What are the best gambling games originally from Asia?

You can see an extensive list of popular gambling games in Asia here -
https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.gamblingsites.com/blog/7-most-popular-casino-games-in-asia-24740/amp/

It's a good article, and it has some Japanese games mentioned, but it's about popular games in Japan, not popular Japanese games. For instance, while Baccarat's origin is disputed, it's not assumed to be Japanese, Pai Gow, Keno, and Sic Bo are Chinese. As for the rest of the games in the article - sure.
Trying to answer the op's question better is not an easy task, though. Some of the great video games originated in Japan, but when it comes to gambling - typical dice game (craps) is from Europe+US, something resembling poker is traced to China, Roulette is French.

There's a thread before that's named 'ending game' and that came from an Asian country. The mechanics of the game is it will depend on the ending score of a basketball game and that could be an NBA match or your local basketball league.
If the final score is 98-79 then the ending result will be 9-7 (97).

It is mostly Baccarat, Pai Gow, Sic Bo, Keno and a few others. Though, it depends on what you regards as best, which part of the Asia you are playing from and if it will be online or offline.
Each countries in Asia has a game(s) that is known as the best and also popular.

Yes, that’s a good betting game from the Philippines but I don’t think its popular around asia or its really good. I guess Majhong is the best game that is originated from China and adopted by many countries. I play this game and its really fun and profitable to play this one, i think western countries also know this.

Philippines is from Asia so there's no conflict. Asia is a continent so any gambling game that originated from an Asian country can be considered.
Yeah Mahjong is one popular game though until now I don't know how to play the game although I have Chinese relatives. I see them play this game and in casino's crypto or not, there's a game of Mahjong.

While cock fighting is popular in Asia and most specially in the Philippines where cock fighting derby can last up to 1 week with prize money that can reach up to $20,000 USD, however, it is unclear if cock fighting originate from Asia or South East Asia. Greeks are known to play this game but other historians think Asians where the one who thought of this game.

Ening games is popular gambling from phillipines those people basketball fantastics, Correct me if Im wrong the most commin popular gambling games origanally herein the phillipines is cards games like pusoy tongits including the cara y cross.

Perhaps the most famous are only keno and mahjong, because most of the players are in China. Well, even though the Chinese government has strictly forbidden its people to gamble, they have various ways to avoid the government's rules.

Btw, my country is also one of the Asian countries, well here the famous gambling game is Cockfighting and for online gambling it might be poker. It is undeniable that we have been in era 4.0, where gambling has been considered a business by people, especially online gambling.

That was not popular all over the asia, it's only popular in the Philippines IMO.


The mechanics is so easy but for those who have access in online gambling, I don't think they will choose this type of game compared to sportsbetting.

It seems that you are typing quickly and you forgot to edit those wrong spellings you've made. It's understandable though.

OP is asking for the best games that originally came from the continent so I think that can be considered since the country is part of the continent.

Yes but it isn't the point.

From what I've read, tongits is indeed popular in the Philippines however its origin remains unknown. It has similarities with an American game 'Tonk' and Mahjong. But, Filipinos still consider it as their own as it is played by Pinoys in all walks of life. However, if we'll consider Asia as a whole, I'd go with Mahjong. I think it's well known across Asia and ranked number 2 in a blog I've read [here: https://www.gamblingsites.com/blog/7-most-popular-casino-games-in-asia-24740/amp/]


So that's how it goes? The first digits of the final score? Whoa. I really thought it was the last digit because of the word "ending". Turns out I was wrong. ;D Now I know.

Yes that's the mechanics on determining the winning number. So bettors can't be duplicated and there will be only one winner for each match.
The numbers can be doubled like 7-7 as given with my example. There's no way to cheat on the results because the score will be broadcasted everywhere since you are betting with the popular game, basketball.

Cockfighting did not originate in Philippines so I don't think this is in the list.

Despite the fact that cockfighting is so popular in our country, as far as I know it did not originate here. I guess we can include the gamble of kids or sometimes adults with the spiders they caught on mountainsides since I did not heard it in other countries. Another thing is the Kara, or the other gambling games that includes coins in the streets of the Philippines.

Where this type of game originated then?

Did search in google and it stated here that it was brought by Magellan in the Philippines and that started the popularity of the cock fighting.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockfight

I wish we can bet online in this type of game

it may not originated in the philipines but philipines is still an asian country and they love to gamble using cocks/chicken  .  the game also popular on other asian country as well as spider games like you mention or shall i say insect fights in general because there were also other insects that being used to gamble . card games also is verry popular on the asia . there are many kind of games inside the card game category  but any of these are being played every single day on our place  .

