Corruption will never end until there is no value for money, no one will ever get satisfied with what they have but not everyone involved in corruption but everyone has been a part in it, if we want to have corruption free country then every individuals should stop giving bribes, just start support the shills and talents so one day we could hae someone to rule with no intention of earning money.

The corruption will be happening in all countries because people are hunger to chase wealth from many sides. We will not do corruption if we can feel grateful for everything that we have, and we don't have a passion for chasing more and more. We are okay with what we have, and if we don't have something like others, we don't pursue it because of satisfaction. But I believe that someday, the government will have honest people who can rule with wise people and don't want to corrupt people's money.

Last year it is estimated that approximately 10 billion pounds were spent on gambling! It is estimated that approximately 5% of compulsive gamblers seek help from a gambling program or gambling rehab. This means that 95% of problem gamblers have their lives ruined by debt and depression.

That is what happens if we are too often playing gambling until we don't stop that. The risk of gambling can ruin our lives, and debt and depression will be on our lives. If we can't control ourselves, we will end like those people because we will not realize how much money we already spent on gambling. Debt and depression will chase us nonstop, and if we don't try to ask for help from other people, we will not think too long to end our lives.

Hilarious but super lucky.

In #23, I think it was a slap in the wife's face when she wanted to prove his husband how lottery is a waste of money but ended up winning a huge price. I wonder what his husband's reaction was and the wife herself. Does she still think gambling is a waste of money or did she have a change of heart? Haha.

Putting yourself in her shoes what might be your reaction? Hahaha. for sure after hitting that Jackpot her wife is now a change person not unless the husband changed her wife hahaha.

In #49, on the other hand, that was some courage that man got there. What he did was very risky and could result in him losing everything. Good thing, he's lucky enough that day and took home a huge prize. He can then buy more clothes than he originally had.

So damn lucky indeed.

Find himself lucky and now enjoying more than the usual. Lucks really change people's life.

Interest fact, compulsive gambling does not mean that you are a weak person. Many people who have become problem gamblers are very successful and are seen by others as strong and intelligent people.

Gambling industry is big and it isnt really just limited on Las vegas alone but also world wide on where there are really those people who do really make big bets that which people
dont even expect for them to reach those levels.We know that each person do have its own financial capacity.Those mind blown gambling facts are really showing that
gambling can really make a person do able to make unbelievable kind of decisions.

Interest fact, compulsive gambling does not mean that you are a weak person. Many people who have become problem gamblers are very successful and are seen by others as strong and intelligent people.

Only a few do able to make it out or able to pull it through but on bigger percentage majority of them did really fell down into the ground.

That's why most of the government isn't really against the gambling industry, there is a huge portion of funds that comes from gambling taxes. Resource. If america is spending billion dollars to gambling, it is so surprising that france actually  spend 83.5% GGR taxex on operators and USA only ranked 7th.

But that isn't the case here as we can see gambling platforms dominance in the economy which makes it hard for us to implement gambling regulations.

That is true and that is why it is projected int he world that for gambling nothing better than LAs Vegas. Government earns a huge amount as a revenue form the gambling industry and more it flourishes means more revenue to the government. So, they were little eager as well to reopen Las Vegas in this times.

Long and informative thread, 23 and 49 is quite hilarious this show really that gambling is for lucky one's mostly those who didn't expect it, they have higher chance of winning lol. It is a interesting topic found myself reading it all.

23 was funny, after all what should have been a lesson for the husband ended up being a lesson for herself because after all even if winning the lottery is incredibly unprovable at the same time someone has to win and this happened to her just as she was trying to prove the opposite point so it is hilarious.

However the 49 point is a clear example of what should not be done, this person risked everything in his life and even if he won that was a huge risk, what would have he done if he lost? That is the kind of loss that can lead to a life full of difficulties and depression.

Indeed, the reality is like that, for the American government the gambling industry includes the largest tax revenue.
So it's no wonder the American government has given permission to reopen casinos not only in Las Vegas, but in several
other cities as well. Even though the spread of the Corona Virus in America has not shown a decreasing. The American
government made this decision will definitely want make the American economy recover. Because indeed the gambling industry
in America can have a considerable influence on the American economy.

