The other day I was playing in the middle village at night, and saw a group of old people gathered at a night watch post, they were playing cards, I thought they were not gambling, just playing cards, but the longer I was there it turned out that they were gambling, with the losing bet having to give the winner 3 packs of cigarettes, after a while they got bored and raised the bet using money, this is one form of gambling that I have not tried in the real world with the traditional style, I then joined in the game, it seems more exciting in experiences like this.

Have you ever tried something like this and gambled without a casino?

This type of gambling is very common in my country among the youth and elderly men. It's fun to play, but one thing about it is that most of the time arguments can easily come out within, which could escalate to a serious conflict.
 
Street gambling is one of the types of gambling with a high violence crime rate around here, which is one of the reasons why it's illegal here hardly before you can see anyone playing it in the open.

Yes my neighborhood calls it by the same name "street gambling", I agree with you that this kind of gambling has a very low level of security risk, it is easy for conflicts to occur that can even end up in a fight.

It is very dangerous if we gamble alone without bringing a friend who can support us, because the power will influence someone's opponent not to rebel against us if they lose, haha sounds like the world of gangsters, but speaking of fun or not, gambling like this is very fun, especially when you get a win and beat your enemy by a landslide.

This is a very popular card game in in most countries.

We have another type of this card game called Whot. Many people here are more familiar with it than the one in the picture. I play it with friends.

I don't consider the bet serious because I already know the abilities of my friends and even when we stake something which is not money, we end up sharing it among ourselves.

Some other popular games for gambling locally is the English draughts board game. Very very popular.

Yeah, man. My family and friends love card games too. We have even staked money when playing old maid lol -- don't ask at what age did we start doing this lmao. I remember my late dad would bet with his friends whenever they watch some sports as well.

Ultimately, there is a social aspect that makes it extra fun. Fortunately, it did not become dangerous for us but maybe because we only do it with people close to us at the comfort of our homes. Worse that could happen is someone killing the vibe e.g. being sulky or salty af.

Card games are mostly used by veterans in my opinion, especially those born before 2000, me and my friends also often do this kind of thing, but we don't bet, we just play and the loser only gets the penalty agreed upon at the beginning.

That's because in my area gambling is not considered a good thing, so if I keep doing it it will have a bad impact on my own family name, gamblers here are not normalized and more humiliated. it's sad that you can't have fun more than just a game.

  I started gambling in a traditional way and it is very common in my country. There are some old gamblers that don't like the casino concept because they are old and prefers gambling in a b traditional casino. I have gone there several time to watch them gamble and partake in one.

One thing that I enjoy in the tradition casino is that they are free with each other and they correct each other on any mistake made. The socializing aspect of it is fun itself.

Many times, even before we became acquainted with what casinos are, there were many games like this that we played and sometimes staked money to make players more serious.

Care has to be taken, though, because there is always the potential to begin to gamble on every potential event and every game that can just be enjoyed, and even unnecessary things that do not require you to gamble. Individuals who have become addicted to gambling like this @OP and to almost every event will not find it hard to become addicted gamblers when they discover online casinos.

I have not gambled out side the casino but then i have seen people who do this, they gamble outside the casino, sometimes they even gamble on casino games in the casino placing their bets amongst their self and not actually staking with the casino, this gambling pattern may be violent at some point where the gamblers refuse to accept their losses and end up turning violent the end of the day.

Yup, that's a common thing in the neighborhood if you're living in those areas that's full of population. You'd see something like this as a normal part of people's lives. Gambling with friends and playing card games or even sports betting. I think to be more familiar with what kind of neighborhood is this, you have to be there and I've lived in one kind of it.

I love places like this because people have got more connection and you know every guy for each corners of the streets there and you'll not be touched by any of it. As long as you live together with them well, you'll also be treated well. But sometimes with these kinds of betting, quarrel might happen and it cannot be avoided when one and two parties can't accept defeat or someone is cheating.

No, I haven't done something like that myself but I have seen some people doing that kind of gambling many times and those people really enjoy such kind of gambling.

I believe such games mostly take place between good friends only as they enjoy to win against each other and that's truly a fun experience for them.

Yep there are still many people playing this game in our country but I no longer dare play it again here especially in a public place, because if we get caught we can be punished for 3 years max or a fine of $3500 max.
It's not worth the risk, even if we only bet $1 or only bet with a pack of cigs, the punishment will still be the same.
So for the OP who seems to be in the same country as me, it's better to be careful because we know how the police work here.

This kind of gambling is still very often found where I live, of course because of its distinctive fun style of play. When old friends get together, they really want to spend time together and have fun with the game until late at night. At parties and other events, I also often find people playing dominoes which is a typical game for fun even though they end up spending a little money.

I've tried it, but not often. The atmosphere can sometimes become tense due to increasing losses, but since the main goal is to have fun each of the players will play responsibly up to a certain loss limit. There are no fights, no acts of violence, but gambling activities like this are prohibited and threatened by law.

This kind of gambling is really popular in my region. When you move around here, you see children playing and placing bets on it. Whenever you see adults gather in a place and they are playing any kind of game, most of them are always placing bets, and most of them prefer it to online gambling because they believe they will be able to have real fun. I have also tried it when I was younger, and if I'm honest, it's more interesting than online gambling because people will be able to have conversations, and play with each other. Sometimes when a particular person is spending so much on the bet, he will be stopped from betting, which is going to help reduce addiction.

Yes, and it’s really interesting and fun.

We have been doing also like this before, that time where casinos do not yet exist in our minds. Yes, it's fun and quite exciting as well most especially if you play it with your family members and friends. And as far as I remember, I've heard no violence playing like this before even in our neighborhood. It's only in this time where playing street games becomes very dangerous as it's more prone already to any conflict that would lead to violence. Good thing online casinos have arise.

Hahahahaha this kind of gambling is not that very common in my area in the sense that it is not legalized in my part of country, people hide to indulge in this kind of gambling because once you are caught by the police you will be arrested hence I grew up with that fear and I have never indulge in this kind of gambling and they don't just gamble for fun such that they easily end up with street fighting and violence. We are strictly advised never to come close to this kind of gambling since it is face to face and very prone to fighting which is very bad.

You can also find such scenario among neighbors during the holidays, wake of a person, fiesta and other gatherings. They are playing cards to pass the time. I also tried playing cards but with my friends. Sometimes it is the time that you spent with them is the main reason why you are playing. Catching up with them while playing is I believe common scenario. Thus, you can bet for basically anything not only money, like who will treat for lunch or dinner.

That was the type of gambling we enjoyed before casinos were introduced. It started at home, and personally, I was influenced by my older brothers, which led to my interest in gambling. When I was still learning, there was no money involved yet, but as I grew up, I realized that playing cards became more fun when gambling with money because it gave me more excitement and the opportunity to make money.

Now, the world has turned digital, making online gambling easier, but I'm sure those types of games still exist, and many people still enjoy them because it's also fun to do it face-to-face with people you know.

