Been part of out tradition on some countries which it isn't really complete if we don't see those things specially on occasions like "fiestas" where those kind of small scale gambling do exist.I do see some countries which do prohibit this but I do see most of the them do really allow this thing since it just really for the purpose of entertainment for those people who do visit or stroll into that area.
Even it is prohibited, there are exceptions when it comes into being used in it, I know that some "perya" were only allowed if that municipality permitted them, same in some wakes. Maybe it just depends on how strict the implementation since as long as people can do it without being arrested, then their fun continues.
Gambling has been around a long time and can not be destroyed and some are made as a tradition, and almost all countries ban gambling because it will get a loss and even become addicted to those who play it .. but it is difficult to ban it because gambling will always be there forever and their various ways will still gamble despite having to hide because it has become a cultural tradition of our ancestors
Gamblers will always have many ways to find that idea gambling. Gambling is not just playing casino or just rolling dice, far from that everything we guess will be made a bet. Do you hear Ludo game? in my country that  is very popular. They gamblers find a new places to serve as gambling establishments.

Gambling is not a tradition anymore, but gambling is the root of tradition. No one can afford to find a way to stop in gambling, the old way that can be replaced in a new way. Regulation and religion only as a means to awaken the gambler in a moment.

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?

Well, I think you live in the Philippines since I know what terms you stated and quoted. You know dude, We both know that our country is not that wealthy and a lot of people are suffering in poverty but they still choose to gambling. Gambling can make you addictive you know that, especially in our country. Sometimes people will do bad things in order for them to have money for gambling. You can see a lot in our news. Well, even some gambling games are banned in our country there's still also is allowed and one of that is what you quoted.

Gambling is even very popular among people who can not afford. The majority of people gambling throughout history are the poor who have to work hard to live. Gambling is the most available escape because other entertainment spend money without any chance the money can get back or make more money. the more socially accustomed people are to gambling, the habit is already rushing and spreading almost entrenched. because it has become a routine activity.
I got your point too.Yes gambling has been here already even from the time of our ancestors long time ago.So there's no way stopping it,since it has been legalized also by most of the countries.But considering those poor people who are much into it,i think gambling would not really come out a good influence for them.Instead they may become addicted to it and it's not only one person who will suffer but the whole family will be hungry.I think this one should need attention from the government,minimizing gambling for those poor people who made gambling as a means for living,not just a mere entertainment.
Some countries have legalized this gambling but many have claimed it to be illegal. Like our country, here no body is allowed to gamble. Even if some person is caught going for some gambling thing, he will be punished and sentenced in jail under the law. This is our culture and we love this thing. Because it is best way to stop gambling and stopping people to become losers.

I will update my reply for this post later.

Do you always post like this? 8 out of your latest 10 posts are like this, then you when you will edit it? At the time when it is getting close to the payment date of the campaign? So it wont be look like a burst posting because you made it days before?
Remember mate, there is clear time of the editing. So if your main point of doing this is to avoid to be considered as burst posting then you are wrong.

Gambling has been around even before society learned to be civilized. A lot of culture have their own forms of gambling probably same as having their own beliefs and religion. So yeah with the evolution of civilization, gambling has always been a part of it

Gambling is not a culture I guess, because the culture is something that we could be proud of, and gambling is not included because of its bad reputation. Maybe it is just a habit that we inherited to our ancestors from a very long time but it will never be a part of our culture, and in the near future, gambling will continue to evolve as the technology grows.

Customs are a custom in society. Customs are part of the culture. people who often gamble because they are accustomed, often do, and often benefit, so almost as gamble with culture is formed because of a continuous habit.

It's true that gambling is part of our culture. I mean, since early times we have been involved in betting, games of chance and competition. It's human nature to want to turn adversity into opportunity.

I actually read a book recently called the Ascent of Man, and it describes how even ancient man, before written language was invented used to gamble food stocks with neighboring tribes based on the outcomes of seemingly trivial events. It just goes to show that it's in our nature to wager what we have, in order to gain something more.

This is still prevalent in modern society, particularly in certain cultures like Eastern Europe and Russia, two gambling hot spots. I think it has something to do with risk reward mentality, some peoples brains don't process it in the same way others do. For example, I am quite risk averse so I only gamble when I am almost certain to win, whilst others might gamble with only a small chance to win, if the payoff is high enough (e.g. Lottery players).

Gambling is part of the human condition.

Been part of out tradition on some countries which it isn't really complete if we don't see those things specially on occasions like "fiestas" where those kind of small scale gambling do exist.I do see some countries which do prohibit this but I do see most of the them do really allow this thing since it just really for the purpose of entertainment for those people who do visit or stroll into that area.
Even it is prohibited, there are exceptions when it comes into being used in it, I know that some "perya" were only allowed if that municipality permitted them, same in some wakes. Maybe it just depends on how strict the implementation since as long as people can do it without being arrested, then their fun continues.
Gambling has been around a long time and can not be destroyed and some are made as a tradition, and almost all countries ban gambling because it will get a loss and even become addicted to those who play it .. but it is difficult to ban it because gambling will always be there forever and their various ways will still gamble despite having to hide because it has become a cultural tradition of our ancestors

Ludo is also a dice game. Player is supposed to roll the dice and it depends on luck what number he gets from 1 to 6. Ludo is a little popular in the world I guess. I care less whether this game is a culture or root of culture but one thing is for sure, this is a useless game and an evil which can destroy the life of its player and this is all that matter is reality. One must avoid becoming part of gambler’s community.

