Do casino and sports betting platform owners gamble as much as other people?

[Cookdata]

Farmers who have chickens for eggs especially on a large scale, easily get tired of eating the eggs from their chickens or even eggs in general. Caterers get tired of eating their own pastries, just as people who are exposed to certain produce get tired of them due to over exposure. Do you think this experience is the same for casino owners and owners of sports betting platforms?

Do you think that the owners of casinos and sports betting platform, gamble as much as other people do? If they gamble, do you think they gamble on their platform?

There is an extra satisfaction you get when you consume the same goods over and over, you don't have to be a farmer to have this feeling, and you will get tired at the end of the day, but gambling, on the other hand, is all about addiction, there is no marginal utility or satisfaction you can get from gambling except winning of bets that can make you happy, and before you can achieve that, you may experience plenty of losses, that been said.

Low key, the casino owner understands gambling better than the players; they know why they established the platform; they wouldn't be so stupid to do so when they know they could lose everything (I'm talking about the sport aspect), but they might play the casino aspect for entertainment purposes with some dummy money (not real money). In my opinion, a businessperson will remain a businessperson.

I only know Eddie who is owner of Stake from this category, he usually don't wager much but he gambles on stream at Saturday. Afaik, the owners don't play that much for obvious reasons, it is his loss or win so it doesn't sound as cool as other gamblers play, IMO. Investing in the financial markets is best option, so they don't take gambling seriously. Imagine hitting max win and slot pays max win payout from your own budget.

If they can get a public win they can be accused of modifying their games, even if there's no proof for that there's always going to be people who think they're not really winning anything and it's just for show. If they lose it's counterproductive for the business. It just shows that even owners of the casino lose there so maybe it's unlucky or something. I think there's no good way to go about it if you're running a casino. It's like a baker eating his own bread in public. You start thinking there's something wrong with his sales if he has to go that far.

I think Eddie's gambling is for marketing purposes, although I think that owner also gambles on their platform, I do not think that they gamble as much as other gamblers do.  I believe  gambler owners' time is preoccupied and is used to plan and make their business more profitable.  So rather than wasting time gambling in his own platform, I think casino owner spend time analyzing the market and planning strategies on how to stay on top of the chain.

[Volgastallion]

Man this its like in drugs, the good seller never try his own product, and in the mayority of the cases they know and feel superior to all the idiots who are addicted to their shit.

Its easy as that. You maybe can know some owner who play but their can be two types:
- And addcit who can end destroying his own empire.
- A very disciplinate person who only play a few bucks for fun with some friends time to time.

Casino owners usually plan several kinds of strategies that can be used for their platform, but it should be noted that for a new gambling place, it will require a very extra touch, meaning that the gambling owner will not be able to relax because he has to turn all the money in the gambling place to make it more profitable. there are many and there are no problems when someone withdraws a very large amount, but for now if the gambling place is big then the owner only does an analysis of the results of the gambling place that he has every day or every week.

We can't take this as an example because that is done through a live stream and more of a regular marketing park of the Stake.

I'm sure these owners don't really take gambling as their main activity because handling a company is really time-consuming.

Regardless, I do think that it's not a big deal if these owners gamble as long as they are taking properly of their business.

[goinmerry]

I don't know the certainty of this but most likely I don't think so.
The conditions are like you said about the other disclosures and in the country I live in now there is a very big cigarette factory but the owner even hates cigarettes.
Things like this can still happen for gambling. They do business in gambling does not mean they have to plunge into gambling and do gambling all day long. Moreover, they know that gambling is not something that can be profitable for businessmen like them because regardless of anything they are managers and the ones who get the most profit for what they do gambling again for reasons of fun they are not gambling anymore I think.

There are owners too that can't associate their entertainment part to the business part most of the time. There are lots of things on their hand that they can't do now the usual things they are doing before. Since handling any business requires hands-on, might be these owners can't find a way now to do gambling or they are just doing that during their free-time.

Either way, even they still do gamble or not, that was only for entertainment purposes.

What the higher authorities of a gambling does is real marketing. We can't make a connect with real gambling. This doesn't gonna give any kind of feel or experience, because whether it is a win/loss this doesn't affect them in any means.

Owners focus will be much into diversifying the revenue generated out of any particular business. According to me, casino owners will be having more businesses. So, what's been earned will be invested on something else. We can't be sure to make the same revenue through gambling business all time.

