Topic: Today starts Safer Gambling Week (Read 330 times)

If you will only gamble with what you can afford and just play whenever you have extra, this game will truly give you fun and entertainment and not stress. But when you start chasing your losses, that's when this game will give you trouble that you don't want to deal with.

One of the main reason on why gambling is really that creating those kind of people is that because of the love of money and not really that seeing the real aspect when it comes into its existence. We do know that on the time or moment that you do have some high hopes on making money with it then this is where addiction starts to kick in on which on the moment or time that you do have this kind of approach then it will really be ending up on having this kind of problem. Having these kind of programs or whatever it will be then it is really that something thats a good gesture or something helpful to those who are currently facing up some gambling issues.
On the  time or moment that you've seen yourself having these kind of impulsive approach towards gambling then reading up or seeing or attending into these kind of stuffs might really be that helpful.

The gambling and gamblers are not the bad one,some people who doesn’t consume alcohol or beer will consider the drinking is bad habit and injuries to health.Like wise the non gamblers think the gambling had bad habit.But it’s not the true,many gamblers loss the money in the gambling was true.But the gamblers who had good analytical skills in the gambling will make the big money in the gambling.But the gambling had risk of losing their money.But the gamblers who earned good money from the gambling will able to pay all the credits because of the gambling loss. The gamblers should understand the real game to make some money from the gambling site.

True, by introducing what and how gambling really is, especially in terms of its risks, it is likely that the level of gamblers or people who are addicted will decrease because the idea will be able to reach more people, meaning that the further the advertising is spread, the more people will be saved from misunderstandings about what and how gambling really is.

Basically, every idea that leads to prevention to minimize all unwanted possibilities will always be a brilliant idea, especially if we talk about gambling which involves a very high potential risk, such as most cases that have occurred where many people lose their minds just because they see the opportunity to win in gambling, the last I just hope that with an idea like this, there will be more responsible gamblers who change their approach.

In as much as most person see gambling as a bad habit, due to the fact that it is easily abused by some gamblers, gambling is a game of hope and anyone who understands this shouldn't have problems gambling with what they can afford to loss. There are several persons out there who have become rich just by gambling. The reasons  most persons see gambling as a bad habit is as a result of the fact that bookies don't help in limiting gamblers participation in gambling even when gamblers are making irresponsible decisions. Gamble can actually  tell if a person has a disciplined lifestyle, it's  really easy to tell and know the ambition of gambler when it comes to wealth creation. 

It's a hard pill for me to swallow when it concerns gambling hotlines, because unless it is for online gambling platforms, I wonder how much help the gambling hotlines for advice on an offline casino or gambling centres would do. Firstly, those who are prone gamblers and have unknowingly become addicted can try to delete the apps from their phones/device and also endeavor to stay away from those who cajole them to gamble on a sure odd.

Whether it is for entertainment or not, should be the reason that will be enough to make one come up with the mindset to reduce or re-engage gambling activities. They can also try to limit the budget expenses on gambling as much as they should try to opt out of gambling groups that share free betting tickets for trial.

Pretty an interesting initiative I have not seen anything like that before. It is important to inform the masses that gambling can be safe. I know people who are convinced that gambling = dependence and they do not understand that this entertainment is and nothing more.I also wanted to see more advertising companies about risks and the right approach to games, and need more educational material for beginner games.

I think anyone who has enough money is suitable for gambling because if you don't have money you will be gambling with loans. Whenever you lose, the thought of repaying the loan will arise and because of this bad reaction will take over the life. Prepare yourself by trying to understand the various harmful aspects of gambling addiction. Addicts often don't want to think about it or don't remember it. Instead of this habit, you have to prepare yourself by analyzing the harmful effects symptoms or the reasons behind it. The thing that is very important before treatment is to create awareness about it. That applies to the addict as well as to others in society. 

Every religion teaches good deeds that do not lead its followers astray on the wrong path, whether or not to carry them out depends on each individual, whatever your religion, you all have beliefs about which are good and which are bad,

OP: I really support this, where every person/beginner who gambles is taught to be a responsible gambler and is expected not to become addicted

Marking today as a safer gambling week or not isn't sufficient enough to reduce the ills associated with gambling because I believe some gamblers may not be learned enough to read or write fluently and only understand the numbers rather than any help that comes in any form to deter them from gambling.

