I think you are trying to single land base casinos or gaming houses out, what about online casinos? They are also owned by people.

Gambling is a choice and not that the owners of the offline casinos don't gamble, they may prefer to gamble away from their premises; that is, in other places. It is a place to unwind, rest and catch some fun and of course those owners rest and relax too. So you can ask where they unwind  Grin. They surely do rest but when they are at their business area, it is business first before pleasure. You want to get serious with your business before your customers become your friends and you know what too much familiarity can cause to a business standard, rules and regulations. When those owners drive out, you don't know what they have gone to do.

A take home is that, most business people are experienced in the area of business or investment that they embark on  Grin. I think that quote " experience is the best teacher is very valid to this. So if you don't have requisite knowledge about a business, you will find it difficult to operate on it.

As you regularly or occasionally visits the land base casinos or bookies in your environment, do you see the casino owners gambling? Or do you even see them around the casino?

If then, why must you get addicted or waste money unnecessarily by frequently going there?
What is this logic, mate? Do you see restaurant owners always eating at their own restaurant? If not, it doesn't necessarily mean that the food is not great. If the owner is not eating there, does it mean you shouldn't eat there too? Maybe they are just too focused on managing the business that you do not see them eat there same with gambling. I would actually be more worried if the owner is constantly gambling with no care about how's his business going. It means he's just there to have fun and not manage his business properly.

Because they are there as a business owner and not a customer. They are there to lead and not have fun. But sometimes they come out and play with a few loyal customers to socialize and make sure the customers are happy. Even there is part of managing the business. I don't understand why them not gambling should be a lesson for others.

The functions and uses of the two brands of casinos are different, physical casinos have their own impression for those who visit them and so do online casinos, Believe it or not, it is common and the average person who visits a physical casino is an adult/elderly person, while those who register at an online casino are mostly young people.

Recently, the government has recorded that 440k children are involved in online gambling, meaning that land-based casinos have the trust of the upper classes, while online from the adult community, visitors who come to land-based casinos are not to waste time, they are happy and entertained when they go to land-based casinos.

Not seeing casino owners gambling when one go to their shops doesn’t mean they don’t do that in secret. It may be their thing to do it secretly and also get their wins and lose only secretive to themselves and not to be publicized. I just imagine a casino owner that has places a game in front of his customers and he’s not able to win those games, won’t it discourage those customers from continue gambling when the sole owner of it is not even good at it, how will they make money if they try to gamble using their casino to bet? It’s something logical and I feel that it is what every business owner does to give more relevance to their business and not drive customers away by them trying to prove something out of nothing.

I never see casino owner when I visited on land based casino because I think he is busy with all of his businesses. We also don't know if the owner play gambling so it is better we don't think about him and focus on our gambling activity. People get addicted to gambling and waste their money because they want to make money from casino. But casino will not let that happen as casino is his business and will make sure that his casino can earn much money. They can also get addicted but maybe there is a rules for all of the employee on that casino telling them not to playing gambling in their casino.

Casinos or bookies are specifically business for its owner, they love the money they are making from their business and you are losing your money to their pocket. If not so, then why do casinos owners not gamble?

For all the casinos I know and have visited, I don't even see the owners there and they don't gambling.

For land based gamblers, what's your experience with those casinos owners in your area? Do you see them gambling at their casino? Have you had an encounter with any of them? Do they gamble and get addicted like their customers?

Its hard to know that situation since I don't really know who is the owner of the casino I visit. Also I don't care much about that situation since their presence will not actually matter as we are dealing with our own selves on their vicinity.

But I think that they are playing on their casino since for sure that owners is also a gamblers and provably would gamble in their casino especially if they have important visitors visit on their places since this is part of how can they make those people entertained and sealed up some good partnership with people they deal with.

You don't turn to be your own competitor. As gamblers when we gamble we're competing with the casino, on that grounds I believe that's why we don't see  those casino owners gamble because it's like trying to reck yourself. If I may ask, what's the essence of gambling in my own casino if am to pay myself should I get to win on a game?

Someone once told me that for those casino owners that do gambling they usually gamble using some others casino order than theirs. And I think am beginning to see some atom of truth in what I was told.

I know of a betting station manager who bets on his betting station; his reason why he set up a betting station is so he can bet and still make profits, and there are also casino owners who play in their own casino to test the casino they are operating, but they limit playing in their casinos because people might think that the game can be rigged if the owner keeps winnings.

Yeah, I don't see them too. It's just the same with illegal drugs, you won't see the dealer using the drug but he sells them only. That's business. I've seen that in one documentary made in Philadelphia where most of the people living on the streets have a disease because of the drugs. I am surprised though that the dealer accepted an interview even though he is risking his own business.
It's true, that most gambling businesses do not have a gambler owner because it will ruin his own profit-making machine. If he really wants to grow it, then it's best he won't do it. He can always just play for me using a credit on his own casino and maybe he will only do it to make an example with high rollers checking his business.

