Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble?

[ethereumhunter]

From my understanding I don't think there's any law that restricts an individual that's 18+ from gambling, that's an  adult age and in must countries individual that's fall in that category are allowed to make their own choices, but I heard that their are some countries where the gambling age is 21 and above an not 18 which is the adult age though I'm not very sure about that statement, but in general the gambling age for most casinos and betting sites is 18+

 As a parent it's your duty to guild your child till they become adults and start making their own decisions however they still need advise on certain decisions that could ruin them if not properly looked into and gambling is one of them, cause it has lots of disadvantage as well, like addiction, emotional trauma and the rest of them. But with proper advise to them, they could learn from it and try to make the right decisions.

Maybe in each countries have the difference of allowing someone to playing gambling, including what age they can playing gambling. That will be different from one to another country but if we see what is written on the casino, the allowance of people to playing gambling is above 18+ so they who is under 18 can't playing gambling. Although they can still playing gambling without anyone knows, especially if the casino doesn't have strictly rules. That will gives an easiness for people who under 18 to playing gambling and they will not have a problem until the casino asks them to fills verification.

Yes, parents jobs is guides their children not to make a wrong decision, especially if parents found their children playing gambling in their room. Parents must explains what impacts gambling to their lives and what will happens to them in the future. Parents can gives many examples to their children just to show how dangerous gambling for them, especially if their children doesn't have self control.

Does gambling needs experience or anyone +18, even the inexperienced one can also play? Though playing gamble has a limited age grade or age bracket and the accepted is from  +18 years and there are some casinos hall at the door post, it is written clearly that it is only people of +18 can play. But what about the inexperienced ones, are they allowed to play gamble as well? Or they are also restricted to have the fun? In my observation, there are two elements to participate in gambling. One, you must above 18 years in my country and secondly you must have an experience to play, so I want to know if inexperienced people can also play gamble.

Here in our country, many minors already play gambling, whether offline or online. Especially in this day and age when the internet is a necessity and the internet is rampant on any
social media platform,.

Many people are addicted to online casinos today because of the heartless local influencers in our country who can only promote gambling and say that there is no loss when they gamble
using the referral link in their descriptions, and many lives have been ruined. Actually.

I agree with you it's easy to understand teenagers when it comes to offline but no one can understand 18 years here because of the rise in popularity of online gambling. Along with the elderly teenagers are also betting through the game. Gambling is very harmful even though they have experience through these small games they become addicted to gambling and this addiction leads to destruction of life which causes problems in growing them well.

Yeah, every country have their own rules and regulations concerning gambling but the general age for gambling is plus 18 like you stated. Well everything that's got an advantage also have disadvantages and what you've said is one of the disadvantage of online casino, cause it allows individuals that are below 18 to gamble without being penalised or noticed by the casinos, well I know that some online casinos have implemented kyc to fish out defaulters. But then how about those that doesn't require kyc.

 Now this is the more reason why every online casino needs to implement the kyc policy on or after sign up due to situations like this, I bet that if they decide to implement a kyc policy for every online casino, one would be shocked at the number of under 18's that are gambling currently. But my question is, is their any punishment for under 18's who go against the gambling rules and hide online to gamble?

Those who are above 18 years are adult enough and capable of a potential thought and have a source of income so they can enjoy gambling with their income. and that is why they are not interested in spending extra money on gambling.  Because they know how hard it is to earn money. And those under 18 and considered minors use their parents' money when they go gambling. and that's why they have no love for money. and the addiction to gambling can destroy them.

When a person is eighteen years old or more than eighteen years old are free to gamble if the person has money to gamble and there is no restriction on gambling from their country. As many countries are restricted to gambling the people in this country can't gamble though they are 18 or more than 18 years old.

Now the person is 18 years or above and he has money so if he wants he can gamble and nobody can restrict him because has he passed the age both in physical stature and finance. But what about the experience will he play the gamble if there is no experience to participate? Because if he does he might lose everything to gamble since he is an inexperienced person. And those inexperienced ones are the people lose funds to the Casinos and still ask the casino to refund the lose funds to them or cry in the casino centers. So do we allowed inexperienced people to gamble?

Yes, in most countries you are a fully responsible adult once you turn 18.