Gambling may not be as bad as people think it to be, but due to religious beliefs, traditional and cultural reasons, some persons may see it as bad as smoking or drinking and label it an irresponsible venture because well, people only condemn what they do not understand. If people were to try to understand that gambling is for relaxation or for fun and one might get lucky from chance, then there wouldn't be so many addicts parading gambling halls as if it were a career of sort.

Everything in this life is like a two sided coin. Gambling is one of them. It has its pros and cons but its left for those who have access to it, to choose if they will use it for the right thing or the wrong thing. Of course not everyone will make good use of gambling platforms or get to gamble responsibly. So, others should not completely tag gambling to be an illegal, evil and irritating way of making money. People go as far as doing prostitution, robbery, cheating/lying and scamming to make money. But gambling has to do with an individual risk on our hard earned money. Only those who get to do stupid things in the name of getting money for gambling, that is the people that is abusing the system.

I noticed the tax payed by all these casinos to the government provides huge money for them. Gambling is one of the thriving sector after technologies.

So uhm, what do you actually do in this kind of week? I swear the metric they use (which is social media clicks) is really a kind of dumb way of analyzing how effective the week is. Sure if it was a popularity thing then hell yeah it's effective. But it's not, it's a week to supposedly help about stuff around gambling (which I still don't know what they plan to do). If it was postings and whatnot of gambling warnings and sharing of the companies that help addicts then I guess, but that's not something you do only when this kind of week rolls up. Groups who aim to help should do that kind of thing weekly no?

Though I guess the initiative helps. But again, said initiative should rather be a standard already.

I hope those reading this realize that gambling is not as bad as people think about it, but it is a space to connect and enjoy. The problem lies not in gambling itself but in the people who can’t control themselves. Those who can't handle it responsibly give gambling a bad name. But real gamblers know that gambling is a source of enjoyment for those who aren’t greedy for money. But those who are obsessed with winning often tarnish its image.

If we’re gamblers who can control ourselves and understand what we're doing, there shouldn’t be anything to criticize—only things to appreciate. What many don’t know is that gambling also supports charitable programs, benefiting countless people. Perhaps, it was very popular in our country.

I'm not a skeptic here, but this hotline really help gamblers though? Are there numbers that can really proved that there are individuals reaching to them and then they gave a sound and good advice. And the people on the other line, are they really professional and have the experience to give this kind of advise to those gambler who are seeking help, and most likely what to quit gambling for good? I would love to know that the real data and statistics though, and then maybe we can have our own conclusions and we can say straight that it's really very helpful to have this kind of programs.

Gambling is recreational, it can be used to improve your mindset and psychology level.. most gamblers just make it a habit of it and involve them self in excess gambling.. the program is a nice initiative as it will help some addicted gamblers cub their gambling addiction and let them try to take back control of it.  What they should know is that gambling is not a means to get rich quick and if anyone takes it that way they will only end up becoming broke due to excessive risk taking.

This is an interesting motivation that some are putting every necessary efforts altogether in seeing that others are also benefiting from the way they are gambling, some are actually giving it all it requires for us to have a better gambling experience, they are there to help, support, encourage and advise us on many ways we could actually be a successful gambling by playing safe, it will also helps the beginners in gambler to identify the way they should gamble and how they can manage the risk in doing so, having fun while gambling is never a crime, when we have an understanding of how this could be achieved without leaving behind any negative impact on us.

The thing with religion is that, religion helps us to be more aware of some negative things that eventually will affect the life of the one involved in them, and that is why most times some religion just banned an activities without any possible look at any other alternative usage of such a religion, and Muslim is one religion that have some negative look on gambling and most times the proceeds from gambling is considered to be haram in Muslim, so most Muslim countries around the world have strict laws against gambling and most times it's will be very ok if we stay off discoursing why and what should be expected from a religion.


gambling has alot of up and down and many who involved in it have run into some crisis that those leaders are trying to prevent it repeat, and at that a total banned of followers to gambling become the only option available.

While it is good publicity for gambling companies to promote these things, the reality is that they are trying to squeeze every player all the time in order to extract the highest value out of them. It does give the industry a little bit of cover when the government tries to crack down or there is a bit of public backlash, because they can sometimes become a target of the week for the media. While it is better than nothing and may have helped a few people, it is all a facade. The amount spent on this service in the form of donations is likely equivalent to a rounding error, think 0.02% of all of there profits each year, however it is better than some countries get when it comes to protecting gamblers so I guess we should be grateful.