I admit I am more of an online gambler than someone who regularly visit brick-and-mortar casinos, though I have been in them a couple of times in the past. The few times I have accompanied my family to play lottery or play slots during our vacations I think I have never seen members of the staff or the owner of the casinos engaging in gambling themselves, not even in their own slot machines or bingo floors.

I share you idea, owners of casinos and bookies have mentalized themselves into being clear enough on what it is a business for them and what is risking money without an apparent reason... since there are they house and the house always wins, there is no need for them to try to go against themselves.
Nevertheless, I don't think we should completely avoid gambling or quitting because we do not see owners of casinos or bookies to also gamble, regardless of our own expectations and monetary status, gambling is a good source of entertainment and if we are lucky it can help us with a little bit of extra money in the short term.

It depends on how we manage our bankroll and the level of awareness we have.

Unfortunately because gambling is prohibited in my country so there was no physical casino or land based casinos available in my country so i didn't know really sure whether the casinos owners liked to gambling or not but some of my friends who visiting land based casinos outsides of my country has been says that casinos owners will not gamble especially at their own casinos because they says the owners are running the casinos for bussiness purposes so they want to earn money from their casinos which they builed especially for long term but in my opinion there are possibilities casinos owners still hobby to gambling but the difference is they do it secretly and unpublicized

Most of the land based casinos I know are franchise. Their owners are not always resident in the location where they are situated. This question should be about the employees. They employees are forbidded from gambling and this would extend to the owners as well if they are around.

Casinos owners should be focused on finding ways to grow their business, expand and even carry out some corporate social responsibilities. Notably, they are measures that these land based casinos to prevent people from getting addicted.

There are no physical casinos in my area; however, there are literally numerous betting shops that mainly focus on sports betting and national lotteries but also feature a few casino games such as slots. As a matter of fact, a friend of mine works part-time in one, and he hasn't ever mentioned the owners playing any games or participating in the lottery. What's the point? They generate so much money from gambling addicts that they don't actually have the need to be involved in the industry in any other way. Perhaps they could write a lotto ticket every once in a while or place a few bets on sporting events, but other than that, there would be no point.

Honestly, I have not experienced gambling in land-based casinos, so I can't answer the OP's question either. Now, if it's just my perception, I think for the individual casino player, it's not important for the player to know who the owner is; of course he entered the casino to gamble, and whatever his reason is, that's up to him/her.

Then we know that the casino owners—most of them are really businessmen and not gamblers—that's why they hired a team to manage their casino business, where their aim is only to make money. And the profit will come from the money gambled by the gamblers who will play and bring money into their casino.

I don't know if where you live there will be many casinos that have a single owner but the ones I have been to are owned by a listed company and therefore it makes no sense to talk about the 'owner' because there is not just one. There are large shareholders, but you won't see them in the casino more than once a year at best and they're not going to act like they're 'the' owner, maybe they're just passing by because they're meeting friends or something, just like you and me.

There are only few physical casinos in my location but there are many bet shops that focus mainly on sports betting. Some owners of these sports bet shops are gamblers, but they gamble responsibly from my little observation. It will take someone who is an experienced gambler to run a successful bet shop (I might be wrong). I have seen some of them analysing games with people and even showing their bet slips. Anyway, there is nothing wrong for casino owners to place bets, but it is more important for them to gamble responsibly. If they ever become addicted which I have not seen, the casino will definitely go bankrupt.

First of all, lemme correct the impression that land based casino owners don’t gamble. Some, if not most of them do gamble from time to time, I used to own one of those casinos and through that, I’ve been able to make friends with other casino owners in our platform, we used to have a group on WhatsApp where we all interacted and shared business ideas too, so believe me when I say even casino owners do gamble, some in their own casino, while some prefer to go to other casinos to gamble, back then, I have many of them who would leave their casinos and come to mine to gamble. Just like every other gamblers, we have some of them that are so addicted to gambling that they end up using all their commissions for the week to gamble immediately it comes in at the beginning of the week, we also have those who only gamble less frequently, we have those who are responsible gamblers and we have those who prefer not to gamble at all, but the honest truth is that, most casino owners are gamblers, you just don’t see them gambling because they don’t do it like every other gamblers does, probably to maintain the reputation of their casino or for some other reasons.

I have not really seen or met any of the local casino owners at their casino for one day. As we all know, casinos are business ventures so I feel they are just trying to avoid getting involved with their casino when it comes to gambling and I also know that not all of them are gamblers maybe the ones that do gamble do not go close to their casino to gamble as that is a business for them to generate income and they might have their own personal reasons why they do not frequent their casino too.

We all know that casinos are designed for business not as a hobby for their owners. The house always has an edge so they don't need to gamble themselves they're already earning from that setup.

In my experience I've never seen a casino owner gambling in their own establishment. It's just common sense they're there to run the business not to participate in the activity that generates their income.
