Sometimes people are always addicted to playing gambling online and this has made them loss alot of funds, due to always topping up theire casino account with there debit card when they loose. and this usually makes them exhaust all there funds.

While those people playing offline in casino halls play with only the little money they have at hand, and that will reduce the risk of over spending. So now my question is this

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?

I think both of these have their own risks, and I myself am not sure that I can distinguish which one is safer, both of them bind dangerous impacts, but I think it depends on the person who is doing the gambling, if they tend to have a sense of security in a large environment or in a crowd of people, I think they choose offline casinos or physical casinos, but maybe for people who don't like crowds they tend to choose online gambling because they can do it only by themselves wherever they want, and maybe they feel safe with loneliness. but for the safety of gambling, I choose physical casinos anyway, because physical casinos are clearly visible to our own eyes, while online casinos are not fully visible, even I have been caught by online casinos. But for the safety of gambling, I choose physical casinos anyway, because physical casinos are clearly visible to our own eyes, while online casinos are not fully visible, even I have been tricked by online casinos. so I think online casinos are quite scary too if we can't gamble carefully in choosing online casinos.
For the impact, in my opinion, both are the same, have a dangerous impact if someone does excessive gambling which will make them addicted to gambling.
My experience is that comfort and safety determine whether to play online or offline casinos. For their physicality, I prefer physical casinos. Seeing your surroundings and people is comforting. I realize some find comfort in online gambling's solitude.

Remember that both platforms have drawbacks, especially in responsible gambling. Mindfulness and control are essential online and offline. In all situation, I remind myself to set and follow limitations. The trick is to mix gambling's excitement with healthy practices.

Its about personal responsibility, right? Make smart choices and know your boundaries in a busy casino or alone with a screen. Thats the safest bet on any platform.

In my opinion, the advantages of physical casinos are there, apart from being able to gamble, they can directly see the situation around them because in physical casinos they can see lots of people gambling and maybe on the other hand, they can socialize, such as chatting with strangers to discuss gambling. physical casinos, maybe with that they can make new friends which makes them have other goals besides gambling, they can aim to just look for fun.

There are lots of people who do online gambling that I know around me. There are also lots of people like this and they tend not to really care about the security of online casinos, with those who gamble there or on new platforms they tend to only look at the minimum deposit and minimum withdrawal, they don't look at other things that might also be more important. what you are doing is good, gambling by combining excitement because that way it is possible that the gambling that is done will not be too excessive, because we know that many people today are gambling excessively, especially with online slot casinos currently which in my opinion are played the most By people.

So, it's never about the medium being used. You can always limit the amount you are going to spend on your gambling activities if you aren't addicted to gambling and realize your limits that you need to follow. However, if it's the other way around, no medium can reduce the risk of you losing everything.
Gambling addiction doesn't know about online and offline casinos, it all comes back to you, that's why it's important to limit your budget and time when gambling so that you stay well controlled. Gambling in online and offline casinos, as long as there are no budget and time limits, it will definitely be difficult to control. yourself well, so it's easy to get addicted to gambling and make you forget yourself by playing beyond your limits.

The best way to reduce risk and stay safe when gambling is to manage your budget and time properly because without being able to manage and limit both of these you will definitely become addicted to gambling, many gamblers play without knowing the time so they spend more money on gambling. be it in online or offline casinos. the point is to return to yourself.

That's right, because the appearance is very attractive and easy, so many people play this slot game, people will get carried away and think it will be easy to win, even though in reality there are many people who are less fortunate there and many experience big losses and lose a lot. I have heard stories that many gamblers experience downturns in their lives, such as running out of finances and being in debt here and there because of the impact of slot gambling, and I have also heard that it is rare for people to be lucky in carrying out their slot activities.
How sad it would be if someone close to us experienced something bad as a result of gambling, right?
That is why when playing slots, we have to be more careful and can control ourselves in using money and the length of time playing slots. Otherwise, we will only get deeper and deeper and will not be able to stop unless our money is gone. Many people lose a lot of money and get into debt because they lose control of themselves when playing slots. Slot games that give gamblers the opportunity to win large multipliers have proven successful in attracting gamblers to keep coming back to their slot games. They don't remember that they have previously experienced so many defeats. Even though some people are lucky enough to get a big multiplier, it doesn't guarantee they can get it again the next day because it depends on their luck in playing slots. So instead of losing a lot of money playing slots, it's better for us to play enough slots and only use the money we can afford.

