Online Gambling: Modern entertainment or highly addictive game?

Online gambling and traditional gambling, both of which have nothing else, only for the purpose of multiplying money, in reality those who gamble at both casinos experience losses and defeats.

For this reason, every person who visits a casino has its own impression and experience in terms of entertainment and fun, that is a fact, where online casinos often make people addicted, but not from fun, on the contrary, we often see traditional casinos that visit them because they have a fun nature, but not many are addicted.

In essence, if we look at the two effects of gambling, there are addictive and enjoyable effects, but online and traditional are two different effects, but the goal is the same.

[Porfirii]

It seems to depend more on each individual. whether traditional or online casinos, if someone cannot limit themselves when playing, it will certainly lead to excessive addiction.

In, for the most part no. There is individual variability, as with everything, but the ease of being able to bet instantly when you have a single thought and constantly is potentially much more problematic than traditional gambling, where if you have a thought of betting first you have to travel to a casino. Also the fact that you can take loans online almost instantaneously does not help, although this can fuel gambling binge gambling as much online as if you go to a land-based casino.

You are right Don Pedro, physical distance is definitely a barrier, and the capacity to gamble on the go, everywhere, at any time, from your smartphone, isn't the best aid for someone with a problem of addiction, even if it is also true that these people will also overcome other barriers to gamble in land-based casinos.

We as adults must be aware of the risks and responsible of our acts, but also humble, and look for help as soon as we detect a dangerous pattern in our behavior.

Online casinos are very addictive and players should be aware of it, because when you're playing online you are more focused because you are playing alone against the platform, compared to traditional platforms where you are compelled to stop because there are people around you and you don't want to look like big losers in their eyes.

It seems to depend more on each individual. whether traditional or online casinos, if someone cannot limit themselves when playing, it will certainly lead to excessive addiction.

In fact, online casinos are not between us and the platform, but just like traditional ones, we still play with other gamblers, but the place is where we can be free anywhere without having to meet our opponents directly.

The games on the casino makes players comes over and over without thinks about what will happens to them if they can't stops themselves from playing gambling. It happens to many people but that's not stops people from coming to the casino because they tempts from what they see from other people who can wins from gambling. But if someone can hold himself from return to the casino because he knows that can makes him addicted to gambling, he will not return to casino too often. He will limits himself from playing gambling and will prevents himself from the addiction because he knows that can gives him many troubles. Casino online gives many gambling games but we knows when we can playing gambling so we don't use much time to playing gambling to prevents the addiction. Online casino is a modern entertainment and it's our jobs to treat online casino as an entertainment and not lets ourselves becomes addicted to gambling.

     -   As the title says, modern entertainment and highly addictive games. It is only in these two that a gambler can fail. This is about online gambling, so the only sad thing is that most people
are addicted to online gambling.

What makes it even worse when it is promoted on social media platforms such as Facebook is that even minors see the gambling ads, which for me is not a good way or platform for children
who are not yet fully mature to see them.

[harapan]

For me it is both of it, gambling would and has always been a form of entertainment for some of us, and making it online is an easy access for us we could gamble anywhere and anytime we want.
And it is true that it is highly addictive game, specially for those who are eager to have an easy money or profit.

Clearly yes without doubt gambling whereas online gambling is a mode of entertainment and a simultaneously addictive game and the priveledge to have access to online betting, casinos games have made it a lot easier and better for gamblers to penetrate their way to big wins.To me I prefer online games rather than land base cause I'm at liberty to freestyle what I want but that doesn't make me addicted you know.

Besides, online gambling games do not require one person to observe the other, so they become very simple. Players seem to be absorbed in the virtual world and forget about the people around them, the games continue one after another, so they are more likely to become addicted to games on the screen. What is online gambling in your personal opinion? Are your feelings different from when you play traditional gambling? Does it affect your gambling habits when you play online? Please share your experiences here.

I don't think that things are so bad with online gambling and the majority of gamblers is not becoming addicted to online gambling. While online gambling might be a new form of entertainment for many people, the whole concept of virtual entertainment is not new at all. Ever since the rise of the internet so has the gaming industry and is developing new blockbuster games every year. Among my friends everybody has spent some time as a teenager gaming on their PC or console. So, sitting alone in your room and looking at the screen is nothing new. None of my friends became addicted to gaming and are also now not addicted to gambling. The only new thing is that now is real money involved in the games.