The more casinos are becoming popular every day by day, it's also good that we are seeing more awareness programs and help lines for those who suffer from gambling addiction and stress.
 
This program might not completely eliminate addiction in people's minds, but it will help to reduce it and retrace the wrong step some people have taken in gambling. Gambling addiction is far more prevalent than just in the casino. The majority of the people that I know suffer from gambling addiction have one problem or the other that they face in reality. 

The reality most gamblers gambles recklessly,  these days gambling is taken as a means of taking risks to get rich, gamblers betting what they can't afford to loose and even with that, wining or losing never gives satisfaction... it  never satisfies its just how human are programmed and yes most people only realise they are not doing it the right way whenever they start going outside allocation funds and sorts, by then it's too late to curb (for most people) they just continue with the flow.

I love it when the society starts getting over irrational perceptions that is held against some concerns especially gambling which is mostly viewed as the call to uselessness. Gambling is healthy when treated with the right mindset, damages are caused by greed and over involvement into gambling which leads to addiction. These events are sorts of eye openers to people to disregard negative perceptions on gambling and view it as a recreational activity which is was designed to be.

Gambling is entirely large and lot of people always fall victim of addiction any many problems out there though we can actually accept the fact that this program starts to eliminate some form irregularities in gambling, but this not totally correct people or even make not to get addicted to gamble. In fact people don't know when they gets addicted to gambling and it could be very hard for people to maintain some atom of safe gambling because they are have this subconsciousness that they are above getting addicted to gambling but when they are gradually sinking into it they wouldn't know because it's about finance and profits.

If a person wants to steer clear of gambling, all he needs to understand mathematics. When he does, he'll see that there is not point in getting addicted because there is zero chances of winning in the long run. Again, that's if he keeps playing for a long time. I am not talking about making one lucky bet and hitting jackpot. If a person understands the math behind gambling and yet still wants to play, then that's his choice, nobody can do anything about it. Let him get poor as we need poor people too. If everybody drives a Lambo, what's the point of having a Lambo?

I wish campaigns like this can be taken to high schools and colleges where young children can really understand what problem gambling is all about. Some of these children have already been exposed to online gambling. Some of them have done lots of insane things just to raise money to gamble with. Some are addicted already.

While the campaign is focused on those struggling with gambling problems and a few adults, it will also be neccessary to reach out to these children in their schools so their gambling habit does not escalate to what they cannot control later. Moreover, it is way cheaper to help a gambler who is not yet addicted than helping someone who is already battling with addiction.

This campaign is the right thing to do. NGOs can take this up and ensure that this awareness is not something that only lasts a week, but something that is done more often to reach out to more people

And people will only learn their lessons when they already reached their limits and be in a tight position owed to his actions. This activity is not bad up until the player is going outside his allocated funds and resorting to other actions like borrowing money or selling family's properties just to finance his games. Also, you won't experience all the things that life can offer if you won't try things that you want to. And also, hard to give advice to anyone if you have no first-hand experience, it is like saying in empty words.

The importance of safe gambling cannot be overemphasized, a lot of gamblers get into trouble because they take too much risks that's far above their means. The awareness of safe gambling should be taught more than trying to force people to quit this lifestyle because it might be impossible. If you have been gambling wrecklessly it's time to make a change, take responsible risks only, gambling doesn't have a predictable outcome so I don't know why some people would be so driven to stake higher than what they can afford to lose.

Well like they say good luck with the project trying to make gambler's aware of best practices and responsible gambling in the first place. I know that most gamblers know what they need to do, know that they should limit their time in gambling and know that they should not overdo it. However it is not as easy as it sounds in gambling, people are human and blood pumps in their vein meaning they can make hot headed decisions regarding their activity and they can overdo it quite a lot, they get sadness and rage and this leads them to wrong decisions which will impact them for the worse. So I like this kind of campaigns although they need to be more present than just a week and be very persistent in what they do to promote safer gambling, this way the gambling community would benefit.

I agree with this. According to my findings in the past, I noticed that less than 6.5% of people are addicted in the world. Although according to the stat that I checked right now, the prevalence of problem gambling across the world ranges from 0.12% to 5.8% of people. People that are gambling and addicted can learn if they research for something like this because no other reason they are addicted than finding strategies to win money from the gambling sites but which its chance is nearly zero or nearly impossible in long term.

