Is Gambling a scam

[Muba20]

Hi guys let have your view on this questions because only real gamblers will understand what I mean?
Is Gambling with your hard earned money Worth it because I have come to the conclusion that gambling is a scam

Mmmm I'm entirely speechless to this but then I needed to say this, gambling isn't scam but a medium of entertainment and fun but the issues of scammers is originated from casinos that may seem legit but end up scamming people of their money, so get it straight, the fact that you use your hard earned money to gamble doesn't mean gambling is scam.

How can I call gambling a scam? Doesn't it give people money after winning? If they win, does it show the gambler as a loser? Some may keep losing their bets because of which they may think gambling is a scam but in reality there is no point in calling it a scam. If a gambling site does not give a gambler a win, it is the particular gambling site's fault. That gambling site may be a scam. The site can be blamed but there is no point in blaming about gambling. I think the OP called gambling a scam where correction should be made. There are wins and losses in gambling, there are many people who have lost all their money and there are many who have won big. This is a very common picture and there is no basis for accusing gambling of being a scam.

Actually, if we understand the basic context of gambling, of course we can say that gambling is not a scam, because basically gambling activities are betting using money that has the potential to win or lose, but some people actually consider gambling as a scam after they cannot accept their defeat and finally look for reasons to cover up their defeat, In addition, those who play in scam casinos and lose money, actually become an excuse to say that gambling is a scam, even though the context between casinos and gambling has a different meaning and they equate it by calling gambling a scam, when in fact they are actually deceived by casinos and not by the gambling they play .

Gambling is not a scam, but a game that you can play at your leisure time for fun , it's also being used for entertainment, in gambling  you have an idea of what you are going to achieve or the outcome of the game,either winning or losing. Some of the gambling sites are controlled by some government agencies . When you say scam, it means that all your result will be is to win big, you will never lose, it can only be a scam, if you see it that way.

actually gambling is a scam, it's because our different thinking that made some of us to see gambling as a scam, another thing is that gambling can be a scam depends on the platform you involved yourself, but in normal gambling is not a scam, I will agree with you that when you gamble at your convenient you gamble, it's an entertainment and such kind of gambling people who is participating on it doest need any profit from gambling, because they gambled what they can afford to lose, so in gambling we have to understand that gambling has to do with what you have in mind to participate, theirs people who like gambling without having the intention of winning or losing and they do that have joy within among themselves, I have before that people gamble due to they have in mind to gamble.

It is very important for gamblers to control their emotions and control themselves. Otherwise, gambling will seem like a scam to us. If we cannot control ourselves, we will easily lose a lot of money in gambling. There is a possibility of winning money in gambling, but the possibility of losing money is more if we are not experienced enough. We must follow some rules. If we become addicted to gambling, we will definitely keep losing money unless we are very lucky.

Yes, but it is important to note that when that happens to a player, his first thought is to say that the game is a scam, when it is not, it is simply a self-defense logic that the player uses to Get rid of how badly he has played, but in general terms it is important to say that the game is not a scam , that it must be understood that the game in the Casino obeys the Universal rules which is the house advantage, that no one can be above this and apart from that it must be Understood that it must be understood what it is about.

You are right, in a general sense, a gambler should know that gambling is not a scam because the reality of it is that losses are usually more, compare to the winning streak that a gambler can get. For example, sometimes when am playing some casino games, i could be winning and feeling happy but just a matter of time, the casino will make me to loss all the money I have won and at that point, most of the time, I would just say, "mehn...this guys are thieves." It's just a verbal statement but I don't mean it, because I already know how things works.

In Indonesia, there is a former Thai casino dealer and owner who has quit. He explained that the casino is designed to always profit. Gamblers can profit if the casino gives someone the opportunity to win or become a bookie. In addition, online gambling and online fraud practices often have the same network. Sometimes someone does not realize that he has downloaded and accidentally gambles.

What do you mean by the word equivalent here? It means that it is clear that from the beginning in general everyone must gamble with money from their hard work, you yourself decide to gamble and there is no coercion or even threats from anyone including the casino that tells you to get involved in gambling, so of course it doesn't make sense if you think that the casino has cheated you just because you experience a loss with a possibly quite large amount. On the other hand, I am honestly sure that you will never think that you have been cheated by the casino if for example you managed to win, meaning that the assumption of fraud actually comes from within you because you feel disappointed and emotional because you lost while on the other hand it is clear from the beginning that defeat is part of the consequences when you are involved in this activity.

Of course, this causes bad emotions, moreover, gambling can leave a player without money, who has been saving it for years, but the player himself is responsible for this, so there is no need to look for someone to blame except yourself. Other feelings arise, such as anger, so I am not surprised that after losing, players can write on the Internet that the casino is terrible and other things that did not actually happen to him, just to denigrate him. This is something like a protective reaction of the body to the stress of losing.

The conclusion can probably be said that it is a loser or cowardly mentality where they only want to win but are not ready to lose while on the other hand it is clear that from the beginning gambling is an activity about winning and losing and there is no way or strategy that can guarantee that you will win at the end of the game, so defeat should be a result that is considered natural and gamblers should not be emotional when they experience defeat because all gamblers also experience the same thing but maybe with different times and amounts.

