related to gambling, because Islamic law prohibits gambling, and therefore all channels directed to countries with a Muslim majority do not support advertising gambling companies or even dealing with them. You will not find, for example, any Arabic-speaking TV channel whose content supports gambling activities. Therefore, children do not learn about gambling until they are mature. The first cases of exposure to these advertisements are while watching major league matches, where stadiums display advertisements for sports betting platforms.

Even YouTube directed to these communities does not show them advertisements for gambling platforms, and therefore the rate of exposure to this type of advertisements at an early age is very low. It is possible to introduce legislation to limit the display of these advertisements, especially private television channels that find gambling advertisers their preferred profit, given that Internet sites cannot be controlled.

Yes of course, I've been in such a situation and trust me, these tiny legs are as curious as ever to know more about it.
Myself dismisses them with a statement, "Its not for children" and I show them other things to channel their energy into. I make sure never to ignore them so they don't start digging  out those information themselves. I make sure to attend to the questions, and deceive their mindset not to focus on it for now. I also make sure they never see me gambling in order to keep things plain and their minds unbiased.
Various gambling sites are always advertised on television and social media. By seeing these attractive advertisements, the general public will feel attracted to gambling and attracting the general public is one of the main tasks of those gambling and casino sites.
Seeing these advertisements published on television and social media, a kind of curiosity is created among the young generation, including young boys and girls, and at some stage, these young generations involve themselves in the severe addiction of gambling. So I don't see any positive effects except the negative side of advertisements published on television and social media.

I think I haven't seen a gambling game ad yet when watching a TV but when some show ends, one of their sponsors can be a casino. On some sports, there might be banners now of a gambling company that are shown.

I still think exposures like these won't get the attention of our child so this is not alarming at all but on your case, limiting those kind of ads may not be enough. What is truly needed there is to not accept such ads but the problem is if the network will agree since they can also earn money on it. Sometimes a company won't care about the sake of other people but what important for them is only their own selves. All you can do for now is to blacklist that channel. I am sure modern TV's has this option now.

It depends on the country.I have never seen any betting or gambling ads in the country where I live now as gambling is banned and only one big casino is allowed in the center of the city,no one else is allowed to open up such a business.In countries like UK where in every 50 meters you can find a lotto shop of course you will see tons of such ads in Sky sports for example Betfair,Bet365,some new platforms which I forgot the name but the point is that you will see tons of them.I don't know which country from the two has the right politic but I would go with the first one removing such ads from the television otherwise it can have a huge impact with the young generation of that country,just my opinion though.

I agree with you, in my opinion this also depends on whether the country legalizes gambling or makes gambling illegal, but in my country gambling is an activity that is prohibited, therefore I never see gambling advertisements on TV, except on social media. for now where the internet and social media are quite important things in everyday life, I'm sure in my country many people know or see gambling advertisements on the internet or social media, I'm sure when a group of young people are having fun hanging out and if When asked if they know about slot gambling, for example, there are definitely those who know about gambling because they saw it or found out about it via the internet and social media.

but in my opinion, if there are gambling advertisements on TV, it could have a bad impact, such as children. Even though today's children are more likely to like playing gadgets than watching TV, there are still children who like watching TV, and I think if they see gambling advertisements it's certainly not a good thing, therefore I don't have a problem with the absence of gambling advertisements on TV, because of its advertisements that appear on many social media, it has made many young people in my area know about it, whether it's because of word of mouth or because they know about it individually.

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
In my country, gambling advertising is allowed, but lately I hardly see it, probably the rules on TV have been tightened. I'm not against this, because there are still a lot of people watching TV, despite the development and popularity of the Internet. It’s just that on the Internet I see advertisements on various sites much more often. But I would like to say that I watch the TV channels of the neighboring country and it is there that bookmaker platforms are advertised much more often, even during the very broadcast on Sunday late. On the one hand, I’m not against it, but sometimes it really bothers me because I watch the show every Sunday, and I probably already know this advertisement by heart, sometimes it really infuriates me.
Where I live gambling ads are allowed, however while you can catch a gambling ad here and there while watching a random TV show, most of the time the publicity of casinos is concentrated around sport events, so if you like a sport in particular you better prepare yourself to be bombarded by those ads as they are the majority of the ads transmitted during a game, not that it bothers me, but I think the number of ads is completely over the top.