I grow up to meet this kind of gambling, despite the fact that gambling was banned in my country at that time still I see forks hide to gamble in this manner and for sure it been a good sight to behold growing up, but as time goes on, those that engage in this kind of gambling slowly lost their interest in physical card playing ground to adopt the online format of the games, and if I ask most of them rather says that they prefer online because of privacy and the disturbance they have from the public and police always arresting street gamblers.

Although gambling is forbidden in my country but some of people has did regular gambling by playing traditional card very often and actually my first experience in gambling is not from visiting physical casinos or playing at online casinos because my first experience in gambling is when i was playing the card too it's usually PvP game against other players and at that time i did that with my friends and it was fun because i can beat them all
And about gamble not using the casinos actually i was done that with plenty and usually i was quite often bets on cockfighting and for almost for each week i bets on this game

With the way you're talking about P2P gambling you'll sound like your brain's gonna be blown after you got told that gambling started like this. No such things as casinos back in the days, just two or more people taking it up to chance to find out who's going to eat today or not. Then casinos came in trying to take advantage of this premise with the added promise that they'd try to make sure that no one's trying to cheat the other, which is a big problem with P2P gambling.

Not here to tell you about the history of gambling, the fact of the matter is that I just want you to realize that this is the reality of most things, people gambling by themselves amongst themselves, without ever having to set foot inside a casino. This is what gambling is really like at the microscopic level.

The important one is whether you had won or loss the money,because the winning never give you huge excitement.But the losing of money will give you more sad at the end.For this reason many of the gamblers get away from the gambling,when the loss give the happiness.The gamblers should have the maturity of accepting the money loss in the gambling site.The gambling is always ultimate one,because the gamblers who won the big money will use the money for  satisfying all their desire from long.Do you understand why the cigarettes bet was changed to the money betting,because for the more excitement towards the gambling.

To the majority of gamblers in my country, casino is probably one of the least of options. Other than the fact that casinos are limited, it is quite inconvenient for gamblers to travel just to gamble. And then there's also the restricted outfit, the need to bring bigger amounts of money, and so on. I'm referring to brick-and-mortar casinos of course.

As far as gambling on card games are concerned, many prefer to play in private, in their houses. That is illegal, of course, but that isn't a big deal as it isn't a gambling operation that's run by a company or a gambling lord.

Definitely there are alot of traditional gambling games which people usually participate and play for fun, and also makes alot of money from it without the casino. They are very numerous, as a matter of fact most of this local traditional games has been in existence for long before online casino was discovered, it's like online casino is rebranding of traditional gambling. it is always exciting when you go to the local vicinity and see group of men playing game when gatherd and cracks funny joke while still playing their games, it gives so much joy. For me I have played such games countless times but sincerely not for gambling but just for fun.

Not only I tried card games, I only tried to play with care y cruz, "tanching" ( a game where the gambled money is put in a drawn square on the ground where players have to use a "pamato" to hit the money and move it out from the drawn square.  If the money is successfully moved out of the square, it will be his.)

It is really fun to play a gambling games without a casino because it is an interactive game where skilled is used to have advantage against the opponent.

This is very common in some countries, wherein players are going to gathered at night and then they will play until the early mornings. When I was a little boy I will always witnessed this with my mom, her nephews and nieces playing card games and they seems to be very happy that time even thought at one point, someone is going to lose money in the end.

And when I did grow up, started to play with them as well for fun. And then with neighboring friends, those were the days though. Just bring back memories to me and probably it influenced me to be a gambler,  :).

This is very common in our country, especially in the town where I grew up.
I saw a lot of people getting addicted to this kind of gambling. Mostly you can see people playing this at the burial of someone who died, every night. Some people spending too much to play here, losing too much amount of money and some are winning too much also.

To share with you lots, it is much more widespread with gambling on the street and can be done here in my hometown in many ways, such as through card games, sports betting, cockfights, billiards, or through some informal pools for betting. These gambling practices had became our socialization and had been our tradition, so to say. Well, I don't have much personal experience with this sort of gambling, for I've always watched them and liked the results. Surely these games can be very fun and relaxing depending on their circumstances and personal values, but, as I've said a thousand times, gambling itself is a likely possibility to bring financial consequences, and always runs the risk of making it addictive, so it's better to limit it.

Any person that has gambled at some point during their lives has tried gambling this way, as even if they prefer to gamble at their favorite casino, at the same time there is nothing like playing against your friends and beat them.

So not only there is an economic incentive to gamble this way, but the bragging rights you can get, especially if you have a great night, are incredible, to the point I know a lot of people that prefer to gamble this way and not give their hard-earned money to casinos.

Nothing new about this kind of gambling because it exist since a long time ago, it's fun, but it's not good in the long run. Usually people who play this games are either poor or low middle class people, once they get close with you, they would ask a money from you and they not improving your life to be better.

You know, be careful to bring people into your inner circle.

That's weird tradition for me. I'm not sure how can people are happy after someone died

This was one type of gambling we knew while growing up but it was heavily criticised by parents then because most times it ends in fight and problems. The rules were awkward especially the one that says that the game must continue until the loser said he was done. In other words, the winner cannot end the game irrespective of how long they have played. Thisade the game time consuming and extremely boring.

Personally I never loved gambling then because most of the people involved in gambling then were poor, so there was nothing to attract me to gambling then. It was when I learnt about pools I started gambling.

This game of cards is very popular in many countries but when you are playing it physically with friends etc (as shown in the above picture), most people will not recognise it as gambling.
I know many kids and teenagers will play this card game without betting or gambling (involving money). They do not think it as a gambling and consider it just a card game.

If we play this card game without money, would you consider it gambling?

It was common a few years ago to see young people fighting because of disagreements during gambling. This was because the most popular kind of gambling was physical or traditional bets. But I think the introduction of online gambling has changed many things. Most gamblers are no longer interested in these local forms of gambling, which are prone to error, disagreement, and sometimes violence.

When I meet old friends that we once gambled together in the past, we still engage in this form of gambling. This is not usually for money but mainly for fun. But we prefer to play sports games like snooker, table tennis or football. Playing these games together reminds me of the old days when there online gambling. One can still find these physical games interesting since you will have to contribute to or determine the outcome.

If we visit some remote villages in some Asian countries, especially Southeast Asia, we will find many types of games or bets that are indeed carried out without place called casino, they only play at home or some places used to gather.
I have found it several times but tried to play only few times and that was long time ago when I didn't really know online gambling, there are also some card games that they only play for fun without money and bets.
Seeing people playing like that even without money they show happy facial expressions, they seem to entertain themselves and of course there are some special pleasures that may not be obtained if playing in casino.

In my neighborhood it is also like that, many people here play cards or dominoes as a form of entertainment and socializing between residents. Usually they play with light bets, like a few dollars, and no one feels burdened when they lose and everyone just enjoys it. It has become a tradition here that people gamble to fill their free time and just have fun with other people. And so far there has never been a problem because the people here are like relatives and understand that they gamble for fun.

