Topic: What are the consequences of online casino games? (Read 665 times)

One consequence of online gambling that I can think of is easy accessibility, you can be anywhere at anytime and start gambling through your mobile phone. If you want to visit a physical casino, you need to plan for it, sometimes when it's time to go out to gamble, you might become tired or something else can happen to make you change your mind. So because of the easy accessibility to online gambling, you might devote more time to it than necessary, which can lead to addiction. But if someone can control the urge to over gamble, then online gambling can be beneficial to the person, he can relax and have fun while engaging in it .

In my opinion, whatever form of gambling both offline gambling and online gambling, equally has a huge risk in finances and also our psychological stability if we have been stuck with addiction, the story that you share about someone who lost more than $5000 in a short period of time, is certainly an example of a small fraction of the risk that we can get in gambling,even it shows how quickly losses can accumulate when one tries to catch up with their previous defeats.

To be honest, I personally also experienced the same story, but the difference is that I have won quite a lot in a slot game, but thinking to be able to win even bigger so that I finally losing the winning, that's why I always emphasize the importance of always playing wisely and setting limits in gambling in every post I have been posting so far.

do you gamble offline? if yes, then the same sense of joy, satisfaction or excitement that comes with that is what's also associated with online gambling. everyone gamble for some reasons that's best known to them but basically, the reason for gambling is primarily because of the fun that's associated with it and then the pay that comes with winning bets has now almost taken the place of the fun such that people are more interested in winning bets rather than having the fun that's associate to gambling.

if you are gambling because you want to make your life more successful. it means that you are gambling for the wrong reason and the obvious end product will be gambling addiction or you might end up being bankrupt. moderation is key in every thing we do and gambling is not an exception. there are people that have wrecked there lives through gambling and there are others that have had a turning point in their lives because of the jackpot they have won, at the end, you just have to make use of your head and ensure you don't gamble irresponsibly or else, the consequences of gambling wrongly will tell on you.

First of all, what is the background for you to decide to make this post, and what makes you think about the success, destruction, or consequences of gambling. whatever it is, whether land-based or online, the point is the same related to betting and gambling. I used to think that gambling was easy and could generate income. but slowly my understanding changed, gambling is more free to play on the basis of a hobby or fun entertainment. if you have thoughts or seek success from gambling, then you will often be involved in problems and pressure. because, in gambling nothing is certain and everything is very much related to luck. even though you like to gamble by involving skills, thinking, strategy and the like, in the end luck is involved in what is called betting or gambling. we all must have different perspectives related to gambling, whether online or land-based. I just want to say like other members in general, gamble only as part of entertainment and use funds that you can afford to lose. if you lose, stop or divert to something else and we can come back another time. that way, at least we will not be stressed and think we can recover the defeat. but it is not easy for people who are easily involved in emotions, that's why self-control is an idea that must be involved for gamblers like us.

Addiction is like the end result that will definitely happen to everyone who gambles, this is a big possibility that will happen later, whether they gamble for fun or for profit. Gambling itself can actually make us addicted, but the key is certainly in ourselves, if we ourselves can restrain ourselves from getting addicted, then the risk of addiction will not occur, but it cannot be denied that addiction is like a spice that must be present in gambling, only a few people can restrain themselves from getting addicted periodically.

People who are not ready to lose the money they bet are people who can experience great losses, because with behavior that is not ready to lose it can make them continue to want to recover the losses that previously occurred, if their thinking is like this, then what will happen is impulsive behavior that continues to occur, and sometimes, for example, if they have succeeded in getting a win, they still can't stop doing it.

He may have been too eager to increase his bet money quickly, which is why his losses increased. He used the Martingale method as a strategy. He may have thought that if he could win once, he would recover all his money. But the result was the opposite, and he had to lose all his money. It is certain that he was addicted to gambling. He must have needed to take a break because of his repeated losses, but he did not. I can firmly say that if he had 10 instead of 5K, he would have lost the same. That is why it is necessary to learn to control himself. Those who cannot control themselves in gambling will never be able to achieve their goals by gambling. However, the purpose of gambling should never be taken as a source of income.

Too much of a thing is never good. If you try to go to gambling for everything that you do and think that its going to be your saving grace 9 times out of 10 you will lose that bet! Don't let this be your end all be all. Can you find success in gambling? Sometimes? Are your odds of finding success in gambling great? NO! Find the sure thing pal. One bird in hand is better than two in the bush.

To have a healthy life and think reason like others you shouldn't place your priority dependently only in gambling because I have seen many which has ruined their lives because of relying solely on making profit from gambling. Most the people whom you see today that are facing all manner of mental challenges are being caused by either gambling or excessive consumption of hard drugs leading to gambling, its better to have your efforts focused on something more productive to give you much profits that solely relying on gambling to make a living and also try your possible best to always see gambling as just to have fun and not a place for futuristic fortune.

The answer to your question is No, you can't make your life more successful through gambling and mostly over dependent and consistent gambling habits leads one to destruction, depression, losses and many more and hence the importance of gambling are versatile but people tend to abuse it's benefits for the reverse, but then gambling is for relaxation and fun and sometimes a stress anxiety antidote.

Achieving financial success in life through gambling is really not that guaranteed as the rate of going bankrupt is extremely greater than any success thay can be said to have been recorded in this regard.

As gamblers, success in gambling is a random phenomenon that comes with luck and not per how much of a strategy or efforts exerted. The ripple effect of wrong approach towards gambling is usually of one that leads to self-destruction mainly through addiction that may be develop in the quest to achieving some supposed success.

I think the importance of online gambling are many but I'll underscore just a few that come into mind at the moment, which are:
There is convenience that comes with gambling online, you don't get to worry about certain improper behaviours of some strangers you may come across in some on-land gambling house.
Secondly, there's this privacy for those that seem not to let out their gambling life to the public knowledge or to friends and family. They can always privately enjoy their gambling time only without any disturbance. Etc.