Imagine playing any casino game slots or live gambling such as BlackJack but in demo version where you get to play only with fake coins it’s going to be just a time waste without any benefits or excitement to spend much time as in real money gambling where all your emotions are present. Even if that owner uses his own money he knows winning or losing doesn’t make any difference so it’s going to be the same experiment where most probably he will get so bored.
This will be so different if he gambles in a different casino that he doesn’t own, knowing he will spend and risk real money but even though i don’t think owners of casinos doesn’t gamble that much and if they do surely they will do in different casino to get some excitement and enjoy

A business owner can be very time disciplined so they will prefer to use their time to work, which can generate passive income rather than gambling. They know that gambling can make them addicted, especially by having their own casino where they can freely play gambling on the spot.

And only a stupid owner wants to destroy his own business empire by using a lot of money to play gambling. Or they could play gambling to entertain their business partners or introduce their business to their colleagues.

I don't have a friend who has a gambling business but I'm sure the owner of a gambling business is someone who has ever played gambling but his mindset has changed from a gambler to a gambling business owner and regarding whether they gamble as much as other people do, that's what has to be done we ask each gambling owner personally LOL.

If they gamble, do you think they gamble on their platform?

maybe they play on their gambling site for various purposes like testing their system or others but this is definitely a secret that must be kept by all gambling business owners. If they also play on the site they created, doesn't that appear as an act of fraud?

[Fundamentals Of]

Not as much probably. An owner of a casino or sports betting platform is probably more disciplined in gambling. That's probably why they have come to build their own business. If they are just like the rest of the heavy gamblers, they probably wouldn't have saved enough money to start a business.

If they gamble, they will probably use their own casinos or sports betting platform. Win or lose, they are at least contributing to their business. And it's their own money they are playing and winning or losing. They win or they lose, but the money doesn't come out of their own control.

There's no fraud in it, it's not recommended that they play because they are not going to profit from doing so, if they are going to play their motivation should be in checking if their platform is doing great and they may act like a real gambler and don't think that they own the site, I read in one article where a clothing owner disguises himself as a customer to see if his staff is doing good in their customer support and to observe customers reaction, this is a good business practice.
But playing for the sake of playing or winning for owners is not good and just a waste of time.

Generally gambling tends to work more among middle class or lower income people. Can also do in higher classes but comparatively less. People who conduct this business spend most of their time on expanding and managing their business. They don't want to waste their precious time for little money. Betting wins and losses but those traders only focus on how to earn money. A gambler is willing to lose money but a business man is never willing to lose money. He may get less profit in the business but he is not willing to lose money like loss in a bet.

I personally feel that they do. In my childhood I always wanted my dad to become shop owner so I could eat tonnes of snack for free. I think it's very similar with casino platform owners. They probably loved gambling, they always spent their life on it and probably in time they thought it could be very profitable business to own one... Its probably logical reasoning. I think they may decrease their gambling play time after they established casino. Casino owners are generally getting rich very quickly.

Are they still allowed to win the jackpot? Though most of the movies that I've watched, some owners are indeed into gambling as well but I'm not sure if its happening in real life. Anyway, regardless if they gamble or not they are still into gambling industry and we can consider them as a gambler as well. They have a huge business to run, so maybe playing is their only way to relieve their stress from their work. Casino requires a lot of money but if they are able to established a good site probably this can be an easy generating profit for them.

They might not often gamble or even not but for sure, they also have time to spend at the casino and enjoy themselves. But if we think they are gambling to make money, I guess they're not because they already know what are the results. Besides, they are doing this business for the gamblers. They are not gamblers now but the owner of the casino and I know that they are already happy seeing the people who use their platform.

The question would be more interesting if you take into consideration some relative numbers as well. What does as mucheven mean here? Do you mean in terms of time or in terms of spending on gambling relative to income?

Take a casino owner who makes 100k per month and he spends 1% of that on gambling but only plays once a week. The guy is still fine if he sets this limit for himself and that's it. If someone is an excessive gambler, I don't know whether it is likely that that person runs successful casinos and has always been an excessive player. It could be the case, but I would imagine that people running successful businesses do have some self-control that might be stronger relative to another average person. There is also the difference that a casino owner's motivation for gambling might be different from that of an ordinary player. The intent might rather be to represent a casino on certain occasions or use one's own reputation (if there is any) to attract new players etc.

Maybe he plays because he has easy access to his own site but maybe not because as the owner he is already preoccupied with all kinds of developments and strategies to be able to develop gambling sites even bigger but what is certain is that gambling site owners are people who initially is a gambler and went into this business because he knew the amount of profit that could be obtained.

Maybe at start they are really a bettors and just familiarized how the sports betting or the casino runs then see the potential to earn base on the demand they see. But if we talk about they play then maybe not, since they provably think about on development side so for sure they focus their time on thinking about how their platform could grow and most provably they don't have time left to bet especially on other platform.
