Topic: Online or offline gambling which is more safer? - page 4. (Read 1662 times)

If he basically cannot control himself from gambling, whether online or offline gambling is the same, he will overspend his money. Because whether gambling is safe or not has nothing to do with online or offline, but how a gambler can limit themselves so that they don't overspend their money and still gamble according to their bankroll.

I support you in this case, indeed both have their advantages and disadvantages, but still both have the same bad impact if done irresponsibly or excessively.
maybe you have mentioned the weaknesses and advantages of both but I will mention that both have the same disadvantages that online casinos and offline casinos have the negative impact of becoming addicted if you cannot control your gambling patterns, for example, an offline gambler really likes gambling at the casino and continues gamble with the assumption that they want to win big no matter how much they spend and end up becoming addicted and another example in online gambling is that a gambler has the same assumption that they want to win big and spends large amounts of money gambling and ends up becoming addicted.

for me, this is all about mindset and how a gambler understands gambling. If his mindset is very mature, gambling in online casinos or offline casinos will never make him addicted.

When deciding between online and offline gaming, you need to think about how to handle your risks. Debit cards make it easy to add money to online gambling accounts, which can make people who are addicted to gaming lose a lot of money. People who play in real casinos, on the other hand, usually reduce their risk by only using cash. In terms of lowering risk, gambling in person seems like it would be better because it limits spending and might help people better handle their money.

It is a normal thing for gamblers to focus on the chances of winning because that is what they want in gambling. They will return to gambling more often when they have not been able to win and will probably use more money. However, it will not provide greater chances of winning because gambling does not provide winnings too often to people who want to earn income from gambling. If they want to fill their free time, they can gamble whenever they want but to make money, they should look for other, more promising places.

Everyone who gambles certainly doesn't want to experience problems as a result of gambling, but unfortunately, only a few can avoid these problems while other people experience many problems. That is why when gambling, a person must have self-discipline and responsibility so that they do not exceed their limits in gambling. If they have self-awareness in gambling, they will not try to exceed their limits in gambling because that will only make things difficult for them and they will also lose a lot of money. We have also seen many examples of people who experienced defeat and what happened to them so we can learn a lot from their experiences.

I think offline gambling is less risky compared to online gambling where we can have access to it at anytime. Gambling is a game of choice and chances and there are some time when we might want to gamble but we don't have the time to go to a physical shop or casino to gamble. For someone that usually gamble online, it will be very easy to get to online and start betting since gambling online is very easy to do.

 Physical gambling can be less addictive because the stress of going to a gambling shop or casino can be very stressful and staying there is another case. There are people that go to casino or gambling shop less often but they can stay there for longer time which is one of the fun going to gamble physically.

That's from your point of view but maybe it will be different from the point of view of other people who prefer offline casinos, I think we all know that both have their advantages and disadvantages so we can't judge from just one side, for example as you said that when If we win at an offline casino, we might not feel safe with the winning money we get, especially if it is seen by many people there too.

But you also need to realize that winning at online casinos also sometimes often has problems consciously. There are also casinos that commit fraud and run away with all the user's money and don't pay the user's winnings for whatever reason. They will accuse us of cheating, even though we always comply with the rules. These are just some examples that online and offline casinos have their own drawbacks depending on how we choose which one we think is more comfortable to play, to be honest I am also more comfortable playing at online casinos because I don't really like crowds.

Exactly like my idea above that in gambling all we can do is take several preventive measures to minimize the number of losses so that they are not too significant, but unfortunately people (gamblers) usually focus more on the chance of winning, even though the reality is the opposite which is true if you If you chase wins too much, the number of losses usually increases, the reason is clear that gambling is not a place to earn income but is just an activity to fill your free time.

On the other hand, I am consciously sure that all people, including addicts, do not want to experience problems as a result of gambling, therefore firmness in changing viewpoints and beliefs really must be emphasized, all of this is for our own good so that we don't experience many problems such as financial along with some stress from unwanted situations. It all starts with self-awareness thanks to a correct understanding of gambling. I think you can achieve that awareness by looking at the examples of other addicts who have already suffered from many problems, take the positives and throw away the negatives and make changes for the good.

Offline and online gambling has it own risk, one of the things we most understand is that in as much as we feel that offline is very saver than online maybe base on the fact that it reduces the rate at which we intend gambling on a regular basis but what we should also no is that we could also be exposing ourselves for people to see that you are a gambler.

But however I prefer online gambling because it saves time and energy of moving from one gambling shop to another, so perhaps through online gambling all you just need is to be at your comfort zone and set your bet, also with the online gambling nobody can know if you have won a bet or not but in times of offline gambling no matter how many times you make a win people will always be aware, which could otherwise put you on a dangerous position so perhaps whichever way we reason it i think online is better for safety reasons.

Staying close to whatever activity you love could get one addicted to it. Having the online casino in our palms can facilitate the urge of gambling on the player compared to an offline casino, that requires a gambler to think about many factors like transportation, hotel bills, drinks etc. Those thoughts are able to minimize the time a player spends thinking about casino. The online casino, with all the portability, availability, and comfortability, leads gamblers to loss of control. Whenever money gets to the person, he can simply login his account and gamble. While in offline casino the players would have to change his mind, due to the other factors which he may not be bouyant to pay, unless he's sleeping in his car close to the casino. He's also pass through hunger, while staying in his car.

Really?

Although each country has it's own laws, but many country who declare gambling is illegal means any form of gambling whether it's online or offline, it's illegal. If the casino not list your country in forbidden jurisdiction, it doesn't mean you're legal to gamble.

