Both gambling ng online and gambling offline has their different level of risk. I cannot emphatically say which is better among the two, but I can state the obvious difference between them which will enable you to draw a conclusion according to how it affects you. When you talk about gambling online there is a very much likely hood that you will lose much amount of money because no one will know about your gambling habit unless you inform them about your gambling habit. If you are someone that is so emotionally strong you could lose thousands of dollars and still keep it to yourself and be dying slowly.
In the other hand someone who gambles offline will always get some advice from people when they are going extreme. One of the disadvantages of offline gambling is that the pressure of peer groups could make you gamble above your budget and again, whenever you have a big win your friends will also want to share from it which might not happen when you gamble online because they would not know when you win.
There is nothing better or worse than the two because they all have the same thing, if we gamble offline at big casino and really trusted by many people then we will be able to get security.
As well as at big and trusted online casino it will also be like that.
And for acts of manipulation and fraud, it actually also depends on which casino we visit to gamble, as long as we go to the right casino, we can avoid manipulation or fraud.
And of course in the context of which online and offline casinos are preferred regarding the use of budget also depends on the gambler himself whether he can have limits and control over himself in the casino or not, no matter how good the casino is used if self-control is not is set then budget overruns will occur.
It just that online casinos have succeeded in providing lot of convenience and this is why many people think online casinos are more dangerous for gambler addiction and financial sustainability.
Well, from what you said about the pressure put on by a group of people which causes us to gamble uncontrollably and can exceed the limits, it is not as if it is weakness of offline casinos but our own fault.
A gambler emotions when they win or lose will increase by themselves and of course without pressure from the people around us it will also make us gamble beyond our limits.
I will say again that all this depends on how the gambler himself behaves and has limits and control over himself.
It is impossible for gambler to do something stupid if they have managed to control themselves even though there is lot of pressure they feel.
