Gambling is a choice.

[Unbunplease]

Gambling is mostly ban in some area which is not practised except it is done without the awareness of the government or people knowing about it. Whatever results we get from gambling, we should be ready to admitting the result since we are not forced to go into gambling. Those that are making money from gambling are doing that because they are prepared for whatever outcome the get from it whether is for a lose or it's for s gain.

On the other hand, luck smiles on newcomers. About bans - bans breed illegal casinos, which can be bad enough for players. Illegal casinos can lead - due to their criminal nature - to various serious problems for players, including non-payment of winnings.

[worle1bm]

By knowing that gambling is mostly prohibited, we already know what the options are for us, whether to decide to gamble or not to come into contact with gambling. If we decide to gamble, we must be prepared for all the risks, including if later we are caught gambling by the officers, and they catch us and give us punishment. But that didn't deter many people, and they immediately stopped because some of them continued to gamble even though the officers had punished them.

Not only gambling if something is prohibited and we do the same thing we are indulging in illegal activity which is punishable offence.This is why many people are shifting to online gambling because you don't have to face much restrictions as well you can try lot of of different casinos with lot of games.But if we talk about street gambling then people still do it even if it's banned because corruption is there and those areas are under government supervision but still you see people gambling over there.So there is risk factor there to players.

Something happened in my locality and I just wonder if that's how we also behave in the online space.

So, they're always a group of rougues in my country, they're often sited in the market place where there's a reasonable population, what's their work???

The have things in a martch box like stones and sticks, they'll ask you to pick the one out of it that has something, depending on what the want....

At first, when you pick, they'll let you win so as to drag your attention, then subsequent wins, you'll be at the losing side and the make sure the drain your pockets entirely.

So, just last week, this lady fell a victim and she was shouting and crying, the had obviously emptied her pocket and even gotten her phone from her in the process of the gambling.

These types of people, I consider them to be cheaters, and I don't think these types of gambles are just ordinary; otherwise, why would these lady start shouting and crying after she had lost money and her phone? I hope she knew what she was about to do was gambling, but when she got there and started it, they were convincing her that if she continued, she would win something big, which is not the case.

Do you wish the site can refund your money??

OP, do you imply that after losing money on a wager, I should consider asking the casino website for a refund? NO I cannot even consider thinking about something that I know will never occur. However, this is why we call it a gamble because you either win or lose. For this reason, I always view gambling as something I will do for fun and not as a means of making money. This way, I won't risk investing too much money and will still be okay if I lose.

[Strongkored]

My thoughts, is this how we often feel when we lose out on a bet??
Do you wish the site can refund your money??

No, I don't think it's the same.
These people are clearly committing fraud and the players don't even realize that they are being cheated. Sometimes they can even use violence or hypnotic so that people don't realize that their money has run out and also don't have the opportunity to stop because there is coercion that drives them to keep playing.
Meanwhile, when you play at an online casino, no one will force you to keep playing until your money runs out unless you can't control yourself, and playing at an online casino you still have a chance to win, I mean there are opportunities to win and lose, it's not just defeat that you will suffer.
If you play and lose and still expect to be able to get your money back from the casino it proves that you can't afford to lose and are not a responsible gambler, it would be best not to gamble at all because people with that attitude will charge accusations without excuses, and will start yelling scam at the casino where he plays because he feels cheated even though losing is a common thing in gambling.

Yeah that's an option or alternative option for those who don't love to go face to face or for someone who want their gambling as a discreet activity, they can just play in front of their mobile device or computers without any risk of revealing your identity. But it's still depends on one person who involve with gambling activities.

It's your option and your decision to take and more on your responsibilities. Take your journey with heavy precautions, not being addicted.

No one force her to gamble her money so it happened because it's her own decision. I feel bad that she can't accept the outcome but that's how gambling works, you will win at first then you'll lose your money.

My thoughts, is this how we often feel when we lose out on a bet??

Depends on how you deal with losses. If at first you're aware that losing your money is very possible then it would not he hard to accept the outcome. Gamblers with such reaction after experiencing losses probably didn't expect to lose their money and has high expectation that they will win.

Do you wish the site can refund your money??

