Increasing the minimum deposit amount is unlikely to help in the fight against gambling addiction. This will only embitter the poor and will be perceived as another mockery of the rich against the poor. At the same time, addicted gamblers will come up with ways to circumvent the restrictions. Up to the point that, for example, they can make a collective deposit and then choose one who will press the button in the slot while the others are watching the game... Such a restrictive measure as the deposit threshold can reduce the influx of newcomers to the casino, but in general, prohibitive measures do not work well if the root cause is not eliminated. Especially if the population was previously accustomed to gambling.
