What Do You Think Of Variety Wholesome Show Incorporating Casino Games?

[coin-investor]

Why I created this thread: There is a popular TV noontime show that incorporates casino games like card games Hi and Low in their show, this game excites my friend who ended up playing in a local online casino because of the attraction in the card game that was introduced in the noon time show.

Do you think it is good that a show that children can watch incorporates games you can only see in casinos, it might end up introducing gambling to their audiences.

What's your opinion on this? I hope the name of the show, if you happen to know it, will not be mentioned, as the topic was created to be a general topic, not an attack on a particular show.

Note: I will lock this topic after 40 replies or 4 days after the topic was created or which comes first.

You said it is a game. Which means it is not gambling. No need to bring this topic if it is not about gambling because there are many games in casinos today that I can play with friends at home or at a friend home and enjoy without using the game to gamble.

I know the name of the show but will prefer not to mention it, I believe this is not a permanent segment of the show and will soon be replaced, but yes, many people are enjoying it including me, Since gambling is legal in that country, this is not something new, we have seen card games on many places and occasions.

If there are children watching, they should be guided by parents, the show is on parental guidance rating, so there's nothing alarming, What's alarming are the the prime time night shows where there's a lot of killing

Kids doesn’t have any idea what casino is and what’s the game inside of it unless the show involves money during their live performance of casino games then it’s the only time it will become a problem.

A simple card game or any casino games can’t be considered as bad or gambling if there’s no money involved. There’s a difference between adult and children audience on how they will take the show that’s why this kind of show rated PG in every country.

I completely see nothing wrong with a TV show incorporating games that can be played on a casino; into their show, as long as on the show, those who were or are shown playing that game, are not actually exchanging money for it, which is what gambling is.

As I was growing up as a kid, I watched a lot of TV game shows which I extremely enjoyed, many of such games is what we play on casino today, and while watching those shows as a kid, it never influenced me to want to gamble, in fact, I didn't even have any slight idea that such games can be played on some casinos to win money.
I grew up as an adult, and I can tell you categorically that what influence me much more to start gambling was promoting gambling casinos on this forum through my signature ad.

[Porfirii]

Although he said it is a game, I'm interpreting that he meant it is gambling.

In my country, TV channels aren't allowed to broadcast programmes or commercials about gambling before 01:00 AM. I don't know if that's the best approach, but I have gotten used to it and it is true that less vulnerable people is impacted by these ads being it so late. The bad thing is that from that hour on it is almost impossible to see anything else on free TV channels apart from gambling related content.

Well, first of all if the kids play a simple card games that does not involve money then it is not gambling. They are many offline and online card games that children play and it is perfectly fine.
By the way, if you say that a TV show or program has PG rating than it should not be seen by kids without parents involvement. I mean it is the duty of parents to tell children about casinos and the everything the children should know, so such shows aren't have bad impact on the mind of the children.

The problem is that what if these children are left alone at home and stumble into this show because it is not everybody that uses parental guidance control. It will be better that children don't watch such show since it can trigger them into gambling, especially nowadays that casinos ads are everywhere and influencers promoting casinos. Children might watch this show and decide to gamble with these card games. I am not going against the show but we should be careful of what we watch on TV when our kids are around do that it does not have a negative impact on them.

I think I agree with you. The least thing one would like to see is a child getting introduced to gambling because a show which is supposed to be suitable for all audiences. Because how widespread and common gambling has become on the internet, some children could see those games in the TV show, feel curious about it and search for them on the internet, ending up playing casino games. Granted, they may start playing those games with fake money but eventually could find a way to get an account on an actual online casino, not even mentioning that there are several casinos which allow people to register and deposit with little or no KYC process, those children and teens will only be stopped in the case of withdrawing.

You can see children playing dice, whot varieties and many other games that are in casinos today. If they are playing such games, that does not means that they are gambling. You can also see children that are playing football, table tennis and many sports that are very common in all countries but that does not means that they are on sportbooks and betting. This is not gambling or betting.

Participating in sports does not mean that you are gambling but there are still some football unprofessional players that gamble with the matches that they play, I have done this before in high school. Who also told you that assuming these professional footballers are not restricted from gambling that they will not gamble with the matches that they are involved. FIFA understands this and that was why there put the law. Playing cards can lead to one staking with cards because when he feels that he has known all the tricks in the game and how to win, he will have confidence to stake. Dice is the worst because I started gambling with dice rolling. It turns from game to gambling gradually.

Not that the popular TV noontime is advertising gambling sites or telling people to gamble. It is just about a game. I can be with friends and play Ludo for hours. We can play Chess that I have not seen on gambling sites before for over 5 hours because chess is addicting. I have not played roulette before but on gambling sites and no one thought me how to gamble with roulette because it is simple to understand. There are many games that are easy to understand. What I am trying to say is that because you are playing games with friends, that does not means you are gambling online. Also there are games that you will just know how to play because they are common in your environment. These games are also on gambling sites. Also there are some games that are online that you can know easily or through the demo or fun mode. If you want to gamble or bet, that did not have to do because you have knowledge about the game, it is because you just want to gamble. There are many games online that you do not have to learn before you can know how to use it to gamble. Examples are dice and roulette.