You searched it but you did not read it, come on man!

Quote on the Wikipedia page you linked here.


People bet on this game even before Magellan was born.

It was originated in the Philippines the Ending Game in which started around late 1980's and got bloomed in 90's where most Filipino becomes enthusiasts of basketball and since this game is about that sport many turns to betting

Another game that came from the Philippines is Tong Its this game based and patterned in Mahjong but has used a Card instead of tiles.so great of Filipino in making Gambling games

There is a game in one part of the world near me, towards Philippines and Indonesia, if anyone heard of it, it translates to Crab. And very popular in Vietnam and China, my parents played it all the time, you guys know this?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoo_Hey_How

^ Because mahjong is originated and developed in China and that country is a part of Aisa country, many Chinese people who like playing Mahjong a game that based on tile that has a symbol. I rarely have seen a Mahjong feature game in online casino maybe it is hard to find a match. Just like poker, you need to seat the table first but Mahjong game needs only 4 people to play.

Never heard of this mate but upon checking the link it seems like The Tile game in China the Mah-jong but.correct me if I'm wrong since i don't also play that game lol

Anyway i guess all of ths game in asia had been mentioned but its nice to see how gambling minded asian people was having created all of these games 😆

One of the games in this article is Baccarat.
Baccarat is indeed the most liked game, I guess many people don't know this game. But apparently this game is the most popular in Asia. For everyone here, who has never played the Baccarat game. You have to try it and it might make you addicted.

There are a lot of casinos in Asia that offer Baccarat. But I think the game itself does not originate from Asia. Or at least there are contending countries as to where it actually started.

What I have read, however, is that the playing cards originated from Asia, in China to be specific. And then it eventually reached other parts of the world, resulting into different variations of card games. I guess there are scores of gambling games using playing cards.

Cockfighting is the best gambling games that came from Asia originally and to be exact, it came from the Philippines. Until many people are into this game and very popular too among men here.

I don't know how to play Tong Its and Mahjong.

I never seen it as well maybe because most of the Chinese online casino's are only accepting Chinese gamblers and residents. While most of the mainstream casino's doesn't have it because there's no demand for it. Maybe in China there is but still I don't know. I'll follow the thread to know more about original games that came from Asia.

Ok, so we are all focussing on these games but what about the games that should not include money but as Filipinos, we put out money on it.

That includes the spiders we bet on but most importantly, how about the Filipino toys we are playing, I'm talking about Teks, about Pogs, and the Rubberbands. As a kid, I bet on rubberbands using my rubber bands, I don't use my money though, but in Teks? Damn! My mom usually uses 2 hangers to hit me with that. I spend my monthly allowance with what we call Teks-money. We bet money on Teks. For those who don't know, Teks is like those trading cards in NBA but in our case, that is all Anime, Movies, even Dramas.

Spiders and text money. These two games are part of my childhood memories. I also play cara-cross. Every people in the Philippines know this games because we are familiar with this game and each of Filipino children. Now, I am reminiscing my childhood memory back when I have many profits in playing games like this.

Majhong is a common or famous game on Philippines which is originated from China.There are lots of games that had been adopted locally but I cant figure it out each one of their origins.Like also with the famous card game tong-its which most locals do know about this games existence.It might or cant be seen internationally but these games are quite entertaining.

But google says it was practiced by greeks later by persians but no one actually know where it came from,but there are some people says it might be from South east Asia. :)

It's really addicted once you attached yourself and didn't bothered to control yourself you'll be engaged and it will ruined your life, there's a lots of addicted gamblers who uses this game first to gain entertainment before getting addicted and forget about controlling and lose everything.

Baccarat, Keno, Mahjong and Sic Bo are one of the most populars, especially in Hongkong and Macau due to the number of people familiar with the said games. I myself am playing Mahjong in local gambling houses and it sure is an easy way to earn some side money if you know how to hustle your way through the game. Baccarat, on the other hand, is famous on big gambling houses  and casinos in literally most parts of Asia, and you can't go wrong playing that game as it's tok fun as well.

