Have you known that there is an age restriction in gambling? But it is varied among the countries in the world. I have just checked in wikipedia that commonly someone can play gambling starting from the age of 15/16/18/19/20/21 years. It depends on where he lives...

But the question is, how about age restrictions in online gambling? Gambling in physical casinos have a lot security measures and assurance that their players are on a legal age or accompanied with an adult, yet can we do the same restrictions on online gambling? I just doubt that as most and even any one of any age can play casinos online and easily use other people especially their relative's identity for the KYC (if ever), and then they can play whenever they like.

BTW, We all know that wikipedia is not a good source of information, hence malawi having a 5 year old restriction is just unbelievable.