This could be just another topic about the harm caused by games, but you started the OP very well... giving us the opportunity to talk about the benefits of games, something that very few people talk about but that if you think about it, there are several very relevant factors...

I will mention 5 benefits linked to mental health that gambling promotes:

• Stress Relief
  Playing online games can be a great way to relax and relieve the stress of everyday life. The experience in a virtual world can help people temporarily escape from worries and doubts, providing a sense of relaxation.
  
• Improved Concentration and Focus
  Many online games require strategic judgment and attention to detail. Playing these games can improve concentration and focus, since players need to keep track of information, perform complex tasks and make quick decisions.
  
• Virtual Socialization
  Online games often involve interaction with other players, whether through text or voice chat. This can help to ease loneliness and promote socialization, even if it’s only virtual. Having a community of like-minded gamers can be comforting.
  
• Developing Cognitive Skills
  Many online games involve puzzles, problem-solving and strategy, which can stimulate the brain and improve cognitive skills. These include skills such as logical thinking, decision-making, motor cooperation and problem-solving.
  
• Sense of Accomplishment
  Completing missions, achieving goals and progressing in an online game can create a sense of accomplishment and self-esteem. This can be particularly beneficial for people facing real-life challenges, as they can experience success and overcoming obstacles in the virtual world.
  

However, it’s important to remember that balance is key. Excessive time spent gaming can also have a negative effect on mental health, and lead to issues such as social isolation, anxiety and depression. Therefore, it’s important to play in moderation and be aware of the impact that gaming can have on your life.

There's no definite answer to the questions, the outcome of our gambling activity depends on us and not what the definition of online gambling is. You determine if you're going to be victorious or among the many people losing money always when gambling. Before you start gambling you have to be sure of what you want to achieve from gambling. Are you gambling for entertainment or gambling because you're broke and you're looking for ways of making money. Gambling can destroy your life and make it miserable and it can also make your life full of smiles because of the payout that you get from your victory. The consequences of gambling online is that you don't have a limit to how long you're going to gamble and this can lead to addiction that's why you have to be incharge of the decision that you take when gambling and not allow the games to control you and making you to lose money.

It can lead your life into destruction if you don't know how to control yourself through it.

Many points can be made about the importance and relevance of gambling. But from the many, this is one of them.

You'll understand the importance of how valuable your money is. Because when it is there, you won't value its worth but when it's gone and you've lost it through gambling excessively, you'll understand the importance I am saying.

Gambling isnt bad as long you do make yourself that being responsible in towards into your actions then there would really be no issued but on the time or moment that you do find yourself having those kind of probabilities that you might be ending up on being addicted then this is where problems would really be starting up to raise up. Therefore, it will really be that just recommended that you do really know into the things that you are really that dealing into. If you do play or engage with gambling then better not to have that kind of impulsive approach into it and always having that moderation.

You would really be that living in a miserable life on the time or moment that you do make out such actions towards gambling. Gamble for fun and not for money
then you should really be just that fine.

Gamblers that are extremely lucky are the people that become successful through the help of gambling, winning from gamble is not guaranteed that and many gamblers have already become addicted to gamble because of greed. So it's wise to risk what you can afford to lose so that even though you are not lucky, you will not chase your lose and still ended up as an addicted gambler.

If this is as serious as this your comment makes me think or believe this is, then you really have to stand up and find a way around this, get yourself free from any form of gambling addiction before it completely destroys you..

One way to begin is by gambling solely for fun, you don't have to play for money all the time, like myself, I realized that when ever I gamble with the expectation of winning money, and I end up loosing instead, it messes me up, I gets angry at everyone and everything, I get frustrated, the thought of what better I would or should have used that lost money for will haunt me (sometimes) more than a week or more depending on the amount of money involved   this wasnt good for my mental health, and to put an end to it, I started to learn to gamble just to have fun with no expectation of profit whatsoever in my mind, and today, I enjoy gambling like never before..

I wish you all the best bud, and hope you get over this for good.

The answer is yes, it is possible to be successful, but if we look at the results, most people are destroyed because of gambling, instead of pursuing success, they are the ones who go bankrupt, so don't expect too much success from gambling, it's better to use it for your own entertainment.

The consequences of online gambling are enormous but one of the major effects that come with it is the addictiveness. Casino games can be really addictive especially when you are playing online. I remember someone that lost more than 5k dollars playing a slot game online. He was chasing his losses by doubling his bets after every loss, he ended up losing everything he had in his account. Online casino games are dangerous and if you get obsessed with These games you will definitely have financial issues, Always remember to Play safe.

On the contrary, gambling is a good means of earning money just that it is not predictable when you will make the money. The only problem I notice with gamblers is that we are eager to win money from a particular game instead of aiming series of games because gambling is a thing of probability. For instance, instead of concentrating all your resources on a particular bet, it is wiser to look at winning a good number of bets from many bets where you will distribute your resources evenly, this will make you not to lose all your resources on a single bad bet.

Every gambler certainly has their own experience in the world of gambling and from what I see it seems that from the start you have the wrong perspective on gambling and also most likely you do not know about the concept of gambling so that it makes it difficult for you to become a responsible gambler where you always experience pressure, regret and stress every time you experience defeat, your biggest mistake is that you did not understand from the start that gambling is not a place to generate victory, but with the bad experience you have I think it should be enough to make you understand that the possibility of defeat will always be part of the game until whenever you are involved.

My advice now is to try to busy yourself with various other activities that you have, or maybe adding new activities is also better, the goal is to divert your mind from gambling or from previous defeats that you have experienced.