Lol we use those youngsters game to gamble wayback years when we were kinds,I remember using Teks but the bet isn’t not card instead it’s actual money,things the at forbidden by our parents but we do in some far places without the reached of our mothers.
The Teks-Money thing lol

And there are one of the most famous gambling in school specially in Highschool,and that is Called “Digits and Lucky9” but we don’t use cards instead our own Paper Fiat .or sometimes even Calculators is enough to satisfy the need to gamble and win over classmates

Can’t forget those younger times that a always want to turn back times,unforgettable and full of memories

If you mean "best" as in most popular or got wide range, I would say it's Keno. Most lottery outlets in many countries carry the game. I consider it the instant-gratification cousin of lotto.

Another one I can think of is Mah-Jong. It's still quite popular in Asia. Not so much in the West but there seem to be enthusiasts.

Haha I know this game, in Brunei and neighbouring states in Malaysia and Indonesia it's called Katam-Katam or Ketam (Crab). The wikipedia seems to reference it in Hokkien in my part of that world it is the same "HuHeHau" (FishPrawnCrab). I have NO idea how it's played but it uses dice with the six images on their sides. You place bets on a big board with the same images and the dice results give you winnings (I don't know the odds).

Totally popular and in every illegal underground casino. I totally forgot about this until this was mentioned. Every few weeks in Brunei local news you'd see the police raid these games hahaha.

DEFINITELY not Mahjong. Just pure dice.

Keno has been popular in my country and I did enjoy playing it. Lotto is definitely famous but it’s very hard to win in it. Imagine multiplying your money thousand times with a small amount. Lol.

Mah-jong is definitely the go-to gambling game. It’s my parents hobby to play with other family members. It’s funny to see them trash talking each other on who have the most money at the end.

Cockfighting is common especially in South America and i think Asia just copy this kind of gambling. I think most gambling games that we play today is originated in Asia. I can't think any gambling games that aren't originated other country except maybe to the roulette that you can tell it by its name.

There are so many games in this world and I want to believe the ones we never know of are more than the ones we probably have seen. This is the first time I am learning about this game and I would admit that it is definitely going to be interesting and worth playing. I think majority of us who are new generation gamblers are quite more familiar with games that deals with technology and this is the reason poker games now tops the list.

The only Asian game I had known about is cockfighting and the only reason I could know this is because of the constant topics that came out some months back concerning the game on the forum, and I am sure it would be the best game from Asian territories because it seems all gamblers from those region liked and played the game at one point in their lives.

"Hoo Hey How" is a Chinese dice game and is very popular in that part of the world. It is similar to a dice game but instead of numbers on the dice, there are symbols (King ,Fish, Prawn, Butterfly Crab) on the dice.

I think one draw is that it's far cheaper. Where I live it's half the price of a regular lotto ticket. (The various lotto games from 6/42 to 6/58 all cost the same.)

And the instant gratification part - there is a draw every 10 minutes! Lost that last game? Well, here comes the next one, try your luck some more!

Well what’s interesting is this game (Cockfighting)is one of the oldest animal game in the world.befoe dogfighting,horse fighting,buffalo fighting and also insect like Spider and even Bugs use to be as gambling instrument to satisfy the addiction to bet.all before this is cockfighting though in some Asian countries this is a traditional game but your right this originated in European countries

Well most of the old people here in Philippines loves cockfighting. The only thing they care about is their chicken, thinking about it all day. There's a lot of street gambling games here in our country, go to peryahan and you'll see a lot of gambling games. I used to play that spider game, buying some strong at devouring other spiders on the stick.

If you think that it would be a good idea that there would be a draw Every 10 minutes, then you are mistaking it. I think having that kind of frequency would make someone more addicted to it or possibly prone to addiction. That's the problem with most humans; they want instant gratification and no more hardships happening. People shouldn't be that lazy.

Horse racing or chicken fighting is a classic game but many people like this kind of gambling. In every country I believe this is still their best game. Over time, new gambling will continue to emerge to replace the old best gambling.

Cock fighting originated in Asia and it became famous to locals there. Even fighting pits were build just to held a cock fighting event. Many gamblers go there and bet on their favored cock. Some rich people have farms and breed high quality roosters there  to participate into cock fighting.

Cockfighting was also very popular here at my place, a country near the Philippines, before gambling was banned. At that time, every cockfight's event would be so crowded. But frankly I do not know the origin of this game. Clearly, this game has been here for a long time.

AFAIK Punto Banco is very popular in Asia too, but it's a kind of Baccarat.

BTW I heard people are betting on praying mantis fights in some asian countries, could someone confirm that?