[Solosanz]

This is sad reality and I don't know how those people can sleep at night knowing that they put other people in this kind of circumstances. That they know is bad. This is not an attack but only my personal opinion. Many influencers really advertise even the widespread scams, and sadly still many people are falling for it because of one, entertainment, and second the fun making easy money and get rich quick.

Most people who're addicted to gambling are no brainers, since they have no brain, they can sleep well since they have nothing to think. They believe there's always a way to get money to gamble and gamble to recover their past losses.

People who have brain won't become addicts in the first place because they always think about the future.

So true. I don't like it when those social media streamers add gambling advertisements in the last part of their videos. Whenever I see one, I unfollow them. Why? Simply because my kid is using the same phone that I use and sometimes he is browsing my page just looking for his own videos that I uploaded. I am just avoiding the chance that he might bump into them and his innocence about gambling will be gone. Also, I try to tell my eldest kid to avoid such streamers even though their videos are a bit funny because of their gambling advertisements too.
This is a highly addictive habit and I don't want them to become one. Modern entertainment if you are old enough to be responsible at what you do because gambling ain't a joke, we are risking our money here and those who ain't got a job to feed their bad habit should stay away from it.

[danadc]

I think both are correct options, it is a modern entertainment, in fact there is no doubt, but it can also become an addiction without a doubt, people who are playing all the time must be very careful when operating in casinos because It is very easy to fall into addiction, whether in an online casino or in an offline casino, what matters here is that the entertainment can be enjoyed from home in peace, with a good internet connection, that is enough to be well. in the game,

I will always say something, when we are looking for fun on the internet there is a lot, but casinos are entertainment that for some people can be very dangerous because they spend a lot of money, then these things must stop so as not to be bad with oneself, well it's my penamsinto, enjoying is fine, but wisely.

[moneystery]

it's both, it could cause addiction and also entertainment for players. gambling can become an addiction because players gamble irresponsibly and uncontrollably. they ignore the dangers of addiction from gambling, and think that this is normal in order to pursue their winnings. whereas on the contrary, if they gamble responsibly and within their limits, it will allow them to enjoy gambling and make it an entertainment to improve their mood or relieve boredom.

[coolcoinz]

I could argue that it mainly depends on the type of games that you play.

Let's imagine for a moment that you bet on matches that you watch, like me. I watch maybe 2 or 3 a month, mainly on the weekends, but sometimes less. Betting on them provides more fun, makes the experience more entertaining, while being so rare that you can't call me an addict.

Bottom line, it depends on how frequently you play, what type of a person you are. Someone who's easily addicted will lose all money on scratch cards, while a strong gambler will play poker for years without any signs of addiction.

This will reflect how responsible you are when it comes to gambling and seriously, any game can cause addiction and it will always depend on how you are going to deal with it. There are times that playing multiple time can cause addiction while its also possible even if you rarely place a bet, so anything can happen in gambling in an instant without realizing it. If you want to have more fun then make sure you gamble responsibly.

[Betwrong]

There is no other point of view about online gambling for me. It is as-is, whatever is the word is then that's it. As gambling, there's the entertaining part of it but also the addictive side which is when you're able to win some money, you'll never stop.

That could be understandable, but there cases, and there are many of them, when people can't stop after losing money. They think the fates can't be against then all the time, and so they should win after a losing streak. I want to tell those people, "Guys, you are absolutely right, your destiny can't be always against you, but 100 times in a row it can. And that would be enough for you to lose everything."

All in all, gambling is a modern entertainment, but the risk of addiction is always there.

I also agree that a player depends on his frequency of play, he cannot be playing every day at all hours, I would say that a good player should play at least 1 or 2 times a week, of course it also depends on the amount of money that you have to spend, because to enter a casino it is better to forget About the money that you will have in the casino because it is money that is clearly very likely to be lost, except for those who manage to multiply it more than that, which gives me a lot of joy, even if the others win that makes me happy, so in the face of these things we have to see that the best thing that happens here is that they are considered good players and not lose control by playing from time to time and not seeing the game as a necessity, thus avoiding falling into addictions that will bring us Problems in our lives.

All in all, gambling is a modern entertainment, but the risk of addiction is always there.

Let us put it this way, every activity is prone to addiction and gambling is no exception. Especially this activity involves money and we are just humans, where money is usually the source of change of behaviour of an individual. It may be entertaining in the beginning but as the player is getting too deep in this activity, he can easily go to the route of addiction.