It should be like that everywhere, though it's not. Gambling for a good time with the pals or by yourself. There is nothing like that in my neighborhood, so it's interesting to read your and others' perspectives and experiences in your own home area. Thanks! ;)

I personally don't like gambling with people I prefer to gamble alone my reason is most people try to come up with schemes to cheat and sometimes you wouldn't even notice...in my experience this style of gambling tends to have outbreak of violence due to disagreements between the gamblers..some people who prefer this traditional system of gambling don't usually stake a huge amount of money, in my opinion it's quite better than online or land based casino because you won't be losing too much money

Yes, we gambled like this back when I was really young.
Just in the streets, inside the house, the backyard, anywhere as long as there's someone who will bring a deck of cards. We play our local card games like "tong-its", "pusoy dos", "pusoy way", and more.
Our bets are very low because we just doing it for fun or if we are too bored and have nothing else to do. Back when I was a kid, I was also playing these same games but the bets are different. The lose will have to put charcoal in his face, baby powder, or lipstick, depending on what's available. That's because in our house, gambling is not allowed and we are too young to do so.
When I was a bit older my friends and I would play poker in their house during weekends as our relaxing time. I can say I played a lot of gambling without the need for a casino before. That's because we also know how expensive it is to go there.

before these popular casino and online gambling became a thing, traditional gambling have long exitsted and gained popularity across the world for a very long period of time. Almost every household in my locality has this card or most commonly, WHOTE in thier homes and you can easily trace out the way your gambling journey started from this playing of whote. It wasn't played with money at the start but with time, it progressed to a point they prior knew that they can gamble through it and a lot of youths got involved it it. The disadvantage with traditional gambling is that it doesn't always end well in most cases. Might start off peacefully but the end is always disaster. You can sit from the comfort of your home and stake some bets in an online casino and lose as much as $500 a night and no one gets hurt but try losing that kind of money or anything close to that in this kind of gambling and you will see how hell will be let looses and you will be tempted to tag your friends that won as your enemy. Thier is a lot of disadvantage with traditional gambling that makes the online betting platforms and advantage over it and it's just good that we've evolved from it. For purely fun sake, whote is a good game for it but for the sake of gambling, it's never an option for me except it's an app that allows me to it agsjnf someone that's not physically present.

It's true, in my opinion, that there is a bigger risk of being cheated on, however, the experience which you may have without people like that, is priceless, in my opinion. And, as you said, there shouldn't be high sums involved, so scammers would not even be interested.

Such card gambling games are indeed exciting, with small bets but we can enjoy the game with people we know. but I don't like playing like that because there is a possibility that two or more players who participate can compromise to beat other players.
I prefer to bet directly with friends for football matches that are broadcast live on television. we enjoy the match while determining the bet before the match starts. or more interestingly for unprofessional football matches that are held in our area. the more we don't know the quality of the teams competing, the more exciting it is for us.

I have done this but this is such a distant memory as I remember before the 2000-s when Internet and online gambling were not as massive as they are nowadays and we played a game with 4 guys that was called "5-floor" and I have forgotten the rules now but it was one of the most addictive games that all the country was hooked into it in that time.

Of course now it is a different thing as no one plays such traditional game anymore,everybody is focused on online gambling and everyone is also focused to get a lot of money quickly and that is why a lot of addiction lately on gambling world.

It is funny how easy it is to gamble with something valuable and trade it for chances, like chances to make it more and multiply it. Definitely, this has been around for ages, and it’s really interesting to see and watch people have fun at it.

I did try it a couple of times, and it’s fun as well. It’s just a bag of chips—old times, lol.

I am not a fan of this traditional mode of playing cards games, because of it repacusion on some of the gambler, I remember they use to bet with money and even properties, I still won't forget a scenerio that played out one certain time when a card player in this kind of gambling style lost his power bike, infact he rode the bike to the card playing ground around my community and saw some strangers playing the card games and they bet with all manners of they properties, and he staked with his bike and unlucky for him he lost, and at that time it down on him that he has gamble away his precious bike, infact the guy cried that day but still the bike is gone.
This is the reason that I prefer online cryptocurrency gambling more than physical casino because of this kind of incidence where the gambler will be tempted to bet with his properties.

Card games have existed for a very long time, and probably people who play them very often play for "interest."  In our country, it is called so. But if we, visiting online casinos or any offline casino establishments, hope for luck, then in card games, you can often meet scammers. Cheaters remember the entire layout of the cards of their opponents very well and also resort to various deceptions that normal people cannot notice during the game, very often leaving their opponents practically naked. People play for everything that can be bet, not only for money but meeting such cheaters, they still end up losing.

That's a harsh reality and a minus to this type of "traditional" gambling. And usually people, of course, even wouldn't see it coming for them.

This reminds me of my high school days. We use Whot, Dice, Pen or Pencil and many other things to gamble. But ever since I have been gambling on a casino, I do not gamble with people again. Although, I still play Whot and Dice games with people but not to the point of using them to gamble.

Looks quite familiar, here we call the game as "remi" and it can be both paid with money and without money (for fun) and we use point system (as shown on your image in the paper).
As I believe that we are from the same country and I also believe that it is the game I call with remi, for sure I have played it many times in my village both with real money and without money.
This is one of the most played card games in the area where I live, aside that there are also other type of cards game such as domino and chinesse card (ceki).
This gambling was like a traditional games from my grand-grand father era IIRC, and it is still being played until now although the number of players is decreased a lot due to the fact that gambling is illegal.

20 years ago in my country it was very common to see people sitting down playing cards where they put money in, the winner took all the money, but as time went by the government of my country put laws on gambling, encouraging people to play on websites or physical casinos so that people could have fun without committing a crime. And people stopped playing cards where they put money in and started to play in the appropriate places and allowed by the government of my country. When I go out on the street I see people from my country entering the offices of the betting houses in my country, I see them entering the physical casinos and I see them talking about the online casinos they use.

I also see people sitting down playing on their phones. probably the people of my country listened to the recommendations of my country's government because in the past when they played cards or football and bet money, they got into big fights because the loser didn't accept that he lost and since there was no one neutral to resolve the conflict in a friendly way, things became very violent and ended in injuries and arrests. I used to play with my friends and bet money, but I also stopped doing that 15 years ago because I saw that it always ended in fights.

