I think it is important to keep gambling activities a secret, because after all gambling will always receive a negative stigma from all groups, regardless of the environment and applicable rules. Gambling has been around since a long time ago, and society response has always been the same, enough leaving only one or two close friends to know exactly who we really are, and what we do every day. Gambling requires money or initial capital, hiding gambling activities provides an opportunity to earn income.
Apart from that, many people know the habits of a gambler when they win, and tell everyone that he has won a bet. It sounds a little silly, but most of the gamblers secrets are known by many people this way. On the other hand, hiding gambling habits can maintain the trust of those closest to you, especially family. Currently, it is very easy to hide this habit, because almost all games can be accessed via smartphone, without the need to visit gambling places such as casinos or similar.
No matter how tightly we hide our gambling activities, it will definitely be seen by neighbors or others. because in gambling, our money turnover will be very fast. It could be that in one day we suddenly become rich, and it could also be that in one day we experience financial problems.
If other people are sensitive to our condition like that, of course they will think how can we get so much money? Or even though yesterday people had a lot of money, today why are they closing themselves off and asking for help borrowing money? Surely that will be a big question for everyone who knows us. and in the end they find out our real activities.