Gambling is not only offering their players to win. But they want also to satisfy you in your gambling experience by having fun while playing. Moreover, it's a business so if you have such mindset then don't try to gamble your money so you would not think that the casino will refund your money if ever you lose.

Gambling ban is not common in most countries because it depends on the government in place, some of th support gambling while few does not, we also have the challenges from the individual gamblers who cannot maintain peace and orderliness in gambling than to cause violence and fight at the cause of gambling, all these are what the government look into and put i consideration to ban it in other for them to reduce the rate through whic people abuse the use of gambling the negative way.

[Webetcoins]

Petty people are found both online and offline, one should stay away from them. It was woman's fault to bother with these people in first place, just like if you get scammed online, gullibility is to be blamed.

Those who have already experienced such things will surely stay away from them, but those who are new to them become victims of such scams. A person who is visiting a market or any public place for the first time will obviously not know that there are scammers like that roaming around always ready to scam you and go away with all your money.

Similarly, in the online world, a newbie would never know what is a scam and what he needs to avoid in order to stay safe online, when we were newbies, even we were vulnerable to all kinds of scams and now when we know, we think everyone would know which is not the case.

By playing at online casinos they can play cross-country gambling and also use a VPN so that they are not detected by regulations in their country. Online casinos now also provide various kinds of conveniences for gamblers where we can use crypto and still hide our identity as gamblers from other people. And this means that playing gambling is a choice because each person will choose what they want to do in their spare time. And by using crypto casinos, gamblers can keep their activities hidden in gambling.

One of the major advantages of online gambling is that a gambler can play completely safe. If his site is secure then he can gamble from the comfort of his home. Which is not possible in any physical casino. Furthermore, gambling is not legal everywhere in the world, so not all places have physical casino company. But in online a person can safely continue his gambling activities if he wants. Many times, if there are restrictions in a country, many people conduct gambling even using VPN. But there is definitely a risk in that case. They also have the power to restrict your account at any time if they wish to trace your account. And all the gambling sites which are based on KYC, where no one will get advantage of gambling without KYC.

While gambling is a choice, I don't support people defaulting the laws of their country and putting themselves in situations where they can be cheated on. If a users uses a VPN, he should first confirm if it's okay by the casino or gambling site that he's using it on.

We have many accusations when members accounts were closed for asking them to verify their identity after they won big amounts and they found out that the users are accessing the sites illegally through VPN as their country of resident isn't welcome on the casino.

Online Gambling makes it easy to forget that there are laws and regulations that need to be followed so we should be very careful about the decision we take and make sure we know every terms and conditions of the gambling sites or casinos that we play on.

[SirLancelot]

Gambling is always a choice and if ever you’re being lured to gamble, then you should be responsible enough whatever the outcome of your decision. And to note that gambling is more on losing than gaining profits, so it’s already an initiative to never gamble an amount that you can’t manage to lose. I guess the lady is a first time gambler and she has no idea that gambling could emptied her pocket when all she believes that gambling will give her huge profits after consistent betting.

From there, we can conclude that gambling does not provide benefits but will give us defeat, so we must try to prevent too many losses. And gambling is indeed a choice, and we don't need to choose gambling to make money because many people have tried it but failed to make money and instead lost a lot of money. This is different from if we work, we can earn money for our lives. In gambling, we will only lose the money we earn at work. But she should have known that gambling could cause her to lose money instead of making big profits. Hopefully, she can learn from his experience.

Gambling does provide benefits, but only at times, so one shouldn't think of it as a way to gain benefits constantly since it is not something that makes everyone rich. Only the luckiest people in the world manage to become rich through gambling and those are a few out of millions that gamble from all around the globe at different casinos online and offline.

So one should only see gambling as an opportunity that might do something good for them but the chances are mainly against them, so they need to make sure that they are not giving away everything they have only for that.

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.

These sort of street fraudsters can easily be dealt with by the police most of the time, it's illegal to engage these sort of activities - unlicensed gambling - in almost every country around the world. With just a little bit of evidence, maybe a bit of short stealth recording, it should be easy to present this to the police and get them arrested. They really do take advantage of people who are unfamiliar with card tricks and other games. Ironically it shows how addictive gambling can be, because they often allow you to win small amounts in the first one or two goes of the game, the wisest people would leave at this point, but then those sort of people would never be playing the game anyway so it takes care of itself from the conman's perspective.