Referring to the screenshot you shared, actually very familiar with this type of game. I even forgot the last time I played it with friends or neighbors, not infrequently we play types like rummy games when there is a traditional celebration event. interesting, this reminds me of the past with traditional gambling and the warmth of family ties that are woven in the middle of the community environment. referring to the title of this thread, for me personally there is a different pleasure between traditional gambling and Casino-style gambling in this era. I think, many of the community have experience between traditional gambling, land-based casinos and online casinos that are currently being played. all have differences between one and another, but what is certain is that gambling will always involve money in it. a little difference from my experience, traditional games or traditional gambling are often played among people we know, we can even play it while laughing and enjoying the atmosphere. in land-based casinos we can enjoy gambling more with a different atmosphere, plus supported by facilities that pamper every visitor. online casinos, are currently more popular because they are easier for us to play. no need to bother to gather gamblers, or visit land-based casinos, we can access it whenever we want according to our free time. btw, traditional gambling games are currently rarely found or even played. the reason is none other than because of work activities and also family, moreover online casinos are much more private for us to play and enjoy.

Social aspects of gambling is what made gambling famous in the first place. Sitting with your friends and looking over cards with great interest, looking to beat your friends in good spirits and joke with them, talk, laugh. It's great.

If this was possible to be replicated online then online casinos would make big bucks, because games like poker and blackjack tables are so fun to sit besides others if they're good sports too. But online poker and card game tables are very faceless and emotionless. In many poker tables now you can't even type in the chat freely... So really it's like child locked games oddly enough. I guess this way it's cheaper for casinos to run the games but the people that like the social aspect have it much worse and are likely to never play these games online.

So for me also in-person card games have many advantages and if given the chance I would prefer them.

Tried it a lot during childhood since backyard gambling that time is still not illegal in my country. Gambling is done casually on every houses in my neighborhood and we even have a bingo playing outdoor exposed to the public so everyone will join.

The experience is much entertaining since you are risking money against other players. Even with just small money involved you will be on adrenaline since I value my moeny that time since I don’t have source of income rather than my parents wallet.

I still preferred the traditional when it comes to gambling with pure entertainment because there’s a companionship involved on traditional gambling style which you can’t on playing online gambling games.

This type of homemade party type gambling is very common in the Asian subcontinent and there are often fixed groups who are running this game with their money. The booze and the smokes are the common dishes of the players and almost always money is involved.

That money is often not clearly mentioned and they will bet with just their words, that so much so will be given to you later on. Hence a a newbie never go to these parties and join their games.

They are often played by unemployed men living on their wives' money and most of the times are dead drunk.

I was very happy to see a good response and it turns out that there are a lot of people who are nostalgic about the game, although indeed in street games like this if the stakes are bigger it will make a bad impact, let alone cheating, things like this will be a big conflict between them.

Yes, it's called "remi", we are from the same country, and it is very familiar in our country, I think all generations must have seen or played it in Tongkrongan, Ronda posts, or old men's gathering places.

Sure, I have seen things like these happening, specially when I used to visit my grandmother house by the coast. All afternoons there was a little meeting, in which people who wanted to play cards gathered and started to wager actually cash.
They played traditional games from this country, using Spanish themes cards.
The thing which caught my attention the most if how they all started to smoke cigarettes as soon as they started to gamble and play cards, from those experiences I have had with gamblers at my grandmother's house, I have come to the conclusion there is some directly correlation between people who gamble and at the same time, those who consider themselves to the active smokers.

Anyways, sometimes engaging in this kind of games without going to a fancy casino can be a pleasing experience, as long as the guests are not drinking excessively and Lossing control over their actions... ::)

That's reality, we often see gambling like this in rural areas on the Asian continent and the average unemployed player needs entertainment when they gather somewhere, initially they play to bet on goods or provide a challenge for the loser but they need a challenge to win so they will bet using money.

Lol, they even cheat their wives asking for money to buy coffee and cigarettes but they use the money to gamble, this kind of behavior is not appropriate to imitate this kind of gambler, we must gamble with our own income and do not involve other people's finances in gambling and avoid using borrowed money to gamble .

Yes, I have been to such an environment in the village but I have not had the opportunity to experience it. The card games they play definitely vary depending on the region. If you just want to play games and the people around you are willing, you can always create the right environment. But in my opinion, if I am going to have a gambling experience outside, I would go to the casino to get good service as well as gambling.

A lots of time and interesting thing is I have done this few hours ago in the evening with my friends. But the game was different that was the luddo here we did bet on 4 cigarettes I know it's harms to our health but we did it occasionally when we the friends get meet up together. And the picture you have mention on your topic the game we called Tāsa khēlā and we do also these kinds of betting to each other with luddo , chess game and many others of our local games and these are not only fact about the gambling these are the nostalgic things we have done or do with our firends.

I've gambled this way myself. This is how I started playing and how I learned to play cards. At first we'd play basic games for fun then gradually try blackjack and finally traditional poker and texas holdem.
As kids we'd play using matchsticks, then ventured into real money territory, first with small coins, then bills, finally we had real casino chips to feel like the real thing. The only difference was that we'd divide chips equally between players and each of us would put money on the table that would go to the winner at the end of the game. It's a very nice way of spending time with your friends.

I've seen this type of local gambling so many times in my neighborhood. Older people prefer playing games with their friends and placing bets on them. I still remember growing up when I and my friends would bet on cards or the wellkown ludo games. Sometimes to avoid it turning into a fight at the end we give our bets to someone who doesn't take part in the game till we get the winner for each rounds. The games goes on and on and the wins keeps cycling till a winner is emerged. So yes, this a quite an old gambling amongst so many people. The fun in traditional gambling is that you get to see the bet as you play and already target your wins or losses.

This form of gambling is very common in my place. I have played several with my friends, but we didn't gamble with it; it was just a mere competition for fun. But I know some groups of gamblers that play the same kind of game for the sake of gambling; they stake real money, and whoever wins will take the money. Sometimes too, they could have the audience watching them and staking on an individual player who they think is going to win the competition.

Well what's more interesting is like that, even though there are only 4 people in the game but the audience can also bet and choose who will win the game, it's a much bigger victory that will be obtained because usually many people really believe in their choice and have a lot of differences in players who are bet by the audience.

Although there is rarely this kind of thing in my neighborhood, but once in a while it does become a betting arena by the audience even though the person playing does not bet with the player.

It's the same for me. I've gambled for so many hours with friends over beer and pizza. We spent so many happy evenings back when I was in college and every weekend was a time to celebrate. Basically Fridays were the time to get drunk and play some poker, unless the weather was good enough that we'd go to pubs, or there was football on TV :D

All those who say gambling is bad should try it. Play a poker game with your friends. Bet a few bucks. Use the smallest bills you have, or coins, those are even better. We'd play the equivalent of 50c as a small blind. No harm done, lots of laughs when someone was caught bluffing.

You call it card game right?
Okay from my local we calls it whot most times people bet on whom to win while, for long people has been doing kind of bet without even going to the casino house to gamble. But what I don't like about this gambling is that most times the lose don't always remits their part of money, that is why there is always a board man to have those cash at hand from the original bettor so to settle the person who wins the game. There many gambling styles I have came across without people going to casino to gamble instead they stay off from the site.

Traditional setup with friends and relatives. I've done this before and it was one of the best experiences that I have ever done.

