Sometimes people are always addicted to playing gambling online and this has made them loss alot of funds, due to always topping up theire casino account with there debit card when they loose. and this usually makes them exhaust all there funds.

While those people playing offline in casino halls play with only the little money they have at hand, and that will reduce the risk of over spending. So now my question is this

Playing online or offline gambling which is more preferable in terms of risk reduction?

Online and offline gambling both have the risk of addiction if you cannot manage your emotions well, especially if your mindset in gambling is wrong, not just for fun but to find your main income.

However, personally, in my opinion, there is the potential to become addicted to gambling when gambling offline. Because here you are influenced by the people around you, especially if there are people who like to tease you when you want to stop, making you want to gamble again. Unlike online gambling, you will not be influenced by the people around you because you can play alone in your bedroom or bathroom. If you want to stop, just stop, because the atmosphere of playing online and offline gambling is very different in terms of its emotional impact.

It is difficult to know which could offer the conditions which are the most favorable to develop some issues, since even if what you say is true, at the same time if people that know you saw you gambling at an offline casino all the time, they could quickly come to the conclusion you have a problem and try to help you.

However when you are gambling online most likely you will do this through your smartphone, but unless someone tried to pry on your activities they will have no way to know what you are doing, and they may assume that you are just talking with someone or playing a video game, never guessing that you have been gambling for too long already and that you have problems controlling yourself.