I noticed that the OP is a newbie and that aside, a female from the name, and I would like to welcome you to Bitcoin Forum and being a female member is quite impressive to have vast and industrious lady, I used the word industrious because I want to believe you are interested in gambling because you want to make money, and if I am correct, then you are at the right place with the right motive.

Back to your question, there are a lot of popular games I know from Asian but not sure which is best, i think this can only be determined by those who may have played and done comparison between them. However, you can check out PaiGow and Keno; I think this two tops the list of Asian games.

They almost forgot now the gambling that bases on cards, or in tiles game like mahjong. The most common is cockfighting, carnival games, and lottery gambling since this is very tempted to buy tickets if the jackpot prize is a quite big amount and make you a quick rich. Olds games are now slowly forgotten by the people because we are in the modern generation which is all people had a gadget and internet. Online casino is still a good place to go.

Well i'm pretty sure online casinos didn't originate i asia. There's a local filipino card game called tongits that i think will easily click with the rest of the gambling world given the chance. Pretty simple mechanics though i'm not sure how it will be implemented once big casinos make it available in their platforms. Also there's pusoy dos who's card heirarchy is similar to poker that can also make time pass really quick once you're playing.

online games are too general  . you need to know if which country was the first to introduced the internet because that country is maybe responsible for the first online casino games  .


thats sad but that is the truth  . people thesedays are now smart and day by day they are trying to invent a new technology that is more better than the previous one  . online casinos are good but lets not forget what we grown with  . better if we can still play those old skool games sometimes just to give respect and honor to them because without them i dont think that we can evolve like this  .

The chickenfowl originated from and was first domesticated in Asia so it's likely that Asians were cockfighting way before the Greeks and Persians. Heard cockfighting is even used in Balinese rituals.

I wouldn't say it originated from the Philippines though it was definitely one of the first thing Spanish chroniclers described they saw the natives do. And it's still a big thing in the Philippines coz the Spanish did not outlaw it and in the modern day, it's illegal in most of SE Asia except in Philippines, Thailand and Guam. I think the Islamic prohibition on gambling is what got it banned in Indonesia and Malaysia.

Yes, it was before Spanish era.

http://www.seasite.niu.edu/Tagalog/Cynthia/onlyinpinas/cockfighting.htm

But the origin is not clearly known. Anyway, I believe that is one game that is very popular in SEA particularly in the PH.
Somebody already mentioned these games. But encountered this article though.

https://slotsjudge.com/blogs/the-3-strangest-gambling-games-originating-in-asia/

Seems that they are chinese gambling games.

Well, theoretically. Most young age people now are having gadget and usually, they gamble in the online casino which is not originated in Asia. This is the truth that old games that base on Asia were diverted to modern technology gamble game which is we have a smartphone to use. Well, but here our place there are some gambling games that playing on the street like playing cards tong-its and Mahjong which is Most often the player is the adult age.

I never heard of all this gambling types until now and I am really so amazed. I have spent the whole day on research, watching YouTube videos and also looking out for related topics on the forum to learn more about this. I must admit that I am so amazed that a particular region could invent such interest game and make into money making and I am super impressed.

It is unfortunate that I belong to the new generation of gamblers and I am more familiar with online gambling but then, there are so many nice games from Asian countries and I give them kudos for this. Gambling has exposed me to a lot of things, shown me traditions I may never have known and the forum particularly has increased my knowledge. Thanks for the comment bro, I learnt something new .

Cockfighting and mahjong is  my country,  I think only Majhong js orignated by the continent of asia and do not know where cam from the cockfighting but every city right now in the Philippines have place for that and most of men who is legal age play that kind of gambling.
Many gambling games that from originally from asia but only Mahjong that Im really sure.

Yeah this is famous game my own brother had two roosters he use to take care of them and make them good tightest fighters so that he will spend them for investing money on cockfight he won many times and with this he is planning to become one of the most famous cockfighters some gamble on dog fights and insects fight as well.

I cant deny to this cockfighting popularity where there were farms who do raise up these fighting cocks for sole purpose of gambling.

It doesn't only involve typical or ordinary people yet some or majority of them are wealthy man who do involve on such gambling activity.

That's right, there's a lots of well known businessman and celebrities like Manny Pacquiao who once being involved from this gambling activities, raising Cocks and make sure that it will be extraordinary before letting it to fight, certain gamblers take a lots of time making sure that the cock will have enough vitamins and in a good health condition  before allowing it to fight and bet with a huge amount of money, this gambling activities is very popular from asia lots of people are taking part of this.