Not a lot of bets are allowed and I should be fine to lose everything because buying-in isn't a lot and that's just a friendly game but with some bets on it.

I guess to those that haven't experienced this, you have to experience that and compare which is better. Being alone but you have a lot of peers on the chat box of the casino or the actual chatting and talking while playing with any cards game.

I’m not sure how you play card games in your area but usually it was done instant payment every round to the winners since this game can’t progress on the next round without payment.

Besides this kind of game usually just involves peanuts bet to assure that everyone will enjoy without spending much on the game.

Yeah people can decide to gamble with any amount they want without having to stake much In it to make the funess of it goes round to people who are betting as time winning.

This is how most people does it, the player themselves do stake whom to win, while people outside can also stakes on whom to win. Like 2 or 10 person's may stake on whom to win, but if they don't accept that player 'A' would win, then people bet on player 'B' those who stake on play A if they won all the amount stake on player B would be given to those who stakes on player A. It is very simple this applicable to the players themselves.

To be serious, I have tried this while I was in secondary school during break period, though we weren't doing it in an open place because we already know the consequences of gambling at our age. But am happy that I was able to stop staking money while playing cards. During those days if anyone sees people playing cards games they think that they are gambling while sometimes they are not stake money on the game at all. Using cigarettes to gamble is not too bad because is not costly in a local shops if I may guess.

Haha remembering the old days when I was with friends with the night post because I didn't want to be bored so I played this game and I think until now I myself still see it... most of them are veterans while young people are more turning to online casinos to gamble.

This card game is just for fun without involving money = ever or involving money too = ever.

For now it is rare to play poker because close friends who used to be there are no longer there they migrate to work far away unless we gather again to the village then we can play for fun again but usually do not involve money just for fun.

Traditional gambling style without a casino Hahhahaha bro I do play card like this every week on Thursday night based on your photo are you from Indonesia hahahha.
Basically Every Thursday I always got a night shift to watch the village and every night the old people taught me how to play card from the Blackjack. 30 card, and 7 clover and from there I get addicted tho there is no money involvement here but somebody who losses are gonna get the punishment.

If I play with my friend usually I play with 1000 rupiah per play is around 0.1 USD  ;D this is fun until you rekt haha

It is fun gambling with your friends in a traditional way because that makes the bond stronger. I could also remember way back when I and my friends will be gambling with the little funds being given to us for lunch during break time in school.

We keep this money by saving it for what we want to buy but when we are opportune to gamble, we take part of that money and place our bets on dice games and poker. One fun thing is that whoever wins at the end of the day will refund little amount back to everyone.

I haven't and this is not common where I live too.

But I traveled to some countries where older people do this casually every day to kill their boredom and they use a small amount of money as betting pot and they just play and play until the day is over and I guess things resume the next day too.

It only works when you know that person so they won't cheat once the game ends.

Yes bro, that's what is called building harmony in friends, even though we are at the peak of victory, we never forget them, we share a little of our profits with our friends who are fighting in the gambling game, in gambling there are no such things as friends, everyone is an opponent to win, but in this group it is implemented in a family manner where they play together, the benefits are shared, never leaving the loser behind, everyone is embraced, it can be called a hobby that can make money, to fill your free time and while chat with other people to maintain friendship.

Card games are games that are played always at night with friends, this is very popular in my area so until now playing it including parents of children easily united in this game.

Usually this game always involves money although not much. But when money is involved it does not show up front and this will be hidden so as not to be discovered by others except those playing.

Will really miss this card game. :)

I used to play the traditional card games as a child. Even though we staked some things of value which the winner eventually goes home with, our little minds then didn't really consider such game as gambling  ;D. Many of us actually started gambling from playing games like this from our homes as kids.

The interesting thing about this game is that, apart from the fact that it can be played both for fun and for money, this game was one of the major fun activity families do then during their leisure times. One significant thing I've learnt from this traditional card game is that gambling can actually be a game for fun and not necessarily something we play just for money. Every action a gambler takes is a product of his mindset.

In my estimation I think it is very difficult to get addicted to this tradition form of gambling. It is slow and boring. There are music's or bright lights. You almost play it with the same people every day who are your buddies and you also know their strengths and weaknesses. The "reward" for winning is so small that it's purpose is to ensure that the other plays take the game seriously.

Sure, I've tried things like that, and games of this nature are pretty common, especially in a laid-back atmosphere. Small-stakes card games, playing for items such as cigarettes or money, is typically a way in which people can get together and socialize while enjoying each other's company. While not taking place within casinos, such a game still serves the purpose of providing a novel source of entertainment
While such games are fine for passing the time, one must also bear in mind that wagering, even if it's just a token amount, can spiral into something more significant. A pastime at its onset can turn into an addiction if not regulated. Therefore, one has to keep setting boundaries and keep playing for fun only and not get too sucked in by the vibe.

Moreover, the social aspects of this game are most fascinating. Such meetings are not just about the cards or the stakes but about unity, sharing anecdotes and cherishing moments with a friend or with a neighbor.

Even before the emergence of casinos, gamblers have been playing bets in this from and trying their best to make money for themselves without any problem. This form of gambling is likeable to end up in violence that is why I don't like this pattern of gambling. Things might go wrong and the other opponent might use the opportunity to cause fight so that he can slightly get a refund when things go tough. I think people that are strong and can resist any attacks are the ones that most participate in this form of gambling so that they can withstand any fight and violence from opponents. Although this kind of betting can be fun if everyone respects the rule of the game.

If I'm not mistaken this is how most of us started gambling because this is the game you can play with just some few friends with a low amount of money.  One thing I notice about gamblers that plays this particular game, they kind of gamble with just the monetary can afford because it is a game that can't generate much amount of money for gamblers. One thing I love about games like this is that people mostly want to play just to have fun but not because they are desperate for money.  It is a game that is mostly played either with some groups friends or family members in my region.

If all agrees or could agree that we gamble basically for the fun then with a touch of profit then this is just one among the perfect form of gambling to catch those happy moments especially when it's done within peers. Like you said, it's difficult to get addicted but I don't accept the fact you said boring and slow, I know the very fun in this traditional form of gambling despite the profit being not much due to limited number of people pertaking in it.  This traditional style is a safe space, limited to addiction and a good way to pass out time, more out of conflict when it's being done within friends instead of some random dudes on the street.

If you are raised in the locals, you will definitely play this card, mostly for fun and putting some pennies to gamble, and the winner takes it all. Moreover, it mostly ends up in fights because some people that have more experience on the game usually cheat, and most of the time if you don’t put more attention on it, you will not notice and they will use the cheating to win. That is why people will fight if they find out the winner cheats. So they will not agree to give him the money, and that will definitely cause arguments, then fight. 
 
I can still remember an incident that happened when we were kids because of this card gamble. A friend of mine lost one of his eyes because he cheated, although that happened based on his greediness because he wanted to achieve all the four candies that had been staked, so as we found out he cheated, one of us hit his eyes with a stone. 

