Title: Is gambling acceptable in your country?
Post by: vs2014 on January 16, 2024, 04:23:16 PM
I have done a lot of research to find that many countries do not accept gambling which means you cannot gamble directly even if you want to. But online gambling is now running in all countries and they can easily gamble online while maintaining privacy. But in most of the Muslim countries playing it is totally prohibited so people of those countries cannot directly play offline gambling. However please comment on its acceptability in your country.

Gambling is not only legal in our country provided that it is licensed, my country is the one running both the physical casinos and the lottery instead of the private sectors they did this so they can sustain the health and poor sectors that badly need funds, all the profit that these platforms generated goes to the coffer, so this is why gambling is legal in our country and being encourage but only platforms that the government supported private companies that are compliant.

There's no issue for land-based casinos but the online is a bit different.

Online casinos that acquired their license in the Philippines are not allowed to offer their service to Filipinos. It's quite weird but I've seen the same rules in Curacao. However, residents are allowed to gamble on online casinos/sportsbook licensed in other countries.

Gambling and casino sites are banned by the government in my country but many gambling and casinos are developed under the eyes of the government. However, the government continues to operate these gambling and casino sites despite multiple bans and fines. Online gambling business is booming in our country especially many young people are losing capital by investing in these volatile online gambling and casino sites. Many school, college and university students are ruining their bright future by getting attracted to these online gambling and casinos.  Many times these online gambling and casino sites have been seized by the government, but it is not possible to completely end them. Therefore, no matter how many positive decisions and plans are implemented by the government, online gambling and casinos will never be 100% banned or confiscated.

Indeed there are many countries that think gambling is illegal and a huge threat to both their citizens and their economy, but among several other countries, my country happens to have legalized gambling but it's kinda regulated, especially when it comes to ages that are allowed to gamble

It is true that gambling is very much not authorised in many countries but yet their citizens do engage in online gambling with privacy and so doing nobody can notice their gambling lifestyle which as a result of the presence of online Casino which made it easier to engage without going out. Just being at your comfort zone and have your mobile phone and internet, you could just do your thing from where you are.
As a matter of fact,  the government in my nation issues licence for gambling shops aka betting shops to operate which fully makes them legal and therefore that makes them a legal entity and acceptable in my country.

like China, they also banned gambling but the Chinese are allowed to gamble in other places including Hongkong.  and there are even Chinese landbase casinos in other countries like in Cambodia and Thailand.

my country has National Lottery which my fellowmen are still hoping to win the life changing millions. we also have a lot of online casino promoted by local influences and that i guess its legal.

Likely not yet, regarding in my country with Muslim majority gambling is an acceptable or illegal activities and some one will get punishment if advertising gambling or active playing gambling. But dilemma with our politician and our citizen make Singapore as their destination for gambling or active in casino because there are have legal activities and many our politician make casino as place for money laundering.
I think all Muslim majority will not allow or legal gambling activities, there are not space for gambler and many entertainment have get low after advertising with gambling website.

gambling is allowed in Nigeria except for dice games, non-skilled card games, and roulettes.
I live in a country where there are very few job opportunities, so if our government attempts to outlaw gambling for its citizens, it will only be because he wants to make their lives difficult despite the risk involved.
However, there are Muslim communities that forbid gambling because they feel it violates their religious beliefs

Regardless, Chinese citizens are still not allowed to gamble overseas. Their embassy has been proactive in warning their citizens about gambling in other countries. China has also been asking for cooperation with other Governments to deal with cross-border gambling.

I am from the Philippines, where gambling is allowed as long as they apply for a license or register with the government agency that handles the gambling industry. However, unlike in some other countries that have a strict regulation on gambling, there is only quite a little regulation in our country. This is the main reason why some illegal online casinos operated by Chinese people try to have or continue their operations in our country, even if they are being considered illegal.

Gambling is considered a forbidden act in Muslim-majority countries, so all gambling-related activities are illegal in every Muslim-majority country. Although gambling is illegal in all major Muslim countries, there are many people who gamble on various gambling sites with great secrecy. Maybe gambling is a crime according to their legal and religious rules but if they can play in secret then they don't consider it a crime at all. Outside of predominantly Muslim countries, there are also countries where gambling is frowned upon. People who have little idea about online gambling, if they are told about washing, they will surely think that it is a very bad thing and if any member of that family gambles and if his family members come to know about his gambling then surely they will comment that their family  The child is going down a bad path. Gambling is generally considered illegal and natural depending on location and location.

Some sort of them are acceptable, but not all. You can't just open up a casino in Turkey and get people to gamble on blackjack or something (not that there is a big addiction going around i nthe youth today unfortunately all due to online ones) but at the same time you can gamble on sports anytime you want, and yo can play on lottery, there are some sort of different gambling games that you can even buy on the street, like scratch cards and so forth. Which means that, not ALL forms of gambling is allowed, but there are few different type of gambling games that are allowed by the government at the moment, been like that as far as I can remember, maybe got a bit more modernized in the past 10 years, but it has been limited but allowed in some sort of forms one way or another for decades.

I am from the Philippines, where gambling is permitted as long as it is licensed or registered with a specific government agency that manages the gambling industry. However, unlike other countries that impose strict regulations on gambling activities, there is relatively little regulation in our country. This has become the reason why some illegal online casinos operated by Chinese people to continue their operations, despite being considered illegal.

They can easily pay corrupt officials to not get caught or else they can obtain a license because they have a contact inside. Recently the operation of government to take down illegal casinos has tightened and guess what? Only a small number of illegal casinos got caught, not those whales. That is why those rich Chinese people want to operate here in our country because they can easily evade. The government also wants all of the gambling activities like casinos to pay tax which is why they are closing those illegal ones.

One line gambling is one of the best discoverable gambling system whole world. It is more popular than the offline gambling system. One the other hand many people are going to habitual with one line gambling in the recent world but sadly i have to said that the gambling is not allowed to my country weather it is offline or online. The government of our county declare that gambling is the illegal for our country. If anyone involve in gambling or any casino our legal agency take action against him. So no one can involve openly. Even regularly our government banned gambling site.

It's all about the money and connections for illegal online casinos. They can start operations without registration and without fear of being caught by the authorities. While there have been instances of raids on these casinos, they continue to increase in number. This raises questions for some other people about why they can avoid consequences and continue their illegal activities.

Gambling is completely banned in the country I live in. Still, many are physically gambling in hiding. Even if there are strict restrictions from the government, it is not possible to gamble without hiding yourself. However, those who are experienced in online gambling can also play incognito gambling. Especially I also participate in online gambling but I participate as entertainment. Also I never look for ways to make money based on this gambling because by making money from gambling I will never gain but cause more losses. So I think in any country where gambling is regulated but in countries where gambling is officially banned there is still secrecy.

No, gambling is not acceptable in my country. and you could say that gambling is one of the things that is prohibited here. There are several reasons why the government enforces this regulation, namely prohibiting gembling and considering it a criminal act. because after all, gambling here is still related to things that have more negative impacts than positive ones. Indeed, if we really understand and can manage ourselves in gambling, perhaps we can utilize and optimize it well. but unfortunately not everyone is like that and in fact most of the gamblers here actually worsen the view of gambling in society. because there are so many criminal acts of domestic violence or other bad things, one of the causes is gambling. Nowadays, there is a lot of online gambling or slots which makes many people get into it and become bad because of it.

Even though gambling is basically not that bad, its image in society is still bad. because there are many people who give or make the image of gambling worse here. I don't understand other countries, but that's what happens here.

Infact I can boldly say that almost everyone in my country knows how legal gambling is, I mean some folks even seem to take it as a means of livelihood which to extend seems deranged and confusing but the passion and confusion they have to the act is something you don't get to see in every country.

Gambling in my country is legal and to some extent many have lots their way too due to their lack of discipline towards gambling . There are different forms of knowledge and the most powerful is online gambling, folks have grown so much love that one could empty his pocket online just to feel that feeling.

Gambling is legal in my country but some legislations make it illegal for children to gamble. That is, children below 18 years are considered minors and so, it is illegal for them to gamble.

