Recently I decided to watch a video on YouTube about gambling addiction about how different guys fight it. And what's most interesting is that I came across one video, watching which for some reason I had the feeling that this video was more promoting the casino than talking about the downsides of it.
Despite the fact that the main presenter of the video and the guest hero talked about the disadvantages of gambling addiction, but there were a lot of video inserts of guys winning huge multipliers and jumping happily in front of the webcam, and there were a lot of such videos. And in the end, I got the feeling that, rather, here the casino was shown in a positive way, and this was the secret message of this video.
I think it was sponsored by the casino.
What do you think about this?

This may well be true, because, as you write, the video often showed big wins in online casinos. What if this could not provoke other gamblers to play? Guys go to YouTube to watch videos to gain additional motivation to stop gambling. But suddenly they watched the video and watched the trigger moments, winnings. Of course, this should not be shown in such videos about how difficult it is to quit gambling. I am sure that this video clearly had the intention of reminding former gamblers again about how cool and fast you can earn money in gambling.
