You must be very gullible if you believe that someone can bet $200 to win $100k. And this person says he wins $100k daily? I don’t care how lucky you are, no one can win that big repeatedly. Your new friend makes so much money yet he rides the public bus lol. Isn’t he supposed to be super rich, driving around in his Lambo. Either he’s drunk, a compulsive liar or a scammer looking for victims who will want to pay for fixed bets. OP keep to yourself when in public places, scammers are always looking for victims to exploit.

That with $200 he can stake and win about $100000 daily something that you won't even struggle to get, they can't even pay someone at work monthly up to that amount. So if their is no more online gambling that means definitely there won't be no more gambling at all. So how will you cope in your country if eventually they put an end to online gambling?
I guess what you mean here is N200 to win N100,000, which I have seen many people archive even more, but they can't boast of making that happen on a regular basis because they don't control the game. If it's that simple, then the casino and gambling industries would have shut down by now.
 
But it's very unfortunate that those guys can be picturing gambling as a means of survival when the outcome is not always guaranteed. They have time and a chance to get a real job that can sustain them rather than depending on gambling.

They are lucky if they are seeing that gambling can give them their daily source of income. Not many gamblers are that fortunate to always have winnings. For that person who is seeing as gambling as the main reason of survival, he really should assess his situation if he is indeed always winning in this game or already on the losing end. Definitely, there are other options to survive outside of gambling. Find a decent job or other odd jobs to sustain your day to day needs. You will find out that  you can survive outside of gambling, if you will just explore your skills and expertise.

First online gambling is as a result of the internet's existence. Hence can't get all terminated. And even if the person thinks one could win such an amount in gambling which is not a lie, he still sounds naive and novice of how gambling actually works. The trouble with his perspective is as a result of gambling outcome not being consistent as some people may think. If online gambling gets terminated people will be free from compulsive gambling I guess. Or everyone heads back to the offline casino in huge numbers. People just have a low expectations from gamblers that's why they think gamblers get money through gambling and prefer doing it as a side hustle. It's a game and not a form earning more money.

Earlier this morning I was going to work in a bus I over heard, some one complaining very badly that if the government tries to put an end to gambling. That many people will die in hungry with this our economy which nothing is working, no work for people food are at higher amount in their and some people are benefiting from gambling this days, that mostly him his benefiting from gambling.

It seems to me that people who think this way are heading down a very dangerous path, gambling does not replace a fixed income, it does not replace employment, it does not generate stable profits in a way that allows people to pay bills every month without having problems, When these people say that they will die of hunger if the government bans gambling, I realize that these people are still unaware of the danger of looking at gambling as a source of income, that is not how they should solve the problem lack of food, I highly doubt that these people are winning every day at gambling

That with $200 he can stake and win about $100000 daily something that you won't even struggle to get

I highly doubt this is possible. They must be lying so that government decisions are seen as bad, it is not possible for gambling to generate these profits every day

they can't even pay someone at work monthly up to that amount.

The salaries that governments pay depend on the economy of each country, but even if the government of that country paid $200 in salary per month, it would still be much better to have that salary every month than not to have that salary and be dependent on gambling. unlucky. Gambling should be seen as entertainment and not as a source of income

So if their is no more online gambling that means definitely there won't be no more gambling at all. So how will you cope in your country if eventually they put an end to online gambling?

I would simply respect the decision of my country's government

OP this story of yours sounds fictional,  how can someone that has no job or money to eat get money to pay for gambling. I was wondering the countryman that that could do such but however, there are some people who can but I think this story of yours sounds too funny.
I could imagine your story of using $200 to win $100000 how possible could that be in d country you claimed that there is no job employment, then how do you expect someone who has not eaten to comfortablely use such an amount of money to gamble knowing fully well that gambling is a thing of luck and as such, it is very risky.

That's the kind of guy who puts his mouth where his ass is. No way in hell does he see gambling as a viable way to supplant his lack in income lol.

In all seriousness though props to your government for imposing such bans, I am an avid gambler personally but I swear against it, especially when I see everyone who gets their dirty paws in it eventually fall into gambling addiction and even more serious problems down the line. In my opinion it's much better to have it banned for good by the government that I am in than see someone else ruin their lives all because of gambling, and besides, I have my ways if I really want to gamble so it's not like I'm going to be hampered by some ban.

I have a good feeling that a lot of the people in your country thinks the same way as this guy, the fact alone that they think immediately of easy money when gambling is brought to discussion concerns me a lot in itself, makes me think that a lot more people than what the government cares to admit thinks this way and that they are really down bad when it comes to gambling.

If a country is having a struggling economy, the government should be doing enough to support it and create new sectors, rather than destroy the ones they deem "unsafe". Yes indeed gambling may indeed have some harmful effects in part of the population but a government should prioritize to crush corruption, create infrastructure, lasting jobs, a viable public services sector etc. Countries like Indonesia for instance have introduced very draconian measures against gambling but people still want to do it.