Countries where gambling is considered illegal want to protect citizens and the country from gambling addiction which is capable of leading to gambling-related crimes.

Most people have been forced to steal, smoke, become alcoholic and even sell properties due to frustration. In a bid to prevent this, countries have placed a ban on gambling activities. Even in some countries where it is considered legal, some States prohibit it.

Online gambling is also regulated, for example Spain, other, Stake recently opened a license in Colombia to be able to operate in that country.

In the case of poker, for example, there are several countries that can only play with their countrymen. In my case I can play with anyone where their country allows it, that is a benefit because it improves player traffic.

In the case of traditional casino games, that doesn't really matter, you just want to bet against the casino.  :)

You are right that now the opportunity to play in a casino depends on the player’s location. And if, for example, in Russia you cannot go to a casino - after all, they are not legalized there, then in Belarus, which is very close, you can always go and play in a casino.

But online casinos seem accessible to everyone, but this is not so. For example, when trying to get into the Roobet casino, I only succeeded with one of many IPs for VPN. Another contries IP was rejected by website.

In the Philippines, I will say that it part of our culture so it's hard to stop gambling here even by our government. In the pandemic era, our government introduces e-sabong, or cockfighting. And know we have like 3 or 4 big casinos in the country that has been operating in the last 10 years or so. With the proliferation of online gambling as well, I will say that our country has more gambling addicts as everything is accessible. Hopefully, those countries like ours who accepts gambling, will have some sort of programs as well to prevent their people to becoming a gambling addict.

Yep. Gambling is prohibited in Muslim countries. But people still can gamble by using VPN, they can access online gambling sites with VPN. Sure, they have no chance to play in offline gambling. If they want to play it, they must go to the countries when the offline gambling is allowed. Actually, there is always a chance to gamble there, but it is difficult because there is a strict regulation.

In my locality, offline gambling are more influencer to posseses gamblers to irresponsible gambling. An individual gambler could behave so radical that they could engage on causing mayhem within the gambling due to their unbearable states of being to accept an unacceptable losts and this has caused why offline gambling has been termed illegal to the society while the anxieties of a loosing gambler in an offline could be manageable in controlling the gamblers angry emotions. At this costs, online gambling is a legitimate gambling board which is authoritically approved and termed legalized.

Nevertheless, I think that many gamblers are only interested in online casinos. Going to an offline casino is cool, of course, but the basic meaning of the casino is perfectly respected in online services. Many players will even play only online, even if they have the opportunity to go to an authorized in their country offline casino, because it is convenient and they can spin slots online lying on the couch, drinking cokes.

In the country where I live, tides are completely prohibited and it is an offense under the law. My country has never recognized gambling and may not in the future because it is an evil act that destroys a family and a nation. Due to which this gambling is banned but nowadays most of the people play online gambling through which no one from his family and society can know but inside he becomes addicted to gambling a lot. Although it is now possible to gamble on various casino platforms using a VPN, this is how people gamble in almost all countries.

I could not agree with your opinion because the government of any country does not want a harmful institution to be formed in its country to harm the country and the nation. But these institutions are built only for a handful of bad people in the country who do not want the good of the country and nation. Moreover, another thing is that most of the people in our country develop interest in bad and forbidden things, and as a result of developing interest in bad things such as gambling, alcohol, ganja etc., they become socially bad. In this case, there will be no benefit in blaming the country's government and law enforcement agencies.

It's not like that in all countries,there are some countries that legalise gambling because it can also be a source of income.Not all countries have what it takes to earn a living,and not all countries are developed to the extent that their government provide job for all citizens,citizens are left to fend for themselves,therefore,gambling and playing online games are a source of income to people living in different countries.There are some countries where they open bettings shops,and allow people to play games with using money,all these happen because they need money.

According to regulations, gambling in our country is actually prohibited, but strangely there are lots of online gambling sites here.  I'm surprised myself, but this is the reality. 
However, if they are arrested by the police, they will also be jailed. 
What does that mean, in my opinion there is a game between law enforcement and the gambling owners so that even though gambling is prohibited, in reality they can still operate here.

Since all these casinos and gambling sites are developed outside the complete reach of government and law enforcement, the government has nothing to do if public money is embezzled from these casinos and gambling sites.

To gamble there you need to carry certain amount of money only then you can gamble. However, gambling is fully permitted in some of the other developed countries. Moreover, with the advent of online gambling, it has become more accessible to people. Through which people can gamble in any way they want.

The things that permanent bans offer for casinos, I really don't see the point, because it is opportunely a business model option, it is also a way for people to go and earn their money, to have fun and have a good time. a different time, or I know why our governments don't allow that, as far as I'm concerned I'm in a country where they banned casino games for more than 20 years and that's something that didn't bring anything good, the people didn't become more intelligent or nothing, the effect is the same as if they had a caisno, no slight meaning.

In another aspect, if it is sproque in a country according to its religion, it is not allowed, that is another thing, I don't get involved in that, but everyone has their rules, and in each country they live the way they like best, and with regional issues, politics, and delicate things like that, well, I simply follow the rules of those countries, where I decide what to do, it's in mine that I do know how everything moves.

Everyone has access to Gambling in my country, it's true that some countries restricts people from gambling because they believe gambling is nothing more than a vice to people. Gambling addiction isn't the only addiction out there, so I think the efforts they are putting in to restrict gambling addiction should be applied in other aspects too, drug addiction too is also a disease. In some countries online gambling has been completely made inaccessible because they are trying to stop people from getting addicted to it
This has a little bit of dictatorship all over it because you are trampling on people's free will

Everyone has access to gambling in my country, but there are still individuals and people who have a bad view towards anyone who they see and know is a gambler; they oftentimes consider that person as an irresponsible individual who can be a danger to society. So to an extent, I will conclude and say that gambling is not completely acceptable to every individual in my country, even though our government has not illegalized it.

i think in every society there is at least one group of people that have the belief that gambling is no good and shall not be tolerated nor endorsed most people are those that are religious of course we respect their religion and beliefs but they should also not force others to follow their beliefs because we have our own

anyway in my country as long as a gambling site is licensed then it can operate afaik

So to an extent, I will conclude and say that gambling is not completely acceptable to every individual in my country, even though our government has not illegalized it.
Although gambling is not legalized in my country, it is widespread almost everywhere. But gambling is always perceived as a negative activity. Those who gamble try to gamble while maintaining their privacy. So that no one can make negative comments about them. Because by gambling there are many people who have quickly transform to hard life and lost all their wealth. They fail to practice responsible gambling but blame gambling when they loss. That is why gambling is considered negatively.

I think UAE has supported gambling for tourists and maybe not for the locals since it is haram for them. Here in my country gambling is everywhere a couple of years ago online casino is on trend but right now seems the government has imposed a strict regulations to gambling sites and does even banned POGO which offers different services including gambling and other illegal activities like scam.

Gambling is not illegal in my country but I don't like that they are advertising it more like everywhere from the internet, billboards, etc.  It feels like they’re targeting vulnerable individuals because they say they will win big but winning in casinos is not guaranteed and might even worsen the financial situation.

I live in a small country, and gambling is allowed here: both physical and online. But it would be better if there were no physical casinos here, because gamblers come from neighboring countries, and gambling is prohibited in their countries. I understand that the budget is replenished by their bets, but often these are not prosperous guests, and they do not respect order and traditions.

Yes, it's acceptable here in our country and heck, it's becoming more and more popular especially online casinos.
Influencers promoting online gambling websites, billboards everywhere in the urban area, online gambling casinos being promoted in various social media platforms. This just shows that our government doesn't show any stoppage to these casinos.

On the other hand, these casinos are the ones that are registered here in our country and allowed by the SEC to operate. There's a thing called POGOs where they got completely banned already... or are they?? Anyway, gambling is accepted here in our country, and its popularity is increasing on a fast pace, and this is also the reason why there are some lives that got completely ruined already.

