Gambling: Culture

[mostcrack]

I do not call it gambling has become a culture, but I call it a bad habit of someone who is not easy to give a little understanding or stop by itself. it's a lot of gambling everywhere although illegal, from the trivial of playing classic games with gambling, this is where little kids already know things like that, back again I see the environment is not good enough, every year is increasing and hereditary.

For country that legalized gambling, it does.  You see cities that allows gambling make it their attraction.  It even improves as time pass by.  In return, these casinos where gambling events happen gives the government huge amount of profit, they even give budget to charities, in our country it does at least.  So from being a habit of one person to a legalized system of entertainment, it became a culture of one city or place as time pass by.

It was part of our culture and we also have that "perya" since I was a kid in our barangay and town yearly but sometimes there's a year that it was prohibited, sometimes there's a year that they allow it. The "perya" near us has been raided by CIDG few nights ago and destroy a bit of there things but the owner fixed it again and now they continue operating. It was kind of illegal but it's really part of our culture that can't be easily vanish.

Just digging some info about this perya , is it just an ordinary carnival held in Philippine ? And some people do gamble on various form of games there? And then it become a culture to do so every year. I see Philippine as a country that prohibit gambling and quite religious. No wonder a lot of people try to stop it. Gambling there are  A culture indeed but it should obey the policy and the norms used there.

Yeah, usually "perya" is held when there is a town fiesta. Just ordinary carnival but there are a lot of gambling in there, like dice game, bingo, color games and others games that involved money.

Yes, we it is predominantly religious nation, however, they also inherited a lot of vices specially from Europeans and Americans as far as I know.

Have you ever wonder why even there are a lot of negative things gambling bought, it still doesnt leave us ? Is that so, gambling has been a part of our culture , even you have plenty or not. Rich people often socialize in the form of casino, while the poor are contented on country games with lower bets. I, as a person living on a third world country, witnessed how gambling form our culture. Town celebrations or "fiesta" are not complete without low cost gambling houses called "perya" where you can bet starting from almost $.02 and above. Every corner of the street has some kids playing coin games and even a wake makes its company awake using card games. Weird isnt it? How about in your country?

I thinks  we belong in the same country that belong also in the third world porrest country,and that all you mention a  lowcost kind of gambling actually i experience also that,like playing cockfighting,peryahan games called "bingo",and small kind of cards games we called poker,three cards etc.actually all this kind of gambling cultures we inherit it from the spanish period when the time they colonize our country.

So ultimately there was a culture in your country about gambling. This thing can never be removed thoroughly from any state or country because people are doing it all the times. Sometimes in form of big games and sometimes in little games of snooker and else. This has been a culture to the world. People never stop themselves completely from playing this harmful game.

Gambling is no doubt played in every part of the world and the history of this game appears to me as old as the human race itself. All one needs for becoming a gambler is money to be placed on some game.  Sometimes, those are played by the gambler himself and sometimes other play the game. It is just a total wastage of time and money.  Indeed, gambling is more like a culture that is shared in all parts of the world. Due to technology evolution, people can gamble even if it is banned in their country.

For me it is not weird since its already our culture,we are already used in that way generation through generation gambling will always stay alive. But what is sad is even in an early age kids starting to learn simple kind of gamble.

Then this does explained that gambling really depends on every country's rules, at least your country did a little help on charity. But in our country casino's are prohibited to stand in some place due to the church law but there are still casinos in some urban area.
I think gambling is not really a culture since they does only exist in some occasion except on casino's.

In the old days gambling still available and many people almost gambling at the night, we even have many gambling places. But all changed when the new president come and make a new rules about gambling because there are many negative effects on gambling. Gambling is banned right now in my country and most of them that want gambling are play at online casino.

Fantastic step your president have taken in such matter. This is really alarming to see casinos prevailing and opening in every new city. Many branches were opening in our cities throughout the country. Our government have taken the same step as yours. Now, gambling is banned in our country too and this made me so happy because I can’t see my people drowning in greediness.

maybe its about most of the people wanna earn big in simplest way and thats why they found gambling as source of income(though most of the time for sure they are losing)its not really advisable that you will let gambling feed your family because the risk is 70/30 more for loss..but gambling is here before our great grand fatjer live in bible we can read that even those soldier that bring Christ to dearh gambled for his Clothing this means OP is right its on the Culture

Gambling has been a part of every culture even if you are residing from a different country. Different ways and strategy but same goal. Probably it is because people always want to earn money in I think every aspect, so even if it is only a small amount of money earned through gambling, they’d still go for it.

I like your thinking, people will always try to earn money in every aspect and any way. Gambling is attractive cause you can win a lot very fast, and its legal in most of the countries. Something fall on my mind, what if we try to compare gambling with drinking culture? Both have many negative impacts on individuals and society, but both are legal in most of the countries and many people abuse gambling or drinking. But there are even more people who can control their urge for one of them, and they enjoy in both of them, but they have control and they know how much they can gamble or drink without consequences.
Culture is something you have in yourself or don`t, you learn that. Everything we do shape us and our society, and when you sum up everything it`s up to you and how much you can control yourself.

Gambling is not a healthy activity. It has destroyed lives of many teenagers who just have craze of making huge wealth with shortcuts. We should understand that immature minds are easy to divert but later on, they realize what the hell they were doing with their life. The time they should have spent with families and devoted to studies, they wasted in gambling. Government should forcefully stop this game.

Whatever they are, not good for you people. You have to keep yourself away from such games where you would be involved in any sort of loss.

Why to indulge yourself in bad thing about which you are absolutely known that if police know about this, I will be in jail. Think about your family and your future and keep this game at an arm’s distant. Believe me your life will be easier.

It's not bad to risk something and to try to profit because nothing would happen if you just keep it in a bank. It's going to be a hard one if you lose a lot but at least you did something about it. It could be a bad decision but for sure, there would be chances that you make the right one.

We can risk only if the outcome will be positive at least one time out of ten attempts. There will be no meaning of risking when you are be getting failure in all ten attempts. Most gamblers never bother about their outcome but they still keep trying among many failures and it has become their gambling culture. It is very unfortunate situation in my opinion because we should stop at some certain point when there will be no positive results out of our gambling.

Gambling may produce positive results in theoretical but when we are experiencing in real life we could never find any positive results. Our gambling culture must include an aspect which will be dealing what we should do when we are not getting positive results.

Ya. I think it is a twin of humankind. It is not only in one country but everywhere. I wonder even simple games they use in gambling. Many form, many ways. It seems that life with out gambling is boring or games with out money involved is not exciting.

Gambling could not be a culture of society, 3000 years ago there was gambling, bringing money with the main objective chance of gambling objects showing variety. Today, gambling has only changed shape.

I think it's "boring life needs gambling"? Most of the gambling is from a game, a contest, it just so happen that they have to put a bet. Gambling is already part of the culture of so many people, it is already in their culture, any contest, that would amuse everyone, people will bet on it.

But gambling before is not as vicious as it is today. people value their money and properties too much before that if they are going to bet, it should be on something that is memorable and most of the time they themselves are at stake, and not just for the sake of raking money.

Yes, the urge to have too much wealth and cash is the major motive for gamblers to get into this game. They think that this is the easiest way of making some of it without working hard but they forget that there is nothing in life that you can get without working hard and struggling. The easily earned money is the one that is usually easily lost. So better not promote this culture of gambling rather stop it.
