That is true, but sometime when someone is a gambler they will definitely close themselve a little and keep it a secret that they are a gambler except from some friends who do the same activity especially we know that sometimes in some areas gambling is still considered taboo and the stigma is still considered bad for some people so keeping it a secret is the best situation so as not to be considered negative.
This is what actually backfires because we should try to rely on ourselves as much as possible to control our gambling activities because after all this is a situation that must be felt if the secrecy of the gambling we do wants to remain safe .
Although in the end it is not wrong if we really want to gamble but still as long as gambling is considered bad and even something that is considered despicable such things cannot be minimized apart from us who must be able to limit it.
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.
That's the point friends because after all, by looking at the stigma that occurs now, especially in some areas that are culturally and religiously strong, sometimes they will consider gambling as something despicable, including in the area where I live now, which makes this complicated if in the end we show ourselves too much even though on the other hand actually in this case we are aware that as long as it does not bother other people and does not interfere with their comfort, I don't think it is a problem but everyone's opinion is still different and gambling will still be considered a bad thing in the end.
As for showing off the profits from gambling actually this kind of thing is sometimes like a trend because we are proud of the winnings we have even though it looks quite silly but believe it or not many people do that

and I agree actually when keeping gambling a secret especially with the ease of today's online sites for gambling then indeed we should be benefited by it because we don't have to bother to come and sit in the casino (showing ourselves to gamble).
