But if you are in the right mind even how you addicted to gambling you will never use that money that comes from the government as financial assistance just for gambling. During this pandemic and we are all experienced an economic crisis, we should widely open our minds to keep or save money. Spend wisely for only necessities purposes not just for gambling.

Well, that's their life. The government has done their part in helping poor people, I think your government has a punishment once they are caught spending their money on gambling even in buying things that not mandatory.

Gamblers will always find ways to satisfy their lust and this is the characteristics of gambling that cannot be change mate.

There are other gamblers that stay away from gambling now because of lack of money.

But there are others that can sustain their habit so even what kind of sports this be what important is they can bet and make enjoy.

i have seen a post here that people even betting in Marble race?i really don't know if that is legit but still a proof how gamblers being greed to bet.

There are limited ways of keeping yourself entertained in lockdown. Gambling is a good option to avoid anxiety.

There is no wrong in betting/gambling in this kind of situation because this is the most boring time we ever experience in our entire life,forced to stay at home for 2 months?

But Spending the money that supposedly for support to bring food in your table and instead use to Gamble?this is Sh*t people and they are not the one who must received this Help from the government.

While many people now are seeking for help and even Las Vegas has this issue of people asking for help.and these gamblers do this kind of careless actions?if i am the government to decide?i will surely bring this shi*ts into jail and will let them suffer till they realized what they done wrong.

You may be right in theory.However I have had anxiety during this time as I decided to play slot games and to test with small bets for how many spins the bonus game or winning features like expanding wilds until you win in a spin can happen.The result being not good,many games that I have tried gave the bonus game after more than 300-500 spins which as you can imagine make you lose money overall by raising anxiety.I am trying to quit but damn this slots are addicted.

But this OP brought up is on another story. The said cash they are gambling was supposed to be used for in need purposes like buying food for their home and besides gathering on public places or huge crowd isn't allowed by the law enforcers; that include these gambling activities. Foods should be the necessity nowadays not the things that keep them entertained. Not to be blunt but those who are on destitute situations are those who don't really abide by what's been said by the government, they tend to be more pretending deaf of what's happening.

I don't want to include everything for the mistake of the few but I guess there's still more who are still responsible for what's been given to them. Hoping that there will be a bigger sanction for those who caught doing this on the amelioration given to them, it's the hard earn money of those who pay taxes to the government.

That really makes me frustrated, I can't fathom what the government feels like but this kind of events makes me sad and loss my faith that poor people need help, I do not generalize all the poor people in my country but this gambling addicts are part of the poverty line and that is infuriating because they have the stimulus while other more poor people haven't received it yet, in the report I have read there are also individual who used the stimulus cash as a front for drug money, this kind of people is the most vile and they make me repulse which is kind of sad and pathetic for these people not being grateful to the help that they receive but instead abuse it and play the victim when get caught, the good thing about that is that they are strip of benefits that all the poor people receive from the government and they are sentenced to prison. This is what you can expect from a third world country like mine, people play the victim when they get caught red handed and justify their mistakes  with irrational reasons.

[Ucy]

People should always be discouraged from gambling. Gambling in cockfigh (bad game), card games, sports betting centers, etc not a good thing. You only bet little or what you can afford to lose esp in luck-based bettings. And avoid betting on bad games like cockfight.

"Bet, but don't gamble"
^this is like telling a friend at home to "Drink, but don't get drunk". Drink only the good ones though. There are lots of bad drinks out there.

Bet safe!

[kayvie]

That is really irritating, here in our local area who also received the money from the government, they also used the money to gamble. Aside from using the money in the wrong way, it seems like they don't want this pandemic to be over because they all want to be outside of their houses just to gamble. You can see that they are really enjoying receiving the money from the government, they enjoy the support money because it is free and they don't need to work for it.

Yes, this is a different matter and this money should not be used in gambling,

A lot of other people are also looking forward to the said support from the government, those people who really in need but these people just used the money for their own satisfaction in gambling. Instead of using the money to buy their needs such as food, vitamins, etc., they just used it to enjoy and kill their boredom.

[ryzaadit]

Any proof to support ur statement, or it's just based on our own speculation?

