Title: What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?
Post by: alastantiger on December 07, 2023, 08:41:28 AM
If you work as a staff member in a physical casino as a dealer or in a sports bookie, I know that there are subtle ways you can use to encourage responsible gambling that will not go against the terms and conditions for staff.

For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?

What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?

The worker will not say anything. The worker do not have to say anything. Casinos will have rules, their works should not violate any of the rules. What I have noticed is that no worker will encourage you to stop playing, they will not also encourage you to continue playing. It is you that will tell yourself what that is right.

No matter what you tell that gambler to stop playing and walk away, it will be based on his choice, because gamblers don't listen to advice when they are winning. The gambler might feel that you are scared that he will win more money and that you were sent by the casino to make him walk away for the casino not to run at loss, and what makes you think that he will even listen to you.

I don't think that people working in a casino can tell a gambler when to quit or not because that is where their weekly pay comes from, the loss of gamblers. Another thing is that there will be rules and regulation in casinos and if they find out that you are trying to make gamblers gamble responsible by limiting their bet, you might get fired or they will never allow you to go close to the gamblers.

You cannot expect from these staff members that they will tell you to stop gambling or continue to gamble more. Instead, they will only give you their best services so that you will be more encourage to stay in the casino longer. Gambling is a business so as much as possible, they will do everything to increase their profits, even if the gambler itself is already struggling on his finances.

Gamblers should be aware already how to be responsible on their gambling habits prior to gambling. Staffs have also their own jobs, and reminding those gamblers how to be responsible will never be part of their job description.

Have you heard of or seen a hotel manager send a customer away not to spend a month in the hotel? Hey, leave my hotel, you'll spend lots of money, if you continue staying! In business, such advice doesn't exist. Everyone is assumed to be in their right senses. Doesn't it sound like an insult to the gambler? he'll easily go to your competitor's casino, then gamble at ease. Hanging a placard that reads "gamble responsibly" is enough to encourage responsible gambling. The casino also wants to make more money, how on earth will their worker be allowed to continue working if he acts like that to customers? They'll be trained to act the opposite way. Offering drinks to the winner, to feel relaxed and continue wagering his wins. If casinos practice what you advise, they'll all run out of business. The money rewarded to a specific player is what serves as a marketing strategy for casinos to yield more customers. And when they don't calculate well on how it's being issued, the business will crumble. So, telling every winner to go home, is taking the casino one step closer to failing as a business. In some casinos, most waitresses or croupiers don't know much about gambling and are just there to exhibit their skills and get paid.

Most of them don't gamble and can't give gambling advice. They hardly talk to gamblers, unless they are asked a question. Sometimes they can't answer questions correctly and will reply with let me ask a different staff. Gamblers get disappointed when they figure out that a worker in a casino can't answer a basic question about gambling. Remember they are not there to gamble but to work. So, if the management figures out that their worker is a compulsive gambler wouldn't they sack him? despite working in a casino. Business is run in there like any other place. Rules and ethics are made available for workers. And a staff watches the moves and actions of all the employees. The only possible means of rendering such help is outside the casino or work hours. Maybe, luckily, you saw the player in a different location, the croupier is free to usher in their advice to the player. Then wait forever to see him patronize your casino next time.

I agree with your statement.

This is actually a difficult choice for the staff if they truly want to encourage responsible gambling without infringing and violating their TOS. For the safest route, they can just ignore and not say anything to the players. If they make one (1) mistake, then they can potentially lose their jobs, therefore impeding the opportunity for their livelihood.

Again, it is somehow a difficult line to draw especially if you are an advocate of responsible gambling. But if you are a staff working at such casino and you also want to spread the message of responsible gambling, then it is better to quit your job (to avoid any conflict of interest) and be an advocate for such.

This is correct. Every casino workers signed their contract which means they already understand the gambling companies rules and regulations. those rules are prohibited to disobey because it has a corresponding penalty which results in grave offense. Those casino workers are usually watching you to gamble until you've loss all your money yet stil you will not hear any word from them because they are strictly follow the rules. It's always a gamblers responsibility to know when they want to stop or still continue in gambling.

As others have already said, it is very unlikely some casino worker who have direct contact with gamblers will have something to say to them in order to encourage responsible gambling or leave the table when they are winning money. I would be very surprised if on the contracts of those workers some clausules about interaction with the gamblers are not included. In the end, the casino and resorts benefit when people spend money on their services and also when the gamblers end up losing money while gambling. The managers of the casino know it would be counter productive to allow their workers to encourage people to walk away with money.

The ettiquete those workers serving gamblers is supposed to be very polite and educated, so gamblers feel comfortable to come again and continue to have fun on the gambling floor.

And their work is to deal with gamblers regarding on their issue or deal with them while playing but to intervene them with that word saying stop and be responsible while they are playing for sure the owner of casino will be mad of you by doing that then they might get fired since they don't want their worker to act like that since they want to influence their player to enjoy and bet more.

Expect the worker to just watch since this is how they paid, although there are words poster regarding on responsible gambling but for sure they don't really mean it since they just post that to have some nice words but for sure they want people to gamble since this is how the casino earn a lot of profit.

Really? I think not and I wouldn't say that to him even though he is a close friend. There must be separation as professional workers.
As staff, before working at the casino, you are ready with everything the casino aims to do. There is no ability to say “Hey, you made $6k and don't come back here again”.
The casino will fire the staff if they are found out.

If these workers were caught trying to encourage gamblers to stop, then they could be reprimanded from their actions. In short, no worker is in the right thinking to tell gamblers to go home immediately after winning significant amount. That's obviously against their laws as they are trying to sabotage the nature of their business.

I'm not saying these from the points of view for some responsible workers  but for general. Gambling is a big business, so everyone should contribute to the welfare of the gambling casino.

This is such a weird take. No casino staff in their right mind would stop a winning gambler because of "responsible gambling". I would argue that they would only stop someone if he is winning too much. It's similar to those popular gamblers that were banned from certain establishments because they keep beating the house.

Responsible gambling for casinos is more like taking some actions to prevent a player from losing a lot and going towards addiction.

According to me, this is outside of his responsibilities as a casino worker because basically his job is to serve not give advice on how to go out and enjoy winnings. However, if it was really done on his own initiative and maybe if his superiors found out he could be scolded because the casino aims to take more from gamblers. In general these actions will not be in written rules so you just need to make sure what he says is not known by his superiors. I mean that the casino goal is to operate to make the biggest profit possible, and the staff has no authority to determine which  gamblers come in and leave.

Maybe I'll tell him whether that big win just now isn't enough to warrant continuing your gambling game. Maybe I will use other sentences so that he can realize that there is no need to chase another victory because he has already achieved his big victory. However, we must warn them not to continue gambling but then that is up to them because they are the ones who must be responsible for the money they win. If they lose all their money, they are to blame for gambling beyond their limits.

If I'm in the position of a worker, I'd rather make this gambler stay until he went home empty. Maybe I was wrong but assuming that I was in the casino working for the company, I don't think it was gentle to tell a winning gambler to go home, maybe I would say it for those who lose big. Casinos are even happy to have a lot of people gamble and enjoy the place. Why we should stop someone if he still enjoys playing? It makes sense really to just let that gambler continue and he will come back because of his good experience.

