Do any people gamble under the age of 18?

[Too.Cool]

I want to know if anyone here gambles or have gambled under the age of 18, I feel like there are many kids who do this and I am interested to see how many people actually gamble under 18, if you have any friends that gamble or have gambled under 18 include them.


EDIT: I mean mostly kids online, its hard to be a kid and gamble physically. I feel like the gambling rate for kids is increasing a lot and is gonna be a problem in the future, especially with the CS:GO situation.

EDIT2: Another question to ask, is what is your opinion on the topic of kids gambling, do you think it is a growing problem or a problem alone for that matter?

I start sport betting when i still on Junior High school and now i know kids that already start gambling younger than me when i start betting...

I think there were alot factor that had growing problem, not only for any people who already start gambling when still young..

Wether it is online or locally, there are lots of people who are playing gamble games and betting real money who are under the age of 18.  In my place I see kids at the age of 8 to 16 playing cara y cruz (flip coins) and some play dice game .  They even play lucky 9 (card game) and even poker.  Their parents just don't mind because they themselves are busy playing gambling games  like poker and other card game too LOL.

Kids are getting addicted to gambling within young ages, especially because of them finding out about new technologies before we do. They are getting used to video games at very young ages, and this gets them addicted to gambling from young ages. Have you, guys ever played CS:GO? I think over 60% of the players are under 15, and most of them got skins for hundreds of bucks from trading and/or gambling. And then, when they are 18 years old.. oh well, I guess in 4-5 years all casinos will be full 24/7

in some countries bitcoin is totally banned, because gambling is illegal there some religion also have consider gambling as sin, but still in some religions and in some countries there is no destruction on gambling, but still gambling is banned on the children less than 18 years of age, they are not allowed in casino, so i can say that there will be few children below 18 who will be practicing gambling but most of the children will have opportunities to play gambling.

[daringdiscovered]

Of course yes, i think that teenagers below 18 years old are more prone from getting addicted to gambling. They will think it is the only way to earn their money. Teens nowadays are very demanding and have strong need in money, parents can't give what always their child wants, if something is popular they want to have that also. When they find that they can earn from gambling they will get addicted to it.

Well I don't really think there's any specific age that someone starts to gamble. I think most of us, if not all, have gambled one way or another when they were under 18. Well maybe not gambling in terms of monetary gambling but placing a bet or wagering on something for a prize would be considered gambling already.

Yeah you can considered it as gamble..
Here in my country gamble under 18 is not prohibited i think even old man are not prohibited because of our new rules here in my country new president and new rules.. they are closing gambling here or its restricted in my country because of new rules and new president.

Many people gamble under age of 18 in real life. Now online gambling with Bitcoin made it much easier for everyone without disclosing or sharing any information to keep playing on these sites. There are lot of teenagers who gamble. In reality I have experienced many youngsters placing bets on different types of games.

yeah, nearly all people plaay gambling underaged and it is a really big problem as sometimes youths lose a lot of money from their parents

[macedoniantable]

They could if they wanted to since the internet casinos online can only ask for your date of birth and they can say they are over 18 years of age, so that rule does not apply there.
But if they win any sums of bitcoin/money and want to withdraw it then they will have to show proof of age to get that withdrawal balance completed.

[SyGambler]

I was introduced to gambling when I was under 18 , but not in btc sites cause at that time I didn't know about btc
but since the beginning roulette and other casino games didn't attract me , only poker did
so I was registering in every poker site that have a free bonus and tried to ran the bonuses up
I miss the old days 

[Hellacopter]

Yes i think there is people under the age of 18 do gambling, as gambling sites 'especially the ones which support Bitcoin) is open for everyone worldwide, so it's possible that kids visit it and play there

in singapore you wouldn't allowed to enter to the casino and play there if you are below 21 year old. in digital age everything could be done include gambling under restriction. online gambling especially bitcoin gambling are a good way for those who couldn't go to real casino to gamble and just sit down in front of monitor.

Now they are getting even more appealing to the younger generation by having faucet games in place to claim to "drip" satoshis just for playing their mini games. Just like in video games. So it's geared more towards the younger crowd and less away from their main business of hard style casino games focused more toward the veteran gamblers.

[nejibens]

I know many kids under the age of 18 doing gambling often, especially with their earnings from faucets. It's not safe for them because they risk to become addicted gamblers in short time

EDIT: I mean mostly kids online, its hard to be a kid and gamble physically. I feel like the gambling rate for kids is increasing a lot and is gonna be a problem in the future, especially with the CS:GO situation.[/center]

That is why Valve recently changed their stance on skin gambling services like CS GO lounge. They changed their terms of service to eliminate any 3rd party gambling sites.
It was full fledged gambling as some CS Go skins are worth thousands of dollars.

Never knew about this gambling service. I thought the skins were just things that are in-game purchases . This is very interesting indeed.

A skin can cost that much? 
I thought only weapons were the most expensive things offered in the game for purchase.
I got to look into this further as you have peaked my interest in this whole skins game now.

Yeah most people on hf gamble everyday and loose their money even they are below 18. Most gambling sites don't verify age of its users.

They only would if they have to give them their winnings. Then there is a law in place to the gambling association against doing this for minors.
Their own TOS states (or should state) this well known fact about gambling towards minors.
It is prohibited by law for them to do it. But the casinos don't mind taking their money or bitcoins anyways. They just don't like paying them out if they win.

Kids might be gambling through CS:GO and so, but there shouldn't be very much gambling happening through most other websites. A majority of kids should hypothetically only be able to get a majority of their value for gambling through CS:GO skins, and I would assume it is hard for most of them to have access to a credit card for most other websites. However kids gambling through the internet is definitely an issue, and one that has to be watched in the future to make sure it doesn't become to big of an issue.

[Ziskinberg]

I think so, there are young gamblers now who even bet bigger than a person who aged 18 above, young gamblers are very aggressive as they have the freedom to gamble using bitcoin anytime they wanted to do it.
