This topic sounds bissel stupid straight in a gambling forum nevertheless everyone is in its own thought world... and although he/she/it does know that the bank stands in the end so or so as a winner, but this tropstzdem its hope in a programmed machine sets.

It may be that some here in the forum can not stand me, but nevertheless I would like to start this topic and hear your opinion on it/read, whether you are for or against gambling? Would it be better to abolish gambling if you had the possibility?

If there was a similar topic already, Gamblejoe team can close it of course.

Thank you & have a nice Saturday evening. Mfg

The beauty of gambling is that you can win but it usually does not work.I have found for me that it is better to play with small amounts.Then I can play longer and also bring in larger wins.

Hey,

This is probably a very controversial topic.

I always like to compare gambling with alcohol,
someone who drinks the occasional beer to switch off is unlikely to be seriously affected by it.
However, if someone starts drinking every day, and in the worst case even all day long, it destroys their life.

And that's how I see it with gambling, in my opinion it's not particularly bad if you occasionally throw something into the machine or alternatively pay into Online Casinos from time to time to play various slots or try your luck in the sports betting area.

Gambling there was actually almost always, earlier in the Stone Age you probably put his captured food or his hairy wife on various "stone games" (just guessing) and the more years passed the more the gambling sector has developed. Especially in recent years.

Meanwhile, gambling is represented in almost all variations, whether it is any Panini sticker booklets or Pokemon cards where children spend every day their pocket money to draw a certain card.
Or also in video games where young people spend all their pocket money to hope for some rare "ingame skins".

Likewise there is for over 50-60 years in Germany "state" gambling inform of Lotto or also in the television the whole dubious transmissions where one must look for solution words or also by SMS/call with any lotteries can participate, which are particularly popular with older humans.

I am of the opinion that it is no longer possible to ban gambling in general. It is already too late for that.

I think it would help a lot of people to abolish gambling.
Many people would have less money problems, that's a fact.

If you can no longer do something that is actually not good, you do not miss it so much, simply because you know that it no longer works.

As Julian already writes, there are countless types of gambling.
Therefore: Where does gambling begin, where does gambling end?
Even a lottery booth at the carnival would then have to be abolished, the whole lottery as well as all OCs ... of course all of Las Vegas would have to be stamped out, would of course be a great event for David Copperfield and the Ehrlich Brothers, we let Vegas disappear, yeah!

Will probably never come so far from therefore it is not worth it to break the head about it.

You can't ban gambling.

As soon as you try to do that, people start gambling again in dubious backrooms.
What about when alcohol was banned in the USA for a while? Many mafia gangs that are still active today have developed from this.


In the end, everyone is responsible for his own happiness and if he puts this on something where you are mathematically always at a disadvantage, then blame yourself.

Get your life together instead of speculating about whether it would be better to ban gambling.
Then the addicts here would just find something else, for example become drunkards and go through an addiction shift.
One is/becomes addicted because one has problems of a completely different nature. As long as you don't address them, you wouldn't get out of the addiction spiral anyway.

However, there are studies that show that the number of pathological gamblers is related to the amount of gambling available. The more gaming arcades and Slot machines in bars, the more gambling addicts there are. The balancing act is important here. According to the official statement, gambling is only legal in Germany anyway, because the human impulse to gamble is something natural and cannot be suppressed, or something like that.

I think gambling needs a much stricter regulation. My idea was once to start a general gambling registry. Every person who wants to gamble has to register and verify online and gets his personal player card. A machine will only run if a player card is inserted. Payment is also made exclusively via this card, which must be loaded beforehand. In addition, limits can be set and the player can be blocked completely and forever. Then, however, unfortunately, quite a few gambling houses close because gambling addicts let themselves be locked after a mega loss of control because the personal overcoming is much lower. And the sad truth is that gambling houses live mainly from gambling addicts. Quite an immoral industry.

I keep thinking to myself, it would probably be best for myself if it was completely banned...
So I would probably be pretty p**sed off and rather aggressive in the beginning, although that would certainly subside over time and
i would also be better off financially...

But the whole thing is a scenario that will never happen like that, what about lotto,...etc? Gambling is in so many things in life...
