I wonder why these two brothers receive different impressions when both are running a gambling platform, honestly, I prefer my friends and relatives to bet on the lotto but I advise them to be careful when playing in a cockpit, because in a cockpit arena, you can wipe out all your money and you end up empty-handed because the games are continuous you have no control and you are tempted to continue playing or lose everything whereas in Lotto you can allocate your bets.
Do you have the same situation like this in your country where gambling operators are not getting the same treatment?
One can lose a fortune in any form of gambling. I don't consider any form of gambling less risky or less expensive. It is the behaviour of the gambler that will determine how much he loses and not the type of gambling. Many people have lost so much money in the lotto because they were not able to control themselves and I am sure there are also responsible cockpit bettors.
Another determining factor is how much you place on bets per time. One can bet heavily and lose all in the lotto while I might use small bets consistently in the cockpit which will make me lose small. Anybody who has a negative view of a betting operator because of the kind of gambling he offers is not well-informed about gambling. I can only have such a negative view if the type of gambling is illegal or promotes violence and other criminal activities. I will not bet on cockfighting because I see it as inhumane, cruel and barbaric.
