The proliferation of online gambling in recent years has opened a new era for the gambling industry. According to statistics, there are about 800 companies in the world, with servers in 70 different countries providing more than 4,000 virtual slot machines, 600 virtual casino points, 300 bingo sites, 260 sports betting sites and 240 online poker points. With gambling increasingly legalized in many countries, this can be considered a modern entertainment game.  This is the day the game industry attracts many workers (directly or indirectly) and generates a large amount of revenue. With the legalization of some online gambling, the number of players has also increased significantly. And this is considered a quite popular recreational game in some countries.

This is the day the gaming industry attracts many workers (directly or indirectly) and creates a large source of revenue. With the legalization of some online gambling activities, the number of players has also increased significantly. And this is considered a quite popular entertainment game in some countries.

Besides the positive factors, this modern form of entertainment is showing a higher addictive potential than traditional gambling. Many witnesses of online gambling addiction said they had completely lost control of their mind and were driven by an irrepressible desire. It is easy to access the game at any time and the gap between real money and virtual money on the computer is quite large. Players are easily fooled by the numbers on the screen. They do not have the feeling of winning or losing money compared to when holding real money, so players feel like this is just a game.

Besides, online gambling games do not require one person to observe the other, so they become very simple. Players seem to be absorbed in the virtual world and forget about the people around them, the games continue one after another, so they are more likely to become addicted to games on the screen. What is online gambling in your personal opinion? Are your feelings different from when you play traditional gambling? Does it affect your gambling habits when you play online? Please share your experiences here.

While some gamblers show unreasonable demeanour, for most gamblers, gambling is only a plain entertainment.

Most players have a stern of losses thresholds, that they will never cross when engaging in gambling.
