Is Gambling for All?

[JaoBadjap]

I was reading some of the gambling threads this evening and this topic just came to me. I was seen like come and gamble and make money or gamble to make extra funds so I was like, if gambling is for making extra income then everyone would like to play gamble and make that extra money but there are some inexperienced gamblers in the society, and gambling is limited to some ages. So what about those who are inexperienced on gambling? Are they also part of the gambling industry? Because gambling need experience and luck. Is it that inexperienced ones use luck or they have to have the experience first before gambling or gambling is only meant for the experience ones? Let those who are very deep in gambling should discuss and others should learn. Is Gambling for everyone? You can see more here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5484943.0

I think that Gambling isn't for everyone. Accessible to everyone, yes (Since we are at the age that everyone has a smartphone, and Online Casinos/Gambling is just one swipe away). But since, gambling requires money, understanding and legal requirements (such as age and some requires KYC) it isn't for everyone. In addition, its more like a hook, not everyone gets hooked, some just chill and some is for the mere experience.
Inexperienced gamblers are kinda like a "walk-in customer" or a "unique hits". They are also part of the gambling industry, since every professional gamblers or mere gambler started as inexperienced. And as inexperienced gamblers most likely win base on their luck (unless a game requires skills and gaming style).

Yes I agree with youd on this, underage are not permitted to gamble, but those that are of the age that are allowed to gamble .  Since gambling is based on luck, and there are no guarantees of winning, those who can afford to take the risk can gamble. Gambling is a thing of choice, it depends on the person.

Right. Gambling should be played with money that can afford to lose. Risk exists here and many gamblers ignore this risk and later blame gambling when they lose which is baseless. Gambling depends on luck, there are many who claim they have a strategy that works to win at gambling, but actually no strategy works in gambling, those who claim like this have different motives. So before coming to gambling one should know gambling well, and to know gambling well there is definitely an age importance.

Even though adults can gamble, they must also be able to ensure that they are also prepared to lose, because there are people who are quite ready to play, but they are not ready for the losses they might experience when gambling.

Because, whether we like it or not, gambling is something that is closely related to luck, so the risk of losing is very big for us, so we have to be able to make sure that we are ready to lose our money before gambling.

You can gamble without money. Almost every game and slot offers to play with play money. What about that? Kids can use candies as an alternative for money. I like how people say "inexperienced gambler", or require "skill", that it makes me wonder what are those special skills, how to get experience in gambling. As anyone can click on bet button. Majority are able to count to 21. Almost everyone knows number 0-9 and can spread them ascending or descending. Gambling is so simplified, that anyone can gamble today (however it is not advisable for some people, or allowed for underaged).

Exactly, no one is guaranteed to win in a gambling place, because in a gambling place I'm sure every user has a very different winning percentage, I don't want to think badly but if we understand the programming language then all users can be set to only get 0.1% chance of winning the number of times he places a bet. Maybe it will be different when you bet on sports betting which completely depends on the conditions on the field.

Gambling indeed combines elements of skill and luck, making it accessible but potentially challenging for inexperienced individuals. It's essential for both the industry and communities to foster responsible gambling practices and provide education for newcomers.

After all, with the right approach and mindset, gambling can offer fun and thrilling experiences to a wide audience.

You are quite bold when you only say 0.1% chance of winning when placing a bet, I don't think I have seen anyone who determines percentages like you. But of course we can say that because we will say that perhaps because of experiences we have had before.

Indeed, no one can be sure whether we will win or lose, and even though it is betting on sports, there is always a chance of losing and it has a large percentage.

What is a gambling place? The casino? Do you really think that casinos cheat and make 0.1% win chance on purpose ? That is nonsense. Such % is extremely low. I would even say it is close to impossible to win. If the casinos would really have such low win chance, nobody would go there. I hope you realize that 0.1% chance means that only 1 of 1000 bets win, and with each time counters resets. That does not mean that you will lose 999 bets, and then place a bet and win. That is why this sounds ridiculous. It will also mean that only those who can afford to make lots of bets can gamble. But people win with first or second bets for example. How come that is possible then?

