The reason for the free credits is ok but one of the most interesting aspects I see when you look into the world of online casinos is the variety of free credits. These credits act as incentives, providing players with additional virtual credits or the chance to enjoy the game for longer. It is important to remember that these free credits are not the same as real money instead they are much higher risk than real investment. These bonus offers add an extra layer of excitement to the real money betting gameplay.

Sounds easy but cashing out on using up those free credits isnt really that simple as it looks or sounds. They would normally be setting up those criterias and requirement for you to be able to make out such withdrawal
or hitting up only the threshold on which we do know that this is something almost close to impossible but somehow if you are really just that aiming for prolong game time then these free ones would really be something considerable on which we do know that this is something that i do prefer or this is the way i do treat up these bonuses or free credits.

Going back into the topic about gambling at work then its not really just that right on doing so. You are just basically putting up yourself on such great trouble on losing up your job.
You are working to do your job and not to play gambling not unless if you do play on vacant or break time then its considerable but if we do speak about on the actual
working hours then its not something recommended. You are risking on losing up your job.

Yeah, I think the only way to actually make some money out of gambling is to have some kind of offset from free credits or something similar.

That way you can actually lose some money, but still end up on top because of the free credits.

Yes, it will come back to them who works at their jobs. They should knows about what they can do while they are work and if they thinks that playing gambling at their work is okay and doesn't gives problem to them, they can still doing that. But if not, they must ends their gambling activity and not playing gambling at their work. They doesn't have to risks their job and playing gambling because they needs to have focus while they are work and to avoids the problems that occurs to them. Every employee has a time to work and if they can finish their work in the right time, they can be an good employee and who knows, they can get rewards from their work. They must gives their best performance to their work because their work gives them salary monthly so they must avoid something that can harm them.

Playing gambling is just for fun and not to make money. People who still playing gambling in their work should understand about this and will obey the rules on their work so they will not have a problem at all. But they can playing gambling if they have a spare time so they can used it to relax their minds.

Yes, if we have a good and stable jobs, we should not takes a risks by playing gambling or doing other things that can harms our reputations or our performances in our work. It's better we works as usual and gives something good to our works so our bosses can see that we are the ones of the dedication employees so we can gets something or reward for our lives. We can playing gambling in the other time and don't needs to risks our job, especially if some people watch us playing gambling. We must avoids that thing happens because that can caused us loses our job without any chance to backs to our job. We must takes care of our jobs and not doing something wrong that can affects to our performances to our work.

Perphaps your boss wanted you guys to beta test the platform and report any bugs and the alike which I don't understand as game provider does this before giving it out to casino's etc...Or maybe the boss just wanted you guys to pass time and familiarise yourself with the games so that you help new players one doors are open to the public... otherwise this is more of not gambling at work as this was part of your Job, hope you won some big multipliers 

Guess your co-worker got hooked to gambling while beta testing, but how does he manage to gamble and mix work together  Hope his 100% accountable for money on his till because gambling has alot of temptations that can make you use money that was meant for something else to be used here.

It is impossible for someone to be gambling, and also pay attention to work. The person must either be committed to gambling or his work. Therefore, anyone that do not want distraction in carrying out his duties efficiently would never think of gambling. It is a gambler that is addicted, and cannot control his gambling activities, that will bring it down to his workplace.

Gambling at work will make you lose focus on the right thing to do at the right time, which might become a problem to you, because you will not take your job serious. This will affect the company's progress and if your Boss noticed that it was from your side, you might lose your job. Especially when he notice that gambling is what has made you not to be serious at work.

I agree with this in here. Well gambling during your breaks or menial work on your job may sound interesting to some people, it is not ideal to do long term. Because in gambling it would put you into some mental stress. You win some cash, you lose some money, you may probably lose your account. Then how can you perform well in your job if your mind is stressing about your win/lose. If you cannot regulate your stress and emotions well, other aspects of your life not only to work may get affected negatively as well. Worst, it may turn to some addiction.

Reading news also require focus, otherwise it will be simply looking at the screen. Talking to friends or working colleagues also isnt standing near and being silent. How can a person not focus in a conversation? At one moment he will lose the idea of a talk and can not continue. Anyway, all these activities means not working. You cant use right eye and hand to read news and scroll the page, and use left eye to work. Then how is gambling working? What is the difference from watching in the windows for 15 minutes and gambling for 15 minutes, when both actions are not working?

I worked in an online casino before in my country, since our platform was new at that time, our bosses gave us money on our account to try and play different games from different gaming platforms. Try the platform before it is released. And as time passed by and our platform was released, one of my co-worker still plays, but this time on different platforms. I was not sure if it's allowed but our manager just let him play since he is the one who bring lots of profit in the company. I may no longer work there but still it's a fun experience to try out and play different platforms as if you are really playing with your own money.

I never tried do gambling at work because it made me not focused and always think about the game, secondly here in my country gambling is seen as a negative and do gambling is prohibited by law so is illegal to do gamble in my country.

But there is a headline news that talk about people do gamble in my country and here is the pic both of them work in government, pic number one is she do gamble in the middle of meeting while the other one it probably at lunch break.

It all started with a small bad thing that was done and there was no problem, therefore there is a possibility that there will be an urge to do more things than before, so that you will be even bolder, which in the end will become a problem in itself which is detrimental. like starting to play during working hours but no one knows what he is doing, including the boss. However, as time goes by, bolder actions will occur, such as often gambling during work hours even though the work that needs to be done is postponed, and of course this will indeed affect our performance. because gambling has a side that can divert the player's focus, especially if the gambling is good in every round, it will most likely make it comfortable and fun to continue playing until you forget about responsibilities and time.

