In some countries gambling such as cockfighting has become a tradition that has been going on for a long time from time to time, but this type of gambling is a very worrying bet because it smells of torturing living things (animals), in my opinion in the modern era like now this type of cockfighting gambling has is no longer relevant because now there are so many online gambling games available that we can play, I agree with you that law enforcement in all countries are trying to stop this gambling.
But it still happens in some countries and they still do it in hidden places. This type of gambling can interest gamblers and wherever it is, they will know it because they can get the location from their other friends. Even though there is a lot of online gambling now, I don't think it will eliminate traditional gambling because many people still play traditional gambling. This requires hard work from law enforcement in all countries because this traditional gambling network can still develop amidst the rise of online gambling.
actually there are more cock fighting happens outside the legalities , I mean there are so many guerilla cock fighting coming from every part of Asian countries , I should Know because I am still witnessing this till now.
that cops are being Paid upfront just not to disturb those betting meaning there are so much corruption happening from this and I believe that this is a bread and butter of many people from legal to illegal .
The corrupt police will cover up the illegal gambling that is taking place in the place because it is their extra money that keeps the illegal gambling going. If we talk about Asian countries, traditional gambling is still running with the support of those corrupt police and even if there are clean police who try to find gambling places, they will not be able to find and clean up the roots. What the clean police have to do is investigate who the corrupt police officers are and give them harsh punishments so that other police officers will think again if they want to commit corruption. And it's not just cockfighting on the list of online gambling, but there are also lottery or traditional card games used to play gambling.