The amount of money one can spend in gambling doesn't depend on the medium they are using to gamble, but it depends on one's self-control and how responsible they are with their gambling activities. A person gambling online might as well spend a small amount if they are well-disciplined, and a person gambling in a physical or offline casino might spend everything they have if they are not a responsible gambler and it is possible as you can easily get cash from either within the casino or from the nearest cash station or ATM.

So, it's never about the medium being used. You can always limit the amount you are going to spend on your gambling activities if you aren't addicted to gambling and realize your limits that you need to follow. However, if it's the other way around, no medium can reduce the risk of you losing everything.

This is a very critical discussion that do not have a straight answer and difficult to know which one is safer because each has its level of risk. Many people may think that offline casinos are safer because they have a physical office address that make it difficult for the owners to scam people. But there have been multiple cases of the physical agents disappearing with the winnings of the gamblers. In addition, the issue of privacy is a major concern for offline casino and this pose a great risk to both the users and the casino.

Online casino on the other hand gives some form of privacy and also safer and easy to verify the reputation. It just require checking online for reviews and it won't be hard to verify the reputation of the casino. Despite this, it is easy for the casino to disappear with users funds when the casino is online than when it is offline. Therefore, both have their associated risk.

It’s based on the website or the person who conducts the gambling in the offline mode.Some people will conduct the gambling in offline mode with the intention to some the greedy people.The scam people will make their team to play along with your game in the gambling.They also use the same strategy,because after they allow to make money mostly the small money.Then you get the good view towards the game,the gambler will increase the bet at this time.So the new algorithm will make you to loss the complete game deposit amount.

Yeah.  

If we do not gamble at all that means that we have nothing to lose. And the justification of most of us here is that, how we are going to win if we are not going to bet and gamble, right?

Anyway, it is all about the life choices that we will do and regardless of being online and offline, you are the ones taking actions and any result of it must be accepted.

The gambler may have a chance to make the money from the gambling site,but he need to learn the game which like.Because if he spend some time to learn the game.The profit from the game was the guarantee one.But checking the gambling site ownership must be important to avoid of scamming.

Answer: neither.

Physical casinos are a lot more dangerous to your budget than you think. ATMs are widely accessible, and there are people out there who offer to buy your gadgets or even your car if you get desperate to get some funds. In online casinos, only your debit card is at stake, as most of the gambling platforms out there have already stopped accepting credit cards for deposits. At the end of the day, it is your capacity to avoid the temptation of going over your budget. The sensation of needing to get back your loss is always strong no matter which platform you play on.

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?
Online or offline, it is still both gambling. The risk reduction depends on you and how you will deal with it. IMO, the thing here as a gambler and either of the choice you do, what important is the amount you gamble

That is one factor in reducing the risk. Also, if you will gamble then always set a limit and games you play. Typically, luck based games are uncontrollable and hard to win against unlike games like sportbetting where you can use analysis and strategies.
The only safe thing is that you wont really be taking any gambling at all whether online or offline on which there's no way that you could lose money but since you are dealing with those
things then you are really that prone to losing money and if you are someone who dont really like losing money then you should really be that avoiding at all cost.
There's no such thing about being safe if we do speak about losing but if you are really just that gamble for fun then it would really be just that normal or something that
that a casual thing that you would be experiencing on the time that you do deal with gambling. So its a matter of choice whether you would really be getting some involvement or not.
Yeah. 