We should not have the mentality that gambling is going to make us rich when the casino we are always using are expecting to make huge amounts of money from us as we keep playing on their casinos. Nothing is balanced here, casino is a private enterprise that is built for profit making but having that mentality that casino is going to make us rich is a big lie. It is very rare for people to hit the jackpot that will change their lives. We can be making consistent profits from gambling but we should never see it as an alternative to get rich quickly. For people that have that kind of mentality, then the should be ready for the consequences if things go wrong or the opposite direction.

Sharing my own experience about online casino and gambling, it causes me mental health issues like stress, anxiety and feeling down after losses. Sometimes I can’t stop thinking about about how or ways to recover my losses, which only makes things worse. Losing money has added pressure on and affected my relationships especially in my own family. I’m trying to set limits now to manage this better but I can't. I'm posting this because I thing it can help me atleast minimize my gambling addiction.

Well, making our life successfully financially through gambling is solely in the hands of luck, it's not really in our hands to decide, for if it was, every gambler out there did be a multi-billionaire in dollars because I believe that no one wants to be a poor gambler..

But on the other hand and to your next question, leading a life of destruction through gambling completely depends on our main purpose of gambling, and how we go about the activity, going about gambling in the wrong way will definitely lead to a very sad ending for most unlucky gamblers.

And away from that, there are no other known importance of online gambling aside just having fun, making oneself happy with playing games the person loves to play..
Some organizations may use online gambling as a way to raise funds for important projects, but then, the end result is that, people are happy and having fun..

Do you have the idea that gambling is a job that is completely based on luck? Now you only tell yourself, How can you make a living from something where luck is involved? The money is not guaranteed every time. In such a situation, how will you live your life depending on gambling and pay bills? Now regarding the destruction part, then it completely depends on your action. I meant whether you gamble in a controlled environment or not, that will tell how gambling will lead to you.

Not winning or getting desireable results is still not that big of an issue, a bigger issue is constantly losing and still gambling which would make you lose way more money than you would want to spend on your gambling activities and if that continues, it can make you reach a concerning end in your life. So whenever someone gambles, if they are gambling for profits, they need to make sure they are not overdoing it because there is no point in doing that.

Many people chase their losses with the hope that they might recover them and hence lose no money in gambling but they don't understand that gambling is designed in a way that wouldn't allow a player to stay ahead in the long run if they don't stop at the right time.

You are taking these to two extremes that almost no one reaches, very few people achieve their dreams while gambling, and the number of people that ruin their lives because of gambling is very low as well, the majority of us will simply enjoy gambling for what it is, and while it is true we will lose some money, it is not going to be enough to cause some sort of crisis in our lives, so all in all gambling is of relatively no importance in our lives.

I doubt that there is much of a consequence if one decides to gamble online rather than offline because for one, gambling online is more of a private affair and one can be free to use any amount they wants and bet on as much games as possible without being told to take it easy or slow down.
Besides the addiction, cost of relationships, cost of time, debt crisis and financial instability that comes as a negative consequence of excessive gambling, where one has more discipline with gambling and follows a strict budget as much as they keep their gambling activities a secret, and only do so on breaks occasionally, I doubt that there would be more devastating consequences other than joy.

You can't rely on the winnings from betting to live your life and ones who chose to do it way simply choosing their life in the path of destruction. Gambling is for fun factor that we all are living in a hectic life so as long as we keep it in a limit which is a good thing but it's not the entire life and shouldn't be.

Online gambling just gave access to everyone on this planet because it's not possible to have a casino on every city and every small towns but people now can access and experience it.

Op you should understand that gambling is what it's, so asking if people can be more success in gambling, is like asking if people can be successful through something they are uncertain about, can't control or knows not the outcome but in real sense anything is possible but no guarantee, gambling is an unforseen circumstances as such no one should be depending on it for their success, for me I see gambling as an avenue to try luck not having in mind that making money through it, is certain.

I think some people chose gambling online for many reasons, when you go to shops to gamble, there is possibility of problem escalating their though the problem may not necessarily come from you but other gamblers may escalate it due to argument or whatever and noise too, some people don't like a noisy environment and because of that they chose to do things privately without being involved with the public, so the imprtance of gambling online ranges from different individual gamblers, for me I choose gambling online because of privacy, sometimes people won't even know that you're gambling and most importantly because of how unsafe some society is right now, if you eventually win a huge amount of money, it will remain a secret to avoid putting yourself at risk and aalos gambling online is very convenient.

Exactly! If gamblers can have that skills then we might not see many casinos all over both offline and online, they might not open any business as gamblers will use them as a feeding place and they will just suck up their bankroll, but the opposites happen, as casino owners see big oppprtunities as addiction has been triggered especially when the access for gambling is not that hard anymore, the use of online access brings gambling to everyone that have internet connections.

For gambling owners, online service gives them advantage to reach more people to use their services and platforms while for gambler/player the risk increase as they can easily deposit their money to tap up and add more for their bankroll.

If there is a way to become successful in gambling as a player, we will not see gamblers losing everything and many casinos shutting down.
The fact is, casinos are a lucrative business because they have an advantage over the players, and gambling addiction is a way to self-destruction, which is why we have so many warnings about gambling addiction.

Your approach will to a very large extent determine the consequences it's going to get on you, it's usually a two way thing and that's why you get to see people successful at gambling while others don't.

These set of person have got their different approaches that leads to the results they get, so there are another threads on this board that addresses ways and strategies to use if you must stay successful gambling but it's not a guarantee but could help a whole lot so make sure to be on the best approach possible and you will have a personal experience probably different from that others are getting.

From a players' perspective, it's so rare to achieve success; from the gambling operator's perspective, yes, it's possible subject to the gambling operator's level of experience in running a casino.
There are countless stories of people who get their lives ruined by gambling, and this is a proven fact.
It becomes important if the players that are playing play here for entertainment besides the income it generates for casinos' workers.

