Re: Gambling is a choice.

We have the choice of making decisions of what we want and what we don't want. There are many ways to make decisions in especially choosing the kind of bet we want to go for base on our experience and interest. We should always make decisions on going bets that will give us profits and not make us lose big when we gamble.

Some gamblers are influenced and they don't chose gambling naturally. Either influenced by parents as a child or influenced by friends or peer groups as a youth. Even if you are not directly influenced, the activities happening in your environment will greatly impact you.
It is only few that makes the decision of betting by themselves. Note that when you are lured into betting in the early time, whatever decisions you are making will feel original to you but they are still influenced.
For Op, what you explained above is fraud and it is greed that leads to such type of fraud.

Being influenced in doing gambling activities by someone close to you is very possible and might cause the start of being a gambler but also remember casino that offers a very good offer to start your gambling journey. There are also social media influencers that promotes gambling games. In fact there are streamers in my country that don't really promote casinos but today so many online game streamers in my country is promoting it because of a hefty pay by casinos. So many people including minors are drawn into gambling which alarmed our government but sadly, even if the casino is now closed because of not abiding the law, the influencers promoted it didn't even experience jail time.

There is more to this than you know, some gambling influencers are not into gambling, and I have heard that online casinos pay better money to influencers to advertise their platform on their channel and social media for them, not all influencers are into the game themselves, they are doing this in the most safety way, they don't gamble but they make money from spreading gambling information, and most winnings from them are not real, mostly they are not the real players.

There is a lot of doubts and controversy for the gambling influencers but I think that most of them to be avid gamblers as by playing gambling all that time you stream through your channels it is only normal for such persons to be attracted to try gambling themselves.I agree most of their winnings are not real as most people even super rich ones do not bet with 10.000 dollars per a single bet but yeah they do a great job to big casinos and casinos pay them hefty commissions if they put their referral links there for people to join such casinos.

I also believe the same, also if they are influencers and have a community it is very easy for them to make money quickly and that same money is given to the community just by following them, liking them, being on their streaming, all these things are like that, lkos influencers make a living by saying and doing a lot of Nonsense, but they are very stupid to play, what some of them do is take advantage of all these things, that's why I don't follow any type of influencers because for me what they always do is look for Money with their direction of doing things on the Web , things that as I said before I find to be quite silly , plus they don't Know how to play in Casinos.