Not everyone will gamble and not everyone will view gambling positively but those who like it will definitely come the platform. It is not the case that a casino company will get all of its targeted gamblers just by spreading the bill board or the Internet. If they can promote them properly in the right places then the amount of gamblers will be found. Gamblers who are ambitious or dream of winning big are the main targets of casino establishments. Even though there is no legalization in my country, the number of gamblers is relatively high.

like China, they also banned gambling but the Chinese are allowed to gamble in other places including Hongkong.  and there are even Chinese landbase casinos in other countries like in Cambodia and Thailand.
Regardless, Chinese citizens are still not allowed to gamble overseas. Their embassy has been proactive in warning their citizens about gambling in other countries. China has also been asking for cooperation with other Governments to deal with cross-border gambling.

seem hard to believe they don't allow their citizen to gamble overseas. they all seem to be gambling in our country and mr cheng himself is a government official in China plays mah jong so much he died still having a mah jong peice/block in his hand.

Even though this thread is old and has already have decent number of replies no one really pointed out OP made a mistake that users can gamble from the country via online if it's banned but in reality it doesn't work like that users from banned countries are not allowed to access the online platform as well and there's list of restricted countries along with that notice of no user should access from the restricted jurisdiction.

there is no stopping the online gambling anymore. we have even seen some articles about teens gambling using their phones inside their school campus. anyone today with a phone can access casinos online. so if its not legal to play on casino in a country yet people have access to internet, everything is possible.

Gambling is highly accepted in my country infact some youths use this gambling as a job and also a means of survival in my country. Some of them even sleep in the casino just to be updated.
When you mentioned that gamble are not allowed in some countries I'm now trying to know which of the gambling you are talking about.
I believe the only gamble that is legal in my country is a sporting bet where you can go to the casino book your bet either in visual or online and it's even allowed in mobile phones.
Apart from this, no form of other gambling is legal or accepted in my country.

Not only acceptable, but government itself is providing us with gambling so that others don't. I mean its not very liberal, but I find it quite understandable approach to it, when you let private companies open up casinos, you do not know what type of people there are in there, whereas when government has a "casino" which is sportsbook in my nation, then you end up with something better. They are giving some private companies some rights and some licenses etc as well these days and selling their own rights, but we could definitely consider the improvement very well, and I haven't seen too many bad news about gambling here. There are also a lot of illegal gambling as well, but they are illegal so obviously people shouldn't gamble in those casinos.

Everything is fine until the player lose money from gambling but when they wanted to withdraw funds there will be KYC verification on most of the casino in the recent past years so user has to submit a valid document and even if they manage to find someone else's like parent or a relative still they are not going to chance the country name which gives the rights to terminate the account by the casino.

I have done a lot of research to find that many countries do not accept gambling which means you cannot gamble directly even if you want to. But online gambling is now running in all countries and they can easily gamble online while maintaining privacy. But in most of the Muslim countries playing it is totally prohibited so people of those countries cannot directly play offline gambling. However please comment on its acceptability in your country.
And I think my country is also in your list because here our government also banned on gambling and playing gambling in our country is illegal you have to go jail if you caught while you are doing physical gambling in casino.
But as you said we also saw that most of the gambling site are running smoothly in my country even without VPN so they even didn't put the Ip block. Yes there are lots of gambling sites in the world so you can say that impossible to make banned on every IP yes it is true but they can easily banned most sites of gambling but they didn't doing this I also don't know what is the reason behind of this but I think here the governments some authorities doing this because of some their personal benifiacial.

Is gambling not conducted in countries where casinos or gambling are prohibited? I think that no matter how much pressure the governments apply, have they been able to turn the general public away from gambling? If they can't then there is no point in giving them this restriction. But they only put restrictions to avoid their liability so that the general public can't blame them. In my country there is a regulation in this regard but no one follows it. They are gambling and governments know it very well but they can't do anything.

Before you see things like this you should know that the gambling site has the interest of the gambler in that particular region or state and they are making huge profits from that country, they would have no alternative than to make friends with the politicians in order to remain in that country and run there business.
Politicians always like a milking zone and whenever they kept having the resources from where it's coming from they have no problem if they are destroying others people life or not.

I don't personally see that rational behind not allowing people to gamble as it's there fundamental human rights that should be given to them as doing so amounts to a violation if the right of the citizens of the country gambling is something that is even helpful to the countries where they are be made legal by the government as these gambling companies pay tax to the government there by contributing to the economic development of such country so gambling should be made legal for citizens to engage in as it's even a way of creating wealth for the citizens

Personally, I am not aware of any fraudulent gambling sites; however, a gambler should be certain about the reputation of the gambling site before using such a platform for gambling. Most gamblers may fall for a fraudulent gambling site because they are too eager for juicy offers, and one thing about fraud is that it always appears too tempting. Gamblers should always be on the lookout.

However, from my experience, most gambling sites will compel a gambler with a large win to undergo KYC before receiving the winnings. Personally, I am not sure why this is not required when a gambler funds his account, but it is always required before he can withdraw his winnings, especially if it is his first big win on the gambling site.

Local and and some platforms that are new are more likely to happen in those sites. One of my friends who got a big win after a long time but his account was removed. That is why no one should gamble on a platform that is likely to fail to give big wins or they may be lost.

Gambling is an individual thing. It's something that an individual determines on it's own. Whereas, there is no prohibition or restrictions by the government does not mean that there is free license to gamble by the Nigeria government. This is because,  gambling on its own is an investment,  that can pay or fails in substance.  But in this investment,  the government does not make any profit,  from it. Games of skill are allowed. While games of chance are illegal and rightly prohibited in Nigeria.

but once the Nigerian government makes money out of gambling activity, they are allowing gambling correct?

in the case then, it doesn't have much difference to most counties that allowed casinos form the start. but i can understand there is always a battle of political parties in the country, none are open for bipartisan agreement for both parties to benefit to the casinos and online gambling.  its an old case that had been going on for decades. even the most catholic county can become a tourist destination for gamblers when laws are changed.

That is why change always opens up possibilities which we can then us in order to establish something that is better for everybody. Altogether, we will be able to come up with the best environment that will pave way for economic growth and at the same time boasting of being a responsible society. Appropriate policies coupled with non-twisted management will facilitation the equitable share of value to society and not for a selected stakeholders. As citizens, stakeholders, consumers, businesses and policy makers we all have a duty of stewardship to make sure that every action we take is aimed at creating value and leaving behind that which will be beneficial to the next generation.

I just want to share this story of my classmates guy #1 told me that our guy #2 classmate that works overseas has won millions worth of our local currency from online gambling but the problem is that it is prohibited in the country he was working and he was deported because of suspicious transactions of money that he sent to his family in our country which does not correlate the value he got from his salary. What makes it worst is that some of his money was put on hold and he's now using our other classmate guy #3 to loan money to fullfil guy #2's urge to gamble. Until such time that guy #2 arrived in our country his money was still on hold overseas what's left with him is the huge amount of loan he is facing right now and guy #3 as a middleman to that said loan is currently paying on behalf of  guy #2.

I was really shocked when guy #1 shared that story because I never expected that to happen to them, by the way guy #1, #2 and #3 were my previous uplines as agents in online gambling but I quit after I think just less than a year.

That is why, if gambling is legal, then there is a place for people to get the pleasure as they desire, but there exists still an obligation in the process. Some elements in how we assert that freedom without detracting the lives of people around us which include the aspect of invading privacy and other social etiquette that go with the personal freedom. Moreover, it is right about clear rules and safety for everyone, excluding possibilities for certain risks which is important for making secure environment.

You are right, if casinos compare IP location  and KYC, they might likely ban many gamblers account with their casino and these gamblers to be banned are those from restricted nations and this would mean a loss for them but however, I believe most casino are aware of some of their client or customers activities and maybe they have not won big hence they do not want to act, they just keep betting and loosing to the benefit of the casino so they do not bother them but allow them to gamble till they catch the big fish that is when they would remind them that they know about their dirty act but did not say anything about it. This just my annoyance with casinos. They would not take action early enough but would want to benefit from the member when they have lost enough but when they start winning big that is when they would recall the gambler cut corners to access their platform.