But I think the OP could have talking about chances, but I will say it's slim and if others can't take that losses when they play, then they should not be gambling at all as it's base on emotions and once you are there, hard to control it.

Yes, it could be fun and can get us thrilling experience, but still though, there could be control at some point because as human, we don't want to experience the same loses when we gamble.

There is no doubt about that, it could be translated that the Game could be for everyone, but considering that the people who play are in a casino , then take things with caution and do not become too foolish to play and bet until you lose everything , that is where the logic of things fails and not much can be done, therefore we must do something that gives us a good turn to everything, if a person is responsible, it can be said that things can work very well for everyone, But with a Person that is Responsible and that is to Manage their money and their Behavior well.

Personally, I think the casino is for Everyone , but for those who cannot control their way of playing with money, I recommend that until they can control that they should not play, the same goes for emotions, if necessary. A person who cannot control Emotions and who throws himself into anything because he follows his impulses would not be good for him to be Playing in a casino.

Absolutely, there's a fine line where the fun and excitement of gambling can turn into a negative experience if one isn't careful. Self-awareness is key. Recognizing when to step away is crucial, as losses can spiral and emotions can run high. It's about finding that balance, enjoying the thrill responsibly, and knowing your limits.

Agree. Gambling should never compromise one's financial stability or emotional well being. That control is what can make the difference between a good night out and a troubling situation. Responsible gambling is not just about how much we bet, but also managing how we react to the wins and, more importantly, the losses.

Casinos are fun places but it is important to gamble responsibly. It is good, have fun and enjoy games but it is also important to be careful and control yourself. Setting limits on how much money you spend and how you feel is important when gambling. It is good idea to know when to stop playing. Be mindful, how you act and manage your money in casino can help you avoid problems and have good time. By promoting responsible gambling we can help people avoid bad things that can happen from gambling too much.

Gambling is not for everyone. Gambling is for those people who have the ability to lose money, I mean even if they lose money, they won't be in financial trouble. And gambling is primarily played for entertainment.

All categories of people can participate in gambling spontaneously, there is no barrier, but there should be no problem if gambling can be used properly.  But for those who cannot use gambling properly, it is not right to participate in gambling under any circumstances.  Students below the age of 18 cannot participate in gambling as it has the potential to seriously damage their education and ruin their careers.  And for those who cannot control themselves after engaging in gambling, it would be wise not to participate in gambling.

The gambling industry will never provide education for newcomers. This is like a person who sells cigarettes then goes about telling people not to smoke and tries to stop a person from smoking because he has smoked too much.

The bookies see gamblers as their clients and the more you gamble, the more the bookies become richer. Therefore, the bookies will not embark on any crusade that will make people run away from gambling. A gambler must learn to advise himself because the bookies will not come to his aid.

In gambling, the full risk of money is taken by the gambler, where the full risk of money is taken by a gambler, why would a gambler take the risk of his own money and gamble on the advice of others. Why do gamblers fail to understand the simple fact that it is better to lose money by gambling on your own knowledge than to lose money by gambling on advice from others because there is a lot to learn. As long as a gambler gambles on the advice of another person or takes such a decision, he will only lose money and he will only lose money but will not find the right reason for losing money and will not be able to come out of those mistakes. For those who think that gambling is too difficult to decide, then I would say that you should refrain from gambling until you feel that you cannot make the decision to gamble.

I would gladly have a discussion who thinks that gambling is for men only, for rich only, for those who are smart only, for those who wants to earn only, for those who wants to have fun only. In general I would have a discussion with those who think that gambling is for chosen people only. Even underaged gamble, but they do it more like a challenge.

Gambling is for those who can accept gambling.  Gambling is for those who find fun indulging in gambling and spend some of their important time in this gambling.  But I don't think gambling is definitely for primary school and high school level students because they will spend an important time in this student life to build their career.  If a student spends his time in gambling then his career will be in jeopardy and he will never be able to develop himself as a good and good person.  So I consider gambling as forbidden for all classes of people but only for students.