The policy of reducing gambling advertising in the media, especially TV, is the authority of each country. Luckily in my country it is prohibited to advertise gambling in the media.
In fact, it can be assumed to be like alcohol, in developed countries alcohol is legalized. However, we see that the number of people who like alcohol is not as many as we thought even though the country legalizes it.
Here the role of parents must be maximal in limiting what children can and cannot watch. So the biggest responsibility is on you as a parent. Rather than encouraging the government, because the government might see gambling advertising as state income.

Comparing gambling to alcohol is an interesting.  Legalizing drinking doesn't automatically make everyone into drinkers.  Similarly, banning gambling ads won't completely stop gambling problems.  Parental responsibility is definitely important, like you mentioned.  Kids absorb everything around them like sponges and  filtering inappropriate content is also important.  imagine kids constantly seeing gambling ads all over like candy commercials.  That would be extremely tough to deal with!

In situations like these, the government needs to step in.  They can limit exposure to these ads and encourage responsible gambling habits, like seatbelts in cars.

These interventions aren't perfect, but do help

I've seen a few gambling ads on TV. But as far as I understand Sopt is a different kind of casino. However these casinos are not regulated in my country. And if anyone wants to get involved with this scam then he has to visit the casino websites. But I can say one thing, these are usually addictive slowly. So considering this subject, it can be said that before becoming addicted to gambling, these things should be avoided.

Unfortunately, this is something we just have to learn to live with, there is no two ways about it.
All the time I am watching a football match and my kids are sitting right next to me, the match does play for more than 20 minutes without a gambling site ad coming up,  what do I do? Send my kids out?, of course not, I guess this is one reason why before such type of program would start, they will tell us that children under the age of 18 and below are not allowed to watch such program without the supervision of their parents.

Gambling promotions is in everywhere like on television, radios and social media which pretty sure nowadays that it will become worst in the near future. Anyways gambling is base in our luck so it's up to us if we gonna gamble every now and then or not. But for me it's a god habits once we gamble once in a while but not in everyday. Yes we can win a good amount in gambling if we have our luck in our side but if don't have the we won't success. And we always failed.
All companies try their best to market themselves and gambling sites also do their best to market themselves. In that case television is a good medium so here they can campaign it is a common thing. Gambling advertisement is often seen on TV, I have seen it many times. Winning at gambling is really a matter of luck as it never guarantees winning. Only those who are lucky can take advantage of the gamble while others only suffer
Good, casinos company is making the best out of them so they want to advertise their business/company for more customers to come and test what they have for them. Advertisement is brings more customers, so even the casinos/companies that's advertising their website won't think about what they are losing because the advertisement will definitely bring more people to their business. According to the OPs question, I have seen a lot of advertisement concerning many betting companies both in the internet and online, but I haven't seen any online. Yes it's true that winning bets are based on luck.

In countries where gambling is not legal, usually, casinos or gambling business developers usually act as sponsors in sports tournaments. it's like boxing or football shown on TV. This kind of strategy is also good for casino developers to use in their marketing.
There are many marketing methods that casino developers can use. but I don't know whether TV advertising is still popular and effective. I estimate the effectiveness of current advertising on social media platforms. Now more people live with their social media during their downtime than with their TV.

I only see a few advertisements on TV for a gambling site; most of them are already big because they can afford the cost of running advertisements. Many probably use social media or hire vloggers to promote their gambling sites. Also, TV stations probably have high requirements regarding the legitimacy of the gambling site they would promote, as it will affect their reputation. If a gambling site only earns a Curacao license, I'm not sure if they'll consider it since,  based on what I read, most small gambling sites can easily get a Curacao license.

Quote
Curaçao licenses have been associated with being a quick and easy fix to obtain due to its lacking in regulations and monitoring compared to other jurisdictions.