This game is common if you visit garage where cab riders and some mechanics dine and joke together and I think this way of gambling is the real definition of having fun because here, there is nothing like money involved or any money motivation, just pure vybes for what they love smoking. There are some you will see where people gamble with bottle of liquor just to get more shot and the liquor are expensive ones, not the usual cheap beer.

Though I'm not the type that smoke or drink but I will love another version of this when I hangout with my friends. This are the type of gambling you remember and you all laugh it out, it's because of money but because of the fun it gives and you don't really bother about the loss even when you lose to your friends, unlike when you lose to casino and you get angry because your mind is there and expecting something in return .

You could be right thu but I still see it as addiction is very much possible. Now how do we talks about addiction, to me is simply means anything you do regularly with or without money being attached to it that you can't do a day without such person getting involved to that particular play, it could be gambling, smoking, clubbing and womanizing all these are things that one could easily get addicted to due to their regular and constant involvement to it. So in this your case, even though it's a traditional gambling methods one could still gets addicted to it because it's a play that involves one or two persons so there is likelihood of getting addicted.

in many cultures I think it is absolutely something very common.
in Italy, it is often a practice done by the old people or maybe by people who find themselves drinking in a pub.
But I think its like the same people are doing just playing poker within friends...
More over, if you take in count the amount that can be won, even if there is "gambling" behind it we are talking about really laughable figures.
it's just a way to spend some time.

Not only do the bet on someone who would win, at times they go as far as betting on someone who would lose the game and that is a difficult one but the odds are high and anyone who think otherwise would gamble with the other person. Whot games are one interesting and fun local gambling games. There are no literally no room for partiality as anyone who wins will unfailingly get his cashout. Where you can find whot gambling could be in the school, institution, offices, social gatherings, family meetings.

We all can make gambling at the comfort of our homes with friends and family as shown in the image above, this is one of the moment we can enjoy some of the ties we keep around those close to us with gambling, we may not have to make use of the casino before we can play bet and gamble in some situation, because this alone will tell more about how gambling is seen as a means that bring people together in having fun.

I don't think that's how things works because there is no fun it then why people want to win it in the first place, the eagerness to win the game and take the money from pot is the driving force if they doesn't want to take money from others they can simply ignore the betting portion and just continue it as only a game.

Well, I didn't understand what they were saying cause I don't understand their language but the translator told us it's part of their daily routine and it's gambling.

And have a good time, for sure! ;D

Gambling is more fun when the price is lucrative, I support this type of gambling, you don't even have to use money, I know some friends that bet PS4 brand new and deep freezer for gambling prize, it was years ago though, they all contribute to buy the prizes and they go head to head in gambling game aka cards, and the winner takes the ultimate prize.

This worked only if the group of friends supports and understand each other, the main reason why I always try to avoid this type of gaming is misunderstanding from others, it is why fights break out among friends when they gamble.

I agree if it goes with the friends that you know and it's okay for your group to place such bets, it's a totally viable plan to spend some time and have fun.

You should try it more often because this is a good way to experience  the real gambling but also know that with this type of gambling, there is always a high risk of violence as any individual losing too much might get violent and decide that he is not going to keep to the agreement of the deal then others will want to force him and then everything become violent. When playing this type of gambling, I always make sure I go with an additional individual to help protect me if things are getting out of  hand and for me to have an extra buddy to look out for me and to observe if I am being cheated as there is always alot of cheating going on with physical gambling like this one. This type of gambling are usually found in the rural areas like getto that streets boys are always found and they are very troublesome.

This kind of gambling is very old in my area and I remember when we used to indulge in it as a student in the university, but one bad thing about it when compared to gambling with a casino is that in a casino, you can quit when you want, but in this one, you cannot quit until all your funds are drained, and even if you want to quit before your funds are drained or, then you must return all the funds you gained from other the multiple times you won, after settling out you may even go empty handed while others continue gambling with your hard earned funds. In my area then, it leads to serious fights when a gambler wins so much and wants to quit to utilize his funds for better thing. I do not know who set those rules, but it's very much observed, and this singular act discouraged me from getting more involved in the gambling aspect of playing cards as a student.

Old friends shouldn't be avoided at gambling. I have already mentioned somewhere in my posts that I have a custom  to play poker among friends outside casinos and we are gambling more than often.  

Doing this I  reap the benefits of both gambling and hearty talks on various topics including politics, economics   ... women at the end.

It's an experience worth going after ;D Lucky you!

This is normal in most places of the world where people would have an informal understanding and agreement of betting with some conditions attached to it. Although it is not always strictly adhered to, it's always fun, to say the least, as it helps spice up the fun better than playing games ordinarily.

My wife and I engage in this kind of betting often but she hardly gives me my wins because I win her most. :) If we started, with the gist and other extras, we might be on it for hours without noticing the time has been far spent, which has already served the purpose. But in some settings, they could be strict about the agreement.

Yes, I have. I still gamble on traditional gambling in between days without being busy if a friend invites me to play at a place. Gambling in a traditional way is interesting not only because of the target of winning but there are other pleasures that I get when playing. One of them is being able to meet face to face with friends who have not met for a long time.
The type of bet is not always in the form of money, but in the form of goods. The rules of the game were that once the loser paid for food and drinks as well as cigarettes.

This is very common in my country. Elderly people in our community usually play in the afternoon. But nowadays, they are playing in a place somewhere secluded or a bit far away from the street since the Police Mobile sometimes does a round, and if you get caught, you will pay a fine. But before, it was allowed; there was no problem even if you played openly or beside the streets.

Yeah it is,often times I isee elderly ones gather at a certain spot and play this traditional Chess and they do it staking money so the winner goes with it which is actually Gambling and theirs is done very matured without been biased to each other.

But comparing it with this age what I observe is that,the youths cause of greed ALWAYS generate arguments,fights and quarells within themselves which makes them vulnerable to the society but this elderly ones know what they are in for and when disagreement arise they also know how to tackle them.

We always did this back when I was a stay-in at work. It was a friendly and entertaining match to shake off the pressure in our work. The idea was not to beat my other co-workers. The winners ended up spending half of their earnings on a snack.

You don't have to go to a casino to play your favorite card games. You can invite your friends to play your favorite card games, and you can even play dice games and have one to host. But it should be for fun, and you all want to be entertained.

I tried something different than that with my brother but not with money because we are prohibit playing card using money by our parents. Yeah, that was in my teenager but I am not doing that again for some years so I miss that time and I hope I can repeat it again with my brother. But I have been watched some old people playing card game together in one of their house and they say that is for fills their time. Playing card game can be excitement especially if we can beat all of the player but if one of us have a high skills or have their luck, we can't beat him and only lose our money if we use money. Sometimes the bet is not money but something that looks worth for them such as buying food or drinks, pay bills in grocery store and else. Well, that will makes your day but you must knows when you need to stop because playing card game can makes you forget the time.