It's really a shame if this happens, it's useless to have a big win if you can't claim it, it's better not to play than to force yourself to play and when you win you can't withdraw it
Even then it is worst thing ever but I think we should also be aware of this because I have same lots of cases that the player just can't withdraw his  reward from the casino because of only this laws.
In case of avoid this situations we should play on those casinos which are only available in our region and those who have VPN friendly terms and conditions..

Local and and some platforms that are new are more likely to happen in those sites. One of my friends who got a big win after a long time but his account was removed. That is why no one should gamble on a platform that is likely to fail to give big wins or they may be lost.
Have your friend play on those gambling site which are not allowed in your country like I have heard something like this issue that they played on those casino which are not allowed it in their country and play on those casino by using the VPN or the proxy and once have big reward they required to fill the KYC and in this case they failed to do that and that is why they also unable to access that prize.

It's really a shame if this happens, it's useless to have a big win if you can't claim it, it's better not to play than to force yourself to play and when you win you can't withdraw it
That's why I think it's better to do KYC first when gambling. Otherwise, the gambler can be caught cheating at any time but there will be no proof of his identity. If someone gambles without doing KYC, then he is at the highest risk. The only reason to take time to read the terms and conditions when gambling so that gamblers can avoid any problems in the future.

Absolutely right, certain casino locations may sometimes have certain somewhat rigorous regulations. Challenges like the time it takes or rather the impossibility of withdrawing profits from the casino can be very demoralising, this is if it happens because of failure to get information about the rules to be followed. We can do this by ensuring that the casino we are going for can function well in our region of operation. That is why it important for use to conduct research before get in is the right move to ensure that the playing experience is not hindered by any future obstacles. Also, we can promote platforms that players are protected, including commonly used platforms such as VPNS, so that our casino site access and playing convenience as players are ensured.

I saw multiple report of the people about this that they play on those casino that is not available in their region for the for  their  regional laws or something else that the casino's matter.
Now if we are a fool people then we will do that using the VPN, because there are still lots of casinos who were decentralize and available globally to the all regions. And also they can use the VPN friendly casino's in that case obviously must check the terms and condition for playing on that casino's because I have sawn lots of casino's who were VPN friendly but still restricted to the some countries citizen.

Gambling is freedom and fun, there is no barrier in most applied cases of gambling, people are doing it because they are enjoying it without being obligated to it, when we gamble, we are going to get the satisfaction of being entertained despite the fact our money is being involved, but yet we wont still mind, many countries have taken it on a light hand over gambling that they were aware everyone gambles in their numbers but has nothing to do with that, since its a personal decision taken.

Gambling is really freedom if we have discipline and we are not hooked into it.because the time we are attached to it then that freedom will start to fade because emotions and greed will takeover. Here in my country gambling is not prohibited but only those who are registered operators are allowed.

Everything will really be that basing up into someones contol and if you arent that good when it comes into this aspect then you will definitely be having a hard time on controlling yourself towards gambling. In speaking about acceptance or legality then it will really be basing up into a certain country because not all will be accepting gambling on which there are places which is this thing is totally ban. Therefore, it will really be that situational into this aspect because there will be those companies that operating illegaly despite of the prohibition and same goes into those people who do play into these places too. We do know that gambling business is really that profitable and thats why government will really be looking this to be a good business to be allowed because of the huge taxes that it could give.

I don't think that the countries in the world that have banned gambling that  without knowing that there is a huge amount of tax that could be collected from gambling. I think their higher-ups are aware of this, yet it is still banned.
Because the countries that have banned gambling may have specific reasons, such as their religious prohibitions or their social or cultural beliefs that gambling is against them. And to respect those things, gambling is banned in those countries.

Even if you feel that gambling is freedom, you need to know the regulation in your country. If gambling isn't allowed in your country, you can't force yourself to gamble there. I know everyone has their right to gamble but we must obey the regulation in our country. However, it is true that gambling is more like a fun activity. It shouldn't be a place to expect gaining for money constantly. If people can get money constantly in gambling, those gamblers must be already rich people. In fact, many gamblers become bankrupt because they don't understand the nature of gambling.

Gambling is acceptable here in Nigeria. Nigerians have a variety of gambling platforms to choose from and I also think that millions of Nigerians are into one form of gambling or the other.

One of the rationale behind the growth of gambling is poverty and unemployment.

Gambling is a social currency where many people think it as fun or a way they could change their lives in the society where you live in, among others. But, it is our prerogative to keep explaining how to have fun while playing, and never let it become something people and the society in our country have to bear.

The legalisation and efficient regulation and monitoring of gambling can make a positive complementation through effective taxation and employment from the infamous lot from across the legalising countries including the US, UK, Italy, Australia Spain and others. When policies are clear regarding such matters and backing of financial literacy is done in such a way that people clearly know the risks involved it would be easy to harness all these for social gain without compromising the general public.

I agree with you that the general public of countries where gambling is not allowed should keep themselves away from gambling. But the governments of some countries are so corrupt that they only work for their own interests. They do not follow what they say in their mouths. They only show of their position in front of the public but in reality they do something different. If we advise any citizen of that country to follow the rules of the country or government completely, it may be worthless.

Only Islamic countries don't like gambling and it might notvbe legalized there. My country has no problem with gambling and we have betshops all over the places for easy access to gamblers. Gambling has been in existence since the creation of man because it is fun.

Yes if you are choose the Decentralized casino those will be for the VPN friendly and if you are seeing the other casino is promoting that they were VPN friendly then you can also try a look to their terms and condition because many of them have contradict rules about they were VPN friendly. I always try to use the casino who were available in my region. I have also try out some casino even they were showing or promoting that they were VPN friendly but I don't face any issues with that. I think in a certain amount or before the suspicious activity they won't gonna stop you. Stake, DGbet  etc

Indeed, it is talking about the safe play there is nothing better way to play on those casino site who were available in your region. Although hitting the jackpot is a secondary issue, I think that for regular gambling, a small number of top level casinos are enough, such as stake, Duelbits, Bc.game. I get my regular enjoyment from these. Anyway, just because I mentioned the word regular, don't think that I am an addicted gambler..... hahaha

Every culture across the globe has had some form of gambling at some point in time, for one reason to another. For some it is a kind of entertainment, which gives that kind of feeling on its own. But, it is safer for us not to be careless on anything that moves around money, including gambling, so that time we won’t encounter problems. Than again, as we all well aware people have their rights and freedom to make decisions though the aspect of balance and self-control is always key. Consequently, any choice of the kind of an activity should be made not only by regarding the effects that can occur, both to the individuals and to the environment. Effective decisions are clearly defined by the need to develop the maturity needed for the long haul.

I have done a lot of research to find that many countries do not accept gambling which means you cannot gamble directly even if you want to. But online gambling is now running in all countries and they can easily gamble online while maintaining privacy. But in most of the Muslim countries playing it is totally prohibited so people of those countries cannot directly play offline gambling. However please comment on its acceptability in your country.
In my homeland, Bangladesh, gambling may not have been legalized yet, meaning it is still considered a prohibited activity. But I came abroad on a worker visa to earn money for work, but gambling and drinking alcohol are legal here.

Nigeria is a country that does not see gambling as a something bad because they know that you cannot stop people from gambling as long as it's their money. I think the Islamic countries are the ones that might prohibit gambling because it's against their tradition.

Well we have always seen that everything is "fun" and most people will say that it is fun and yes, it is but the goal is always to win money, the casinos will always say that the best thing is to play to have fun, to have a different time, but the player as such is looking to win , in that search to win is that it can probably become an addiction, but this is something that should be taken care of a lot, it is not good to get upset when you lose nor is it good to continue Betting with large amounts of money, it is best to be quite responsible with what you risk.

Call it manipulation or not it's one of the things that makes betting interesting especially on how it affects the outcome of a football game so we can't rule out the what do call manipulation in sporting events because to me it adds colour and make the game even more interesting because referees are also part of the game so their decision go a long way in influencing the outcome of a game

You said it, for me manipulations are always very obvious in the case of football, in the SPANISH League they are doing it shamelessly, many complaints from Madrid about certain eventualities that they do not whistle, and that is very obvious, but the opposing team is given fouls, so there is no fairness or impartiality, that has become a problem, in fact Madrid has already made a formal request to FIFA and UEFA to move to the Premier League, that is how serious the corruption is.