It is not perfect of course, but the line must be drawn at some point, and 18 years old usually are finishing school, so it makes sense to make them responsible of their own actions.

I would argue many people are still kids inside after 18 though.

It's indeed difficult to watch or supervise those who comes to the casino because casino doesn't knows how old their customers. They will knows who are their customers after their customers doing KYC but that doesn't guarantee casino will knows the truth because those who under 18+ can still use the adult people identity to verify their account. That will helps them to pass the verification because they can also asks for helps from adult people to verify their account. It needs supervise from every parents to knows what their children do so there will be no violations commit from their children.

The casino has already implement the KYC policy and many people knows about that. But if the customers must verify after sign up, maybe not many people will wants to do that because some people use online casino for playing gambling in their spare time. They will thinks that they don't have to do KYC as they don't use too much money to playing gambling. But for other people who use more money to playing gambling, they will be asks to do KYC. There are no punishment for under 18's who go against the gambling rules because no one will knows if they are playing online gambling games or doing the other activities. It's a difficult job for every parents to make sure their children not playing gambling secretly.

Gambling definitely requires experience but inexperienced people can also play, in which case the risk of losing is very high. Even though my country has a ban on gambling for people under 18, I have seen more boys and girls under 18 taking part in gambling. Even though they have no experience, they are making themselves victims by gambling. Most of them seem to take up gambling without gaining experience, maybe by participating in gambling they win bets some time and later become more interested and thus they become addicted to gambling very quickly. Although there is a ban on gambling below 18 years of age, this law is not very effective in my country, if this law is not enforced by the government, it will never give good results. Life is completely destroyed.

You know, driving a car also require experience. And I would say that those 10-20 hours that student rides with instructor is not even close to being a good driver. During that period, student barely faces any unforeseen situations. A car is like a weapon in unexperienced persons hands. But, in some countries it is allowed to drive a car when you a person is younger than 18. I just put it on a scale and scales dont find any balance. A 18 yo gambler can spoil his own life, and perhaps life of his relatives. A 16 yo driver can spoil many lives in just few seconds.

And those inexperienced ones are the people lose funds to the Casinos and still ask the casino to refund the lose funds to them or cry in the casino centers. So do we allowed inexperienced people to gamble?

But your topic question is whether someone who is 18+ is allowed to gamble or not, not someone who is inexperienced is allowed to gamble or not, in my opinion it is legal if they have the money to gamble, the most important thing for them is to understand how gambling works by exploring the risks first what he will take, someone who is 18+ and already has an ID card and already has a job, they are free to gamble or not, that is their right, but if they are still in school or still in college and using their family's money, that is a stupid act, not not allowed but also have to think that the money earn from parents is not a good idea to use for gambling.

People who have no experience in gambling really need to be taught first, for example if they experience losses in gambling, this can be used as an evaluation to be more careful in betting and not just anyone who is experienced will have experienced something like this before they learn to become better. So if they feel regretful and stupid as a result of gambling, this is common for people who cannot accept defeat and do not understand the risks of gambling.

in crypto gambling usually does not require KYC. so you want any age there is no problem gambling. but if for a stake there is KYC but even then the KYC is not too strict or easy KYC.

Who said you don’t require KYC? Yes, for some limits the crypto casinos don’t ask for KYC, but after a certain amount is reached, they need to do the KYC, in order to see that the source funds are bought in a legal way and no case of money laundering is involved. On the other hand 18+ are only allowed because, this proves that you have strong decision making power and you are agreeing to bet your own money.

In my opinion, one of the reasons 18 years old is referred to as someone who has entered adulthood is because as you said, they have finished their schooling but that doesn't mean they are someone who can be responsible and also we cannot conclude that a child is already old. When they are 18 years old, they can think carefully when considering something, because after all there are still quite a lot of factors that can influence and make them become someone who doesn't have good responsibilities, such as perhaps in terms of the environment or the personality they were born with.

The proof is that we can see that it is not uncommon to find people over 20 years old who cannot become responsible gamblers, meaning that 18 years old is only the "predicted" age that someone can be responsible and is not a certainty that someone can become a responsible person.