Actually I thinks it's not a bad idea trying to advice a gambler to leave the casino with a good win, but not all customers would want to see that you're really helping them, some after leaving your casino they'll go to the next casinos around that area and continue gambling. Though in my area where I reside, we often see cases like this where the staff in charge of placing your bets or paying you, will at some point advice you to leave with you profit, but some person wouldn't take the advice and they'll continue gambling and loss everything. In a real sense the staff advising the gambler is not helping the casino company at that time, and might loss his/her job if they were to be reported by the gambler.

Casino staff have absolutely no right to provide information or advice on what any customer should do in this or a similar situation and many businesses impose restrictions on this. In addition, even though the business he/she works for provides a gambling service, it is unethical behavior for any personnel to warn the customer in this way or prevent the customer from providing more profit to that business.

You'll get fired by your managers for doing that, it's not your business to tell the players what to do how to behave, and what to do with their money it's their money, and whatever reason they are in the casino it is none of your business, you are a misinformed staff if you do that to a player.

The staff's work is to serve the players and not to give advice on what to do and in case a player comes to you to ask for advice it is unethical to give him a piece of advice, your casino is the one paying you your salary and if you shut out gamblers then you don't deserve your salary.

I have never encountered this while playing in a casino the players can complain to the management of harassment if you give them advice on what to do with their money, you should act like a staff and not as an adviser.

Why would I say responsible gambling stuff? I'm a dealer. If paid enough, I'd go hell and beyond to persuade someone to gamble more. If I were forced to say something responsible though, I'd 100% sound like I'm challenging them more than anything than being persuasive really. The lines themselves are good though like, "Ain't you gonna stop? You might lose more" or something like that, maybe even poke some fun by telling the casino loses out with them here but I'd probably put out a sarcastic tone really or something.

If I wasn't paid enough though... who knows.

That is beyond my responsibility, because it is their personal responsibility. And when I work at a casino, of course I will do my best so that visitors can feel at home and feel comfortable in the casino where I work, through the service I provide to each visitor. Because a worker's responsibility is to provide the best service to every visitor.

And if a visitor behaves carelessly by betting a large amount, then a moment later he loses and returns to betting again. It's their business and I won't say a word to stop it. Because after all, the wages I get from a casino, the money is the result of the losses of casino visitors.

For sure there would really be terms and conditions on what are those staffs need to be followed when you are working for such company. If ever there's none then for sure you should really be that careful with your co-workers on which they might really be telling the management or the owner basing up on what you are doing. You are just trying to make people do get out when they are winning which it is really that against with the companies or platforms or business motive which is to make more revenue. Its always better that you should really be that keeping yourself quiet and mind your own job and do whats right if you do love your job and you wouldnt be liking to lose that one. Yes, it is really that something good to make someone realize that they should ran away and call it a day when they are already up but as a staff then we do
know on where our sympathy would be on which it would really be getting in line with the owner because if the business wont be profitable already then you might really be ending up on losing your job
because of lay offs or totally shutdown on bankrupt.

That's not how you encourage "responsible gambling", that's being stupid.

Since you get paid by the casino, your customers should lose money to the casino so you can get paid. If the players get away with profits all the time, the casino loses money, if the casino loses money, they go bankrupt and you will lose your job. This is common sense bruh.

You can't save everybody anyway and responsible gambling is full of bullcrap. It is not the casino's job to encourage responsible gambling.

I remember reading somewhere that casino staff are allowed to say something if the gambler is showing signs of a gambling problem but I am not sure if they are allowed to say to a gambler that they should leave or stop gambling while they are still in profit. pretty sure casino staff need to follow certain protocols when they interact with a gambler who is showing signs of a gambling problem.

anyway, I don't think I'll say something like the one you wrote, I'd probably just say "Congrats".

If you work in a casino, it's important to follow the rules and not remind customers to stop gambling. This could affect the casino's profits and impact the customer's experience. It's also important to know how customers might react to any reminder or intervention. Be sensitive and professional when approaching customers since they're gambling. Some of them might feel that it's your fault if they lost after you encouraged them to gamble responsibly.

The staff will encourage responsible gambling when the gambler keep losing too much money, not when they're make profit. :D

If the staff already recognize the gambler that usually spend for $200, but in the next weekend he willing to gamble for $300, the staff might ask him whether it's okay or not to continue. It's also possible when the gambler gamble too much than the other gambler.

On point! , why would a casino staff bother to concern the players or gamblers to stop them playing, then that staff will lose his job, I know if it comes to humanity and concern to other people that is being swallowed by gambling then its good to do that, but in reality the staff is just doing its job and its not part of their job to stop or encourage players to stop ay they notice that its wasting too much money or being addicted, and no matter what they do, or even they do that, I don't think that a gambler will listen to the staff, it is a casino play so the players maybe fortunate so they will not listen to someone who below them, I don't discriminate the casino staff its just they dont have the position to do so, even if they have a concern the only thing they could do is do their job. A gambler should have their own back and not rely on anyone to remind them of what is happening to them.

Sometimes some staff members of a game house say this but not like they are going to stop booking games for you if you insist. They could do this in a subtle manner by stylishly encouraging the player to stop then if he starts to complain of losing part of his winning, it could in form like" stop complaining if you lose, afterall you have been winning and you can stop playing if you think you have started losing out or you can rest "

I consider such as subtle discouragement from playing and we also have to remember that some of those working in the physical casinos or game houses are relatives and friends, so such relationships exist. Mostly when a lady is a worker, she could advise the brother or boyfriend not to continue but maybe not openly, perhaps slyly.

The casino worker is paid from the proceeds that is realised from bets, so to discourage someone from staking more will be unethical. The staff of physical casinos should always protect the interest of both the gambler and the casino firm. He should ensure that the gamblers and comfortable and given the best service at the same time promote the business of his employees.

Some country mandates casinos to put measures in place that will limit gambling addiction. So in this case these workers can limit the gambling activities of those who have been identified as addicts. They can be barred from casinos and the staff has the right to advise them to leave when they identify any sign of overgambling. I have not read the job description or terms of employment of casino staff, maybe it might contain policies that cover OP's questions.

Though I've never personally read the terms and conditions of a physical casino or know anything about them, from the context of this topic, I can surely say that doing such a thing will be strictly against their rules and a staff member or a dealer cannot say anything like that to a gambler, and if they try to do anything like that, making a gambler stop gambling when they are ahead and go away with profit, and they are caught doing that, they will either get fired or fined heavily.

A casino would never like to see a gambler joining a table and then leaving with a huge profit margin because that will cost them money, and even though it's true that they will earn more than that from another table, they would still want all the tables to stay profitable for them at all times since that is better for business.

So, a staff member will not be allowed to give such tips or pass such comments, and nothing that makes a gambler realize that they should make a responsible decision can be considered within the limit of their duty.

If I were a staff member at a physical casino I would do the same thing as some people have said here, namely not do anything or say anything because if I say anything about gambling responsibly it would be the same as me interfering in other people privacy and that behavior which a staff member should not do because the job of casino staff serving customers is not to provide education to customers.

and gambling responsibly actually rests with each gambler and other people should not provide education like that when they dont know each other, it will create misunderstandings.

If you work as a staff member in a physical casino as a dealer or in a sports bookie, I know that there are subtle ways you can use to encourage responsible gambling that will not go against the terms and conditions for staff.

For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?