The thing is that only a very small number of players will be able to win large sums of money, who will just get lucky and no one knows who exactly. That's the whole point, that everyone thinks that they will be lucky. And the stronger the belief in their victory, the more money the player is ready to leave there, sometimes even almost all the money. Of course, it is difficult to stop when you think that life will change for the better in an instant, but this does not happen and it rolls in the opposite direction. All this can have a detrimental effect on our psychological state and ultimately drive us into depression. Therefore, I consciously learned to stop myself at the right moment, because I know what happens if you do not do this.

The consequences that can occur if we gamble are losing money, losing self-control and even losing common sense.

Someone who gambles excessively will experience serious problems with the gambling they do, the consequences or impacts may not happen if we gamble healthily, but the consequences of losing money are something that is certain to happen and difficult to avoid.

In addition, I think no one can carve out a career in gambling just as a player, no one can be successful in a career by gambling, because gambling itself is a business that is built to seek profit and even though there is a chance to win big I think it rarely happens let alone a victory that can change life circumstances for the better.

Asking if we can become successful through online gambling is just like telling or asking a 3 year old baby to make a delicious meal for you. Hope they don't cook their self on the process of making the meal. Lol, you would say it's a funny or wired example but yeah, gambling does not produce accurate results all the time. There are so many people who have been gambling for a decade but yet gambling didn't make their life better. So, it only luck that can enable someone make successful through gambling and that can only happen if the person luckily win a huge amount and used the money to invest in himself.

No doubt for that because those who playing gambling can forget how to take care themselves especially when they get the fun from gambling. So rather than thinking about achieve success in gambling, they better just to playing gambling to have fun so that will not affect them to playing gambling excessively.

If they can not treat gambling properly, they will trapped in gambling without seeing a way out from gambling. Their minds will see that gambling can gives pleasure to them so they will not leave it whether they can win or lose. That will be bad for them because sooner or later, they can becomes addicted to gambling and if they are not realize immediately, they will not have a chance to cure themselves.

Limiting to playing gambling in online or offline will be necessary because that will prevents them from excessively. They must know that gambling is just for fun so they can reduce the consequences of losing their money.

Gambling can be a dangerous trap if not done wisely especially if we have the mindset to achieve success in a gamble, Many people are trapped in a cycle of addiction and have suffered significant financial losses during this time just by following their greed, but gambling can actually be an entertaining activity if we can limit the time and frequency in gambling so far, So limits and also regulates the time in playing indeed it will be a very wise step to prevent addiction from occurring, I think online and offline gambling have the same risk of loss if indeed we do not have control in every game we play.

I through a lot in gambling freen, recently I just around 600 USD my last money that I been built up like from this year grind from the signature campaign I just lost it all  Well its sad I know how the feel of win and loses. so if you ask me What are the consequences of online casino games? If you win just withdraw your money and thats it. Its all about luck and nothing more.

Yes you can successfull if you like the luckiest person on earth but if you dont surely it easily to destroy your life.

Online or offline, gambling is gambling.

Only you can make a difference here. If you were to approach gambling with recklessness and irresponsibility then you should expect that you are going to have your life destroyed. At the same time, saying you can make your life more successful through gambling can also be too much. You shouldn’t really expect to end up incredibly wealthy just by gambling because if you have this mindset you might make irrational decisions.
Many. One being the convenience it gives. It is now a lot accessible to a lot of people. Second is it gives us the chance to use crypto which allows us privacy and ease of transaction.

The most dangerous thing I have ever encountered in my life is gambling addiction. It has become the cause of many of my troubles and misfortunes. I stubbornly refused to notice the fact that I had fallen into a deep hole from which it is very difficult to get out. Until it came to a complete collapse in my finances, I could not stop, continuing to play every day. As soon as I started receiving notifications and calls from the bank to pay off the loan, I began to realize that this could not continue. I stopped, but it was too late. I had to spend many years in almost total poverty, since all the money went to pay off debts. I do not wish this path on anyone.

No, because in reality gambling is just for fun and not a way to success unless you have luck with the money you bet with a big double chance but it is very risky.

Depending on your level of gambling if you gamble continuously and always experience defeat then you will be heading for destruction.

There are few people who have been successful in the world of gambling, I am talking about financial success. If you are thinking of making a lot of money through gambling, then you have to be aware that it will not be an easy task, the chances of you losing more than winning are high. However, gambling is a form of entertainment and at this point it can very well be of great help when you are bored in your free time, you can play and have fun and your boredom would end.


In short: it allows the largest number of people to play. Most people don't have a car or a lot of money to go and play every day at physical casinos. But they have a phone where they can access online casinos and play for little money.

Basically, gambling is a way to get entertainment. So, I think it is wrong to think that gambling is a way to make a successful life. Maybe there are people who have abundant wealth because of gambling, but that doesn't mean they are successful, it's just because they are lucky, and luck is the factor, and this is very difficult. If you have the desire to gamble, then just play, but if you are unlucky, you need to limit yourself and think that perhaps you are indeed unlucky, and there is no need to pursue luck greedily. So the important point is, you need to have a good mindset when gambling, especially for self-limitation and responsibility.

Maybe that will not happen to most people and only for some lucky people because gambling is not a way to get success. You will face more losses if you push yourself to try playing gambling without think about the thing that can happen to you. The online gambling is like offline gambling which we don't have to play gambling too often and always limits our gambling time.

That will help us to prevent the losses and although we are not success through gambling, we still save ourselves from the gambling addiction.

If the gambling industry exists and has existed for a very long time, then we can assume that it satisfies some basic human needs, right? After all, if games had only a negative side, sooner or later the industry would have died. We know how many opponents of gambling there are in the world.
   But games based entirely on luck are not designed to make money, you need to understand this. Sports betting can be considered as a source of long-term profit, but few people will succeed. Most likely, there are less than 1% of successful long-distance players in predictive betting. But someone says that successful players are less than 0.01%.