Even though sometimes we definitely feel bored with our work, this doesn't mean we have to do things that cause problems such as gambling, there are still many other things we can do that won't cause problems in the future. but when the work is finished but it's still a long time to go home then we can do what we want, but if we gamble, will that be okay? Maybe it depends on the person, if they can control themselves maybe everything will be fine.

I want to tell you about an incident that happened months ago at my fulltime job. A guy came to us who made it clear that he loves cryptocurrencies, which is why I thought he was very smart, like any crypto guy. In fact, he turned out to be a poor specialist in the field of wet work. Once the Security Service saw that he was engaged in trading at the workplace. After that, he was given a warning. But a week later, he got caught playing poker on his day off after going to work. It's just incredible carelessness. Of course, he was fired, and they began to monitor the employees even more.
I don't understand at all how stupid I had to be to relate to what you do. Agree, you don't need to have brains to play from a work computer.

based on my own experience, gambling can divert our focus, when we are resting during work hours and doing gambling then there is a possibility that we will focus more on gambling even though the rest time is over I experienced this the same as when I was working on a paper when I was tired typing, I took a break to play on my cell phone and indeed when I saw a gambling advert I felt like gambling and I did it until it diverted my focus. I became so focused on my gambling that I forgot about the paper work I had to complete.

I don't think it's good if gambling is made into a hobby because it could possibly make us lose a lot of money and, worst of all, it could make us go bankrupt Moreover gambling excessively is not good, because we all know that gambling is only a game that must be played consciously so as not to drain our finances. If we gamble excessively then we must be prepared for the big losses that will occur including losing our job because of it. as you said, if we are employees, it is better not to gamble during working hours. The point is take care of the gems you have obtained, don't look for disease.

If you have a good and stable job, better to take care of it the right way, like what you mentioned if you don't see any good future for your gambling better live it as venue to have some fun and forget about dealing and focusing on it, to the point that you'll risk your job just to please your gambling sessions, most of those who failed to control losses their day job, some might caught in their duty while others due to addiction failed to address the needs of their job and runied things leaving their employer to find a good replacement as the person's mindset is more into gambling and no longer capable to perform their  obligation.


Yeah, focus is  important in gambling and so with your job, it's difficult to balance both in the same time, maybe there are some but for sure it's really a little or few wise and experienced gamblers who can deal with it, most are not and most risk both job and their finances when failed to have that control and become addicted.

What you have said is correct but everything will come back to the gamblers themselves whether they can work well or not even during working hours, each gambler will have their own job and everyone also has different working hours.
Moreover, this will also be related to responsibility because those who have sense of responsibility towards their work will be able to complete all their work without any interference, time management is also very important for this.
In job there will always be free time that each worker can really use to do whatever they want, but this is very limited and if they really want to use it for gambling then they have to make sure that it will not affect their work.
Some people biggest mistake is that they gamble at work but don't prioritize completing work and also forget the time, when it time to go back to work they are still on the gambling site to bet.
This is clearly the reason why many jobs cannot be completed according to target and they encounter problems in their work.

After all, if it just for fun and to entertain yourself from lot of work then it can't possibly take up lot of time and money.
Good or bad effects of gambling on work will also depend on attitude and self-control when gambling.

Gambling is a game of prediction, the better the prediction, the higher the chance of winning. So if someone gambles at his workplace then his full focus is not on gambling. Part of his focus will be on gambling and part on work so he will not be able to make good predictions at this time. And so his chances of losing will be very high. If someone has a habit of gambling at work, it is undoubtedly a bad habit. and such addiction destroys people in many ways. So I will call such a person as a crazy

Reading the news, drinking coffee, smoking, and even talking with your friends is a different activity from gambling. Gambling requires focus (depending on the game that you are playing), and you need to have enough time to decide on your bets. Some gambling games are not about placing a bet randomly and just waiting for the results to come out. Unless you are playing games that are purely on luck, but sometimes even in these kinds of games you will not have a great result if you gamble at work.

Gambling requires enough time to think and decide for every bet. If you do that while you are working, it may highly affect your decision-making. You might make a rush decision due to the limited time you have on gambling. Aside from that, gambling while working is a domino effect that once you are affected by the result of your gambling activity, your work will also be affected and as a result, you will not be productive at all.

Does it really makes sense when so many claim that gambling at work affects job effectivity, yet nobody works non-stop at work and during working days always have moments to go make a coffee, chat with others employees, check their social media or simply surf in the internet? Why spending 15 minutes on gambling is unacceptable and will have an impact on result, but reading news for 30min while drinking morning coffee + going out every few hours for a smoke is ok and does not make affect on a result?

Even when it is really not right to play online gambling while we are at work, We all know that our attention will be divided between work and gambling.
It is possible to spend more time and attention on gambling via an online casino.

So if anyone is an employee, this is not a good decision to make, and he should simply choose what his priority is, whether it is his job or his passion for gambling.

It's better not to playing gambling in your work if you can't be that efficient or can't focus after playing gambling. That will disturb your work and gives some problems to you so you better not to playing gambling in your work. When you don't see bigger chance to win from gambling, it's better you leave gambling as a fun and not depends on the gambling to make money, especially if you already have a job that can gives you money. You better to serious with your work than with gambling because you can make money from your work. Yes, it will be too dumb if you choose to playing gambling to make money than from the work that clearly can gives you the income. No need to listen to your friends that asking you to playing gambling in your work because you must prevent the problems that can occurs to you.