Casino dealers are not allowed to say such things. They can chit-chat with the gamblers; however, it is not good for the business if they encourage the gambler to go home after winning. In my experience in a house, some dealers initiate small talk regarding their job or ask about the gambler's small information. Some give a hint or give a piece of advice (which is illegal and not being heard by anyone, this is only between the certain gambler and the dealer).  

I don't know if this is the same scenario in another country, but this is how I experience offline casinos. But I never heard a dealer telling a gambler to go home with your winnings.

Why would you do that you are trained to encourage people to gamble if they are there to make money or just want to be entertained, that's none of your business

That's the easiest way to lose your job, the gambler will likely report you for that kind of comment, if you look at the casino staff, they will just congratulate you but they avoid interaction that will lead to unpleasant conversation because you have no right to influence his decision.

Why do I do it, don't I get paid by the casino, after all it's not my job. The final decision is in the hands of the gambler, when he stops and when he wants to increase the bet with the money he has just won. I prefer to be in a safe position, as a staff member I must have loyalty to the company that employs me. I will work professionally on the side of whoever pays me.

The casino staff will notice you and rat you out to the boss for doing so. The man just won more than $5k and instead of giving him free liquors for him to bet more, you let him walk away? Idk, the boss will let you walk out of that casino without pay. Thats what will happen.

Because this is a local physical casino then most probably you can identify the locals who aren't rich but are inside the casino, you may be able to chat discreetly with them and encourage them to stop.

I don't know if you're allowed in the first place to talk with the players, I think it's against the rules as a staff and especially if you're a dealer or something. It may be a good thing but I think you shouldn't be there if you'll not fulfill the job you're tasked to. For me, I'd just do my job until the very last, gamblers are responsible enough to know that they can handle themselves.

But it is not the job of any employee of any gambling platform to direct users towards responsible gambling. Quite the opposite, because any worker's actions are supposed to be in the interest of the company (the platform), and therefore responsible gambling should never be one of the goals that that worker aspires to in order to maintain the continuity of the company that at least secures his job.
I confirm that if a worker tries to direct one of the players on the platform to what we call “responsible gambling,” his direct manager will suspend him from work without hesitation if he does not force him to pay a penal fine due to his actions that violate the general principles of the platform’s concept.

I do not agree at all because if you let the user walk away with the money, then he will have a reason to come back soon, he will think "This is the place where i win in the past, so, here is my luck". And we have seen that a lot of times in the past. If the user has a good experience in the casino he will be back, you can be 100% sure of that.

As a staff of a casino, I think your job is to ensure your company makes a profit, right? And the only way these casinos could make a profit is when people come to gamble and lose their bet, right? So for me, if I happens to find myself in such a situation as a staff of a casino, the best thing will be to mind my business, while gamblers gamble as it pleases them, because whoever comes into a casino to gamble, may have got a target by which he/she into to achieve before leaving the casino, and I won't want the be that stumbling block preventing anyone from winning his/her target amount.

If I were that staff I wouldn't say anything to that person, that's because it's not that I don't care about what he does, but there are some things that I need to care about and not care about at some time. In this position I was working where my responsibilities were about work which required me to ignore my personal matters. Maybe I feel sorry for that person, but if I forbid him from doing that, it would lead me to something difficult which might threaten my job. Instead of losing my job, I'd better ignore it.

Why would the staff say such a thing that would risk his job. All the casinos have cameras and if the manager sees the staff saying such things then he might have to lose his job.
So I think, remaining quite would be the best thing to do in such a situation. Rest is the gamblers luck if he gets out with profits in his pockets.

This desire should come to him, why do we as staff have to tell him and remind him to stop playing gambling in a subtle way or not? Basically, people who are winning at gambling have a little increased adrenaline, so it seems difficult to tell him and in fact they definitely won't hear it either, usually they Those who win at gambling increase their self-confidence and will continue to play and will not stop until they win even bigger. because greed has been inherent in humans since they were born.

Moreover, why does a staff member have to remind a gambler who won, wouldn't that actually be detrimental to the dealer and cause the dealer to lose money, the staff will not get any money from the dealer if in the end the physical casino really goes bankrupt if all the staff have to tell the gamblers to stop when they win. That's a little strange and doesn't make sense in my opinion  ;D

This is the best way to loss your job because you are working for the casino so that they will get profit to continue the business operation. Lecturing about responsible gambling is not on your job description.

As a casino staff. It’s unethical to said anything that will encourage gambler to stop gambling. Maybe just remind them to play responsibly when they are already heated due to the loss but I will never give an advice whenever they are winning just to make them secure profit because I’m working with the house and they are paying me to bring profit to the casino.

I think it's very 'rude' of a casino worker to stop people from gambling, nor it is beneficial to the casino for their workers to stop gambling. If you are a dealer, then your only job is to keep the play going and nothing else. I know there is a dedicated department that works with what you're talking about in a gambling platform setting, so you can just continue dealing cards or making sure that games are continuing on your table.

Also, you will be reprimanded if you talk too much as a dealer aside from compliments or short one-liners, especially if you discourage anyone from gambling. Keep your mouth shut and do your job to keep your job, and let those gamblers deal with their own money. They were there because they have the dough, and whatever happens to their money is their responsibility, not yours.

As far as I know, operators or staff who work at online casinos have an oath or work agreement that must be kept confidential and are responsible for the behavior of gambling players and also the applicable casino rules.

My understanding is that there is no definite incentive for the players, except: outside of the work they do, but if they act responsibly for encouragement I don't think there is.

I think it is unprofessional to do that because it is against the ethics of your work as a staff of that casino. Doing that would mean you are encouraging gamblers to stop visiting your casino because some gamblers might take it as an insult on them while some might also see the reasons behind your advice but your casino would not take it lightly with you if such information reaches their table. Such engagements are better handled by casino management and not staff who is not in hierarchy of the casino. Such situation is very risky and would warrant a possible dismissal if care is not taken.  In that case I really do not think a staff is permitted to do such as to advise a gambler to quit gambling or gamble responsibly.

Could we ask a simple but deep question instead of advising a gambler who's up $6k? Imagine asking, "How does being ahead feel? What was your goal when you started?" The subtle yet effective method stimulates self-reflection without overstepping limits. Guide them to their own conclusions, right?

Responsible gambling frequently depends on how we describe things. Imagine a player is completely engrossed in the game. Instead of suggesting, we should say, "Wow, great streak. Remember, fun is key!" This indirect way may be the gentle reminder they need. Its not instructive, but suggests they pause and examine their viewpoint. Isnt it about sowing idea rather than ordering?

I believe the croupier doesn't have to say anything to the gambler. After all, it' none of his business to give advices on what the gambler should do with the earned money, much less when to stop. Employees have to know their functions and limits. To say to the gambler it's time to stop and go home is the same as an obese going to the fast food or restaurant and hearing from the attendant he should walk way because he is already too fat. That doesn't sound good and professional and would bring only negative consequences for the employee.

However, if employee and customer have a relationship that goes beyond the professional, such advices can be said in off, once an appropriate opportunity appears.

If I come across someone like that whether he wins or loses, and in my position I am a worker at a certain casino, I will choose to let him go even though he has lost a certain amount of money at the gambling table. I will ignore it and choose to continue my work. I do this because there are more important things that I have to do which is an obligation for a casino worker. yes ... although my heart will be a little sad, because considering the amount of defeat he experienced was equal to my salary for one week, for example ...

