You are a core gambler,I mean you have a reserved or particular time that you use in gambling everyday, just the way some of us are,we even add gambling expenses to our monthly budget because we gamble to entertain ourselves.
A new government came into power, and enacted a law that nobody should gamble anymore in the country i.e gambling becomes illegal. Will you just behave yourself and abide to this new law that is depriving you from having fun as a good citizen ? or will you ignore the law and keep on gambling since there are online casinos that you can gamble secretly with your mobile phones with out no one knowing ?
I think other than having an adequate time, a core gambler also have a good knowledge, skills and a good amount of capital. In short they are more superior than a common gambler. Playing gambling only for the sake of being entertained is not wrong and it's also not money consuming so feel free to include this in your monthly budget but if ever my country banned gambling then obviously I will follow the rules because I am not one of those who are desperate and will do risky things only to get the things that they wanted. I don't think online casinos are accessible because our ISPs will also banned it. Maybe some can use a VPN but it's still risky.
I will also follow your opinion, though I sometimes enjoy betting with some of my favorite sports but if that being declared not to be legal anymore I will follow that rules, I understand that there are someone who really into this kind of vices and they will try harder just to continue gambling even the government prohibit any participation from anyone residing from their jurisdictions.
Some may use VPN, which adds another risk aside from the gambling itself. You don't know when the gambling site will declare it illegal and they will freeze the account.
The adjustment always depends on how a gambler takes the responsibilities over the risk that he might be facing after.