We all have freedom to do anything that we like with our money. We can use it on stupid things. But we should not use it on things that will affect our health or what can cause us depression. As long as you can afford to lose the money, not bad to use it to gamble.

people have spent money on far more stupid things/ways and nobody seems to see anything wrong with it, why should anyone see anything wrong with gambling?? It's up to you to decide what you wanna do with your funds.

I dunno if it's just me but, I really do like trying out new things and I feel for a fact, that's the best way to learn outta of this shit. Been on it and I still see alot of erroneously written threads/comments about a particular experience I've heard over time -- I'm wondering how it'd sound to me if I never had the idea prior to 'em posts.

For the majority of us, gambling poses no significant risk at all since we are fully aware about what we are doing and there is no risk of becoming addicted or anything like that, but for a minority of people out there, gambling can be quite dangerous, and it is important that they realize this truth and they decide to avoid gambling completely, because if they not to do so, then it is entirely possible they may get in trouble and ruin their life in the process.

You are both implying there is a psychological reason for someone to get addicted to gambling and also some genetic(?) reason why some individuals are more likely to suffer from it than others. I completely agree there are psychological characteristics which could easily push someone to perceive gambling as a way to cope with their personal problems, but I am not sure how far it goes when we talk about normal and sane people being genetically predisposed to fall victim of alcohol or gambling addiction. I have always seen problem gambling as a behavioral phenomenon instead a psycho-chemical one, because the chemist interactions and consequences are more obvious when we talk about alcohol and not gambling.
 

This a worthy information for every gamblers out there. This reminds us that gambling is not supposed to bring us harm and lead us into gambling addiction. With safer gambling tips and practices, which newbies would greatly benefit, this will aim to remind everyone that responsible gambling is a necessity, not to be disregarded or ignored. If you can’t be responsible on your money and gambling habits, it’s better not to enter gambling at all.

That balance has been the challenge most Gamblers actually gets to suffer all the times they try gambling, some actually even battle this for the longest but i believe with this program, there are chance they will be able to practice safe gambling and not get themselves in danger neither any one around them.

Gambling is something that would always be part of the worlds system, there are People that gamble for the purpose of having fun, eliminating gambling or trying to talk people out of it completely is an impossible task. Quitting gambling is a personal decision that only the individual can make. So instead of focusing on creating an awareness about getting people to quit, it should be based on safe gambling. Gambling is a risk it's always a 50/50 thing, so any amount of money that goes into your bet account should be something that you can afford to lose. Taking responsible risks can help you manage and control losses.

Apart from the approach, the biggest concern is the emotional display. The attitude people display after gambling is sometimes annoying. I wish every gambler would have full awareness of themselves after they gamble whether they lose or they win. Gambling won't be seen as bad as others who don't gamble see it.

To me I don't care about the intention for gambling what I care about is the anxiety, depressiveness, and other consequences of gambling which most gamblers are victims of.

I believe that is the essence of this campaign so that both gamblers and non-gamblers will be aware that gambling can be a safe activity.

When Jesus entered the Temple people were gambling and selling things and he asked them to stopped. Mathew 21:12-13 and also Holy Bible preached against get quick rich schemes and programmes. Many people are gambling to get rich but gambling is not for get rich scheme but for entertainment. And Core Christians against gambling because it is not a norm in the Bible and on earth. And the churches that normally against gambling is. Catholic Church, Orthodox Church,  and Pentecostal Churches.
And why they against gambling is because it creates many social vices like, stealing, addiction, neglect home responsibilities, anger issues whenever they loss big amounts of money, and others. And such orientation should be given to those gambling violators such that they'll be aware on the things to do in gambling.

Initiatives like this really helps to raise awareness to all gamblers that there's should be a safer way to gamble. Those that have been addicted might have no control over themselves but thanks to those who have been advocates of something like this to remind each of us that we need to gamble safely. So, if it's only a week maybe this is going to start from that and as time passes by we'll see the longer time that this safer gambling week will have to stay. And not just that, we can also initiate our own way of safer gambling whether it's for a week, or day or two or even a month or so and longer.

This is good. But I highly doubt many gamblers will participate in such an event. We all know how some gamblers are even afraid to tell others that they are gambling and others just want to keep it a secret to themselves by not allowing others to see them while gambling, just playing online gambling at home.