Unless the person playing is my brother and I know very well the condition of his family and economy, I will immediately tell him to go home and take care of his family, because your wife and children are waiting for your return. because you cannot make gambling a place to earn a living, while your family needs to eat every day.

What if the gambler that won $6000 already continue to gamble and wins more? The chance that if a gambler continues to gamble he may later start losing, but it is still under probability because there are also chances that he can win more.

You are really that indeed doing things which is really that against with your boss or with the owner of such business on trying out to convince someone to completely stop on the time that someone do make out some money. Yes, the amount involved might not really that much but on the time that you are in the verge or on such condition then as a gambler you would really be not doing on stopping anytime soon but rather you would really be continuing to play. You dont have the rights on giving out some advises on what he should gonna do that when he's already up with 6k and now you are making some advises that he should be leaving?
Cant really be avoided sometimes on getting concern with other people specially when they are making money but on the time that you are trying to interfere or making out those words
then it would really be neither giving out some possible problems in case.

Also you are working on a casino then it would really be just that right that you should really be aiming for people to lose even more rather than on giving out some sympahty on whatever they been doing
or the money that they do have on their gambling session.

The casino will never ask you to stop gambling no matter how much you lose during gambling.
Gambling casino will never care for your loss because this is what they actually want, that is the gamblers lose more games, and the casino becomes richer.
The winning of the gamblers is inversely proportional to the losing of the gamblers.

The gamblers themselves have to step up and introduce manual ways on how they can limit their gambling activities and therefore they do not lose more than what they can actually afford to lose. They cannot depend upon the gambling sites to offer this service. No one can help the gamblers on this, except the gamblers themselves.

It will be obvious that a gambler who wins big today and would love to stay away from gambling comes the next day with small money to try his luck to win big again.

Before a worker thinks of that, he should think of a situation, what if other gamblers keep yielding to the advice he is giving to quit when on profit? Will the casino where he works be able to keep paying his workers in the long run? Won't they close because of lack of funds not getting it from their customers who lose their bets and also not being able to have many gamblers who come always to patronize them per day?

In a physical casino back in 2008 when I used to work there this was definitely not allowed for staff,the staff were only allowed to stay at their place and to convert money to playing chips,the dealer in the poker table and blackjack table was also not allowed to interact directly with the players as the object was observed with security cameras.

If I were the dealer I would tell them in a subtle way to stop at 6K as you are up 30x your initial amount and it is a good place to know when to leave,hoping for a tip  ;D from that player.In that casino where I worked tips were given in abundance I must admit as gamblers are usually in a great mood when they win,especially people winning jackpots of 5000 EUR and above were very generous in tips,they sometimes out of 5000 EUR let 300 EUR as a tip to the lady in the reception.

You are right
Provided the gambler is not going against the rules and policies of the Casino, the worker has no right whatsoever to advice any gambler to stop gambling. I believe no Casino will find it pleasing knowing that their staff has been giving unsolicited advice to their customers. Especially advice capable of reducing the credibility of the casino. Such act goes against any organisation's policy and can warrant the casino worker being sacked.

If a gambler makes profit, it is a win for him and it will motivate him to visit the casino next time. And if the gambler makes losses,  it is a win for the Casino as that is one avenue the casino makes profit. Casinos won't advice their customers to gamble responsibly, in fact they make more money from irresponsible gamblers.

And this is where business do keeps running because if you are really that actively giving out some advises around into those people who are winning to completely stop, then you are just basically going against with the business main idea and just like the rest been saying that if someone do notice out on what you are doing then they would really be telling the admin on what you've been doing and you would definitely be kicked out if you have been doing this for a while but if its your first time then you might be given out some warning but if not and the business had at least some decline in terms of revenue just because you've been actively telling someone to go home when they are winning then it would really be reflecting out that you are helping them and not the Casino on where you are working.

You wont really be a huge loss if they would really be that firing you immediately basing up on the things that you've been doing which it is really that against with their targets.
I do agree that having those concerns are good but there are really moments or things in life that we should really be that making ourselves get silent rather
than on taking some heroic steps even if you do know that you are risking yourself into doing such things.

There is nothing to do but let them continue gambling until all their winnings and initial budget are gone.
Even if you are a staff member at a land-based casino, you are not responsible for stopping gamblers from gambling irresponsibly. Personally you can warn him and stop him from gambling, but professionally you won't be able to because you are part of the casino.

Being a responsible gambler is the responsibility of each gambler, so this is not one of the essential duties in any casino including online casinos. You will certainly get warnings about gambling responsibly at online casinos, but casino will not stop you from betting even after losing and losing.

I'm not sure I understand, neither of those things would get you kicked out of most casinos really, but they would probably get the gambler to tell you to leave them alone and stop telling them what to do. Anyone who enters a casino or gambling institution has made a decision to be there and is not necessarily looking to make friends, or seek advice from strangers on how they spend their money. The best you might be able to do is console them, or buy them a coke after they've spent their money, but you should never seek to encourage them further. You'll find people in two states of mind when you visit such places, those who know that the place will take everything from them if they stay too long and those who might make it out up on cash if they leave quick enough after a lucky streak.

Casinos are not out to help you out, and in fact it’s just the opposite. They are getting worse and worse when it comes to screwing gamblers over. Doing shady stuff like planting “coolers” to mess up peoples gambling hot streaks. Casinos are about one thing, taking every single penny they can from you. Don’t be fooled,

If you work as a staff member in a physical casino as a dealer or in a sports bookie, I know that there are subtle ways you can use to encourage responsible gambling that will not go against the terms and conditions for staff.

For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?

What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?

A friend will say the former comment. A staff member will be permitted to say the latter...and if they did, that would be admirable, as that is very much a human gesture rather than one that is in favour only of the business.

Aside from staff members, not everyone will have a limit as to what they can say, however they should also be careful with what and how they say it as the intention could lead to the opposite result to a gambler.

For example, a staff member saying the former comment, might come across to a gambler "Why would they be telling me this? Maybe they're trying to stop me from winning!"

Similarly a friend should be careful to make sure delivery of the comment is coming from care and in best interests, if they want to get through to them. A greedy person is hard to convince, even if what you are trying to convince them is good for them. Delivery is important.

Doing shady stuff like planting “coolers” to mess up peoples gambling hot streaks. Casinos are about one thing, taking every single penny they can from you. Don’t be fooled,

Staff members are human. They just get paid by the casino. I completely agree with the comment about casinos generally though.

what a dilemma for me lol, on the one hand without losing players the casino business where i work will go bankrupt, so i will be on the side who will not say anything to influence the players, i will only focus on my work and will not interfere all types of losses or wins experienced by players at the casino where i work.  offline casinos and online casinos will continue to exist if enough players lose, this is very real and will continue to be like this, therefore, selection like this must continue to occur.

I don't know what I can say in such a position. When I know my salary is being paid from the money the gamblers spend, in that ship I won't say anything, but if I'm opportune to know the gambler in person, I can later advise him when we are no longer in that betting shop.
 
As much as I will not want him to lose much, I also won't also want to lose my job in the process of trying to stop someone from losing what was already won, so the best I can do is either keep quiet or walk away and allow someone else to attend to the person. If I can no longer hold myself from saying out, please don't gamble again and save those cash.