First of all, what is our role in online gambling, if we are gambler then it is clear that we will not get any success and what is certain is that we will get setbacks and also financial ruin if there is no responsible attitude and ability to control ourselves, but if we use it with the aim of making money such as for example we become an affiliate and also streamer then clearly there are various benefits that we can get and this can be an income, but not everyone can do it.

For gambler himself, like me personally, I consider online gambling as place to entertain myself, this will allow us to relieve fatigue and also boredom with certain conditions due to living daily life full of busyness, whether it work or business.
It will indeed cost some money but it will be worth it if we consider it as payment to buy pleasure and entertainment.

The easiest answer is to think about gambling anywhere without going to any physical casino anymore and it is being cashless. So if you are a person don't like to travel and go to some physical places and play with other people, online casino is best for you, where you can play anywhere even in your home. It's like being convenient.

Every person has their own perspectives towards online gambling not just casino but also for other gaming like sports betting. However, other ideas won't fit for what the standard and norms of other people. Some may cause negative comments and opinions, but for sure if you're going to engage with gambling in an irresponsible ways, you'll be ending up you life in miserable situation and literally destructive nature.

Gambling is not designed to make everyone successful. Becoming successful depend upon anyone who predict rightly. The chances of becoming successful in gambling is 1/99.  meaning you may nearly or even give up on gambling before winning a decent amount or may not even win atol. The 1/99 may come in different forms which means your first time of betting may end up being nice by winning huge and the remaining 99% of gambling may turn void after winning the first amount. While some in the other hand will lose %99 and become successful in the last %1. Some may never even be successful even id you gave them %100 chance.

Online gambling is more relaxing, more convenient, less stressful, more comparable and more private than offline gambling. In online gambling if you win huge no one will know the outcome, and you are safe with your winning but in offline your winning is like a lottery win that is announced openly to everyone. and that makes you uncomfortable to many people around you including your friends and relatives.

As said, there'll be an edge for the house. This keeps the house on the profit, unlike the win and loss of the events. Apart from this, anywhere access lets people gamble in a very casual manner. In the past, people needed to reach specific regions to gamble. Extremely addicted persons used to travel and gamble, whereas the majority just focused on something else, keeping in mind the travel and time. The advertisement and streamers easily attract the young generation and make them give it a try. Once they've entered, it isn't an easy thing to get out of gambling.

You can't really say that changing the mode of your game - whether online or offline, will change the fate of your gambling activities. Both are subjected to the luck factor of most casino games. Hence, you should not expect that the outcome will favor on you when you switch to online mode.

There's really no difference between playing online and playing in a physical casino; you will get the same results because the house always wins. The consequences I can think of is that you can easily get addicted to playing online because of easy access, you have money, and you can play anywhere at anytime.
And about the importance of online gambling, they are employing people online, and they are giving entertainment and a chance for people to make money anywhere anytime they want.

Gambling gives access to everyone, even the underage. Every country has certain age limits to participate in gambling activities, which start at 16 years old in some countries, and in some countries it is 18+ years of age. With online gambling, the underage kids just enter the term that they are 16+ and 18+ years of age. In some platforms, KYC is mandatory, whereas in the majority it is possible to spend without KYC. This is really bad, as the kids get affected badly. During the teenage years, they used to have more needs, and the minds used to be thinking of different things. Many ruin their lives gambling with their tuition fee and all.

It seems you’re trying to create a comparison, if not for the sake of comparison i don’t see any reason we should list the benefit associated with online gambling. Well I guess you’re asking out of curiosity, when it comes to benefit I consider every gambling site as equal either online, just don’t find any special benefit attached it’s either you gamble for the money or fun and it has led a lot of people making favoritism with false hope meanwhile If you fail to gamble proper the end result is destruction, just being honest online gambling seems more relaxing but in terms of money there’s no guarantee benefit.

Importance? Success? It's gambling. Unless you are the business owner of the online casino then there's no such thing as success in it. Online gambling is just something you do for leisure. To have fun. I think most online casinos have that motto on the first page of their website or application because they are somehow telling people to gamble responsibly. Why? Because they also know that you are going to lose in the long run so you might as well be in control of your gambling habits.
Tax is the only important thing that it could bring if the online casino is based in your country. You might get those perks that would help your government rise in the economy just like other popular places with physical casinos established in their location.

Sure, you can make your live better through gambling... if you are part of the house or you happen to have founded your own casino, remember, casinos, lottery agencies and bookies have one thing in common: they are all businesses and businesses never lose money in the long term, they are in the market to make more of it.
The consequences of online gambling is more access for those kind of services to people who had never tried gambling otherwise, mostly because restrictions in their country on brick-and-mortar casinos and bookies.
Gambling can turn your life upside down and make things more difficult in general, that is why one needs to be careful with problem gambling snd stop wagering money as soon as one notices the first signs of addiction and anxiety, like chasing losses.

When people use gambling as a form of casual entertainment, it is perfectly fine - however it can be very easy to slide from irregular play into playing every day. Once you're at the point where you are playing every day, it is starting to become an unhealthy habit (unless you are practicing an actual skilled game like poker and progressively getting better). They say anything is ok in moderation, that applies in this situation. Some people will dump hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars per year into buying virtual items for the latest shooter game or even buying cards on virtual board games, if you've earned it and gambling brings you a bit of joy - go for it, just be careful as it can become a bottomless pit.

This is up to us, if we are gambling as the normal way expected of us pr we are gambling in other way that is abnormal for a responsible gambling experience, also what we mean by making our life successful through gambling has a lot of interpretations as well as applications, should it be when we are gambling for fun or when we are making money form the bets we are placing in it, also, when considering the destructive aspect being mentioned here, gambling is not what destroys us, we are the ones that through our own ignorance and negligence destroys ourselves by the way we gamble.


