Regulations in online Gambling sites

[skarais]

It seems the online gambling regulations contained in the opening post only for UK countries, if it's like that I feel relieved
that I don't have to follow these rules. Each country has its own policies regarding online gambling, but based on the information
I get. There are so many countries that have banned online gambling, including the country where I live. But fortunately it still can
accessed using a VPN.

You cannot access online gambling sites directly if state regulations have blocked them, the choice is to use a VPN to freely surf all sites on the internet. This action has violated applicable state regulations and is prepared to accept the consequences if something unwanted happens.

I don't get the reason why it seems to be illegal to gamble, because if we have tons of money and we use our own IP while gambling, there's still nothing wrong with it. ISP's will not broadcast it anyway because of privacy reason. But the reason why I think most of the gambler who does this is because they want to hide to avoid paying taxes. Or maybe, they have funds that are't came from legal ways.

ISP's do actually store your browser history for about 90 days, just in case the government needs to see or monitor you.

Yes, it is nothing wrong with that. But probably, the government wants to remind people not to gamble because gambling can make you have big losses. So in some countries, gambling is prohibited, and besides, some of the religion also prohibits gambling. But people still don't care about that, and they still playing gambling.

The ISP will keep the record for themselves, but if the government suspicious with one or more accounts in the bank, they will track it, even they will ask the ISP to give the record to them. I think some gamblers do not want to avoid paying taxes, but they are playing gambling because they want it.

Gamblers were not having the same stand on this because some gamblers wanted to get centralized to get protected from the government from the gambling abuses and others does have trust that much for they think they do not need the government or any third party protection.

In this case OP have stated that it is all about regulation on limiting bers per month every gambler. I think it is possible but mind you that it will not going to happen because gambling platform that has no regular gamblers will going to take losses operating and getting small ROI or no ROI at all. However, limiting bets will possibly be done to bigger gambling platform. And if it will going to happen pretty sure that gamblers or gambling sites will find loopholes to bet on the way they wanted.

I wonder what kind of protection that the gamblers wanted because I think the gamblers only need to protect their money from the loss, and they don't need to spend too much money. If we talk about the online gambling website, we will have the option to choose online gambling, and we have a recommended online gambling site to play.

But unfortunately, many people don't want to just on the recommended gambling website, but they are trying to play on the new gambling website, and in the end, they got scam by that site.

Limiting bets should be a job for the gamblers itself. The gambling website can do that, but they need approval from the gamblers because they have that money and want to spend that money. But some gamblers forgot to limit their money, so we see many of them losing their money in the end.

I don't want to discriminate but it seems the UK people are very much into gambling and the regulations are meant to curb or slow down how people gamble, it's quite harsh if you are living in the UK, like your country we don't have so many regulations on how people should gamble here although I wish we have one, it's because our government run the casinos and lottery here and its revenues are a big help to our government's coffer.

Nope Your wrong,European people does not a total gambler and this move of government is to at least prevent more bad thing comes from gambling showing concern to their People .
it is not because a government is tightening their rules and laws meaning they are most involving in gambling.
This may come as preventive measure since the Pandemic really ruins the economy of many country including europe on whos recently one of the most infected continent of Corona virus.

100EUR/mo is really low, also if you are a true-blooded gambler, you already know by now how to get by on this rule. Cant really understand why the gov's want to limit gambling since the economy isnt in good standings right now.

For None Gamblers?this is big enough lol.

But of course Gambling activities require more money when you are a active gambler but this is not our concern now instead providing more money is what we want for safer and sure tomorrow while waiting for the Cure in this Covid19.

in what way ? to limit gambling expense in order to save money ? because this move done by them cant be a good solution if for the purpose of lessening the infection because the regulation were only imposed online  . they should regulate offline casinos because that is more important  but i think they already done that and they need to foccus more online due to the growing demand for  gambling sites during these times .

Every casinos must be regulated and that is what the way comes though this is not happening everywhere specially to those countries that has no strict rules in gambling(mostly those gambling lovers countries).

Government must protect gamblers because we all know how addicting gambling is and human mostly cannot deny the call.