Yeah man, I understand what you're saying about the older folks playing Chess and gambling in a more mature way. It's true, nowadays the youth can sometimes let greed get the best of them and cause arguments and fights. It's important to learn from the older generation and approach things with more maturity and wisdom. And hey, go Roma, sempre Forza Roma!

Casino is only for social life , we are traditionally playing with our friends  and families also sometimes with people we have just met , and yeah its enjoyable with small chance of losing (because the house edge is too little than casino houses)

All the things that the youth's are doing today is not new things because both the elderly ones they have already done so in the past (during their youthful ages). When the youth's have an argument or fight when they are gambling is because someone among them did not buy others ideas because of money. But if they guys are not betting with money it's and they have an argument it might be because of cheating.

We had done this before too and I can say that was fun because we talked about life, work, and other things like our childhood experiences and then we also had drinks while playing.
Most of the time our problem will be on who will be the dealer because no one likes to be in that position as you are not literally playing but just watching everyone play. So, to make someone do the job we pay him well on whoever wins the pot and we also give him free drinks so that he will be our initial dealer then we rotate just to be fair, so he can also play.
Fun times and I can still remember those moments, somehow I miss it.

Yes
That’s nice
It’s all fun and games at this age but of course when we talk about bigger businesses than things will end ul differently

Do you remember at what age you stopped playing like that?

You are from Indonesia, and i'm the same, so what answer do you expect from me?

Online gambling players in Indonesia definitely come from physical gambling first, i remember that i have known gambling since i was in elementary school. I saw several people gathered in a quiet place, when i came i found that they were playing poker. So it took a few days for me to get the courage to get involved in the game, from there my gambling started until now i play it online.

This thing about getting together with friends to play Poker and have a few beers , Making a hoe, that's something that's very good, it's very enjoyable and you have and spend a different, quality time, it's something that many of us long for to happen, I personally have always said that every time we're playing anything, the best thing is to have fun, as it is about playing without money and with friends, it's exciting, just the fact of having healthy rivalry Makes everything very good.

Sometimes here, the real players of the game might not  really bet on each other but once the audience have noticed that it is one players that is mostly winning the second players, they will place a bet among themselves and they can keep doing it and making profit while the players of the game are just there feeling motivated that they are expert but are not getting any profit as the dealers.

I don't know when I will get together to have fun with my friends, we have different times now, if we get together again it will be fun and remember the old days of playing when I was unemployed. :D

Of course playing cards without involving money will not be a pressure this is purely 100% fun while laughing to play Yeah I hope to get together again. :'(

Now it is familiar with online casinos most of them play there, without gathering like before and this is very rare although sometimes it is still encountered here.

Matured people are quite different from this GEN-Z generation and this assume that why the elderly people are much matured in coordinating themselves to play the street gambling to the end with violence is due to the high moral standard that was held to an appreciable height in their time as youths unlike now that much moral attitudes has gone rogue.

And more of what has diminished many of these gatherings is the intervention of online gambling saturated all over that with your phone  in your hand within your quiet comfortable corner you can seamlessly gamble on any game of your choice. And one of such disadvantage is that the emergence of online gambling has gradually eroded the communal gesture the traditional way of gambling engages people with.

Gambling can be in various forms, even without the presence of a casino. As far as gambling is concern, the fact that everyone has its own bet and whoever win will be rewarded, that's certainly gambling.

I actually grow having this kind of gambling at home. Casino was not that famous before, some don't even know that it exist. So just to cut the boredom and get everyone entertained, playing cards is what our common type of bond. Actually we don't see it as kind of gambling, but more on a game that will create a bond on our family and friends, because even our father or grandfather do not fail to join the betting game.

Yep, it's a great bonding experience, it sounds like it at least ;D

Without a doubt, bears are like that, I personally have tried to tell some to go to the casino, and from there play online, but there are some who do not take it seriously, when they are told a casino it means that for them they are going to Spend a lot of money and so they do not do it, in addition there are some who come home very late from work and well, they have a wife and I think their wife also causes them problems because of that, there are many cases for which sometimes you can't, nothing like getting together, having a barbecue, beers and playing , the truth is that is really needed and I think it is for any person in the world.

Traditional and street gambling have always been their before casinos and modern sports bets, I don't see them going extinct anytime soon. Different cultures have their traditional games and some people places bets on them to make it to become gambling. I still see matured people that gathers in the evenings at their spots to gamble, they mostly play ludo, draft, cards and other traditional games, they always comport themselves. There's street gambling where you'd mostly see hoodlums playing cards and dice, they'll always try to cheat each other and violence normally erupts. Presently most gamblers patronizes casinos and sports bet shops because they're more organized and you can go into their establishments to gamble or quietly do so on your online decide.

People really have different preferences when it comes to gambling, and not everyone is into online gambling. For me, if I have plenty of time, I’d much rather play cards with friends and family. I find it more enjoyable compared to online gambling. I’m lucky that gambling is acceptable in our family since most of us are gamblers—that's the perk, LOL. But seriously, traditional forms of gambling will stick around, especially in areas where internet access is limited and people aren’t that educated about online gambling yet.

You can say this is an old way of P2P gambling where no central body is involved, meaning there is no casino organizing this gambling but the friends themselves gambling based on the mutual understanding. Where this model has some advantages that there will be no extra cost and rules can be adjusted as per our own ways but we have a lot of disadvantages too like with no central control the influence of one person/party can be more over the other and that may lead to cheating etc.

Also in this trading gambling way, you can only gamble with the people you know and they may not be always available at the same time to gamble. With casino, you can play at any time because there are always online gamblers available for P2P gambling.

I believe you are mixing things, those older folks you mentioned do not gamble in most cases but often have a friendly gaming experience among their peers. The youth of nowadays are engaging in such a way too, they often do it with their friends, especially video games and others without the involvement of money, so it is not gambling in that sense and the argument will be less.

The only issue is that they would also want to make money through gambling but they often do that with casinos and sportsbooks rather than always betting among friends. Betting among friends is once in a while, it's never what we can term serious gambling. However, as humans and younger folks, they can't be as wise as the old folks, so cheating and arguments will always cause some commotion and even quarrelling. If a friendly gaming experience could cause that, how much more when money is involved?

I like to play this game but not involving any bets whether it's money or cigarettes, only the punishment that must be done by the losing player. Once in a while I experience what you said by seeing a group of people playing the game involving bets, the bet is money where there is an amount of money determined by each player and for the winner he gets it all. I admit this game is fun, I myself like traditional games like this.
As far as I know, this kind of game can be played with a minimum of 4 people because I always play this game with three of my friends sitting in a circle. However, I think not all countries may play this game as gambling, some may prefer to do it in a physical casino.