In as much I have come to the reality that this is one of Asians favorite games, it’s still kind of strange to me. Like how can a man buy, and breed cocks to use them for gambling, it’s just somehow to me really. In my country, we treat and respect animals the same way as humans, so to me, it looks that that animal is being maltreated.

Gambling is for fun and we can also make money while having fun but my question is this. What fun can we get from animals fighting themselves, that’s abuse, I feel they only use them for money and its not acceptable at all. There are so many interesting and better games out there and I expect this crap to be scrapped, sometimes I wonder how it has existed for years and also seen as a tradition.

But generally, cockfighting was really a gambling game. You can consider the fighting areas their business section like in the casinos where people gathered to do the gambling. Well, it's a culture and nothing is wrong with that because since after death, people butcher the chickens to offer, isn't it bloody right?

What I really like the most among Asian gambling games is Pusoy as we call it here in our country :) but in English terms it is called Chinese Poker. It is same with the usual Texas Holdem Poker but the difference is that there has no 5 set of cards on the table (including the River and Turn). You will be just given 13 cards in total and it's already up to your strategy on how you build your card (like the usual builds in poker such as straight, flush etc.). I really love this game because it enteratins me a lot and able to earn somehow though I'm not a hustler ;D.

Ps: Sorry for my porr explanation but you can further know the mechanics of the game here (https://www.888poker.com/magazine/poker-world/intro-to-chinese-poker) or play the actual game (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.redkoda.chinesepokermultiplayer&hl=en_US&referrer=utm_source%3Dgoogle%26utm_medium%3Dorganic%26utm_term%3Dchinese+poker+game&pcampaignid=APPU_1_nM9QXZyrGtbn-Qag7oxA). Enjoy!

Although this may be completely different, traditional, and unorthodox, I consider small spiders fighting as one of the memorable gambling games which I believe, started in Asia. I guess that only a handful of people know what I am talking about but I do encourage everyone to watch videos and learn more about that kind of gambling. I also do hope that the practice still exists maybe in the local streets?

Exactly, horse racing is too much popular racing game in Asia, most of the richest people and business man play it, the reason the horses are very expensive, recently my boss bought a racing horse from abroad and its price is $49730.
And about cock-fighting, it is most famous game in Asian village areas, most of the framers play it with a big bet and for this game they take-care their cocks very well with good food and diet.   

Cock fighting is one of the famous gambling game at Asia. Here in the Philippines they even have cock-fighting pits where cock breeders and betters go when a cock-fighting event will happen. Some rich people even bet $1k just for that event and breeders also spend tons of money to raise their fighters well.

This somehow intrigues me, as I don't even know the history of the games that I am playing so far in the gambling sites. If I liked the game I would definitely play it again even though it's origin is unknown. Even the dice game I like the most is unknown to on what country it came from. I am asian so I will be proud if there are lots of games that are in the gambling industry especially in crypto that came from asian countries.

As far i know cockfighting only famous in the several countries such as philipine or thailand but most of other countries didn't play this gambling game and they were also famous in Mexico and possibly cockfighting not originally from Asia although i could not find the exact source about it but in this case i prefer to choose mahjong because this game is so popular even outside asia

I'm not sure if it was originally from Asia but yes, it is popular here and probably one of the gambling games that the rich indulge in.


Not to mention breeders from the US actually come the Philippines to sell their cocks and businessmen from Asian countries where it is illegal like Malaysia come to play.

Not to mention it's a big industry, with all the feeds and vitamin manufacturers and that city governments earn tax from the cockpits.

There is no need to know about the history and origin of games to play for it only the rules of the games is enough but if there is a game from your country then you should proud of it.There are many athletic games and casino games were origin from Asia over the centuries.

According to this link,it do orginated from Southeast Asia https://www.okhistory.org/publications/enc/entry.php?entry=CO012

Yes, it is true that it is mostly played in the Philippines. Tong-Its is a 3 Players card game where only 3 players can play. The two players in Tong-Its will receive 12 random cards and the third player will receive 13 cards where the player who have 13 cards is the first one to Dump a card. It is random on which person will get 13 cards and when the game is finish then the winner will be the one who will start with 13 cards. It's a good game and I always play Tong-Its in my mobile phones.
Pusoy or Pusoy Dos (Filipino Poker) is also called or also known as sikitcha or chikicha or chakicha by some Filipinos. Pusoy/Pusoy Dos and Tong-Its are the two card games that are widely played in the Philippines.

By the way, the spelling of Philippines is not double L because it's double p. I am sure you're also from Philippines.