There are many things which appear interesting when the environment is charged with happiness, and in the prospect of obtaining something, which is greater than what we do. In such an environment, a person easily falls prey to the desire to continue trying her luck as this has been proven to work in the past. However, beyond those good points, there is the fact that not everything in life can be as we want it to be and that is something that is not easy to handle. Staying calm at every given occasion is not possible, but it should be done to avoid further losses that might be incurred.

With the statement from your government, it means the local gambling will be legal with certain rules. But here in my country, gambling is totally banned because our government assumes it harms everyone. So, there will be no hope for local gambling. Most people here will play gambling from other countries sites, or from global gambling sites. However, we must be careful that the government doesn't know. We may get a trouble if the government knows it.  ;D

and for gambling, whatever religion in your country, this is a drama and continues to this day. where there are sanctions that must be given to the perpetrators of gambling. especially online gambling which is currently a very complicated problem for this nation, so gambling is increasingly strict to limit and is not allowed.

It is the responsibility of everyone in a society to ensure that there is law and order considering that whatever is deemed as evil will lead to the suffering of many individuals. So, when a rule is laid down there must be some logic as to why that rule was set and among the logical reasons include issues to do with protection of families as well as future generations from negative impacts. Once again, determination while enforcing the ban on something that is thought of as a threat to societal values is concern for the welfare of the society. Of course, everyone would love to live in a secured society with desirable cultural standards that would be preserved. In this case, determination to hold on to something that has already been set is another way of supporting the achievement of a common goal of making life better for all.

In my case, I live in a country where patience no longer exists, no one who lives in this country has any patience because of the government, we lost respect for the military, police, national guards because they all became totally corrupt, and that is something that is obvious from a mile away, the guards, the military are involved in big business, and they are the ones who make a lot of money, so when it comes to them prohibiting something from you, it is something that is not accepted, it is not accepted, irreverence reached a very high level, I think that patience has run out for many.

The increase of gambling activities has nothing to do with wether gambling is legal or not but what we need to know is that increases in gambling activities in most countries has a link with the bad economic situation of such countries where there are no meaningful activities for the youths to be meaningful engaged in it is only natural that the youths will look for an alternative source of making an income for a living and gambling happens to be one of such things where people do for survival, gambling is now seen as a big industry and is considered a business by many who engage in it

People and their societies also possess their own techniques of addressing the different things that evolve around them. This is the case whenever a particular entity becomes integrated into the lives of many people and some of the views are positive while others are negative. It is evident that what a person does depends on the context especially when discussing constraints in attaining other opportunities. This is a strategy not only in terms of people’s behaviour, but as to how they learn to fit into certain conditions. Every change that occurs always ushers in different thoughts, and that is what makes a society to move and grow continually.

In my country gambling is likely one of the biggest markets right now, and that's not as a result of it being considered legal or not, as far as the law is concerned in my country gambling is considered legal, but while we have a lot of moral scrutiny from majorly the adults, they always speak directly against gambling in all its form, however, the youth have the most association with gambling, it's almost the order of the day within the youths as it's considered as means of livelihood and occupation due to the lack of job and basic social amenities target for youth empowerment.
I'm curious where do you come from? I assume you are from European country, right? In my country, gambling is totally banned. I am not surprised with this because most of countries in ASIA look like to prohibit gambling. But in European countries, I assume gambling is legal and supported by the governments.

There are quite a lot of online gambling platforms in my country, and there are always ads that appear on smartphones every time you open a paid service and you have to watch the ads first, even though the majority of people in my country are Muslim and gambling should be strictly prohibited, but again, everyone always has their own rights as long as they are able to finance their own gambling.

Its technical from gambling platform website try to advertise their platform how to get interested from many people, during your country gambling is legal activities I think every day have thousand kinds of gambling platform spend much money for promote their website.
Difference in my country Indonesia, gambling as illegal activities and there are no way for advertising and most of gambling website change their domain almost every week, its detected suspend by our government when founding any gambling website except gambling platform other country.

Indonesia is the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, and in fact gambling does not recognize religion... some Muslims who are not devout mostly gamble since they were teenagers. that means, religion is not a barrier enough to sort out between gambling interests and not...

A serious problem in Indonesia today is, gamblers are too addicted to returning their lost money when playing slots, even though slots themselves are games that are already known to win... so I think the perfect factor to be used as a reason why many people gamble is economic factors, not religious factors...

Whether gambling is prohibited or not, as long as their economy still hopes for money from gambling, then gambling will continue to live there.

Not sure it works like that. No country will prohibit gambling and still expect to profit from it. The only way a country's economy benefits from gambling is through the taxes that betting sites pay to the government. When these taxes are paid to the government, they are directed toward the country's economy. This is how it works.

Thus, where gambling is prohibited, such a country cannot benefit from it because it prevents them from receiving tax and other benefits from the betting site.

It boils down to weight the severity of gambling menace on the citizens to the revenue it will accrue to the country. Some countries are too religious that they don't welcome gambling. Gambling in its own has done more harm than good to the economy.

This is where the government needs to strike a balance. But even in the prohibited countries, people still play with vpn

Yes, it has actually become a tradition, especially the illegal ones, during festive days. There are so many casinos that, despite many operating without a license, people still use them. This is mainly because they are heavily promoted online through social media without any consequences.

When it comes to the issue of gambling approvals, we have to consider many factors that contribute to that such factors as religion and cultural practices, in most highly religious and culturally inclined societies, gambling is seen as a sin and punishable under the customary laws.

So we need to accept that fact and not question too much why some gambling platforms are restricted and at what level their illegal approaches are we should put in place all necessary applications and take note of regional and religious restrictions alongside government regulations on gambling.

It appears that when something has become popular and has become in one way or another the normal way of doing things among many people, then it lasts. Readily available through various methods which makes things more and more developed and out of control. The people do not always avoid something because it is against the law or is prohibited by existing laws if it has been in practise for sometime. The factor that also stands out significantly is promotion for the programme to be continuous so as to attract more people to participate more often. This can easily be explained that as long as there is palpable interest and more so demand, something will go on without regard to existing limitations.

This happens when authorities selectively decide when and how to enforce their power. Corruption plays a significant role, along with cultural factors. This country have a history of colonization, and gambling has been ingrained in society for centuries — from the wealthy to the poor, no one is exempt. This tradition, which dates back over 300 years, continues today, even extending to online betting.

Not only that, I think if a country prohibited gambling, on the one hand they will lose revenue from gambling platforms, on the other hand those who like to gamble will try to gamble on other sites. And if that happens, that country will suffer from all sides. That is why I think every country should allow gambling platforms. If they allow gambling platforms, they will get revenue and if they don't, their country's money will go to other countries. Along with allowing gambling platforms, governments can also campaign to raise awareness about gambling for the public so that people don't consider it a source of income and don't get addicted. As we see in the case of drugs.

In a country where gambling is legal and even something that is prohibited in a country, their advertisements will always be there. Moreover, now we are in the digital era where we can very easily access anything.

Yes, Nowadays many different forms of promotions can be obtained easily in many places since technological developments in diverse areas made information diffusion more effective. Products that would otherwise be located in particular places are spread across the different platforms within a short span of time. Another one that has also developed is promotions in aspects concerning those games that entail gambling. This is true notwithstanding the fact that the rules of many places in the world differ and promotions are not as loud as before, but they can still be seen at some places in different forms. Since information becomes easily available, the presence of this kind of promotion will always remain among the things that are observed in daily life.

It is true, bears are always very led to believe that the promotions can be very good and accessible, making us believe that we are missing out on a gold mine, however this has made prohibited countries have access to this yes or yes, if they are prohibited by a government, then entering by VPN is the best , and they go to the casinos that have VPN acceptance, that is why it is so important that the casinos accept VPN and thus they can generate more entries to those people and those problems are generated when they go to withdraw money thanks to the KYC.