If we do not gamble at all that means that we have nothing to lose. And the justification of most of us here is that, how we are going to win if we are not going to bet and gamble, right?

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅
There isn't any big difference in that... Why? Nothing would barrier an addict to not refund his wallets whenever he's outta funds.. a person that has gotten into addiction would operate differently - they would even go as far as funding their wallets with the last money they have...

I've also had several experiences in casino houses - where most addicted customers would play themselves into owing a casino, keeping their valuables as collateral, or losing their self-esteem..
Offline casino won't ask additional KYC, proof of funds or underdoing investigation because you've give your KYC to the casino and you're a real person.
This could also be a barrier to computer illiterates...

When it comes to gambling, nothing is safe whether online or offline because that is gambling and still you are putting your money at risk, and there is a high chance that you will lose it. But if we take a look deep into a couple of advantages, we could say that offline is safer because you can't gamble anytime and anywhere, unlike the online one because you can access it with just your smartphone but in offline you'll need to go there physically and sometimes you are lazy just to go there.

When I read the title I thought that OP meant being scammed. When it comes to that offline gambling is usually safer because you get a receipt when you exchange your chips, gamble live and if you win, you take that win home. No casino will tell you that they won't redeem your chips, or that you did not win anything when you obviously did. They won't ask you for stupid KYC or proof of funds and they won't delay paying you. Online casinos sometimes scam you and when they do you can't even make a scene because they're located somewhere in Macau.

If we're talking about getting addicted then again, online casinos are more addictive due to easy access 24/4.

Casino games because they are offline and online, they are equally dangerous for people to fall into addiction, it is something that has to be made available because they are things that we are always looking for the best to have the opportunity to win, and they have Advantages, Disadvantages, Offline casinos are different because KYC is not required but rather the corresponding identification if you are of legal age or not, in an online casino things are different because you have different things, requirements that must be met to be able to withdraw money.

When any type of action is taken to have visibility of things, it is very possible that we are choosing what is most suitable, I prefer online casinos because I have more freedom to do everything, no one is watching me what I think, what What do I do or anything, and I pause whenever I want and I always look for things to improve and I take my time, that's what we have as an advantage, chances of winning? For me both are the same.

Or simply there's no such thing about being less risky or somethign we can call it to be safer because whether offline or online, chances of getting addiction would really be just that the same or similar.

You would really be putting up yourself on such situation on which you might be having some financial struggle on the time that you would really be having those careless spending through it.
We know that each person is really that different when it comes to risks handling. Some might be wary and some might really be that careless when it comes into their actions.
Gambling isnt bad as long you do find yourself that responsible on the things you are dealing with but if not then expect those negative effects.

Gamble for fun, this would really be the key. You wont really be putting up yourself on such trouble if you are really that responsible. PLay for fun and not for money
or making it as an income because this is where people do usually mess up.

whether it's

I think they are equally risky, we are talking about gambling even offline or online as long as you play that gambling risk. If you can't control yourself in spending no matter which of the two you do, you're sure to run out of money. That's up to the person, not the type of game or whether it's online or offline.

What risks do you mean? Addiction?
I think both online and offline gambling will have the same chance to bring addiction to the individual. It is not about online or offline, it is about the self management of the individual. If he always make the habit to stay away from playing gambling excessively, he will be safe from addiction although it is an online gambling. But if he never do the right way in gambling, it is possible to get addiction whether paying gambling online or offline. In offline gambling, people can come there any time, there is no limitation of the funds as well.

Offline casino won't ask additional KYC, proof of funds or underdoing investigation because you've give your KYC to the casino and you're a real person, it's not like online casino where one person can create two or more accounts.

I don't agree with you here, because It's not like they're trying to check if you're a real person by performing KYC. It's aimed, as they claim, to stop money laundering, so they want to know where youre money comes from. This is something that a physical casino will not try to verify. If you come with $1k, they will take it, allow you to gamble and allow you to with draw and go home without checking if it's drug money or if it was stolen.