When someone talks about banning of bitcoins from governments, I really oppose that matter because governments must think of the positive and immense effect of bitcoins over the economic health of country. But when it comes to gambling and banning from governments, I must appreciate this act of government because here they are well aware of the risks and damages related with this gambling.

it is better to enjoy the games without thinking about the winning or losses so we can get fun with our friends. I think gambling relate to culture because in one country if there is any ceremony then in the night, they often to play the card, some of them use money just to get the fun. I see this on the television so I think maybe in another country, this is happening.

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?

It is true that we should enjoy gambling but as humans we tend to think of the benefits that we will have and that's just how we want it, to win. Probably those people that have rituals because they believed in it that it will work or something for me I don't have those kind of things.

I think gambling has been born tgether with humanity. Even in history, in stories about the past, bettng has been used by people in the past. Like i read somewhere about tossing coins. You bet in which side of the coin by tossing it upward.

Been part of out tradition on some countries which it isn't really complete if we don't see those things specially on occasions like "fiestas" where those kind of small scale gambling do exist.I do see some countries which do prohibit this but I do see most of the them do really allow this thing since it just really for the purpose of entertainment for those people who do visit or stroll into that area.
Even it is prohibited, there are exceptions when it comes into being used in it, I know that some "perya" were only allowed if that municipality permitted them, same in some wakes. Maybe it just depends on how strict the implementation since as long as people can do it without being arrested, then their fun continues.
Gambling has been around a long time and can not be destroyed and some are made as a tradition, and almost all countries ban gambling because it will get a loss and even become addicted to those who play it .. but it is difficult to ban it because gambling will always be there forever and their various ways will still gamble despite having to hide because it has become a cultural tradition of our ancestors
When someone talks about banning of bitcoins from governments, I really oppose that matter because governments must think of the positive and immense effect of bitcoins over the economic health of country. But when it comes to gambling and banning from governments, I must appreciate this act of government because here they are well aware of the risks and damages related with this gambling.
Punishing the gun instead of the shooter won’t end criminality in this world. Governments are not banning bitcoin due to any adverse effects rather they can’t bear this fact that bitcoin is liberating its holders economically from the claws of all those who enjoy high powers in a state. No matter how hard they try, they can’t stop bitcoin from prosperity because internet is unruly and free bird.

Talking about culture aspects of gambling we cant but mention the key principle (the forgotten one imo) that is player versus player. Casino is more like a legal burglar. If you agree, please get acquainted with this project, u may sure love it

Gamblers will always have many ways to find that idea gambling. Gambling is not just playing casino or just rolling dice, far from that everything we guess will be made a bet. Do you hear Ludo game? in my country that  is very popular. They gamblers find a new places to serve as gambling establishments.

Gambling is not a tradition anymore, but gambling is the root of tradition. No one can afford to find a way to stop in gambling, the old way that can be replaced in a new way. Regulation and religion only as a means to awaken the gambler in a moment.
Ludo is also a dice game. Player is supposed to roll the dice and it depends on luck what number he gets from 1 to 6. Ludo is a little popular in the world I guess. I care less whether this game is a culture or root of culture but one thing is for sure, this is a useless game and an evil which can destroy the life of its player and this is all that matter is reality. One must avoid becoming part of gambler’s community.
I hate those cultures which support gambling, because gambling is a bad thing and think about the culture which support such a bad thing no matter small scale of big scale gambling is gambling, it is like time. Late is late even one minute or one hour. I think that societies should accept only their traditional things and avoid gambling in their cultures.

That culture is killing us if we did not control ourselves, although I spend what I can afford to lose but gambling all the time
will only result to a bigger loses. Sometimes I regret to quit but I just cannot just totally quit, it seems like there is inside of me that is looking
this kind of risky way of having fun.

The only reason I can think of is because it became part of our past time. Some watch movies, sports or anything related but some want to spend it on gambling. It gives you excitement and there's money and you can socialize too.

Well, that is one of the most worse pastime you could ever have. I do have my own ways just to kill some time but not like gambling, gambling itself is avoidable if you don't to have any problem about losing your money, you might win but not always. Gambling is not a culture, it is a habit, and we have a choice if we wanted to do it or not.
I agree, that it's more of a habit than culture, but if you look at certain Asian countries, like Japan or China, it could be part of their culture. They were playing games like Mahjong for money for a long time and many people live in the game houses. They spend so much time there that they eat and drink at the game tables and go home only to get some sleep.