In my country there are no restrictions if you want to gamble from the age of 18, even if you don't have any previous experience. It wouldn't make sense otherwise. What would you have to do? Practical classes like when you take your car test? It doesn't make sense.

[adpinbr]

Yes, gambling is really eating and above but so many people also have their experience I agree with you and they still take the ricks even if they are not up to eating well I see it that as long as you know the right thing to do you can gamble, despite the age grade, we are just interested it’s good because 18 is when you are fully in control of yourself. At least your parents can talk to you but they don’t have full control over you anymore. You can do something you want but it doesn’t mean you are 100% maturing enough but it’s not a problem anyone can gamble to me as long as your Apple 15.

The legal age to gamble can be over 16/18/21 or whatever is enough for someone to gamble either in an online casino or by visiting a physical world casino cause adults are supposed to decide what they need to do and there is no point in asking for the experience if someone wants to start something new cause everyone has to start from zero at some point.

While registering on an online platform you will be asked about your age or it will be mentioned in the ToS.

[348Judah]

We cannot term anyone who is 18 years and above as an underaged for gambling, with such age range, they would have been having one or two means of earning money to make a living, with this, they can also decided on what they want to use their money for, while above all, this is also subjected to the government law in that particular country they belong, if the government make law against gambling within thst age limit or not.

In all countries and also gambling plates today, of course, the age of 18 years is the age limit for someone to gamble, but can it make teenagers avoid gambling so far?
I don't think so, because at this time I think many of the gamblers are underage because indeed they can trick the site by using fake identification cards to create an account on a gambling site, besides that when we open a gambling site and we are told to confirm our age, wouldn't we also mention above 18 years even though it is actually not, just for the sake of being able to access the gambling site page,  I think Tos and whatever it is that is required as a condition of gambling over the age of 18 will certainly not apply to those who are interested in gambling all this time even if they are under 18 years old.

I think gambling platforms only make Tos as one of the provisions that apply as a formal requirement and of course they also don't care who plays gambling whether they are over 18 years old or not because they certainly cannot control anyone who really wants to gamble and access the platform, so far parents should be the main supervisors for children to avoid gambling.

The age and form of gambling depends on the nation you live on. Some enforce total ban of all form of gambling for all age groups. For some nations, it's 21+ while some don't have a age limit for some form of gambling. Law are just one expect, there are other things to consider like your economic situation, your mental health and your religion or culture. If you feel you are fit to gamble, you should still learn how things can go bad or how people ruin their life with gambling.
Experience is not a big deal if you have a financial plan and general theoretical knowledge of how it works. Self experience would make you learn more.

Experience does really matter and speaking about legality and other correlated issues or conditions then it would really be just that depending on this one because each country would be having their different approach
towards gambling. When it comes to legal age then it would really be playing 18-21 years old. Doesnt matter what age but still stopping someone to play is something that cant be sure because in todays
tech and interenet we do have on which accessing out these platforms wont really be that much of an issue or something that a problem. This is why even if these bans would really be applied then these individuals would really be that tending to deal or make engagement without being caught and this is something that cant be stopped or something inevitable.

This is why we are really that still seeing that there are individuals who do get still addicted despite of the ban and prohibition but still there were people who do become that addicted
to gambling because they dont being caught.

When a person is eighteen years old or more than eighteen years old are free to gamble if the person has money to gamble and there is no restriction on gambling from their country. As many countries are restricted to gambling the people in this country can't gamble though they are 18 or more than 18 years old.

Do you mean gambling is totally banned in the country you are from? Even if you are off-age, you won't still be allowed to gamble in any of the online casinos. If yes, does that mean you guys don't have a single casino or gambling shop in the entire country? 
 
As long as you have the money to gamble with and are up to the required age (18), you are free to gamble as long as you don't steal the money and you don't gamble in an unlicensed place like the side WHOT game. Gambling is usually carried out by groups of violent people most of the time.

In a situation where gambling is prohibited in a country, the best thing is to avoid gambling in public where people will notice that you are gambling. This is what I do then I was 17yrs, I and my friends started gambling early, so we always gamble in secrets with poker and dice. We gamble in a way that someone who is a neutral person holds the funds that we use to bet, and after the bet is over. The person acting as an escrow will be rewarded with a little amount from the winner.