The World’s Smallest Casino is Run from the Back of a London Cab

If you’re looking for the address for the world’s smallest casino, chances are that you won’t find it. Why? Because it’s operated from the back seat of a cab in London—it’s a mobile casino!

This casino is an extension of Grosvenor Casino in London. It comes complete with a dealer, gaming table and bar. It even comes with a TV that shows sports. You’re allowed to go anywhere you want with this cab as long as you make a charitable donation.

That sounds like fun but could go horribly wrong. Imagine being drunk at night and going home in such a cab. I would be losing so much money. Better to leave the credit card at home. But then again a lot of casinos have apps for the phone and it's the same risk. Most of the time I lose money when gambling drunk. Like yesterday night, instead of going straight to bed I decided to play some blackjack and ended up losing $50. It's so hard sometimes to refrain from gambling if everything is accessible 24/7.

Not really I think. Heck, it actually sounds fun imo. It's a kind of new experience, travelling while gambling, and not on a phone at that but rather at a table the cab itself has. Seems like quite a ride to enjoy with whenever I want to just, you know, travel without any real goal or anything.

Just the fact that it brings in money is enough of a reason for the government to allow it. Not to mention the fact that most would argue about America banning gambling, when it has one of the most active and biggest casinos out there, not to mention that gamblers would argue that they are old enough to live their own lives and manage their own finance. And yes, I do agree with that, especially since I believe that America lets their kids know about planning and stuff at an early age, letting them live by themselves early on than later.

Let's also add that they won't ban a hobby they themselves are fond of doing. We all know some politicians are gambling addicts, and some gamblers or owners of casinos are connected to politicians making it harder to ban gambling in a certain country. Politics is dirty and all you need is money and connections, for you to influence about the outcome of a bill in the congress.

I searched on google with the keyword of the bold part. It showed the Santa Ysabel but it has shut its doors years ago.

And for the Grosvenor casino, I've found this video for others to have an idea how does it look inside and out.

indeed no one should prohibit their hobby in gambling establishments, but these governments just want to get extra money by withdrawing permits to establish or open gambling establishments, so gambling establishment developers have to take that attitude, but in my opinion the regulation is still not applied in all countries, there are still offline gambling places that have survived government regulations.

It's really fancy. Actually I become interested to search this facts because I saw some video on the Facebook regarding this legit card game inside a taxi cab. Luckily I come up to the website which write this fact. I believe the author means on this fact as the smallest travelling casino since the previous is not operating anymore.

It's really cool to play on this cab especially when it comes out from nowhere. I will try to research about there bet size and max/min on bets.

Or maybe that time they are the smallest casino?when they start to operate?but yeah they are closed now as it was indicated in google when i searched.

I wonder how long each time they stay in places?cool to see that there are already moving casino that exist in some countries i hope there will be one in my place.

Interest fact, compulsive gambling does not mean that you are a weak person. Many people who have become problem gamblers are very successful and are seen by others as strong and intelligent people.

Many as in majority?or some of them because those people i knew that once a problematic gambler are now becomes poorer .

It is really fun to read this kind of facts not just in gambling but also in other topics as well.
I always find it interesting reading some facts about anything since it would enlighten me and extend my knowledge about it,
Even though it wouldn't really help a lot in real life it is great to know this kind of things.

^^ No way,,, the smallest casino in the world is always in a small Asian classroom inside a pencil case, with one dice and a piece of paper to pretend it is like a betting table, or with the small tiny playing cards you can find inside cotton candy as a deck of blackjack or asian poker;)

Anyone know what I am talking about here?

I would like to add to the Lootbox Fact. There was a scandal that involved two Youtubers playing this lootbox and gaining rare CS:GO cosmetics thus encouraging their viewers who are mostly children to play on the site and gamble their money to loot boxes. It turns out that the owner of the website is the Youtuber which caused backlash and lawsuit.

Fact 31 is by far the funniest one I have known in regards to gambling, we all know that courtroom is not something to get goofy and have fun and games but then it happened. A pinball game in a courtroom is legendary and should be a milestone in gambling history.
