The argument they provide is as follow, ''we are entertainers/performers''. This need to be stopped. I am creating this thread to discuss such issues and to warn other new comers about the potential loss. If you have found such streamers please post here so that it can be helpful for new players to make realistic decisions.

Seriously?

Arent these things are part of a marketing strategy and this is the most common or known where advertisers or streamers out there been paid up to promote such site and obviously
using up sponsored money by the house itself?This had been known and been obvious.Why would talking about stopping it? What for?

These arent illegal things for you to mandate that it should be stopped.Yes, its deceptive but as a viewer you can eventually tell that its not their money.

Also, you do have the will neither you do play or not if you do find it out.Its their money and its none of our business if they would tend to play or not once they do saw those gameplay.

If people can't recognize that this filthy means are being used as a hook to fool noobs into losing their money I don't think there can be to be done.
Remember the saying a fool and his money are soon parted. I believe it can be considered like a market force that allows dumb people to lose their money in favor of those who are smarter. It may sounds harsh but that's the reality.

Cashback 15%

You can call it rigged since they are making it look like the game will magically make you win once you hit a certain loss threshold on your bankroll. After all, these guys are just also paid to promote a platform or a service, and are oftentimes given a script or the possible outcome of the events on their advertisement. If you feel like you are cheated by such adverts, you better look at the way how other restaurants advertise their food on a commercial. They use the same tactic in essence, so I don't think it's something new anymore. Also, at the end of the day, the player has the decision to play on that certain platform being advertised or not. I'm pretty sure not all of us base our luck on the luck of others, and would not immediately play in that platform just because some dude streaming online won hundreds of thousands in a single roll.

Each person has the right to be the way they are, if they want to be sensationalist it is their way of being, if they do not want to share anything too, I have seen many cases where the bets are very large and not all the time they win, many high rollers lose too, that It is normal, it is in the statistics, this is not technical, it is luck at 1000%, this is the great thing about gambling.

Such kind of strategy is not something new in this industry, lots of streamers who have enough large audiences already did it

Very few of them write in their stream discerption about rolling with fake money (or money of which they can only cash out like 1%).

When you found streamers who not state clearly the money they are used for (sponsored or their own money) it's better to ignore them and do your gambling habit as usual. Besides that, there is no one force you to watch them.

pretty similar to this thread Fake bets the only difference is that the thread I shared is talking about Roobet's sponsored bets from a streamer. I suggest reading the thread you might find what the community thinks about this immoral marketing strategy.

Almost all of them scream loudly and show us that they are winning it in real, some are very good at faking it,

I've read somewhere(maybe a post from the thread I shared or maybe from an article) that these streamers get a commission or a percentage of the winning they won from the sponsored money they got from the company. what I am saying is there might be a valid reason why they're that happy.

Why do you care? Are they forcing you to wager your money? Did they put a gun on your head? No. Whoever is falling for that scam and wagers more that he could afford to lose deserves to lose that money.

I bet most of the high rollers you see in the casino scoreboards are fakes. (maybe all of them)

Some of you guys must have watched high stake slot players in their pajamas rolling thousands of dollars in single spin, buying hundred of thousands worth of bonus spins. If you notice closely yo will found the same pattern all over again and again. They start with loosing most of their bank roll (almost 80-90%), and then going all in at last and guess what, bingo!!! they hit hundreds of thousands of dollars. Very few of them write in their stream discerption about rolling with fake money (or money of which they can only cash out like 1%). Almost all of them scream loudly and show us that they are winning it in real, some are very good at faking it, which attracts lots of new gamblers (with false expectations) and they end up loosing it all which ultimately leads to social disharmony.