VPNs are a great way to surf the way without any country restriction and to add a layer of privacy, however when it comes to online gambling most casinos, if not all, forbid the use of VPNs and while you could probably play in the casino as soon as you try to withdraw your money you will face a KYC request or in the worst cases scenario you will be accused of having multiple accounts, violating the terms of service of the casino and you will be denied your money, so be careful.

You have less chances of getting caught using a VPN however VPNs is also risky in gambling, you'll fall in not very ideal situation when the casino caught you using a VPN and found out that you are from a restricted country with strict ruling in online gambling. I call it not fortunate coz you can access using a VPN, I call it gambling yourself to gamble.

VPN puts you at risk if you use it to circumvent censorship and blocking. Many sites ban it directly in their TOS. Maybe they don't enforce it all the time but if you're caught with big winnings they're in their rights to deny you.

Well, that's sort like a cheating method of the gambling sites.

I've seem that kind of scenario many times, first they will allow you to deposit and bet on the site despite knowing you are already violating in the first place, but if you win big money, that's where they act telling you that you violated their TOS, and that's a big BS, but we can't complain since we really violate, so let's just make sure we know what we are doing so we won't complain.

Although you have fewer chances of getting caught, you need to be careful because your ISP has your access data, so your ISP can still know what sites you are browsing. And if you lived in the country which gambling is prohibited, your government can ask the data from your ISP, and they will investigate every customer's data.

Perhaps, we will be okay if we don't use too big money to playing gambling, so we can avoid the investigating by the government. But still, it is not easy to regulate online gambling because that means related to the regulation of gambling on the internet. After all, the gambling website itself will not try to host the site in the country which gambling is prohibited.

I think it's a good move to have a cap of 100 euros deposit from own pocket. The reason is as gamblers our greed is beyond infinity. Now, we think we can win a lot. So if we deposit 50 euros and make a profit of 500 euros, that's cool. And we can continue to play with the 500 euros to make more. But, in end we lose. The cap isn't on how much we can play from any profits we can make from casino but only on the amount we can deposit from our own pocket!

Plus, you'll often be asked to KYC anyway and if your IP address and actual access location don't match, it's another can of worms. It's not a very fair case at all in most circumstances with ToS and it's well known, so yeah. If you can't play it normally, you shouldn't. VPN should be a way to protect your privacy, rather than using it to circumvent ToS.

Your are referring to soft cap, I wonder why you have said that it is low? If I am not mistaken it is not hard cap right? where the owners of the casinos will be permitted to have a maximum of 100£ monthly.

I am not against to any regulations in online gambling sites as long as it will give the gamblers the security of their money and for the casino owners to earn a decent amount of profit even if they will pay some taxes to the government.

What about those bigtime gamblers who have huge fund in their wallets to play with? I can suggest, there should be a transparency in gambler's fund and take a percentage of it that is allowed to be gambled for a day. because mainly having a cap of 100 euros will be so little.

Or else, they limit the number of bets a gambler could make depending on his losses. If I am not mistaken, the rules are so favorable for the gambler as they will not be addicted and could save their funds in the future.

Of course you can switch-on to VPN: though not advisable. This has caused so many displeased stories on this forum in which gamblers( victims) where queried for not properly read the TOS of some gambling platforms. The use of this VPN can cause frozen of account with some gambling platforms or when detected during withdrawal process funds will be seize and forfeited for violation. While use VPN, be ready for the outcome.

Of course its not fun when a gambler have baned of account because he doesnt read the sites rules carefully. I have logged in several times and gambled on sites that are blocked in my country using a VPN, its just that I didnt experience any problem because all of my bet were lost. Supposedly if the site prohibit the use of VPNs then they also dont accept any bet from the account. I believe the gamblers fault belong, as the site has stated it on the rules. Avoiding risks is the best option.

Site is not going to recognize the usage of VPNs and users are violating their laws for their benefits, still someone can use VPN safe if they are using premium version static dedicated IP proxy so you will never get caught that you are faking your server and 99% you won't get any issues with this method but it still goes against their terms so account will be banned if they found the violations.