I do not think that the workers should be giving any kind of advice without being asked. However, if they see someone who is struggling, they should ask them if they are all right. And if they are asked their opinion, then they can tell them the truth. Workers are free to say what they want, as long as it does not damage the reputation of the casino. But really, that is extra and not what they are being paid for. What they are hired to do is to provide a good customer service so that the customer (in this case, the gambler) enjoys his stay at the casino and even enjoys it so much that he will return again in the future.

Most often than not, staff wouldn’t have any say against how gamblers manage their money cause you can’t really go so far as to even subtly influence how your gambler uses his/her money. But I guess you can give them a couple cheers here and there when they win, give them a thumbs up when they land on a jackpot or something along those lines.

In any case, it would really be easier to say stuff like these if only you weren’t working for the very casino that wishes for their patron’s misfortune. I guess just come around rival casinos here and there and tell people about gambling addiction and all that stuff? But that would be too harsh, and certainly grounds for termination lol.

I use  bookies very much and they will toy with players head when it comes with this, if for instance you bet $200 and you have all the selected options win and probably remain one left, they will give you a cashout options meaning that you are allow to walk away with some winning amounts like who want to win a million (any currency) but t there is a plot twist, instead of them to allow you to cashout 75-80% of the winning, they will only offer you 50% max cashout even with the only game left, so I don't think it's really wise to give advice on this kind of things because they are manipulative to play with players head. If it's outside my job, I will give them my opinions if I like but when in the job, I will just face my work and let them enjoy the fun of gambling.

usually, staffs won't say anything to their gamblers even if they are winning or losing. but maybe, the approach will be different if you are playing on a local casino where everyone knows everyone and the interaction may be different.
but if you are inside las vegas casino or macau casino, dealers and other staffs are more careful in interacting with their players. they need to be focus on their table at all times, and should not turn their head for no reason at all. they have tray of chips to take care about. and it would cost their job if they are not paying attention on their table.

The dealer should not interfere because if could lead to them to lose their job especially it is not their responsibility to discourage gamblers from playing more because the house will surely be against of it. If you’re a gambler, you should also know that talking with the dealer is not that good and ideal, since many are too busy and serious with their job especially that’s how they trained. It is your own responsibility to know when to stop as a gambler, and be more responsible.

If I worked as a dealer, I would put on a cold, unfriendly face and not care about what happened, even though I wanted to tell him to stop gambling for a while after his big win. He is not certain to lose all his money if he continues gambling. I have never been in a situation like that, but clearly, staff members are required to work professionally, so they must be able to carry out their duties well. So I don't know whether I can warn the gambler who won a lot or keep quiet while continuing my work.

If I am a staff member in physical gambling, I will definitely inform some of my customers that come to gamble to walk away after winning a reasonable amount of money, but it won’t be done on all your customers, just the ones that I am kind of close to, and it’s left for the customer to listen to my advise because some people won’t listen to my advise. Let’s assume a gambler visits a physical casino to gamble on football. After placing a bet, they have the opportunity to cash out a reasonable amount of money. If some matches have been played and they are left with just a few matches, and you advise them to cash out, if they do so, and at the end all their predictions were right, then you will be blamed for giving them advise to cash out, so sometimes it’s better you keep quiet and look.

I probably won't. People's way of viewing things is subjective and some might be offended if we would be advising them no matter how subtle we are of telling them. Remember you are a staff in the given scenario, therefore you would be considering such factors as well.

Indeed, our personal opinion should be set aside and that is called professionalism with our jobs.Sympathizing I guess with those who lost huge amount of money, probably, is the only reason where I would be stepping up to orher's problems. And this depends if I think that particular person would take my words.

I wouldn't say anything at all!
It must be fascinating to be able to work in a casino, even more so as a dealer... meeting lots of different people, often some famous ones, being able to witness various memorable events that happen in games... why would I want to take the risk of throwing that away? ?

Every player needs to know their limits and be responsible for their actions, it is not up to a casino employee to warn them of this.

Furthermore, we don't know the profile of the person playing, whether they really started betting low because they would know what they were doing or if that's all they had that night. Have you ever thought about whether the player rebels and "reports" the employee!?

Being a staff we should follow the rules and doesn’t interfere in the game aspects.It will not the professional behaviour at all,So it was essential to keep the words in at this type of situation as being a gambling staff in the physical casino.Even though he had wagered 200$,this was his own luck played the major role in the big win of 6k dollars.This big win in the gambling will help the gambler to get motivated to the future gambling also his friends get motivated and get into the gambling.

If you are caught on camera telling clients to walk away and take their winnings, you may loose your job as it may be seen as you chasing away the customers from the business, remembering that your win is the casino or gambling house's loss, and your loss is their win.

If you however say this

It is very much better because it is more appropriate and shows customer concern. It will not easily be misinterpreted to mean that you are chasing the customers away.

Well, sometimes each person has their own way of dealing with how to make profits and how to make the best of all the plays in a casino, for example if I am the one with 200usd and I have $6k, that for me is a big deal. option to retire and be very happy, I am not one to risk more from there because I know that things can become very ugly at the time that things can start with a bad streak, that is why I personally do retire with that amount, and for me it is a large amount, I don't know if others start to observe things, but I think that when a person has been drunk and someone approaches them and says that, I think that I do it, because if I don't , the casino is a double-edged aram, what it does is start losing and losing, the person can't believe it because they were on a very good streak, and the money runs out, and the employees should know that, for that reason we We must do our best to always be up to date with the things that are correct, and retirement if they are the options that should be taken.

I could say that when it comes to doing things well in a casino, we must use intelligence, it is something like what they always say at stake.com, to play intelligently so that things turn out well and obviously responsibly, I prefer be one of those people who leave a casino with a lot of money and if I'm lucky and win a lot, then I make the withdrawal once and for all, and not be part of the same old statistics that corresponds to the players who don't do well and lose all when they have had very large profits, that is what we have to look at, I could think that when things are done that way one can intuit that they are always taking the best path to influence others in which These are the best advice in a casino, and I believe that this is the best advice, of course due to my experience in casinos.

No Mr SmartGold01, I think what the op means is a betting how out of compassion is giving advice to a gambler for he/she to leave the casino hall with their win so as not to experience any more loss. I does not necessarily mean that the staff would yell at the customer to leave the casino hall, or would forcefully tell the gambler to leave the hall. beside here in my area we see all these kind of thing on a regular base, and most time the gambler out of his win might even gift the staff some of his win because it's very rear to hear such advice against the will of the company's staff. And since it's just an advice from the casino staff the gambler might choose to obey or not after all it's a free decision and it's his money.

As a worker, you should treat your work as a responsibility and act professionally, not tell customers to stop. This is the same as eliminating the source of income for the business where you work. There is no need to give advice like that to gamblers. In fact, you are trying to give good advice, but this advice actually kills the income of the business where you work, because a business definitely wants to make a lot of profit so that it can pay its employees. If you advise people who gamble to gamble responsibly, of course the business where you work will fall apart because maybe the gamblers gamble responsibly and don't experience gambling addiction. The casino owner will be happy if he sees people gambling with all their money and go home empty handed, meaning the casino owner makes a big profit and there is no way the casino owner will be happy if he sees the gamblers leave with a win which means the casino owner experiences a loss so in conclusion if I become workers at my casino will continue to work professionally and of course I will even tempt gambler to continue their activities :P

I won't be saying anything like that. First, that's not my job. Second, I might end up being reprimanded for not minding my own business. There are many gamblers in casinos who are not actually friendly, who could easily get irritated by side comments. I would rather just keep quiet and do my job well. But if after winning big, somebody smiles at me or even toss a chip or two, I might smile back, express my gratitude, and appreciate how big of a price he just got. But that's it. If they interpreted it as something like they should call it a day already, that's better.