Well, if we want to force it in a country that prohibits it, then we also have to know what the risks are, because if one day there is something we don't want, like we can't make withdrawals and so on, then we have to accept it.

The reason is that there are also many cases where users do not accept that their accounts are frozen because they use VPNs, so they get angry and label the casino a scam.

Indeed, that's true. In fact, there are countries close to countries that aren't banned. You can register from the non-banned country if you want, then switch to the banned country and play with a VPN. These cases can happen, so sometimes, for casinos, cases like this are really complicated.

As for people who Sometimes accuse casinos of scams for not Accepting VPN play, there are many possible reasons, but I hope that one day things with casinos will accept VPNs as before and without KYC registrations.

KYC is also something that is often discussed, because some agree and some don't. While I personally have no problem with it, as long as the casino is indeed trusted and they can guarantee the security of our personal data.

We have the will and the casino makes the policy, whatever will we want depends on the casino's policy, I mean we have to accept any policy from the casino.

Every action has its own repercussions, more so if you decide to go on playing the game in a country that prohibits it. Any issue that may arise for instance a frozen account, or in some cases funds cannot be withdrawn is in fact risk that has been in existence from the onset. Different casinos have laid down rules that if one is bound to follow, and failure to follow leads to certain occurring actions. Often, such people feel let down when they have to deal with this situation, while, actually, there were procedures that had to be laid down from the beginning. Consequently, it is very critical to have insights into the current state of affairs before certain measures are taken.

Yes, I fully agree with you, no one actually gets addicted to gambling when they don't do it excessively. Not only gambling but anything that's done excessively can cause addiction.

There's sugar addiction, there're similar type of multiple addictions and those become addictions when someone overdo it.

Those who do gamble with responsibility won't get addicted to it, but it's also a fact that the ones who're too greedy always get addicted to gambling.

Agreed, That there is a possibility of deriving benefits once well-structured rules puts into practise. It is quite clear how an organised system makes the activities, which were considered as enjoyable, serve the purpose of adding to the national income through taxes. The funds can then be utilised to fund several programmes of advancement as well as enhancement of facilities considered important to the broader public. The activity used in this paper demonstrates that it is possible for all the parties in the chain to be winners, that is, it has a positive impact in the economic area, and that every move taken has a positive effect in the long-term effect of society inclusive of al the layers in the supply chain.

This literally happened to someone I know, he is working abroad in a country that prohibits gambling and there continued playing online casino maybe using VPN but he was deported because of his luck in gambling but unfortunately the AML in that country monitored him and pointed out that his momey sent to our country is suspicious since he is only earning standard salary in that specific country luckily he only got deported.

Gambling is legal in my country, but it allows to operate casinos only with local licenses. This means locals can gamble only on local casino sites, because every other casino page with different domain wont load. This also applied to crypto casinos, but system does not work perfectly. For example using one IP I can open stake.com, but using different I get http 404 error message. It sometimes even open and does not open casinos accessing them when using same IP. For example, I can enter stake.com and page wont load, make refresh in few hours and it would load.

Your country has a strict regulation and casino then. Most countries do not take their regulation to such an extent, they will only inform the casino not to operate in their countries because if they are found they would be fined. It will then be the duty of the casino to blacklist such countries. But for your country to block the IP against foreign casino means they are serious. Why allow local casino then? Maybe they are more interested in their commissions and the money local casino generate for them more than the well being of the youth. The menace of gambling is much in most countries and my country inclusive.

Addiction starts when you are dissatisfied with your winnings or want to catch up on previous losses, many of these processes become real addictions.
In gambling there is more curiosity after not winning a large amount, but if it cannot be controlled then they can experience greater losses.

Gambling is one of the most popular forms of entertainment that are being practised today and pulled in many customers despite the laid down measures in different countries. Some governments have revealed it has economic value through the use of taxes, however, some governments still keep it under regulated due to some reasons. However, the real situation is that with the help of applied technologies, it is relatively easy to obtain these services, even in such countries as the USA. This proves the fact that the existing standards and rules are still far from the real practise in the given sphere. It is accepted without fail that every nation has their own legal system which they follow as per the policies and beliefs they hold but society on the same note has its own ways in a manner in which they are going to survive such conditions.

The word gambling sounds more deep so you would hardly hear it but rather what is preferably said is betting as that is what is generally considered to be of an easy going one. However, my country is not against it as the government taxes the betting organisation in the country and they generate huge revenue and either ways, they both benefits from it.
Gambling is prohibited in our country but some gambling platforms are running their business. Moreover, there is no significant law on gambling in my country. But it is understood that it is difficult for the government to stop it. I believe that the way this industry is developing, gambling should be legalized in the future. However, the impact of gambling has increased so much that the common people are confused about whether it is legal or illegal. I see that most of the gamblers are gambling on their gambling apps.

It is true that the gambling industry is growing so fast and gaining traction. However still yet, some government do not recognise it while some do and are taking taxes from the gambling organisations in their various countries serving as a source of revenue collection for them.  I believe that irrespective of the fact that some government put a restriction on it in their country, their nationals still gamble through app with the help of VPN on those casinos with a no KYC policy. Talking of the legality and illegality, I just believe the laws of every land takes it course as it is enshrined in the constitution of that country.

You are right when you talk about the government taking taxes from gambling. There are some countries with nothing to hold onto, but rather they have and approve the existence of gambling and casinos in their countries. They make sure they take it seriously as they collect taxes from these gambling and casino organisations. They make sure they provide a conducive environment for them to thrive in because they are the major source of their revenue, so they would not want them to go away.

As for gambling being that popular,  I do not doubt it because from the beginning, right from the days of mans existence before now, man has gambled in various form, so you saying gambling is popular is not a new thing to this world and it would continue to exist as the most popular exercise in the world people engage in.

Yes many countries government frown on gambling activities and those countries also monitor the online gambling sites and those are the countries the gambling websites are restricted. But some smart gamblers used other means to bypass the process and gamble, either they went to another country which shared boarder with them and play games and go back home since they can just trek down to the place and some used VPN to bypass the protocol and gamble.

But as some uses have commented it is betting that is easier for them and not casinos.

Despite the legal restrictions on residents within their borders to gamble, there is always a way to always gamble freely. Some other people move to other countries where they are allowed to freely engage themselves in this type of liberties and others use technological gadgets to go around the existing restrictions that are put in by the governments. Every person may have his or her own reasons why people persisted with the activity whether in their place of residence regardless of the policies in place. Betting is regarded to be more attractive in comparison to casinos since it is not quite as rigid in terms of approach to playing. For some, it is a form of entertainment that can be more preferable mainly because it does not take time to prepare. It can be noted that strict regulation directly affects the scope of movement, but it does not even stop those people who are accustomed to such an approach. So, the choice is always with the person whom he wants to become or with the way he wants to lead his life.

Gamblers from countries where gambling is banned are still gambling using VPNs. That is why there is no problem in gambling. There are some who may move away from gambling platforms out of fear if they are restricted, but in most cases gamblers manage their gambling. Gambling is not legal in our country but the number of gamblers here is increasing drastically. No matter how strict the governments, it will never be possible to control the gambling activities.

Normally, gamblers would always want to cut corners when it happens that they are being restricted by their government from gambling. They would definitely bypass all protocols to make sure they have access to casino sites, which involves them using vpn and other devices that would make it difficult to be detected. But I doubt if crossing the border would be necessary for this as it has to do with international relations except in the case of it being a big game that involves a huge amount of big names are involved in it then it is known that the bet and rewards is worth such movement.

Most the casino usually frown upon using VPN or any tools to access their site, they don't do anything yet but when you win huge amount they wouldn't mind file up your casino and restrict your account from access to you, and this is their craziest part they usual do while some people do not hesitate to go lodged complaint about them how they are scammed for something that aren't meant for scamming.