Traditional gambling style has been the oldest type of gambling before it was modernized to online casino. I myself have played traditional games countless times but I never gambled with it because I was small then I would be dealth with if I do such. The popular traditional type of gambling that is mostly find in Africa is the checkers. But it is quit funny seeing old men gamble to be rewarded with cigerate hahaha. Let me ask you is awarding of cegirate also gambling?

Someone is doing that here in our country, where the players only play in a subdivision house and sometimes in some provinces as well. If I look at them at first glance, it looks like they are just playing cards for fun, but it turns out that they are playing poker as a game with bets.

There are also people in other countries who play like that even if it's not in the casino itself, because what I was used to before was the ones I could only watch in the mainstream media, like billiards events and sports games.

Such games are commonly played by people in the village. although using bets but if it is not shown and does not arouse the curiosity of others, adding some money or cigarettes as a bet is not a problem.
I often play this kind of direct game with people in my environment. I am quite comfortable with this game because everyone will bet in small amounts. no one will intentionally bring large amounts of money to play. Games like this are clearly just for fun. gathering with friends to play cards while some others play chess. that usually happens in my environment.

I have spend a lot of time of my youth/university years playing Texas holdem poker (not regularly, but probably on Fridays after lessons). The buy-in were almost symbolic and such gambling was more a time killer than a try to get some money, or to show skills over opponents. Of course we played it incorrectly, because here was no rake. If I remember it clear, not everyone was 18 years old around the table. But that did not bother nor player, no parents, because we better play cards at home, than wander around the street doing nothing.

It's also a better way to kill some time when you are with your friends or relatives, such kind of bonding which usually use to enjoy not intentionally to win money but a pride that you are good in such types of gambling, though there are rural place where people wanted to use this types of direct gambling as form of multiplying their money, a kind of mindset where gambler usually look for someone who have that same thinking and play against each other.

That is happen in my place in a few days ago whereas we gather in one friend's house and spend time together. One of my friends suggest us to playing cards for fun, without money because we don't want police comes to his house ;D
But sometimes I see some people playing card with money in the dark place in my neighborhood when all people take a rest in their house. They doing that with only a few people know but they don't do anything except just passing by the street.
People in my neighborhood doesn't thinks much about them because as long as they don't disturbs other people who passes by at that street, that will not be a problem. But if they do something such as asking for money from people, that will be a problem for them.

Of course! We get together with friends several times a year for a barbecue and always play card games for several hours, the stakes are very symbolic, sometimes we can play for a wish, the loser must do something stupid. The goal of such games is to have a good time and so that no one is left offended, because we do not play for large sums on such evenings, friendship is more important.

That must surely create an ambience and add that extra flavour to your event and make it all the more delightful!The gaffs and jokes especially during hearty card games as well as small stakes which people place for dares can actually open everyone up and create friendships. Perhaps it is also time to come up with an altogether new card game or alter the laid down card game rules in order to spice up a conventional trend. If there are other game ideas that you like, well they can actually amalgamate the betting and challenge concepts. The important thing to consider here is that all may get to enjoy and have a good time to party well without these parties feeling oppressive to some.

I remember when I was a kid we played a card game at home with my dad and brother, some kind of Blackjack, and we also played for money, it was more like entertainment, because every time someone won the whole pot, we again divided all the money equally and the game started again. And even though I was a kid, even then I noticed that it was much more interesting to play this way than just playing with game chips, which have no value.

I find this traditional gambling so interesting and fun you know and it's been played within my domain and people reciprocate based on the fact that money is betted on that so the winner goes with it and there's no fun play without arguments that's what makes it more interesting, just as you watch football matches and argue with your opponent teams that's how it is for this as well.

So it's not like this causes or birth up to violence issues in the society but yes definitely such games usually amount to that but it needs understanding and this is why when it's been played it's required that it's matured minds so there's no cause for regret and disagreement.
I also Love this  game as I played it back then while growing up, sometimes we don't stake with anything but the fun of becoming a winner as the game processes on will give you more  joy.

Yes, it is a game that I often find in the area where I live, often residents, especially those who are on guard at the security post, play poker card games with a joyful atmosphere, but actually not all of these games are played involving money, some are just aimed at filling time with the aim of finding entertainment together. From this game I think there are some negative sides that can happen, especially when the card game is played involving money as a bet, where I often see some people fighting because they always lose and the friend next to them is very lucky by winning in a row in several rounds.

So the conclusion is that even though the traditional card game without a casino looks exciting, it certainly does not mean that it is impossible for unwanted things to happen, especially when the game involves money, meaning whatever type of game and even though there is no casino intermediary behind it, self-acceptance regarding the risk must be prepared by someone who plays, simply if you don't want to lose any money at all, it's better not to participate in the game from the start and it's better for you to be a spectator than to mess everything up.

The casino thing is a recent experience in gambling. It used to be the old traditional way with people gathering around to play cards or other traditional games at their leisure time. Any gambler who's as old as 40 years would possibility had played one of such games in their neighbourhood because those games used to be the in-thing in the 1980s/90s. We still find them till date in remote places without much exposure to the internet or civilization.

I enjoyed playing Whot. Ludo was (is) a bore for me. My best was draughts. This day, casinos have made gambling easier and closer home to such a point that one can indulge in them without leaving the comfort of one's home. Without the internet, the world would still be groping in the dark.

When I was still young and I was in school, that was the last time that I played bet like this. Seriously, it’s really a nice one, you will have time to joke with friends, and the main target of placing the bet is not because of money, just because of the fun. Seriously, the traditional gambling is just more interesting than the gambling that we have currently, and it’s just difficult to get addicted to that kind of gambling because everyone is being cautioned when placing bet, and anyone going beyond the limit is always being asked to stop or to reduce the amount that they want to place the bet with.

Bets like this are just common in rural areas, some people still prefer this kind of bet to online gambling sites because they believe they can have real fun from it since they are betting with people they see, and they do end up talking among themselves.

Love game time like this and it always turn out great when I try it with my friends and family but they are not having time to have fun like this again because of work and how everybody have outgrown quality time being spent together. They now have their own families and prefer to spend time with them instead of making out time to bring the gang together to have fun. The world is changing, covid changed everything, online gambling becoming more popular and preferred than traditional casino and game night like this. We enjoy this more when we were younger and then you did not mind if you lose because you know, the next time you will have a chance to do better. I was always the one that do not win the most but still I do not lose the most therefore I was just in-between and enjoyed myself all round.

We do the same, whenever our friends get together, we either play card games or board games such as chess or another game that is famous in our locality which is called ludo, it's a board game again which is played between 4 people. It's very fun and addictive as well when you play it with your friends.

When we play card games, we don't play casino or betting games, there are different card games that we play with cards where we use a copy and a pen to keep counts, there are teams of two and a total of 4 players playing, whoever scores more, wins the game, but there is no money involved. Those who play card games making bets have separate places because where I live, gambling is not allowed, so they can get in trouble if authorities come to know about it.
