There’s nothing really new about this type of gambling since it’s essentially a lottery game, and we even have our own version run by the state... I don’t see anything wrong with it as it’s not the addictive kind of gambling. Lotteries are more about betting small and dreaming big, hoping to win millions.
For countries like the one mentioned in the OP, where the economy is stable, people are more willing to spend a little for a chance at the jackpot, especially if the lottery serves a good purpose. This Dutch Postcode Lottery is operated by the Postcode Lottery Group, a private entity in the Netherlands. Maybe their country doesn’t have a state-sponsored lottery, unlike here in the Philippines, where we have the PCSO, though it’s been involved in controversies recently.
And this really raises doubts about the credibility of the lottery. Good thing I still remember my previous post about this.

This picture below with the woman holding a check is the winner of "P43 million lotto 6/42 jackpot prize on Wednesday, Jan. 17.".
That's almost $800k if converted in USD.
As we can see in the picture, it appears to be just an edited version, casting doubt on whether there was a genuine winner or if corrupt officials inside are attempting to claim the victory using that picture as evidence.
What's your thought about that picture, is it real or edicted?
How about in your area? How reputable are your state-sponsored casinos?