Online casinos have to follow more strict rules and this is unfair towards clients who can go to a physical casino and avoid all this trouble.

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?
I think it is possible to reduce the risk between offline and online gambling offline gambling. Because when a person gambles online he has different wallets including debit cards and deposits his money there. When he gets all his benefits online, he will never be too keen to gamble with his real money but rather gamble by depositing money through various online channels. But when a person goes for offline gambling instead of online, he will gamble with the amount of money he has. When his money falls into the losers and loses it, he will find no scope to raise the money again and gamble. Moreover there are many people in the society who do not like and thinking about that many people gamble with small amount of money so that no one knows. So I think offline gambling is somewhat addictive but online gambling is harmful and people become more addicted because online no one will know if they are gambling.

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?
I terms of risk reduction, I definitely will prefer offline gambling, but this is only because where I currently live, one would have to travel miles away before he or she would find a good offline  casino to play on, and most times as the case may be, when you have little money to play, and you remember that you possibly will have to spend even more money to transport yourself to the casinos and still transport yourself back home, that becomes more than enough discouragement, and at the end, you find out that money you possibly would have gambled with if you were gambling online, or an offline casino if one was close, would be used for doing something else that is more important.

But then, on the other hand, if an offline casino is close like a stone throw or few steps away, then I see no difference from gambling online and offline in terms of risk reduction, they are exactly the same.

There's really no safer platform when it comes to gambling especially if the person is addicted or dependent in it. Whether online or offline, people who want to bet and play will find a way to access the casino games to satisfy his urge. Although for sure, accessibility also plays a role, but it isn't the sole determinant of the decision of the player to either play or do other things. Losing and winning isn't also much dependent on the setting, unless you are much more inclined in doing the one over the other which dictates your comfortability and mood that could possibly set how you play. In the end, it all boils in discipline. On how you will behave in online and offline scenarios. Because some of the factors that can lead you to gamble more on offline can be used online too and vice-versa.

While those people playing offline in casino halls play with only the little money they have at hand, and that will reduce the risk of over spending. So now my question is this

Do you even know the potential risk of playing offline is much higher than online? Debit card and credit card can be use to buy chip on offline casino too. Besides people can pawn their physical belongings such as house and lot, vehicle, jewelry and other properties immediately just to get money for gambling which is worst than wasting all your credit card limit or debit card balance.

The reason why pawn shops is popular in Las Vegas is because people keep pawning their valuable items just to gamble. This show how risky offline gambling over online gambling if we will just consider the potential loss people can do.

In my opinion, online gambling is much safer. When you participate in offline gambling, you are in a room where you may be sprayed with drugs or put in your food to increase the feeling of euphoria and encourage you to bet without thinking about the consequences. If you win, you run the risk of being victimized by scammers and robbers. In addition, you spend a lot of money to buy food and other items in the casino itself.

But anyway, online gambling is still my top order. I always look for reputable gambling websites to play, I feel secure when I leave my assets there. It's interesting that I can play online gambling anytime, anywhere, without going to gambling locations.
In my perception most of the gamblers like to gamble in online more than offline. They know that there is no platform without risk in gambling. To win at gambling, you have to take risks. But casual gamblers who do not have much interest in gambling can try offline gambling. If there are common errors in offline, it is difficult to find those errors, moreover, online games are generally more attractive than offline games. If a gambler wants he can reduce his risk on both online and offline platforms. I personally don't like offline gambling and most of the people I meet enjoy online gambling very much. Moreover, some gamblers are skeptical about offline gambling even they fell doubt in various offline games.

For me, offline gambling makes you spend more because of the fact that you may bring more cash to satisfy your cravings for gambling. They are both risky of course but for me online gambling has limitations to people ha has no enough online funds specially those who has no access to e-wallets, banks and other payment processor. Playing offline gambling has a lot more ways to fund than online gambling.
