Just like this place, nothing fancy, no sexy girls, but they're going there to make a bet and watch the match. Gambler is only want to gambling regardless how bad the place is, even though fancy design and sexy girls do attract people to come, but they're mostly not loyal gamblers and only want to hanging around in there.
People would always look for ways to gamble if they really wanted. We can’t deny that these men would have far enjoyed their experiences with gambling if it were on a live casino with drinks and women. But this works too so it’s what they do.

Even if you may keep losing, the promise of winning outweighs all the losses they have to endure.