Fun
Availability to gambling
Gambling access
Gambling choices and selections
Gambling affordability without barrier

Although I agree that as a general rule it will be the business owners, influencers etc. who will make their lives more successful thanks to online gambling, as an exception it is still true that there are extraordinary cases in which gamblers turn their lives around thanks to winning a really big prize in games of pure chance or because of a special ability and luck in table games. But odds are against players, so it wouldn't be reasonable to make it a purpose in life.

It's much better IMO to employ your efforts somewhere else, and use online gambling just as a hobby, unless you are really gifted with cards or something like that. And even in that case, the risks would be too high, because we are talking about games where the winner often takes it all.

GAMBLING IS REALLY JUST THAT FOR FUN!

If you do make yourself thinking up with that gambling to be some sort of source of income then you are really that bound on having that devastated life. It was really just that
designed for the sake of entertainment and leisure purposes. The main purpose on why these things existed in the first place is that they are really just designed to enjoy your time
and spending up some money in exchange of it but of course you could potentially win up big if you are really that turned out to be lucky.

There are really just that those people who do become that delusional and becoming that optimistic that they could make out some living with gambling and this results with having that kind of
desperate actions on which it would really be leading into those huge loses. People do only make that kind of realization on the  time or moment that they will really be losing up tons of money.
Regrets will always come at the end and as much as possible it will really be that ideal that you should really be stopping on what you are currently doing or minding about gambling.

I think it is clear that there is no success in gambling when you are nothing more than a regular player who comes to bet unless you become a dealer as the owner of one of the casinos. You have answered your first question with the second question you asked that what happens is that you will actually direct your life to a lot of destruction through various scenarios that are full of stress on your mental and psychological self.

For me, gambling is nothing more than a playground that I will do when I am bored without having any activities to do, and I also do that only when I have some money that I can afford to lose, for me gambling is not too important, it is just another option when I have no other choice.

I don't even agree to call those streamers gamblers, because as far as I know they are only given fake balances (not playing demo). Gambling must be followed by basic knowledge about gambling, so that gamblers can carry out gambling activities responsibly. We come from the same country, I think we both know a lot of the cases you mean.

Making life successful in gambling is all about luck and cannot be determined by hard work or skill but by luck .you cant just predict wether to make success or not since you wouldn't know the outcome of your prediction.

Gambling can only be destructive when you get addicted and gamble more often than usual.

The important of online gambling over offline gambling is that online gambling make it more convenient for you to carefully predic game without noise or distraction from the public.

Understand well about gambling and get into it. Whether it is online gambling or offline gambling, the good and bad out of it happen based on the user's understanding about gambling. Most people, while getting into gambling for the first time, have the belief that gambling helps them financially and soon they'll turn rich. As time goes on, users start understanding the reality of gambling. For a few, it serves to be life-changing, whereas for the majority, gambling leads to the destruction of their lives. We cannot indicate the gambling platforms as the reason. They're into business. It is all about the people's learning that keeps them on the safer side.

The consequences of online casino games, either negative or positive may varies with respect to each individual, base on certain factors, such as risk proficiency, skills and basic knowledge about understanding the casino game you intend to gamble on. Because the truth of the fact is that, though gambling is tagged as an activity been carried out by irresponsible individuals, one that certain is that through gambling, many people have been able to afford the lives of their dreams when they get lucky to win a jackpot, and likewise some have also lost a fortune while failing the minimize the risk. Hence, gambling can never lead to life destruction, if only you gamble what you can always afford to lose, while knowing it's not a get rich quick scheme.

As a gambler, even though you are new to online or offline gamble you should know that gamble is not a good means of making a regular income for yourself because for winning to come through gambling is not guarantee. However, online gambling helps us to meet new gamblers from different places and it also helps us to keep ourselves busy when we are bored, but when you are gambling to keep yourself busy you do not need to mixup emotions when you began to lose because that will definitely make you to lose more.
Actually, you need to find another alternative to make money.

If you gamble because you want to change your life, it will be difficult for you not to be addicted or act irrationally towards your decision making. Gambling should not be seen as main occupation but as something done for passive income. This way winnings or losses will not make much negative impact on the gambler as there are other things that keeps the gambler busy so depression will not set in when there is big losses which always happen at some point.

The importance of online gambling is making it easy for someone to gamble from anywhere they are with a complete privacy and the possibility of the online gambling becoming a destruction depend how the gambler see it because online gambling shouldn't bring a destruction to someone unless they made themselves to and also you may not have a direct answer as if gambling can make our lives more successful because some persons has a bitter or good taste of it, so actually asking the question of successful in gambling is like trying to predict your tomorrow and I can beat my chest to tell you that there are people who has gamble for more than 20 years till now they have not achieve any tangible thing but those who were privileged to are just few because you will have to outsmart the bookmakers to be successful.

Would not consider being able to live better from gambling let alone be successful, for me this is difficult to achieve, once they are a professional gambler it may be difficult to be successful.

We consider gambling as fun then it will not be considered as success in online casinos, there are many where people fall bankrupt because of continuous gambling, there are people who win large amounts but it is in the lottery but overall in gambling games will lose more.

Maybe you can be success from online gambling if you have the experience won the money with huge of prizes or the jackpot and people have already know that because won those jackpots can change their life and they also can make living from those money but don't expect too much because only the people with super luck who can able to do that and about the consequences of online gambling i think people at here have already know that because if you cannot control yourself while gambling then eventually they will became an addicted so being an responsible gamblers are more important rather than considers you can success in gambling

Yes, this is the biggest risk for gambling as playing is now very accessible to everyone. We even don't know if kids are playing more often today as they can easily register on any gambling platform. There are even instances that they uses their parents credit card to play.


Regardless of what purpose it is, we should be able to control ourselves and not get addicted by it. You mentioned some positive effects of gambling, and it could really shake our mood into more positive specially if we win sometimes.

But it should not be treated like a regular job that you can make money and bring food in the table for your family.