It's true that maybe a big part of the world population may be gambling each day but still I have not seen an initiative for safer gambling go viral and become popular for months or years. Call me pessimistic but that is how I see it. Although, it's nice to see that there are people who care about this problem and show passion to help. I hope for success for them.

religious organization that outrightly see gambling as evil look at it from such lenses because it has been written in their religious book that gambling is evil. because gambling is now a practice that the society can't do without, it's only best that proper sensitization is done so that people gambling would go about it the safe way safe way that wouldn't get them addicted.

solution does more good than criticism and that's one reason why this is not an initiative that should be condemned. if the money donated get used to organize a program that really gets to those that are at the verge of becoming addicted or that are already addicted and they are able to come out of addiction, its will go a long way to help the society. the reality is that a lot of people are addicted and gambles uncontrollably without knowing how to come out of it. as much as you are responsible enough to the extent you've not become addicted or the chances of getting addicted is very slim, others that aren't strong like yourself needs to be encouraged so they also know that its possible to gamble responsibly.

In my opinion, it is necessary to create internment centers for gambling addicts, it would be something similar to the existing centers for drug addicts. Because an addicted person needs to stay away from any device that accesses the internet and is capable of accessing a casino or gambling and also the person needs to stay away from physical casinos, so it is important that the person is isolated in a center that treats gambling addicts. I think that this is the only ideal way to cure gambling addicts. Of course, people could make donations of money to gambling addiction treatment clinics. I did not click on the link, but I have already advanced my point. Because what I have seen are websites that talk about gambling addictions. But this will not be of much help in combating addiction.

This mind of event should be done more often and in a consistent basis, because I only see this as a response to those who wants to completely eradicate the gambling activities. Well, we can't blame these people as we have all noticed how rampant gambling ads around the social media and all over the internet, so I think the balance that we're talking about is putting ads about responsible gambling and promoting it as much as these online casinos are doing ads simultaneously.

I did not fully understand your answer; do you agree with me or not. But if I add and say that people suffer from gambling addiction without any accompanying psychological problems, it will not be entirely true. Such people will also have a mental disorder for other reasons, the manifestation of which you may not quite notice, thinking that this person has a very stormy temperament or is characterized by some special behavior. However, such people will have the same chances of acquiring alcoholism and drug addiction, in addition to gambling addiction, with the difference in what kind of society such people can get into.
And again, those who have a healthy nervous system are not threatened by drug addiction, alcoholism, and of course gambling addiction, since people know how to control their emotions. It is hard to believe, but unfortunately, there are very few completely psychologically healthy people in our time. Childhood traumas leave a big mark on life, which, if necessary, is removed by psychologists.

It's great to see the industry promoting responsible gambling practices.

Responsible gambling, when done in moderation and with self-awareness, can indeed be a form of entertainment. It’s when people lose that balance, chasing big wins or using gambling as an escape, that things can take a dangerous turn.

Gambling itself isn't inherently bad. It's all about having the right approach, keeping things fun and setting limits are key.

It’s all about finding that balance between enjoyment and responsibility, and fostering a culture where people can enjoy gambling safely without it leading to harm. Thanks for bringing this up, initiatives like this really do make a difference!

This is very commendable and something that, even though it may not record massive success in the very first week of promotion, the next time such an event comes up, it will have a greater effect than the former. I imagine and wish that such an event is carried out in every country in the world because there are some countries in the world where there is worse stigma against gambling and gamblers.

Maybe other gambling-related bodies with a goal of promoting responsible gambling can replicate this action and the way the BGC operates, which is by having members who carry around the proper ethics of gambling and preach responsible gambling, or the BGC can aim to become global.

Irresponsible gambling is becoming a thing; this is a suitable action against it.

This is actually a nice idea because there's a lot of gamblers who needs the knowledge of responsible gambling habits and also those that needs to be aware that gambling is not an enemy unless they make it becomes their idle.

I love this program. It reminds me of the industry that produces cigarettes and clearly stated by WHO that "smokers are liable to die young".
That initiative was just to remind smokers about the health effects that you should smoke responsibly and concious of your health. The who knew the effect but could not ban cigarettes.

Here about about industry, a lot of non gamblers has always seen gambling to be an immoral activities that is potential to ruin players life based on addictions.
Meanwhile... They fail to understand that it is gamblers responsibilities to decide on their manner of gambling specifically that it does not affect their health and of course their bankrolls.

So I am literally grateful that such program to speculate awareness on reminding us that even the developers and the jurisdictions surrounding gambling recommends gambling for positive impacts such as those gamming for funs and profits.

However, it is obvious that the anxieties of gambling is potential to ruin players who are not taken adequate responsibilities of themselves including their bankrolls so, I believe this concept would remind us and as much promote responsible gambling to every attendees of this program that you owe yourself the conduct and the outcome of your gambling life. Hence, gambling is not an immoral activities.

