Yes, I would still gamble if it was illegal. The only reason certain types of gambling is illegal is because the government isn't getting a cut of the action. Once it gets it cut - ie, taxes and kickbacks, then that form of gambling becomes legal.

Take for example,  daily fantasy sports in New York state. Last year, the Attorney General declared daily fantasy sports (DFS) was illegal and banned it "for the protection of its citizens." DraftKings and FanDuel were charged with violating the state's anti-gambling laws.

Fast forward to last month. The New York legislature passed a bill that daily fantasy sports is now legal and will be regulated. There will now be a 15 percent tax on DFS companies' gross revenues and an additional 0.5 percent tax, which is capped at $50,000.

I guess the citizens are considered protected as long as the powers that be get their cut.

I think here in my country announce when our new president is come gambling online ban by them but the laws still not announce about this legalization..
But i hope they cant ban also the bitcoin..
I assure you, it will not happen, because here in UAE, gambling is not allowed. but due to the anonymousity and VPN, i can still gamble.
and that is the position in our own country. although gambling is almost illegal in our country but still we are doing gambling. but it is just a very dangerous activity and you will put in jail if you caught while doing gambling.

Only online, if at all.

You know, I try to avoid to personally get in touch with illegal activities, it is riskier and most of the times they are related to real life true criminals.

So the answer is: yes, online

Also there are countries where gambling is forbidden(like casinos, raffles, bingos, etc..), but online gambling is not forbidden

I don't think it should be called illegal. Gambling is not only a game for me it's become my part and parcel of life.I can't pass a single day without it.but,if my country mark it as illegal then may be I would use VPN.I just addicted on it and I can't leave it.

Not all gambling is strictly prohibited here in our country and I think that online gambling is still okay. Whether we use VPN services or not, nothing to be worried about. But for me it is recommended to use VPN as long as we are using bitcoin.

Yep that's the idea. Online gambling is and will always remain anonymous. That is why you can't really keep people from gambling.
And because of that fact, we should invest in gambling sites to make money rather that betting the house with a lesser chance which would only make us lose in the long run.

yeah investing is more safe compared to gambling,

But your answer is kinda far on the question of the thread, by the way no offense on what I said.

well for me If gambling is banned and illegal to my country, then I believed I would still play gambling, we can play online and mask our Geo location and IP addresses and it is so easy to do that, and at the same time, bitcoin didn't have a personal information regarding on you when you have a wallet so it is also anonymous, there is no way that a feds. will still trace you easily.

gambling in my country is illegal , but it's not a big deal at all .
there are a punch of people here who offer sportsbetting services and the government seems not to care at all.
also there is no rules at all when it comes to online gambling.

Hire me for your campaign management.
as for me I will not gamble because I lose 0.15BTC to gambling and I don't have a ways to earn that money, perhaps I will only gamble as a form of entertainment and will quit it once I get bored with it.

A number of people have the same case. they play for fun not for earning money and when they lose money at there they becom restricted from there. But you did not mentioned that is that ban in your country or not. You do play in your country even it is ban? In my country it is ban but in some places some people play it.

Once there is a will, there is surely going to be a way in essence irrespective of ban or not it will still thrive because human nature has a way get things if they are convinced that being said with gambling outlawed participation maybe low and the risk of playing will be high which means the returns will be high in which people who are risk takers will still go for. For risk averse individuals like myself, I might bolt... My 2 cents...

I do not gamble that much so I do not think that it would be hard for me to not gamble anymore, it would be good for me because the I can try and eve more money.
I am sure that gambling would then become huge in the underworld because then there is allot of money to make and criminals are going to take there changes.

Its not about gambling itself its about anything that is illegal in your country or ban you are not supposed to do it it is as simple as that.  Hope the OP of this thread know that much or probably he is trying to think how to use the illegal things    Tongue