Instead, what are governments doing to combat their ailing public sectors, unemployment, crumbling infrastructure etc? To be perfectly honest I care more if my country has functioning hospitals, food guaranteed for everyone to eat, free universities etc. rather than forbidding gambling. So long as my country is not prioritizing these, I'd be very against my government focusing its resources in fighting online gambling.
Governments prefer easy targets. "Look, we're doing something!" But gambling ban? The country's biggest difficulties won't be solved by that. What about hospitals? Schools? Roads? These things construct a nation and improve lives for all. The cancer that erodes those foundations is corruption. You get what? A non-working system

Not letting people risk themselves to death. It's organizing. A government must prioritize what matters to make an impact. Education, healthcare, infrastructure. This makes a country strong and gives citizens the means to achieve. Regulate and secure gambling, but don't allow it detract from the overall picture. After meeting basic needs, you can focus on details. Until then, you're lipsticking a pig. Man, priorities matter. Governments need to get their priorities right

their is something I really want you to understand about the government, they don't care about the well-being of their citizens if they notice that 100% people are benefiting from gambling they don't care or mind to ban gambling. They have the power but not knowing that if they do that they're making things worse for the citizens. That's the main reason why this guy was complaining bitterly cause he knows what the government are capable of doing, and if the government knows how much that goes into casino betting a day they'll have the interest to link with him or either they ban it from the country.

If the government can put an end to online gambling, then we have to go back to offline gambling. I don’t know why the government has to ban gambling, it doesn’t make any sense to me. I know gambling shouldn’t be taken as a source of income, but some people are gambling and they are surviving with the money they are winning from gambling, like in my country, most youth are now gambling just to make money for survival, if you stop gambling, how do you expect people like that to survive, and the government is not creating more jobs for the youth that are unemployed.

So how will you cope in your country if eventually they put an end to online gambling?
I don’t have any problem if the government ban gambling in my country, am not the type that gamble for the sake of money, I just gamble for fun, so if they can ban gambling, I will just have to look for something else to always make me happy.

The gamblers in your country are they paid for gambling as a form of employment or empowerment? It is only when a people's source of income (jobs) are put to an end that it could lead to most of them dieing out of overthinking and other health complications out of a loss of hope but this doesn't make sense with gambling cause gambling is not a means livelihood. So it's either that young man you overheard complaining is a jobless gambling addict or he is just out of him mind.

 
Quote
they aren't payed or employed neither empowerd but they see it as a source of earning daily with a little amount, but i don't think the young man was jobless maybe his source of income is not enough for him due to his responsibilities he have, so with my understanding here is that his so much addicted to gambling that he can't stand it if they really put an end to gamling.

That with $200 he can stake and win about $100000 daily something that you won't even struggle to get, they can't even pay someone at work monthly up to that amount.
Truth is that some people that gamble do assume that they make much profit from gambling than they are losing to it but it's just a fallacy and I have always disputed it. Gamblers incur a lot of loss before hitting a win and most times before they get another win they could have experienced losses double the amount the last won.  Yea, maybe some person do make a profit (mainly the very minute few that hits a jackpot) but this number of persons are just about a 3% of the total number of gamblers found in a society. The profit is always with the house due to its hedge.

It is my first time hearing that if the government puts an end to online gambling, people will suffer in some countries. I fully go against that, that people will suffer. the truth that many people thing about that doesn't know is that people lose money in gambling than what they are gaining and what is there again is that the percentage of people losing in gambling is far greater than people winning.
 
In fact, gambling is what is causing a lot of youth to be lazy nowadays. Many youth have the opportunity to learn some alternative work and hustle hard, but due to the hope they have from the gaming side that they will win, the small amount of money they have will just waste it there.
 
And this one that you are talking about, using $200 to win $100,000, is not that easy; it is very hard to win such a thing. If it is like that, winning in gambling is possible, and many gamblers will be rich.

how on earth did you have to agree with them that gambling is a way to curb the drastic state of the country's economy? Do you really think them casinos are out there to fund your pockets and leave theirs? Is gambling more like a self-enrichment project to you? Y'all need to be careful how you interpret things sometimes.
A country banning gambling is not even the problem. What if the country goes ahead to write to the casino that they should not service their region anymore, in this case even a VPN will be useless.
you can access any casino with the TOR onion browser or any strong VPN

What does he mean by saying that many people will die of hunger? Does it mean that a lot of people in your country are surviving by gambling? In a country where the economic system is bad, gambling is not the solution to such a problem because it will even cause the gambler to lose the money they have.

Although every gambler has their own experiences and stories regarding their gambling lifestyle but I don't totally agree that the man was telling the truth that he actually stakes $200 and wins $100k daily. It is difficult to believe such lies. If he actually wins such an amount daily, then he would have opened his own casino or probably not be bothered if the government wants to ban gambling because he is supposed to have had enough savings.