Some of countries do legalize gambling, but when it comes to online gambling, it's illegal since they only allow local casinos.

I would say that offline casinos are way more safer than online. When we gamble online, all we have to do is to make few clicks and account balance is already topped-up. Gambler does not have to make a lot of actions to start and continue gambling. In offline casino, as a minimum you need to walk to exchange desk (if you play with chips), get to the casino from home, if you play cash, then you are limited with what you have in your wallet, and it case loosing everything, on the way to ATM you might change your mind and dont get back to casino. Offline casinos have more things that might distract from making a new bet or continuing gambling.

We can only reduce the risk so that it doesn't become big, especially if it is gambling because by preventing bigger risks, we can use our time and money wisely. We will not try to chase victory, which is difficult for us to get, so we will just have fun playing gambling, and we can stop according to the time we have determined. It is true that online and offline gambling certainly has its own risks, and it is up to us to reduce these risks. The size of the risk will be our focus to prevent so that no serious problems will occur.

If we can't prevent the risks, we will only face problems that will probably get bigger, and when that happens, we can become addicted, and we don't even realize it. And we should take precautions before it happens so that we don't face major risks. That is why we need self-awareness to be able to prevent the risks so that we will not become emotional or disappointed with the results we get from gambling because in gambling, we can experience bigger losses if we lose self-control. We must be able to take care of ourselves. At the same time, gambling so that we will not experience experiences like those experienced by gamblers out there who have lost a lot of money and also become gamblers who are addicted to gambling. If we can gamble responsibly, we will avoid various problems that will only add to the burden on our lives while we cannot get pleasure from gambling.

Do you think that before there were online casinos, gamblers did it in offline casinos and no one was addicted? If online casinos are more risk for people to be addicted then the government will be able to quickly find a solution so that its citizens don't get addicted, namely only allowing offline casinos and closing online casinos, why don't they do that? because both have the same portion to make gamblers risk to addicted.
Online casinos are just the implementation of technology so that people can gamble without having to leave their homes so it becomes simpler, but offline and online are both damaging if they are not done responsibly and do not have limits that are applied as limits so that they will stop when they reach that limit, so nothing can reduce the risk because gamblers have their own preferences, whether they prefer offline or vice versa.

That was the point of the OP, in both physical and online casinos the odds of the games should be similar, and while on an online casino the minimum bet should be way lower, the games are also many times faster and you could even gamble many different games at the same time, something that you cannot really do at a physical casino.

Also while you are gambling online you have access to all your money that is in digital form and this could facilitate a bad decision on your part, while when gambling at a physical casino if you were to leave your debit, credit cards and phone at home, you will be limited by the cash you can carry with you, so physical casinos should be relatively safer than their online counterparts, albeit not by much.

This made me flash back to someone post I red here the other time that said online casino or gambling site are.more risky because you could keep funding without someone having full control over you and whenever you made a life changing game no one will as well knows how much you already made. In realistically when gambling be it traditional gambling or online we should try to set our limits it's not ethical to keep gambling until you double your money, it looks like it's gradually associating with greed because anyone who constantly gamble to make winning wouldn't know when they will turn to a gambling addicts.

Do some individual gamble for fame, I didn't know some individual gamble for fun. I only know some individual gamble for money and for entertainment. Sometimes I gamble as I want to double the money that I have in my bank account while other times I gamble as i want to have fun. When I want to have fun or entertainment, I gamble with physical casino as it'll make me to interact with many others gamblers and have fun while gambling.

But when I want to make money, I gamble online so I don't get distracted with other gamblers. I can spend many hours gambling in my room without any distractions and I will make money that can help me for the week. Online casino are more comfortable than offline casino. When gambling online I don't have to worry about my safety as I'm gambling from my home and not in a traditional casino.

OfCourse nothing changes in gambling, the strategies work in different ways to maintain the behavior of the human. If the game doesn't change, the player changes. The result of the player's change of behavior is always wrong and bad. Thereby affecting the society of the addict. All these things happen to the players and they'll lose control according to the body responses. Who cares about the software used in running the game. It's automated. Humans only suffer the changes in the process. An offline casino player could get more players to engage on his problem gambling. But an online gambler can be left out in his room wondering who to share his problems. They both have Pros and cons in regards to the gambler.

I don't think there is any safer one in gambling,whether online or offline,it's still gambling,and all of them requires you to use money to stake them,I guess the question should have been,which one among the two is more preferable? In that case,I would choose the online gambling because it saves one time to go out to queue up infront of a Cassino, to play a game,online gambling gives you the ability to be able to cash out your game quickly when you feel that it's about to cut.But one  thing I don't like about online gambling is that if you don't have self control,you'll always be tempted to deposit money into your bet account,and this is very draining because your main account is linked to your bet account which makes you get access to your money easily.

That is how gambling addiction ruins our lives and whether it is offline or online casino the results are still the same as overspending happens.
Once we have fallen into addiction, that hard to get out because what is in our mind and what gives us pleasure is to gamble, nothing else. Because most of the casino games are available online, the more it fueled to such addiction as we can access anywhere as long as we have internet. This is why those who want to stop gambling, prefer to stay in a place that internet is not available so they aren't tempted to get back.

The process wouldnt really definitely not change and just said that everything would really just flows down on how you would really be treating up gambling on which
you are really just that playing for fun or really just that playing for money. People cant really just that be the same when it comes to their own inputs and their own impressions towards it.
Being safer? There's no such thing about safe but rather it would really be just that depending on how you would really be handling up yourself towards gambling.
If you do it for leisure then its just fine but for making it as a source of income then this is where shit things happen.