Don't expect too much success from gambling, if you get a victory that changes your life, then be grateful. But never be ambitious to change your life from gambling. Just enjoy gambling with the games and bets that you can make.
I don't know how important online gambling is, but it helps gamblers who are not free to do their gambling activities. If you want to keep enjoying gambling, then you must be prepared for all the risks.

When financial advancement is what you are looking for, then I will be sounding negative on the aimnof taking gambling to means of income because gambling is unrealistic and the outcome is always unpredictable, this is very important to know and make adequate plans for, losing in gambling makes it not to be a viable income mechanism, so for that as a gambler one have to take things for what it actually is which is fun, so if you want to avoid any form of negative outcome from gambling, then what you need to do is to avoid over dependency on the outcome of your bets, this is where many guys get it all wrong and for sure the fastest way for them to slide into possible addictions.

Gambling can only be exciting if you have that mindset of not looking for means to double your money or making steady income, because that is never going to happen along the line,  another way to avoid the negative experience is that not to gamble in an excessive manner and always avoid borrowing to gamble with I some certain cases.

No, whether online of offline gambling, it's not a guarantee that we will always win. The only thing with online is that you can play whenever you want because now you have the tools like your mobile phone + internet = online gambling.


There is no such expert in gambling, every is going to be tempted and we could all be addicted to gamblers. Yeah, there are some person who goes into the addiction and comes out alive and live to tell the tale.

And yes, if you don't have the control your lives will be ruined by gambling, which means that you not only lose money here in the long run, but your relations with your loves ones are going to be affected negatively.

People that have won big from online casino games ended up losing half or all of their wins, this tells you that casino games cannot make anyone financially stable, it's a losing game once you get addicted to it. One of the downsides of online casino games is the easy accessibility, within a few seconds you can fund your bet account even after losing and you can continue doing this until you realize that you have nothing left in your bank account. The addiction that comes with online gambling is real, do your best not to get into that mental trap.

You always have a choice. You, as the one who controls your own life, can decide how to live. Will you be careful in your gambling expenses, or, on the contrary, will you not control yourself? It is wrong to talk about the influence of games on a person without the person himself. No gambling game can make a person an addicted player without his participation. Therefore, there is always a choice about what is paramount for a person. Will gambling be a regular entertainment, or will a person elevate gambling as the meaning of his whole life?

The consequence is the risk of addiction because of its easy access and because online gambling can be accessed anytime and anywhere, people can become addicted to playing continuously, which can lead to addiction and can be financially detrimental. And in the long run I think there is no online gambling that can make people successful, except winning the jackpot and then stopping.
Online gambling or traditional gambling was created not to make money, but only for entertainment and can be a fun way to spend free time. And besides that it can improve your mood positively, create happiness and can also improve your skills or you can gain skills while playing. And it all depends on your goals when gambling, and if you aim to make money it will only make you play without control which will lead to addiction because you will be controlled by the game not the game that you control.

It depends on which position you are taking a place in the gambling industry, if you are the owner of online casino so yes you can make your lives more successful because gambling is a potential business.
But if you put yourself as gambler, the most possible result is that you will destroy your own life especially when you are already addicted which makes you unable to control your gambling habit.


Can be many things in different sectors mostly economic because online gambling can create some jobs for people.
The more online casinos = the more people job vacancies are created which means that more people can be reqruited to work.
Other thing is about entertainment because there are some people get entertained by gambling.
This is if we look at the positive side of online gambling ofc.

The effect that gambling will have on your life will depend on how you gamble and the way you view it. View gambling as a way to have fun and be entertained while you enjoy your favorite sports, it could make your life more happy even though you tend to lose a little amount of money occasionally to gambling. If you view gumbling as a way to make money then you would easily get depressed at any point where you lose money to a casino or a betting site, and that can make your life worse. If you become addicted to gambling so much as well, it will affect the quality of your life.

I am not an expert because in gambling no one is really 100% expert. Therefore success in gambling is not the most rational choice because you throw money into the game, this is pure gambling that should be considered as a means of entertainment. The story is different if you have special abilities that can be used to work with the casino, then I think the category of success would make more sense, but if you are just a regular user please be wiser to make it just for entertainment.

Can't... Unless you are an online casino owner, while the players are not successful in gambling.

Maybe a streamer who still makes a living in gambling, but they become a casino sponsor who is paid a salary... if a streamer doesn't rely on that maybe his life will be ruined.

There have been many cases where because of irresponsible online gambling that ended up being destroyed because of more losses and frustration ... then it will be difficult to say successful in gambling.

I don't think we can change our lives for the better through online gambling. In fact it can change our life for the worse in the majority of cases as gambling is invented to give benefits to the ones organizing it, the casino owners. It is difficult for people to improve lives through gambling, in fact the more we stay away from it the higher the chances to improve our life.

Sure one can try their chances through gambling but should be careful how long you play as the more you gamble the higher the risk to destroy your life through gambling.

By successful, if you mean happy and satisfied, I would say if you do it the right way and by that I mean responsibly and legitimately. And it is more than just online gambling but gambling as a whole.

Yes, this can happen too in the event of irresponsible gambling. Taking it as a source of income, a full time job. Putting in money you can't afford to lose. It i can lead to several mental health issues like depression and worse suicidal ideation.

Gambling as a whole can when to burn off steam. For socialization purposes. The key is to do it moderately.

Online gambling have actually its own positive and negative effects to its gamblers. While it can be beneficial in some aspects, it can also ruin us in other phases most especially if we are not responsible of our actions towards our gambling activities.

Online gambling can offer us convenience and accessibility within the comfort of our home. With its 24/7 availability and wide range of interesting games, no wonder a lot of people are now hooked to playing online casinos. Another is, boosting of social interaction even with people you haven’t personally known.