And jeopardize his job? No, I don't think so and he ain't responsible for anything that happens. A gambler is a legal age adult which means he has his own choice if he wants to continue or not. That's on them. Giving them tips to walk away is like ruining the business where you are employed which makes you a traitor. ;D I would not do that if I were in that position. Sure, I can congratulate them for their winnings but I won't go as far as giving them an idea to run with the money.
A dealer's job is to just make the deal, he should have nothing to do with responsible gambling but if one gambler is out of control then maybe that's when he can call management to deal with them. I know what you are trying to point out, attempting to be the good guy in a bad business but again, you are currently employed with them and there are rules that you must adhere to.

Casinos have their own set of rules and I think majority of the casino wouldn't like to have a staff that is acting like this. If you are the owner of the casino, would you like to have a staff that is attempting to make the a winning gambler run away? Even if the staff don't go against the rules, I'm pretty sure that if the owner noticed his/her action, the staff would face consequences or worst losing the job.

I'm sure that staffs knows what's the nature of their work is. They don't work their to be a savior of winning/losing gamblers, they are all their to get what they want which is money.

I also think casino staffs who receives tips like dealers from winning players wouldn't want winning players to leave the casino, the more they win is the more tips dealer can make from the player.

I don't want to know which casino company you are talking about, they are all the same, and if you give someone a gambling advice you are already breaking the law of been a staff in the casino, telling anyone in the casino to stop gambling and take their win to avoid losing all is against the casino and if you are spotted you will lose your job..

I know someone that works in a casino, he once told me about how he used to help people, telling them to quit and they never for once listened to him, and most times they always end up leaving the casino with nothing, the described the problem with gamblers as a very bad addiction and greed.

Later he was served a notice to quit the company for no reason, I told him he must have been spotted by someone, this is why I said that advancing someone on the line of work will cost you, if you know anyone that's into gambling and you want to advice them let it not be inside the casino at the moment, maybe later after the day is over, not at work.

If you work as a staff member in a physical casino as a dealer or in a sports bookie, I know that there are subtle ways you can use to encourage responsible gambling that will not go against the terms and conditions for staff.

For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?

What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?

If you are an employee, just keep your mouth shut because its not right to talk with your customer convincing to quit as well as it is bad for the place where you are working.

I can only say about responsible gambling to someone is being one and show how it should be, actions speaks a lot louder than words.

Actually, I'm confused about how to answer it. On the one hand, I don't want to see him lose. On the other hand, I am a dealer in a brick-and-mortar casino. Maybe I'll just remind him gently so as not to offend him. Usually, people who have won a lot don't want to be reminded to stop. They feel they are still able to look after themselves well.

They might laugh when they see someone advising them to stop gambling. Moreover, they have won a lot of money. But then again, that won't stop them easily, as they still want to get another big win. That's where we have to leave the decision up to them. They will be responsible for their gambling activities.

We also can't keep reminding him to stop gambling, especially since we are the casino dealer. Our job is only to serve those who want to gamble and not to remind them to stop gambling. They should have the desire to stop gambling.

The only time a casino gambling staff has to approach and encourage) advice a gambler with some concerns of the Gambling is abiding to the policies of underaged person's who are not only limited to the gambling board but also as restricted from gambling so it is unprofessional for the staff to talk in a y form of advice towards a gambler who is winning or who is loosing to walk away.

So personally, I would say the staff should look away let the gambler make his decisions. Considering the gambler to have lost other times and the staff didn't ask him to stop betting further more and just walk away, so why should it be the periods of his lucky times to win you would ask me to walk away? This is what goes through the gamblers mind. Probably you don't you don't  wish him winning. That's his thoughts.
There are actually certain person's you offers profitable advices but seems it is one coming from a jealous or envious one just like the staff with the gambler.

Best approach or advice is the one coming from its own self. It would be better his fellow gambler take the lead to ask him to walk away than that of the staff.

Contrarily and moreover, a physical gambling casino is either tended to be one of other casinos agency or a personal owned whom is expected to make profits on behalf of the institutions or the Gambling company.

I probably won't. People's way of viewing things is subjective and some might be offended if we would be advising them no matter how subtle we are of telling them. Remember you are a staff in the given scenario, therefore you would be considering such factors as well.
For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?
That act can dump you into trouble and cost your job, so as a worker be it in metaphor, overtly or directly it is not in your place or position to  entreat a customer to continue or stop from playing. You are violating work ethics and can land you to trouble and you continue do that same customers you think you are cautioning would be the ones to report to management of your actions and you be fired for good.
As an employer any employee that does that is bad for business and is not worthy of employment in that sector.
Indeed, our personal opinion should be set aside and that is called professionalism with our jobs.Sympathizing I guess with those who lost huge amount of money, probably, is the only reason where I would be stepping up to orher's problems. And this depends if I think that particular person would take my words.
If you talk about professionalism in work place then as a worker in a gambling hub you don't even have to step into any gambler's losing or win  situation whether he will accept your advise or not shouldn't be a concern of yours. Interpersonal, that's how you're bond to behave by the work ethics of the sector you are working in. Except you are related to the gambler in person then you can chip in a metaphor of advise but outside of that you don't just go giving your customers words to leave because you felt empathy for their losses.

Is that within the terms? Does casino allow you to warn player if you genuinely think that he or she has a gambling addiction? I have not seen any casino worrying about the gambling addiction of their customers but some online casinos at least formally include links of gambling addiction support websites. So, if you work in a casino and encounter a gambler that he has gambling addiction, then you'll be fired immediately. First of all, casino owner cares only about the profit and secondly, you aren't paid for psychology classes, you are paid to do one, specific job, to deal cards or whatever it is.
The only moment when casino representative tell you to take your winnings and go is the moment when you earn tons from slot games and somehow aren't losing. In other cases, they try to get as much from you as possible.

As a worker, you should treat your work as a responsibility and act professionally, not tell customers to stop. This is the same as eliminating the source of income for the business where you work. There is no need to give advice like that to gamblers. In fact, you are trying to give good advice, but this advice actually kills the income of the business where you work, because a business definitely wants to make a lot of profit so that it can pay its employees. If you advise people who gamble to gamble responsibly, of course the business where you work will fall apart because maybe the gamblers gamble responsibly and don't experience gambling addiction. The casino owner will be happy if he sees people gambling with all their money and go home empty handed, meaning the casino owner makes a big profit and there is no way the casino owner will be happy if he sees the gamblers leave with a win which means the casino owner experiences a loss so in conclusion if I become workers at my casino will continue to work professionally and of course I will even tempt gambler to continue their activities :P
Can a business survive by encouraging hazardous behavior? Casinos make most of their money from gamblers, but there's a fine line between pleasure and addiction. Consider reputation: a casino that promotes responsible gambling may attract more customers. Balance short-term gains with long-term reputation and consumer loyalty. Your view on professional conduct is important, but isn't professionalism also about ethics? Is it not my job to protect clients if I see behaviors that potentially hurt them? By encouraging gamblers to bet properly, we're not destroying their income, but rather building a healthier, more sustainable connection. Building an ethical brand instead of maximising short-term revenues is a shift in viewpoint. Isn't that smarter business?