There are many online gambling sites nowadays so even though that countries that they banned gambling still the residences or the people can access the gambling sites as long as they have a good internet connection.
A country banning gambling is not even the problem. What if the country goes ahead to write to the casino that they should not service their region anymore, in this case even a VPN will be useless. A similar scenario is if the casino on their own decides not to render their services to that region again, also, a VPN will still be useless even with a good connection.

Gambling is just spoiling life so if there is no online gambling then most of the individuals will sustain a better life and will be involved in a better job. Only gamblers think that if there is no gambling then their way of earning will be stopped and they will die due to hunger but this is just a thought.
Gambling is only spoiling the life of only those people who gamble irresponsibly. It is the same thing with those who drink irresponsibly too. It has always been said that we should gamble responsibly and stick to the rules that have been set aside for it.
Quote
I assume that without gambling people will start to live a healthy life which they cannot maintain due to gambling because the loss is higher and winning is minimum so I think it will be a good step if people start to be a part of regular jobs instead of gambling.
Only gambling addict that this is addressed to. A human who has been able to find a balance between gambling, their Worklife, family life. and other areas of their life will not even talk about healthy living because they are already doing it.

Gambling is just one of many source of entertainment. You can go traveling, drink on the bar, and activities that you can enjoy in exchange for your money. The existence of online casino makes gambling accessible to anyone in any part of the world as long as you have an internet connection.

There’s a lot of casino that offers decentralized games which doesn’t need you to provide KYC so even if your government ban gambling you can still play online using the decentralized casino.

This is the perks of living on digital world which everything is accessible already.
But, the OP is talking about gambling as a source of income, that there are people who rely on it to live. Not just the player but there are also those who work in a casino. I agree on the guy who said that many will suffer once gambling is ended by their government.

I just hope that the government will also look at it or on the consequences that their actions can bring. Maybe instead of banning it, they will only released a program instead, to help those who are badly suffering with it? I think decentralized casinos wouldn't be possible if without the help of cryptos but there will still be centralized illegal gambling. I won't advice to take a risk and continue accessing them though because our situations can only get worse once we get caught or scammed.

They meaning my local government? I don't really care what they do but there's going to be a lot of underground places popping up if that happens. How are they going to block online casinos that use cryptocurrencies? How are they going to stop me from using VPN or simply leaving the country for a while. It's maybe 2 hours of driving and I'm in another country...
I can also stoip gambling. I'm not addicted and this would actually be fine in the long run as I usually don't win big but also don't lose a lot of money, so I'd have more time to do other things.
It seems unlikely that what they want to do will happen because the rest of the casinos or gambling sites are scattered, just like you said, no matter what plan they plan to do, there are many ways for the person to return to gambling, such as using a VPN , that will be the main thing that will happen because not everyone can afford to leave the country just to gamble. Just continue your momentum in gambling without becoming addicted to it because you will enjoy playing without feeling pressure because you are not like others whose goal is to win or recover all the money they lost.

I don't intend to judge or make assumptions about the OP personally, yeah maybe it's because of her ignorance.  It's true, legal gambling in a country is enough to provide big taxes for the country, but it's not like the opinion you heard in the conversation you conveyed in this thread. you can refer to several countries that prohibit gambling, and those countries are not like the ones we are discussing in this thread.

Second point, with a bankroll of $200 one can double it even more than what you say. yeah, it all depends on the gamble and luck. but it is important for you to know, not everyone is as lucky as to win every day. if someone claims so, he is most likely a liar. whatever the gambling, it is not that easy to double it as easily as you say. just imagine, what about the casino. If there are several hundred people in a country in one casino who win every day like you said, don't you think that the casino will have problems. in fact, it ends up going bankrupt without the government having to end it. The point is, this discussion is not relevant to me personally.

Maybe you are from a third-world nation where there is a high rate of unemployment which has made people see gambling as a major source of income. I have also heard people say that it was gambling that is sustaining many people in my country. Except there is research that backs this claim, I don't think it is correct. More people are losing than those who are winning. Gambling companies are racking in big profits while gamblers are just winning a small percentage of the profit.

Before even thinking of winning you need to earn money to gamble. If you don't have a job, you might end up engaging in crime to gamble. Anybody who sees gambling as a full-time job will suffer from lack and want because wins from betting are unstable and unpredictable. If the government stops online betting, one would have to switch to physical gambling. Although it will be difficult to switch we would still have to gamble.

Gambling (in the first place) was never meant to taken as a source of income, so why should putting an end to it be a problem to anyone except if it's about those who are addicted to gambling and how they can manage to cope or adjust when they can't be able to gamble no more.
If it's about making money and livelihood, I would say that is and was never meant to be taken as a source of income, so, who ever is depending on gambling a means of livelihood is supposed to go out there and get a job for him or herself and only gamble as a hobby, this way, you are never afraid of will happen if gambling is put to an end.

And on the other hand, @op, you only talked about online gambling. If online gambling is completely banned, offline gambling will still exist and I believe online gamblers will easily switch to gambling physically.
But again, all this are vain imagination, as long as the internet continue to exist, gambling, both online and offline will continue to exist.