Bravo to the team. I am a fan of advocating for safer gambling.

I have always advocated that this awareness campaign should not stop only on social media but should be carried out also offline. On our part, we should take it to schools, parks, churches, libraries, airports and everywhere. And even though I applaud it when civil societies spearhead it, it doesn't stop private citizens from playing their own role.

And with the current increase in gambling and its addiction, it would be a nice development for us to have it in countries all over the world rather than just United Kingdom and Ireland.

There’s definitely some prejudice against gambling addicts because people probably think that you can control gambling and if you can’t you are just a reckless gambler. But some really do suffer from mental disorders that is related to their incapacity of controlling their gambling habits.

Gambling is an addiction as much as any other else.

It’s fine to have your own beliefs but you shouldn’t impose this to anyone.

Let others have their own beliefs and be able to live the kind of life they want to live. I do know religious people who are respectful enough not to be condescending to anyone they encounter that is into gambling as long as they do not share the same religion. It will be a lot different if YOUR religion prohibits gambling and you don’t follow it. So, as long as you are not part of a community where this is prohibited why shouldn’t you gamble if you really want to? We just need to control ourselves and make smart decisions.

It is generally accepted that gambling addiction is very similar in psychological terms to alcohol addiction, the treatment of which includes the same method. But healthy people always understand that alcohol cannot be evil if consumed in normal quantities, just as it is necessary to understand that the danger that many people talk about in gambling will only be for a certain circle of people. Therefore, there is no need to equate under one line, calling evil what healthy people call ordinary entertainment, but those people who have psychological problems are better off keeping their distance from this type of entertainment until they cure the underlying cause, so as not to treat the effect.

I do not see anything wrong for the religions that consider gambling as something that is not good. It is religion. They will not just be the conclusion without no reason but it would be as a result of the bad situation that some people that they know has gone through like losing huge amount of money to gambling. It is people that should think about it themselves that they should use the money that they can afford to lose to gamble. No religion that supports gambling in the world despite that some like Christianity do not against it. I am not saying gambling is not good but religion is religion.

Sorry, my bad! Slipped my mind but it is now edited.

Sharing this in all platforms would be very helpful and I am sure there are ways for us to help aside from just spreading awareness like maybe sharing a donation and/or volunteering.

However, just spreading awareness alone can make such a huge impact already.
It’s greed and selfishness that kills us. Not gambling itself. If we can control ourselves with gambling, it can be nothing but something entertaining and enjoyable.

Some religious organizations see gambling as evil because they have failed to also consider some of the benefits of the activity. There is nothing harmful in gambling especially if it is done responsibly. This project is not a bad idea because it would help to enlighten the public about gambling and also guide people on how to gamble responsibly. I am also pleased that it is a period to donate to charity so that people who need help will have access to it. It will be a pleasure to donate to any charity that supports such a program in my location.

This is a very important information which you should not only quote without adding the link. Please add the link.

This is good.  It is good to see this kind of events. Gambling is not something bad. It is the approach that some people use that makes it bad. If you are gambling just for fun or using little amount of money to look for little amount of money, gambling is fun. The problem can only start when you are using high amount of money to gamble because you are looking for high returns.

So far it is a charitable contribution towards treating and reaching out to those strongling with gambling-related issues, and the reason why there have been so many stereotypes about gambling and its related activities, although there is a need to balance the equation and also reach a base ground that shift focus on what people thinks about gambling and its related issues such as addictions and the rest, so for that, have a promotion that helps improve gambler's well being tha put them afar from all the negatives attributes of gambling and how to keep avoiding them.

This move is quite a good one because creating awareness and support that he lot of gamblers to come out and stay away from those gambling issues like addictions because it's when you become uncontrollable in your gambling journey, it means that eventually will be diving into addictions and debts, so there is need to avoid such negative things to happen in the first and which is where this promotion becomes so very necessary.

This project was initiated by the Betting and Gambling Council to spread awareness about gambling and promote sustainable and responsible gambling practices. This initiative lasts for a whole week and is focused in gaining as much attention as possible.

This is very important because those who see gambling as something dangerous want to completely write off gambling but there should be a balance here. We can recognize the risks of gambling and eliminate them by making sure we are responsible and accountable of our actions. This way we can gamble without putting ourselves or anyone into harm’s way.