I have to ask... What does the origin matter? There's no context given by the OP.
A random guy registers a new account and posts a random 1-sentence question...  ???

Maybe for familiarity and also for being proud if Op is Asian because this tells history and also legacy from those people who originated these games as well.

Actually being an Asian it’s just recently that I’ve learn some gambling’s that originated from our country and also those countries near to mine with the help of this thread

I believe that if you will just back read the answer like this has been an argument because cockfighting as the history says did not came first in Asia instead in European country instead but ofcourse we as Asian cannot believe this

Some people do want to know the origin of games. If you are fond of playing new and old gambling games and have a lot interest in them, you would also like to know from where the game originated etc. Many traditional games like cock fighting, bull fighting have a lot of history with them and have interesting stories on how and when they started.

In disagreeing on one because this is something we must be proud and actually I’m thankful about this thread for highlighting the games coming and originating in every part of Asia,and I think this can be edited to WORLD wide origins of every gambling game
Exactly because ASIA is one of the oldest continent in the world that’s why many games was invented and the origins is ASIA

I feel Asians are better with awkward games, so you should not compare a country that deals with technology, and almost all games are online based to a country that keeps on promoting weird games. I am always surprised on how a game like cock fighting can be so celebrated among the Asians and this is really funny.

I am a great fan of adventure and I like to try out things but cock fighting is one thing I would never do, it seems to me like an abuse on the animals and in my country it’s an offense. Knowing that is a country’s most famous and most celebrated game is something that pisses me off and I will not be wrong to say that Asians have the worst kind of games.

I am sure you are not very familiar with Asian games, you probably only heard of cockfight and it gave you reasons to dislike them, the game is actually very interesting, though I have never been where it is played but I have seen a video clip and I found it quite interesting. No wonder they say, one man’s food is another man’s poison.

It might not be suitable for you because of your cultural believe but that is not a good reason to write it off, or speak ill of the game. The players and those from the region enjoy their game and that is the most important thing.

Moreover, Asians are blessed with so many beautiful and interesting games both online and offline and the best of them all is Baccarat and paigow.

I am not sure how do you differentiate between awkward or weird games with the normal games ?
If you think cockfighting is a wired game what about the bull fighting game which is played in west also. There are many games which are popular in certain regions whether it be Asian region or any other part of the world.

Lets just respect on what other countries culture they do have.It might turn out to be an animal abuse to others but this is how thing goes to these Asian countries.

They do love to bet or make gambling with animal fights,sounds to harsh but these are livestocks specially with cockfighting.There are lots of games originated into this countries but not really popular enough to be known globally.

Yeah thats true, in my country in asian of course, gambling is still very often with animals fight. if you often see fights between sheep in the television, showing the sheep clashing head each other, sit's definitely happening in my country. sheep are pitted here and become gambling materials and even a spectacle show that attracts many people.

Well, no one here is claiming that these Asian games are widely played in US and Europe, we're just discussing which among the native Asian gambling games are being played in some limited amount outside Asia (for example, Mah Jong) or have enthusiasts outside (e.g. cockfighting).

But according to my research I think Asia is the best place where people enjoy a allot of games in casino and in different gambling sites. In northern countries and other poker is the best game to play as well as Dice so it is about the place and the people that how they deal with gambling. I think there is no other better place than Asia to promote gambling.

I'm not really sure if this cockfighting is originated in ASIA or it just copied from the other country and people really having the fun of it. This is only a big gambling game existed in here particularly in the Philippines and some big names are taking part in this.
We're to believe that ASIAN people love to gamble, not only of just having fun but some of them become the major source of income. What they saw in the other country will have to try it in here with their own rules and policies to make some difference.

All the leading casino games are originally from Europe and America. Poker and cards was discovered by the great gamblers of ancient times who needed some formulas like probability and invented the concept. Asia has no big contribution in the gambling category and I think it is something adopted into these regions. But there is a great market for gambling in Asia.

There are huge number of other games as well as you said Asia has good name in gambling all over that world. Cockfight is good and famous game that people use to bet on and most of the time it used to happen in village areas in my village once i saw a cockfight and it was so amazing I really enjoyed watching it live.

Yes cockfighting is a good example of it. Not just in villages but even in city areas its also played by most of the people. This game is really fun and has also good chances to make profits especially if you are the one holding a braver cock. Mahjong is also a famous game played by most of the asians and even when i was young, i have really experienced playing this one which is also very fun.