However, massive online gambling could also lead to different negative outcomes. First is gambling addiction. If you gamble using your emotions, you will clearly fall into the traps of gambling. Another is emotional and mental health issues. Gambling should be entertaining, and not should be causing stress, anxiety and depression. Lastly, since it’s online gambling, there is high risk of falling into scam and fraud, even with offline casinos this is also possible. That’s why we should always be extra cautious when gambling.

The success that is brought by online gambling only depends on how you approach it personally. But for certain, if you aren’t responsible and extra mindful, you will never gain success with gambling.

it's possible but it is unlikely to happen to the majority of gamblers.

this is more likely to happen compared to having successful like through gambling but I wouldn't say that the majority of gamblers will get their lives destroyed through gambling.

from my point of view alone, I can say that the importance of gambling for me is that it is a great way to unwind or relieve stress while having the chance to win something.

It depends, you understand what is called online or the internet, there are two things that can happen, bad and good, these two things always coexist, especially in online gambling, if you are a professional gambler and understand all the strategies when you bet, Of course you can become a successful person in the world of gambling, but on the contrary, you can also be frustrated, crazy, lose and harm yourself as a result of online gambling. The point is: the choice is up to you to choose, that's the use of reason to think.

Important or not, loss or gain is all up to you, you definitely know the core nature of 'games' there are losers and winners, the importance of gambling lies with those who are experts at gambling, there is no interest in those who always fail.

To be fair, yes and no.
Yes, because there have been gamblers that made their lives successfully with online gambling and I've read good stories from the real ones that have been shared here.

And this is where my answer goes with a no, and I think it's self explanatory why.

The importance varies on what kind of gambler you are. If you're starting out as a newbie gambler, you can gamble and just do it casually while having fun without the intention of trying to do the same as what the successful ones did. Because it doesn't happen to everybody.

Both online and offline gambling have the consequences and risk which is gambling addiction. We will be difficult to leads our lives to have a succesful lives through gambling. But we can get addicted to gambling easily and never realize about that. What we want is only continue playing gambling and try to win but that will not as good in their dream. It is difficult to success from gambling so many people don't have to do that and focus with their job.

The importance thing from online and offline gambling will be vary for each people. But when people choose to playing gambling in the online casino, they don't have to go to a physical casino and just stay at their home.

One of the key benefits of online gambling is convenience. It makes gambling very easy and comfortable. You can gamble anywhere without visiting any physical betting platform.

Online gambling also promotes privacy. Most people in my area don't know that I gamble because they have never seen me gamble. But there are people in my area who are generally known as gamblers because they are popular faces in physical casinos.

Unrestricted access to gambling is another benefit. With online gambling, you can access any casino regardless of the location. You can also have access to a variety of games.

The disadvantage I can think of now is that it could fuel addiction if not handled responsibly. Its unrestricted access and convenience could lead to uncontrollable gambling. And people can easily hide their struggles with addiction since they gamble privately or secretly.

The beauty of gambling whether online or physical is when it os done responsibly. You ability to gamble with what you can afford to lose is very important.

"Consequences" is sound like a bad effect, while online casino isn't entirely bad.

Online casino can be a solution for introvert or someone who don't want to get distracted with other people to gamble, gambling can be a stress reliever, dopamine, or entertaining.

As we get older, we're always looking to make money, playing a games without reward is no longer exciting, that's why gambling is something like a games for adult. When we're young we can enjoy games without reward, as we get older, we value our time for money.

Making a living from gambling is not a good thing, but despite that there are many people who make their living from gambling and it is still going on today. Besides that, because of online gambling there are also many people whose lives are ruined, these people are not people who are aware of what they are doing, they play without any basis, and without any other goal than profit.

No? You don't need an expert to know that you're most likely going to end up destroying your lives rather than making it successful. You just need common sense really. Yes, there can probably be some people, maybe the 0.01% (or lower) of people could, but would you risk everything just to get to something that has that low of a chance lol. Not to mention those who actually are in that percentage are probably rich already in the first place! So your chances would probably go even lower than that.

That doesn't mean you can't gamble though. Just enjoy it like how you do with games/hobbies. Consider it as one, not as a livelihood.

What do you mean? With online gambling now, it's presents itself as another option for many gamblers or would be gamblers to play. Like 10 years ago, I know a lot of gamblers locally here, but when I ask them that we go to land base casinos or traditional based, they don't like to go. They are afraid that you should have big money in your pocket or you have to show it before entering. But now, they people that I know has been playing online games more than I do. They are into slots every day of their lives like 2 years ago or during the start of the pandemic as online gambling went off the roof that time. So I'm like really surprised that this people who I thought doesn't want to play are now playing online and losing big money. Yeah, you can say that they are just passing or killing time, but still, if you are like losing, let's say $10-20 a night, then sum it up to like a month or a week, it's already a big money here in our country.

Online gambling has benefits such as relieving stress, improving mood, etc., and asking if there are people who are successful from online gambling, maybe the percentage is very small, since not all gamblers have the opportunity to get a jackpot from their gambling. So because of that, someone should not make online gambling a way to achieve success. However, online gambling will not destroy someone, as long as the person gambles according to his limits and is responsible for it.

No one can make success through gambling because it is not a means to make profit but gambling is for fun. It's the gambler per se that will determine if he wants gambling to lead him to destruction or not. When you gamble for profit or think that you can make a fortune from gambling is when you will become addicted due to excessive gambling. The only way to be a successful gambler is when you have self control and manage your bankroll properly by using only the amount of money that you can afford to lose. Gambling takes more from us.

This is one of the benefits of online gambling:

Unless you are looking for depression as you continue to lose money because you want to make money from online gambling.

This is very possible if you think you can make money from gambling. But if you see it as a means of passing time and using little amount of money for it, you will see the benefits.

Can we make our lives more successful through online gambling? Or will we lead our lives to destruction through this gambling. What is the importance of online gambling? In this regard, the attention of the experts of the forum is drawn to submit comments in this regard.