I think it's very dangerous if you talk about the potential impact that might occur and children will become vulnerable to gambling, games like that are certainly not good for children in my opinion because the problem will be very fatal, it may be true that there are some who are not affected but it is not impossible that of the many children who see it there are some children who want the game and or gambling.

Although he said it is a game, I'm interpreting that he meant it is gambling.

In my country, TV channels aren't allowed to broadcast programmes or commercials about gambling before 01:00 AM. I don't know if that's the best approach, but I have gotten used to it and it is true that less vulnerable people is impacted by these ads being it so late. The bad thing is that from that hour on it is almost impossible to see anything else on free TV channels apart from gambling related content.

That's pretty scary even though it's a fairly logical approach, I think there really needs to be some more consideration considering that at 1:00 am some children are still awake and want to watch TV, in my neighborhood it's also like that, not a few small children stay up in the middle of the night.

But fortunately gambling in my country is strictly prohibited to be broadcast, even on social media, especially about broadcasting gambling games on TV, it is strictly prohibited and the TV channel can be banned.

I find it problematic to introduce casino games such as Hi and Low card games into television programs that children can view. Although these games might be appealing and fun, infusing gambling components to an immature viewership can result in adverse effects. Young ones might lack a sophisticated appreciation of the perils associated with gambling and could easily be swayed into experimenting with wagering while still at tender ages.

The differentiation of content meant for pleasure and that which could stimulate negative conduct like gambling is significant. TV programs should be mindful of their influence on young audiences and opt for content that is informative and uplifting.

Typically, it is sensible for children-accessible TV shows not to integrate gambling features to prevent potential harmful habits later in life.

[robelneo]

Gambling in the country, where the show is being broadcast is legal; there are card games on parlour games and fiesta, so this is not new. If a person is inclined to gamble, he can be attracted to it and find a place to play games that attract him.
I watched the show almost every day, and it was a game of wit, strategy, and luck. The contestant is not betting anything, only his participation, so he is not really gambling. The show just wants to give money to the contestant in the tradition of If the price is right, so there is no illegal or bad on this. It's different if contestants are made to bet with their own money.

sometimes we underate the potential In children and assume they know nothing untill they open up and we get to know what they've known by mere observation. As much as I feel that depending on the age of the kids, some might outrightly not have the knowledge on certain gambling and even when the watch it on TV shows, they might not know what it is but the truth is that everything starts from a single point of almost zero knowledge. Some of them might not know a single thing about the show but once they have a first hand interaction with someone gambling, the image will flash back in Thier face and they will literally have a change of mindset towards the game.

Thier are certain things that shouldn't be allowed for the consumption of the general public and it's not just on the TV shows but I've seen back to back advert on my mobile Banking app that consistently tells me to stake games during the Euros via my mobile banking apps. Those kind of things are to be totally discouraged because someone that had to plan whatsoever of going into gambling can easily get lured into it and thier nothing worse that directly gambling from your mobile banking apps as it can easily lead you to become addicted. In summary, it's not just about gambling, the content our children watch in the TV have great effect on what they practice in real life so it's necessary that even as parents, we sensor some of those things.

Generally, I don't agree when games which can be played without betting is labeled as gambling games. There are traditional people who frown at card games because they consider them as gambling games. Some kids are asked to stay away from such games because they're more or less considered dirty games, games of money, which only adults can play.

This is the same with a simple high and low game which uses playing cards. There's nothing wrong with it. It's simply a game. It can be played purely for fun. It can be played without money involved. Everybody can enjoy that game, not just gamblers in casinos.

It's the same game that we have seen in arcade, games that we thought are just for kids and for entertainment only, but they have found it's way to the casinos as well. For me, it's a subtle way to really introduce gambling to the public specially for our children. At first look it could be very harmless, but when our children see in the malls or in the arcade, it could have somewhat unknowingly putting in their mind that it is ok to play this kind of games specially if it involves money.

And then when they grow up, again not saying that our children are going to be addicted or what. But if we are being programmed in the young age, sooner or later, they might go and play. For us parents though, it's our responsibility recognize these risks, and educate our children.

[lovesmayfamilis]

To protect children from content shown on television and the Internet, you need to get rid of all such gadgets. But who, tell me, will do this in our time? There is a lot of other harmful information that children's minds see as soon as they begin to distinguish speech, so I do not think that such a show can harm children; in extreme cases, there is always the opportunity to distract the child with another activity.

The most likely thing is that shows and other similar industries have probably already implemented their own restrictions when it comes to certain topics. Now if they let it go, it means that either A, it's actually ok content, B, they had a rated age warning at the start, which is a parent's responsibility now, or C, it's not really considered gambling at all, and people are just overreacting. There's only so much companies can do to restrict gambling related content while allowing it, since the next step from there is probably just outright banning it which a lot of companies are probably not willing to since it's, well, profit.

And honestly, if it's simple games like Hi/Low it's probably simple enough to not consider it as a gambling game. Probably in these cases as long as it isn't outright a "gambling scene", then it'd pass reviews.