Every time there are restrictions then it is actually possible to find ways of circumventing these restrictions. Of course this is something that is true in many other ways, not only making bets in the process of gambling. It is known that there is a desire to have something that has been prohibited and for this reason people tend to use one trick or the other to get the substance. Information technology has made most things easier than the conventional methods used to access systems that should not be connected. However, there a limit as to where it is still appropriate to make the effort or where the effort is too much for a given activity. If something has a very high value, then it can be anticipated that there will be an increase in efforts made on it. The only proviso is that it depends on the amount of effort that is being channelled into it.

This is one major thing that made me to stop enable my vpn as I do login some gambling site and they could detect I am using VPN which I wouldn't want to start facing issues while trying to access the site, this could lead to account closure and my funds could be halted.

Well, we are people who, when we have a tool like a VPN, we want to use it for almost everything, and it's incredible that some casinos don't accept this tool , I always like to emphasize something: when I first entered online casinos, they didn't even ask for KYC. After a while, as if by magic, they started asking for KYC, saying no to VPNs, prohibitions with countries, which doesn't make sense to me. So I think that in the future they should eliminate this because people will want their anonymity and privacy so much that there will come a time when they won't use online casinos.

I think by then only the none kyc casino could make more waves as more people might leave centralized casino to decentralized casino due to their privacy, and of course including me I need privacy but what do we do? Since most casinos request for documentation and we can't solely access the site without passing kyc to have access to some certain amount while making deposit and withdrawals.

The government you see when they come to do something they just don’t do it anyhow they do better research and better understanding to make sure what they came to do is really successful. If a certain government of a country wants to ban gambling definitely is going to call on individuals with higher and perfect knowledge so using vpn to try and practice gambling will be put into consideration by the individuals they call to ban gambling so definitely the government will find a solution for not able to use vpn to perform the gambling.

If the government body want to do some certain things that will bring progress to their country then they are really ready to spend a lot and make that possible so money isn’t there problem they will spend a lot to get rid of that dirt in their nation so using a vpn to practice gambling online isn’t excuse government will get rid of the vpn so you don’t access to any online gambling platform. When the government body’s want to get things done they will do thorough research to make that thing done very perfectly. Government can get rid of gambling or ban gambling in a country and it will really work fine that just the government. They could go to some other country get them paid for some facilities not to allow gambling on their own nation.
That just a little work for the government to do after all money isn’t there problem so if government have a case they will definitely win that just the fact.

When a policy is taken by the government they not only provide regulations but they also make various efforts in an effort to enhance the efficiency of the regulations. If there is something they desire to hammer down or to minimise in a country, they will go for the best way of achieving it. This means that the policy that is adopted is not but a product of something that was done poorly without the support of technology as well as suitably qualified professionals. Otherwise, the government will still attempt hard in order to look for the best solution in implementing anything because they have the goals that they want in this so often desired country. Thus, if the government is serious about having a change then they will make sure that they minimise on any forms of weakness that would be detrimental to that particular change.

But in most of the Muslim countries playing it is totally prohibited so people of those countries cannot directly play offline gambling. However please comment on its acceptability in your country.

Gambling is accepted in my country, when I start gambling, I go to gambling hall to gamble but as as time goes by I open several accounts in different gambling sites where I can gamble easily from the comfort of my home or anywhere I found myself, although there was a time my country upper and lower parliamentarians deliberated on restricting a particular gambling company because of their involvement in tax defaults but it was later rectified when the company involved cleared their tax.
Currently The government of my country is even very careful of taking decisions that will affect anything about gambling because many people even use gambling as a means of forgetting the hardship they are going through and many gambling companies has reduced their minimum stake to accommodate more gamblers.

With the increase of gambling platform in the world, so many countries are also benefiting from them through the tax they are paying, though still some countries do not want gambling on their country because of the reasons best known to them, however in my country we don't have a restriction on gambling and as the matter of fact the government doesn't even behave as if there is gambling in the country provided they are paying their taxes.

Though at some point I was thinking my country would start restricting people from gambling because there was a time some persons was abusing gambling because of addition and how in numerous time it resulted violence among people who were gambling on the same place, but I think the online gambling is the reason why they have not done that because people rarely go to gambling shops.

This shows that no matter how illegal something is in a region, there are few that can't just do without it, and are willing to go any length just to have or participate in it. But I guess there won't be too many cases of gambling addiction, since gamblers can't necessarily do it in the open. Ban like this will definitely reduce ones interest over time, but if I may ask, are there fines or punishment for those caught using gambling services ?, because I assume there should be, considering the fact that it has been banned.

That's one need the government needs to consider and put the casino on strict regulation, because there's no way that you can stop people from gambling no matter how hard you try. Online casino have dwarted with the government law because gamblers will use VPN to bypass and gamble.

In my country Nigeria, the law distinguish between Game of chance, which is illegal and Game of skill, which is legal. Sport betting and lottery is highly legal, infact it has a legal backing, there isn't a restriction their license, however there are some protocols and rules they have to follow for their continual operations. This rule they follow is called the NLRC rules. Examples this bet show with legal backing includes, Bet9ja, Sporty Bet etc.

In our country, gambling is completely prohibited. But still many people sit in local gambling halls and gamble there. And along with this, online gambling has come and made many people addicted to gambling. Although gambling is completely prohibited in our country, our government or legal people cannot do much about online gambling. However, if someone tries to play in a crowd of people and reports it to the administration, then legally he is given a severe punishment.

That is why, when the state starts tolerating certain type of activities and regulating it through legal means, there are many issues that can be rather subtle. We understand that this is not an issue of concordance and discordation Since It concerns itself with the current ground reality on how things are growing fast and big that instead of letting things going on, the state intervenes to regulate it. But at the same time, not everyone can remain a calm spectator to witness this take place in front of him. Some people are not open-minded as they believe that there is an area that should not be entertained. And that is not a wrong attitude. Rather from the variations of reactions one can deduce that society is still functional, society is still rational and society is still speaking. And that voice, irrespective how quiet they are, still contributes to the ongoing social participation.

Gambling is not prohibited in my country but at the same time gambling is prohibited in Islam and most of them don’t engage in gambling activities. Those that do, a quite majority of them do it without the knowledge of the family because they know how prohibited it is, so they try not to allow anyone knows they engage in that.

In gambling shops, they don’t stop you from gambling because of your religion whatsoever, what they’re most interested in is that you should be 18+ while some gambling shops don’t even use that as consideration to allow people play bet there or not. I use to assume that no country has stopped gambling if it should be, it should be countries that have strict sharia law and practicing it justly.

Gambling shops are after patronage, so most of them don’t care about your age since there is no strict regulations in some countries to actually enforce it on them, so they do and allow everyone to play when they have money to bet.

The same thing is observed in my country - I have seen when’re children who are underaged were given games by an adult to go to a gambling center to bet on it for them and those agents in charged of the shops accepted the bets without even bothering to ask where the got the tickets from or their age, as far as they are concerned the main reason for them opening their center is to make money and not for any other reason.

Things like this tend to encourage under aged gambling because if those children that were allowed to bet for someone else should hear that the individual won a considerable amount of money from that bet they too would be tempted to try the same gambling for themselves and see if they’ll be lucky to win too.

I think by then only the none kyc casino could make more waves as more people might leave centralized casino to decentralized casino due to their privacy, and of course including me I need privacy but what do we do? Since most casinos request for documentation and we can't solely access the site without passing kyc to have access to some certain amount while making deposit and withdrawals.
Well, so far it can be said that privacy and anonymity have been lost by almost 90% The few that exist and use things without KYC are very few Why? It could be that they are people who have a lot of money and don't want to be tracked, which I understand. Why don't we do the same? It's difficult, Normally, people who have little money and handle large amounts of money are not affected at all. However, they put themselves at risk by giving out data because it can be used for other purposes.

Yes many countries government frown on gambling activities and those countries also monitor the online gambling sites and those are the countries the gambling websites are restricted. But some smart gamblers used other means to bypass the process and gamble, either they went to another country which shared boarder with them and play games and go back home since they can just trek down to the place and some used VPN to bypass the protocol and gamble.

But as some uses have commented it is betting that is easier for them and not casinos.
Our country is a Muslim-majority country. Near about 92% people Muslim in our country. So gambling banned in our country. But gambling is running here hidely. Here regularly government banned huge gambling site. But now a days people’s are very smart. They are searching way to access that's gambling site. Even they are using VPN to access that's gambling site. And finally we can tell although gambling is banned in our country but most of the people are involved with gambling.