This will reflect how responsible you are when it comes to gambling and seriously, any game can cause addiction and it will always depend on how you are going to deal with it. There are times that playing multiple time can cause addiction while its also possible even if you rarely place a bet, so anything can happen in gambling in an instant without realizing it. If you want to have more fun then make sure you gamble responsibly.

If you are determined to play responsibly, you will always have allocated budget to burn on this activity. And you will stick to this budget no matter what. Though you can go beyond from time to time, but you will always know to what extent you can go beyond your limit and you are clear with your intentions with your gambling habit.

With the convenience provided by online gambling, we can play it anytime and anywhere. Online gambling can indeed make someone very addicted.

Where I live, gambling is an illegal activity and is often considered a negative activity, so it is very rare to do offline gambling, gathering in a certain place to play card gambling. I very rarely do they do that. But when it comes to online gambling, especially young people, many people are involved in this activity. And it is even impossible that today young people are not familiar with online gambling. Online gambling is like mushrooms spreading everywhere and many people are trapped in this activity. In fact, my country is one of the countries with the largest number of online gamblers in the world.

[Fortify]

The proliferation of online gambling in recent years has opened a new era for the gambling industry. According to statistics, there are about 800 companies in the world, with servers in 70 different countries providing more than 4,000 virtual slot machines, 600 virtual casino points, 300 bingo sites, 260 sports betting sites and 240 online poker points. With gambling increasingly legalized in many countries, this can be considered a modern entertainment game.

This is the day the game industry attracts many workers (directly or indirectly) and generates a large amount of revenue. With the legalization of some online gambling, the number of players has also increased significantly. And this is considered a quite popular recreational game in some countries.

Besides the positive factors, this modern form of entertainment is showing a higher addictive potential than traditional gambling. Many witnesses of online gambling addiction said they had completely lost control of their mind and were driven by an irrepressible desire. It is easy to access the game at any time and the gap between real money and virtual money on the computer is quite large. Players are easily fooled by the numbers on the screen. They do not have the feeling of winning or losing money compared to when holding real money, so players feel like this is just a game.

Gambling has been around since the beginning of time, both people taking a risk that they might get a shortcut to wealth and also people offering odds that they know over the long term will bring in more money than they lose. Online gambling does make the whole process much faster and will empty out your wallet without even leaving your own home, but besides that the fundamentals are very much the same. It does have access to a much wider audience, compared to say in the 1980's where most Americans might have to travel all the way to Las Vegas in order to fulfill their desires. It definitely can be a source of entertainment for some people, as long as they keep the play casual.

Yes, the comfort and the accessibility and the availability of these things are the main reason on why tons of people do really make out engagement into it because its something that you could really be able to play up or deal with it in a matter of few clicks or simply having no hassle. There are people who are really that seeing for gambling to be interesting and there are people who do find this to be that great and easy
and this do really sparks out their interest on playing gambling while there are those people who doesnt really care.It would really be just that depending into someones interest because if you are really that
interested on playing gambling then you would really be definitely be doing it.Just like me on which no matter how i could easily access these things but still i do find out not to be interested because
losing money is never been that included into my interest.

It comes down to individual behavior, even in physical casinos you will also likely to be addicted because the physical casinos have a way of making you stay for hours even days, and they have their way for you to spend more.

This is what gambling platforms do best whether online or offline, so if you think there are many losses and become addicted to online casinos, physical casinos also have a share of that.

If you have a weak character and your goal in gambling is to make money you are likely to be a candidate to become addicted whether you're playing online or offline.

Yeah
Inasmuch as online gambling has made things a lot more convenient and accessible for gamblers, it has also increased the chances of addiction because people can now access gambling anywhere and anytime, even in the comfort of their home, which means more gambling for them, and when most people gamble more, it means more chances of getting addicted.

It's very essential for gambler's to know that regardless the accessibility of gambling, there's every need for responsible gambling, they should abuse the accessibility that comes with online gambling and then let it work to their own disadvantages, that way, gambling will no longer carry out its main purpose, which is to provide fun and recreation for you, rather than this, it becomes destructive as it can take the best of you and could also ruin your life.

The best way to approach gambling is to maintain a good standard and always play responsibly, without letting the addictive aspect of gambling get through to you, rather than allowing gambling to be a source od pain and regret, it should be something you do for fun, like going out to play golf, tennis or going for skiing and other stuffs, that way, whether you lose or win, you must've still had your loads of fun.
