Here in our place, any physical form of gambling is not allowed (only in our city because in nearby cities it's not prohibited). If you're caught playing you will have to pay the fine or worse you'll get imprison. Thus the only way to gamble is through online since it's not restricted.
but the truth is? there are still illegal gambling happening or those underground gambling houses ?
I tried living in a place that had the same rules and laws but we still able to gamble in our own little secret ways lol.
I'm not a core gambler and though I set aside a money meant for leisure monthly, it doesnt mean I cant stop my gambling activity if it's already prohibited. I only gamble for fun thus it's also not hard to stop if necessary because there are also other ways to entertain ourselves.
good for you mate and I salute in that stand , very rare that a gambler can just stop any time he wanted.