If the government wants to do this, it will have to work hard and consider it. And I don't think that no matter how hard you try, you can never stop anything online or get people who are addicted to gambling off the hook. Yes, if they think it's their fault and they stop it, it might decrease, but it's something the government can never control. We've seen online casinos fight government laws because they will use VPNs to gamble. So I don't think it's going to be that easy to stop.

That is, with development of KYC and many identification requirements there is indeed no way people can keep themselves unidentified. A person or entity that can pay their way and remains relatively unseen still do so, the major reason being, to avoid being followed for reasons such as security or to protect their assets. However, every time we provide personal data, we are, in fact, giving consent for use that can be improper, unknown to us. In this interconnected world even if one thinks and feels outside of it, one becomes a victim to such data and its usages later for various other and sometimes more damaging purposes.

Identity theft and sales are something we should extra careful because things are happening nowadays since most gambling site doesn't care about their users security purposes. And of course who wouldn't be that jealous of their documentation because they can detects or factor out what they are using their information submitted on the gambling site for, we may try our best to know how to curb out these things nowadays.

Privacy is an aspect that should always be protected at all times because there are many people out there who may wish to use the information for their own gains. This is so due to the various places that do not effectively protect users information when transacting or even when playing. Selecting a platform that is without a doubt secure is the ideal way of avoiding such complications in the future. Also, appreciation of the fact that one has to protect the personal details, for instance, it is advisable to provide as many details as may be required only, and through encryption technology is also very vital in checking on identity theft cases, which are on the rise.

The only way is not to do it and refrain from playing, because in all casinos they ask for the blessed KYC, otherwise, well, it is not possible, or the other is to go to a physical casino and play from there, many good, great players did not return to online casinos just for that, and I understand them, if I had a lot of money I would not risk it either, now, the other is to trust casinos that are merely reliable and have a very high reputation.

You know, must people usually avoid going to a physical casino to gamble rather they want to remain unseen or unveil because because in real life casino or physical casinos they sees those who are gambling over there as an irresponsible people who are just useless and doesn't want to be that productive to themselves, therefore they urges to remain dark where people wouldn't be that easily to detect and factor them out how they are gambling.

Yeah from a Bangladeshi perspective gambling is totally illegal both online and offline. The law and religion both go against it so most people avoid it but still some people secretly playing. Its risky though because if caught there can be legal action also from a social point of view it is not accepted and seen as a bad habit

Questions to those, who live in a country where gambling is illegal. How did you get introduced to gambling? How do you gamble if it is illegal? I am not asking about methods (offline grey casinos, VPN usage and etc), but how you feel when you know it is illegal. Are you stressed? Because, I dont know, if police caught you gambling, will you get a severe punishment? Or gambling is illegal only «on the paper»? It illegal, everyone gamble and authorities close eyes on that.

To gamble in my country is not against the law, but you must be able to abide by it's guidelines and part of which is to gamble responsibly, you should not cause trouble at the cause of gambling or be an irresponsible type causing chaos at the cause, because some legal actions may be taken against any gambler who is found with any form of violence at the cause of gambling, if the country we are does not stops us, then we shouldn't by our own hands do that.

I've some good friends from Bangladesh who gamble regularly. I don't if there's any legal issues they are going to face or not but so far they're doing it without any worries and they enjoy it fully. So, I guess in that country there's no hard and fast rule for gamblers.

Earlier it was not very strict but now it is becoming very strict. If the police see you gambling then you will definitely be arrested. Currently many big influencers of our country have been arrested for promoting this gambling advertisement. So it is okay to say that it is illegal in our country.

that is quite extreme is it due to religion or what? i feel like there should at least be some reasonable basis why the police would be so fast in arresting someone for gambling

i am quite curious since you said it was not strict but now it seems a whole lot stricter so i wonder what changed and why did this happen in your country? and is it effective? are your people actually not gambling anymore or are they just being careful as to not be arrested by the authorities?

Many people in Bangladesh participate in gambling, so there is a possibility of being prosecuted for openly gambling, but in most cases, police harassment does not occur. Anyone who wants to can participate and anyone who doesn't can't. However, due to the high popularity of online gambling, there are usually no legal problems in most cases.

I have done a lot of research to find that many countries do not accept gambling which means you cannot gamble directly even if you want to. But online gambling is now running in all countries and they can easily gamble online while maintaining privacy. But in most of the Muslim countries playing it is totally prohibited so people of those countries cannot directly play offline gambling. However please comment on its acceptability in your country.
I guess that would be for some religious countries where they are very strict again gambling. Well it's not restricted in my country as we have a lot of betting shops as well. The only thing I know might be restricted is under age gambling. Though they can fully cub it, but it's strictly against the rule here in my country.

For me those things are not pleasant, a government cannot subjugate a people, there must be freedom in every sense, if a person wants to gamble then they can do it, it does not harm anyone, before they said that casinos were bad only because the people became addicted, but they do not know that the person responsible for the addiction is that same person, then it is something that does not make sense that at this point in life there are countries with those dictatorships.

However, general freedom is very precious and people should not be deprived of their rights to make decisions that pertain to their individual choices such as gambling. However, here one should remember that the role of the state shall not only be a limiting one but also informative about the outcome of the choices that are made. While it can be said that gambling can be classified as an entertainment for some people, the influence of this activity on people and society in general can be much more serious if necessary measures are not taken. What may have to be underscored is the duty of people to keep their choices restrained with a system that would effectively deter and not necessarily restrict.

To some points, maybe the country's leaders are trying to protect its citizens from gambling addiction or something related, and that could be the reasons behind the restrictions and ban. Online gambling has made gamblers bye pass some country's rules and restrictions placed on gambling. In my country, it is not restricted by anyone, and for the online gambling, it is free as bird. If not for the recent ban uplift from Bitcoin/Crypto currencies, gambling sites has never faced any form of ban, restriction or regulations before to the little best of my knowledge, related to gambling.

In this case the problem is not a simple one. On the one hand, the fight against the further development of illicit gambling is the correct decision to reduce the negative consequences of such activity. And, just for the lost tax motives, as if such gambling operations have to be kept, I believe that is the wrong rationale. If there are politicians involved or even having some shares in this business, it is apparent to infringe the public policy because it vitiates the credibility of the politicians. Policies on political and business circles should not be just economic in nature, law making bodies and individuals in society must also be ever determined to eradicate the evils concerning legal gambling, and the policies set must indeed should mean business for the goodness of society.

If you are right, well although I start from the fact that we as humans have the right to do and play in whatever we consider, governments should never interfere in the entertainment that human beings have, unless it is to do bad things like drugs and among other things, but a casino is a business, it is a means of adult entertainment, that is reason enough not to prohibit it, but each country has its rules and its way of doing things.

It's simply, don't be a corrupt official, like mayors and governors and police and this illegal gambling could be eradicated in our country. The thing is that they are the protector and they are in the payroll of this crime syndicates.

And with that, no one will be arrested, except for the small fish. But the operator behind can't be touch by the police because of the protection by the higher ups including generals.

This is a very accurate statement I have learned that one can never win the battle against this vice due to the fact that officials who are supposed to fight this vice are involved in the vice. When the authorities and the officials are involved in a criminal syndicate, it will become challenging to promote justice. What you said is correct that most of the time only the small fish is caught while the big fish is set free to go. My personal view is that change can only occur if there is a desire from within the institution to rid itself out of bad eggs. More support especially from the community is needed so that it does not become a norm for girls to be violated and face the consequences alone.

Most countries that are more interested in making money from its people will are the ones that will take a look at the taxes these gambling sites are putting into the country's treasury. Politicians always have a part to play in situations like this, while those who made their money with some dirty touch wants the gambling business to continue so as to stay behind the shadows.

Countries that are most and major concern is for the betterment of its citizens will ban gambling or place a big tax fee on them for them to go away or stay and struggle with the levy placed on them.