Casinos have their own set of rules and I think majority of the casino wouldn't like to have a staff that is acting like this. If you are the owner of the casino, would you like to have a staff that is attempting to make the a winning gambler run away? Even if the staff don't go against the rules, I'm pretty sure that if the owner noticed his/her action, the staff would face consequences or worst losing the job.

I'm sure that staffs knows what's the nature of their work is. They don't work their to be a savior of winning/losing gamblers, they are all their to get what they want which is money.

I also think casino staffs who receives tips like dealers from winning players wouldn't want winning players to leave the casino, the more they win is the more tips dealer can make from the player.
a casino where staff actively drive winning gamblers away. Madness, right? What if this kind of behavior, which seems crazy, is actually part of a plan? Casinos do best when people win and lose at the same time. Too many wins could scare off the majority of losers, and lets face it, most gamblers lose.

Now, as if the owner, I'd certainly raise an eyebrow at such tactics. But if these acts subtly encourage people who are more likely to lose to stay longer, might this not be a smart, if unusual, move? Staff who know how the casino works might be playing a complicated psychological game where they look crazy but are actually following a deeper plan.

As you might expect, this goes against how casinos usually work. But in a world where thinking outside the box is often praised, could this really be anything but another way of coming up with new ideas?

The majority of people lose in casinos; they're constructed in such a way that it makes you lose track of time and, eventually, your money. Moreover, they're getting suspicious when someone is winning large amounts of money and, indeed, may attempt to drive them away.

However, as a simple employee, it's generally advised to not interfere and mind your own business. You're not the one making choices here, but I understand the OP's point. I'd also hate seeing someone lose, especially if it's a regular attendant I personally know, but in general, it's a risk gamblers are willing to take and not our decision to make. I'd rather not get reprimanded by neither the gambler nor my employer for someone else's choice. On top of that, no casino would ever allow its employees to step in and interfere, as it's against the concept of casinos, which is to make money on other people's losses. Which business owner would jeopardize himself to save someone else's issues caused by their addictions?

You don't do that as that is against business policy. You work based on your job description and you don't discourage a gambler to stop when he's up, or the same when he's down. The casino's main goal is to increase their profit, so you should be supporting them as they are the ones who are paying you, not the gamblers.

What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?

Just be silent and respect the gamblers as you re not in the position to tell them to stop, they came in the casino so expect that they are already responsible enough.

And, if you are familiar with the words " conflict of interest", don't go against that.

I will admire the fact that he or she was able to wager such an amount over such short period of time but then I will not interfare in their choice, if he or she chooses to continue I will let them do their biddings but otherwise I will want to advise them about responsible gambling and to better withdraw that which they have won already.

Some times the reason some persons would wan to continue even after been so lucky with such wager is most likely because of greed and that has been the biggest challenge of most gamblers and it's really sad that at such a point if you try advising them, some may not take the advice and some may aswell take it but it's better they are allowed to do their biddings and if it turns out against them, they learn their lessons the hard way but in their favour they turn out lucky.

I will not say anything to the player because as casino staff we must continue to behave appropriately towards customers whether they can win with small capital or vice versa. After all, casino profits will depend on customer satisfaction unless the player has been reported by his family as a gambling addict so casinos need to take action so as not to make their customers' lives more difficult by allowing them to continue gambling.
But, if we have never worked as casino staff, we certainly wouldn't be able to say with certainty what we should do to our customers because casino staff have a job description of what they should do and what they shouldn't do, so only casino staff know exactly what they will do.

Always invest 10% of your salary into bitcoin, and if you want to gamble, use 10% of THAT to gamble, which would be tiny amount of your salary. I know that it may not sound like a lot of money to many of us, then you can just save it a bit and then do it once every few months if it's too little.

If you have 1000 dollar per month salary, that means 010 should go to bitcoin for saving, and 10 dollars should go to gambling, and we all know 10 dollars per month is not enough, so just save for 5 months and then you will have 50 dollars and you can start betting on sports at least. This is true for rich people as well, if you are super wealthy and make 1 million dollars profit per month income, then 100k should go to bitcoin, and 10k could go to gambling per month.

I think a dealer first of all has a responsibility to his family - well, he has to work and bring in a salary. If he works against his employer by advising casino visitors to leave with their winnings, he will most likely lose his job very quickly. Now this moral problem looks different, doesn't it? And by the way, in general, there are many people who do not like unsolicited advice, regardless of the circumstances, so it is dangerous to advise something to strangers (even if you had such an opportunity).

You're not being loyal to your company so want your company to lose profit, you have no business saying this to clients, you are betraying the trust of your company, players do not want to tell them to stop and take their profit, it can come from others but never from a gambling staff, it's unusual for staff to do this, players will perceive you as someone who hated the company you're working if you tell them thee words and he might report you for giving unsolicited that puts the company in disadvantage.

This is absurd, IMO.  Too much intervention to a player's gameplay will render the client disappointed.  Just let them enjoy their game time and let them make their own decision.  There is a right time for reminders, and popping up a notification on how long they have been playing is enough, IMO.

Saying have a responsible gambling session is enough.  Too much prying is unwelcome, IMO.

The staff is in no position to tell the customer what to do. The customer didn't ask so it's not his place to say anything. The staff is there to do a job and it's that job alone that they should do.

I highly agree, as I stated to much prying is not welcome to any gambler.  In fact, any kind of unwelcome suggestion will make customer get disappointed worst they may leave the casino because they think that staff are spying on their gambling activity, and that I believe is invasion of privacy.

a casino employee is not paid to tell customers what to do with their money, the casino makes money from player losses, and casino employees are paid wages thanks to player losses, so if casino employees casinos kept telling people who earn a lot to stop playing, then they would see the casino going bankrupt and those same employees would lose their jobs. In the game there is no bad person or good person, there is only the game and its rules, the lucky one wins and the unlucky one loses, the person who keeps playing with money that the person cannot afford to lose becomes bankrupt.

The casino has no duty to play the role of psychologist and tell people to be responsible and gamble in moderation, but as the governments of some countries have forced casinos to do this, so in certain casinos, they post warnings for people play in moderation, but that's all. The casino employee cannot interfere in the game to advise a player to stop playing because he wants to continue playing. Of course, if a physical casino has already closed the casino, the casino employee must tell the players to stop playing and leave the casino, this in physical casinos

I understand you're trying to look out for the client's well-being, but directly telling gamblers to stop playing could backfire.  As a representative of the company, we have to tread carefully when interacting with customers and  perhaps there's a more diplomatic approach, where we could subtly emphasize the value of playing responsibly without outright telling them to stop.

I was working as a live casino dealer in one of the most famous company and I have enough experience to discuss this subject. We had a button where we would click if we noticed that gambler was addicted to gambling. We could only notice that if gambler was chatting with us and was complaining how much he lost or how he can't control his loses. If someone had problems like that we were able to report them and then other staff would chat with them and restrain them from gambling for a while but you don't have right to suggest someone to stop gambling because he won 6K. You'll do that and you'll be fired. You can only suggest someone if they would like to double down or split, other suggestions are prohibited.

