this does sound funny but what do you do if it turns out that your culture requires you to play gambling?
I will follow that because that is the culture that requires me to play gambling. But I will always remember that I do not have to use too much money because that is the only requirement for my culture. And if that is enough, I will stop it as soon as possible and will not try to gamble for more because I know the risk of playing gambling for too long. Although that is a culture, we have our decision to stop and not risk more money to fill our satisfaction because we do not want to be addicted to gambling.

In my opinion, nowadays you are speaking in terms of your own culture (the culture and mentality of the country in which you were born). 

I will give a specific example.... 

There are nations on planet Earth, in whose culture it is customary to spend a lot of money on wedding celebrations.  The wedding itself lasts several days.  Hundreds and thousands of guests are invited to the celebration.  The most expensive wines and products are bought.  The budget for this wedding is huge.  The groom borrows a very large amount of money and pays this debt all his life.  Logically, this is not rational. 

But from the point of view of the representative of this particular people, this is a custom that cannot be violated.
I came from a country where Religious Marriage is important, People nowadays are becoming practical with their life choices, The Sociology about belief's and tradition is evolving. This is why some people in my country choose civil wedding that is relatively cheap over than religious marriage which needed a huge sum of money. This is also applicable to gambling, Not everyone follows customs and tradition. I have a Chinese friend who don't gamble and I don't know if he know this culture of them playing gamble during Chinese new year since he only watches me to play and whenever I invited him to join, He is always saying that he don't know and don't want to gamble.