On the other hand, as you said, gamblers are responsible for whatever happens to them because from the beginning they are the ones who make the decision to get involved in gambling and they also determine how much bet they will place, so in conclusion this is the reason why understanding and knowledge are the main things that someone must have when they want to get involved in any activity because with this, in my opinion they should not accuse other parties, especially casinos, just because they experience something natural like defeat.

All of the gambling platform can not be SCAM in the same time, if we can say that, a specific gambling platform can SCAM if they don’t want to pay/withdraw your money, if they suspended your channel when you big win, these is Scamy activities. But also that is true, some SCAM gambling sites stolen their users money, i heard such many accusation thread in the forum.

Gambling is not inherently a scam, but it can certainly be a risky activity with the potential for scams.

At its core, gambling involves risking money or valuables on an event with an uncertain outcome. The odds are often stacked against the player, meaning the house has a statistical advantage. This doesn't make it a scam, but it does mean losses are more likely than wins in the long run.

For many, gambling is a form of entertainment. The thrill of the risk and the potential for reward can be exciting. However, it's crucial to gamble responsibly and within your means.

That's right, I heard some of their stories when they were invited on a podcast or something. They tell everyone exactly as you say, that gambling is designed to always benefit the bookie. This may not be the case with all online casinos, but such types of fraud do exist in casinos whose licenses are unclear. There are many casinos like that circulating in Indonesia, unfortunately many gamblers are not aware of it.

Some gambling sites scam their users of what they have put into the gambling platform to play and also their winning with reasons which do not even make sense, but that’s not the case here, the op is referring to gambling as being scam because he don’t get what he expected from gambling which made him believe that the system is not fair and everything is all scam, which are the thought of those who put so much in gambling and later get disappointed because their demand is not meet.

It's important that you know how to react to whatever outcome happened, most of the gamblers who point thier fingers and blaming someone else are those who can't handle the pressure, especially when the amount that they stake is large that they can't afford to let go, they think that they've been scam by the casino.

It's tough to realize that whatever action you take, it's your sole responsibilities and no one else should be blame from your action, is your decision and it's your money to take care.

Anyone that actually thinks that gambling is a complete scam because of their losing streak in gambling, then the person doesn't have a idea of what gambling really mean, there the person should quite gambling. Gambling is an activity which losses are inevitable and the losses are usually more compare to winning. The casinos and bookies have a house edge that puts them at the top of making more profit than the gambler.

Yes, I agree with this.

A scam is something that promises one thing but falsely gives you another.

Casinos run with probabilities, and they are very clear about it.

If you actually calculate the odds, you will know that the casino has an advantage. It's all there in the math, it's not a scam.

While it is not always scam it is very important to know about risks and possibility of scams. Chances of winning are mostly lower than chances of losing especially in long run. However for many people gambling is way to have fun and get excited. To gamble safely it is very important to be responsible set limits and never bet more money than you can afford to lose. If people are aware of these risks and gamble responsibly they can reduce bad things that can happen because of gambling.

The increasing number of online casinos operating allows some casinos to have bad intentions such as fraud, therefore I agree with what you said it is quite important to know about the risks and possibilities of fraud we must be more careful when switching to a new casino that we visit because we ourselves will determine in choosing a casino so must be smart in choosing a casino.

I myself do not understand why they say gambling is a fraud, even if it is because the victory that they say is easy to get and in reality they should not be able to think that this is a natural thing because the purpose of the casino is to seek profit, so it is not natural that many people view gambling as a fraud.

Oh, yes, now there are plenty of fake casino sites that are very difficult to distinguish from real ones. People do not even notice some distinctive details. For example, it could be another letter in the name or something else. This happens constantly and almost daily. If you visit forums dedicated specifically to casino games, there are a lot of similar stories.

Yes, the casino has a small payout ratio so that people understand that there are those who do win. It's part of the business. It's all quite simpler than it seems.

When someone can playing gambling responsible, he doesn't have to worry if something bad happen to him because he will be ready with that. That is why he only need to use enough money according to his allocation money to playing gambling and never break his rules because that is too important for him. That is why many things that we must learn to stay away from many problems that can occurs from gambling after we ends our gambling time. With responsibility in gambling, we will know the limit how much money we can use and how long we can stay in the gambling games. We don't want to get big lose or getting scan with a big money so we only risk some small money that we can afford to loss.

[nara1892]

Basically, in my opinion, rationally gambling can only be said or claimed as fraud only when the casino does not pay the winnings you get or only when the casino fails the deposit process you made while the money you have deposited does not return to your account, but if for example the problem is outside of those two things and for example the problem lies in the results at the end of the game, for example you lose, then I think it is very unreasonable to assume that the casino has cheated you because after all, losing is part of the game. On the other hand, this is the reason why an understanding of the concept of winning and losing in gambling must be possessed by a gambler, because then I think a gambler should not claim that they were cheated by the casino just because they lost.

Casinos and bookmakers are not forcing, or even trying to coerce anyone into parting with their money. They make enough from people who understand the risks and are willing to trade their money for a bit of fun. Scams are entirely manipulative and criminal in their intent, yet the vast majority of gambling centers are fully licensed and operating in jurisdictions with strong laws. You have to be willfully ignorant and blind in order to associate these businesses with scams. People know they will lose money yet think they are smart or lucky enough to beat the odds, they are not - so get angry when they lose and claim the casinos scam them instead.