Yes, by default it is assumed that a gambler is an adequate adult, capable of making decisions independently. Any advice can be perceived as aggression in the sense that the one who advises doubts the gambler’s ability to behave adequately.
I don't think anyone would want to hear a waiter in a restaurant say, "You should stop eating, you've already eaten enough" or in a pub, "Stop drinking, you've already had too much."  ;D

If you are a staff member at the casino, you should only take care of your work. Maybe later, even if we say that you see the player winning when he plays gambling and you are the current banker in the games he plays, I think it is not your job to tell the players to stop because they have won a lot of money.

Because that might end up being the reason you lose your job just because you told the gambler to stop playing, just remember that the gamblers are the ones who pay the casino staff, whether it's an online or physical casino.

Been a responsible gambler is not about how many times you can win some money, its about continues gambling that have no negative impact on your life, business and your daily activities, and the only way to make this be this way is by avoiding using gambling as your main focus in life, engage in gambling if you have money to lose.

Gambling is a game where you decide on what a possible outcome might be, it's like trying to predict the future which makes you not in control of anything, so there for you need to risk only what you can afford to lose.

The second expression you said seems lowkey, so I'll go on this than on the other which is more straight to the point and the gambler may not like hearing that. They can report us to the manager/owner and we can lose our job. I'm sure we don't want that to happen. It's also best to not interfere with their decision at all costs, only to be safe completely.

The legal age to play gambling is 18 years old and above. People on that age group are already mature enough to know what they are doing. So, what happens to them is only all their responsibility, (not us or the casino owner). I know some staffs does that in hopes of getting some tips but there is no assurance and if ever we are given, that was mostly a small amount. It's not worth the risk.

Many gamblers know their boundaries, but do they? Gambling is about the illusion of control, not merely boundaries. Gamblers hope to control and outwit the game. Is this a misconception?

If gambling is about anticipating the future, arent we all merely playing chance in life? Gambling, unlike life, is a choice to play probabilities. Your emphasis on responsible gambling is vital. How many gamblers can separate emotion from money?

Your emphasis on gambling without harming one's life is utopian. Really, how feasible is this? Gambling is addictive by nature. Its about being responsible and recognizing the difference between a harmless hobby and a trap. Are we all capable?

If you work as a staff member in a physical casino as a dealer or in a sports bookie, I know that there are subtle ways you can use to encourage responsible gambling that will not go against the terms and conditions for staff.

For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?

If you are a staff member at the casino, you should only take care of your work. Maybe later, even if we say that you see the player winning when he plays gambling and you are the current banker in the games he plays, I think it is not your job to tell the players to stop because they have won a lot of money.

Because that might end up being the reason you lose your job just because you told the gambler to stop playing, just remember that the gamblers are the ones who pay the casino staff, whether it's an online or physical casino.
Yes, that's true because we work in casinos as croupiers and are tasked with carrying out our jobs. We also cannot advise them to stop because those who win feel they are at the top and will not stop unless they want to.

Rather than having problems at work later, we should stay focused on our work. And we can lose our jobs because we can no longer focus on work. Perhaps when we're done with work, we can approach the gambler and suggest he take a break while we invite him to drink. But it depends on the situation and conditions at the casino. Actually, this is a dilemma, and the decision will depend on each person.

Most casinos will make you sign a waiver that prevents you from discouraging gamblers. It's not up to the staff to do so. You're to encourage safe and friendly conditions, so clients must feel cozy at the casino, you're there to answer all their questions and help them to move around the place. When you see someone feeling bad, looking like they should leave, people who are drunk, having a breakdown, you're there to get them help, call them a cab, but you cannot stop them from playing. In fact if you did that they could later sue the casino saying that staff did not want him, a lucky gambler, to keep playing and asked them to leave. They could also feel suspicious of you, like you know they're about to win and want them to stop. It's better to do nothing.

Why would you want to do that as a worker of a casino? The more money that the players are betting ...will increase the profit of the casino and the workers might get more bonuses.  :P

I think every reaction of a casino worker are being monitored, so the casino CCTV operators will pick up on any suggestive comments from those workers and it will be reported.

If I had to do this... I would have said, "Enjoy your winnings" .... or "You are very lucky today"  :D

I won't say anything so I don't lose my job, the house always want to make profits and from people losing that's how they make profits and not from them winning. They'll want me to encourage that user to continue gambling until he lose some of those money that he has won or lose everything. When working in casino, if they don't make profits, the workers can't get paid well so I depend on the gamblers losing for me to be paid therefore I can't discourage irresponsible gambling.

But if I'm not working in a casino, I can discourage irresponsible gambling when I see them. Gamblers shouldn't wait on other individuals to discourage them from gambling irresponsibly, they owe it to their money to protect it or they'll lose it. Gambling should be done as a form of entertainment and at some point we have to stop gambling mostly when we're in profits or are down by so many losses as chasing loses is the fastest way to go more broke

I don't think anyone would want to hear a waiter in a restaurant say, "You should stop eating, you've already eaten enough" or in a pub, "Stop drinking, you've already had too much."  ;D

Yeah! Can you imagine this scenario unfolding at a restaurant? A waiter scrutinizes a female patron, discreetly scanning a lady's waistline.  He then proceeds to make an unsolicited remark about her figure and food choices.  Excuse me ma'am, perhaps you should refrain from ordering dessert, he comments snidely implying she should be more conscientious of her weight.

An uncomfortable situation, to say the least!  ;D

As for your second example, I've actually heard that line a bunch of times at the bar, especially from my better-looking partner. ;)

The second phrase can be heard quite often from a bartender if you drink too much and either act “louder than average” or fall asleep at the bar. There is nothing aggressive or offensive here.
But if you compare it with the first message of the topic, this is a wrong analogy. A true analogy would be if the bartender immediately told everyone who entered the bar about the dangers of alcohol and advised them not to drink at all, haha.

None, nothing. That's what I'll say because it is none of my business and scope to give them some warning if I'm just a staff. I'll just do whatever is tasked to me like assisting them with their bets or whatsoever but to give them a reminder, I'll only give them some reminder if they're doing things against the casino's policy and premises.

That's none of our business anymore but it's nice to have that someone to give some reminder to these folks. But let alone decide whether to push and continue or just walk away with whatever amount they have already. Because if not, you might even be blamed if they get bad luck. You don't know what's on the mind of these people when they gamble especially if they've been winning a lot already.

A few signs or talks and being a staff, you might get scolded for interfering with their affairs by just simply talking to them. You only talk when they talk to you, you only answer when they ask you a thing or two.

Even if a person isn't being supervised or watched through cameras, it's unethical and unloyalty with the job and the company that you are working for if you are favouring the customers instead of favouring the house while you are getting paid by the house for the job you have and it's your responsibility to make sure that the house earns as much money as possible and you shouldn't hint gamblers to stop gambling and leave with profit when they are not doing that themselves.

A person needs to understand that it's a choice for a gambler to either gamble or leave at any point when they are in a casino, and if they choose to stay and gamble, you shouldn't ask them to do otherwise. If you are working in a shopping mall, you wouldn't ask a customer to not buy more products and leave while they have money left, the same thing applies to gambling as well.