But we know that not all people would really be that wise nor really be that aware about gambling and on the time that they would really go into a place and able to encounter such stuffs then this is where
people do easily get hook specially on the time that they would really be showing and letting them win on few tries.It is true that in every place there are really that these illegal doings or fraudsters on which they would really be taking some advantage into those who do have zero knowledge. This is why having that common sense would be your best weapon on which you would really be that able to sense
things that somethings off or not really that right. Come to mind that if those given games are really that easy to win up on your first tries then you should really be minding
on hows it possible? it cant really be just that some sort of rigged or making you believe that it is really just that easy.

That is a very good way of looking at the game when it is taken Into account how not to constantly have profits , this generates many things, first of all, we should not get excited about always having profits Because the casino is not an NGO Organization , so the players who They think like this when they play and see what happens to them, the opposite, instead of receiving Benefits they lose money , the emotional shock is very strong, this influences the Personality of each one and the way they have to face failures, and Since each brain is a world , it is when you see how it will React.

Yeah, very true that casinos aren't an NGO organization, but how can I really not be excited if and when I make some profit from my gambling activities?
The truth is, it does not matter whether the casino is an NGO organization or not, gamblers have the right to always be excited when ever the hit that jackpot, I mean I personally would be over joyed when ever luck finds me worthy of a good gift, reasons being that, what ever money I won from the casino, I probably have lost it on the same casino and another casino, and even if I have not lost such money before, it's highly possible that I might still loss it as long as I keep gambling - so every gambler have the full right to express their happiness every time they experience a great win.

Some countries ban gambling, which is not a big issue, but I read news online that police arrested a YouTuber just because his sponsor on a video is a gambling company. Gambling portrait as a crime in some third-world countries, but I think gambling is only a game and certain people play this game. If you play a game with all the responsibility and you lose, there is nothing a gambling company can do, so I believe it is a choice.

Care to cite your source? Tried looking up with the related keywords but all that came up were arrests that did NOT happen due to sponsors. Yes, gambling is illegal in some countries but I reckon some form of advertisement limited to telling people about the casino's name, and not gambling directly shouldn't be grounds for arrest.

It is indeed a game, a game that directly involves money, which causes a LOT of, well imo, non-existent problems really but for the others, major problems, maybe more on the ethical side of things.

[gunhell16]

I have not heard of source game before may be it's because of my region since street gambling is a ban and illegal in my jurisdiction,  but then we may have to open up ourselves to some further questions about whether or not it the greed that drives us into them instead of paying close attention we decide to risk taking chances.

Gambling is mostly ban in some area which is not practised except it is done without the awareness of the government or people knowing about it. Whatever results we get from gambling, we should be ready to admitting the result since we are not forced to go into gambling. Those that are making money from gambling are doing that because they are prepared for whatever outcome the get from it whether is for a lose or it's for s gain.

But that didn't deter many people, and they immediately stopped because some of them continued to gamble even though the officers had punished them.

What you said is true, it is still up to us to decide whether we will play gambling or not. That's why the good advice of others is useless if we don't follow it. Because everyone's mindset is different when it comes to gambling.

Just like there are countries where gambling is legalized like Casinos and in others it is illegal, the same for every individual person. But in reality, it's not good for children or minors, we know that. That's why there is other gambling that is made legal because it helps the charity program and at the same time the tax that it gives to the government.

It is indeed a grim reality that such fraudulent activities often target those with little to no understanding of the games or mechanics involved. The initial wins serve as a deceptive enticement, a proverbial 'siren call,' drawing unsuspecting individuals into a rigged game. While law enforcement indeed plays a critical role in curbing such activities, the onus falls upon individuals to equip themselves with knowledge. Knowledge is power, after all. By understanding the inherent risks and mechanics of these games, one can more effectively resist the allure of easy wins.

Moreover, fostering a societal dialogue about such schemes, much like we are doing here, can raise public awareness and dissuade potential victims from falling prey. In essence, shared knowledge becomes a collective defense. In the end, prevention remains the best cure, and awareness is the first step towards prevention.