The government targeting poor people, someone who got the covid-19, unemployed people and other people who cant really supporting their life during the crisis. I believe before the government giving some donation to the people, they will make a survey regarding each person who receives the donation. Yeah we all know, government also give some money but most of the donation will be a product like food or other stuff that can be consumed each day money only a certain percentage from the total estimation donation with food and other stuff.

And, a person already out of food a person cannot buying anything he will not really be stupid using the money for gambling activity.

[DarkDays]

Anybody that absolutely cannot stop gambling for extended periods of time is addicted to gambling.

Of course, if you ask these people why they have just blown their amelioration while gambling, they will typically neglect to mention this addiction—since many aren't even aware they are addicted.

It's similar to when the wine shops were re-opened when India eased restrictions in some areas. Then you see lines a kilometer long of people wanting to get wine... Ask any of these people why they're willing to wait several hours just to buy some wine, and you'll hear a huge number of excuses but probably none of them will be "I'm an alcoholic."

There are a lot of things that should be prioritized and not gambling, you can play video games, you can entertain yourself without even spending a money. I know the this quarantine is really boring but spending your money in gambling isn't the best decision to make yourself busy. There are household chores that you need to do instead of wasting money, gambling is very risky and most of the people know that. Those casinos should give some help and donations to those people who are really needy so that people will recognize them and will increase their reputation for more customers to visit them after this pandemic. Government is not that sufficient when it comes to giving people what they need because they have other things to prioritize.

That is true, gamblers will be gamblers, the only sad thing is that they are using government funds to fuel their addiction and they don't deserved the money being dole out to them.

They are willing to take the risk even in this lockdown and I do hope that the authorities are going to put them in jail to teach them a lesson.

[Nalbo]

Most countries have legalized gambling in one form or other. There are many bad habits people indulge themselves in. While the negative effect of gambling are mainly financial, a responsible gambler would do it in a way to entertain himself while not taking any financial risk he can't afford. 
In my country there are no open real life casinos so all people do is gamble online.

The bad side also is that these gamblers might be using the money for their family's food. And when they will lose, no food on the table. Really unfortunate for his family. I have nothing against gambling as long as the gambler is responsible about his actions, but if he's already hurting his family because of this, I think it's time for the gambler to contemplate his situation.

Obvious yes, they (the addicted gamblers) can't just help it especially as the lockdown would also means other activities will be on shutdown. The disturbing true is that, majority of them are usually youths in their early 18-25 years. Some do it intentionally without even been addicts while we also have those that would had love to stop but because, gambling has become a part of them and it might also be the source of their income, but they can't resist the urge to gamble in this sport events.

In every country, we'll also find those that'll go against what the don'ts of the government of the day are either as a means of protesting or just disobedience. But since our discussion is focused on the addicts, I think it's just something they can control and assuming sport event were still ongoing as normal, the rate at which the gambling industry would had received patronage would had skyrocket probably due to the mouthwatering offers the sport books will be using as a marketing mechanism.

A gambler will always find a way and means to gamble

it's not just the player who will find a way to play, casinos are a good deal that's why many people create casinos even if governments forbid them, so I believe that the winners in the middle of this situation are the owners of the casinos

here in our country you cannot stop some gamblers from gambling they will always find ways

in your country gamble Is illegal?

our government is giving a dole out and implementing amelioration to those people who are badly in need of money, but unfortunately, there are people who receive dole out from the government and receiver of amelioration, gamble the money they received and bet cockfighting and card games, so many of these people are caught and reported on the media.

Is a lot of irresponsibility to use the little money that the person has to buy food and go to play gambles, drink beer or use to party

You really cannot gambler they always find a way even in the worst-case situation like the pandemic, how about in your country do you have some people who cannot stopped to gamble even when your country is in lockdown

in my country people are playing online, as we are a poor country and the government controls most businesses so it is easy for the government to close casinos and everything related to offline gambling

A lot of people actually cannot be stopped their gambling activity even in this lockdown,
In our country, they even become the subject in the news that there are people who continue their gambling instead of implementing social distancing and even told that they should stay inside their home. But I guess, all this reminder was set aside because they only follow what they want.
