have you ever been to prison? it is a tough life in there. no matter what you did or whether you were wrongly accused for something, prison is not for everyone. it is obviously lonely as you gets separated away from your family. it can get boring, not being able to do what you want.

but gambling, even tho is prohibited, is often what entertains most prisoners. there is no actual money in prison so they often exchange in other forms of currencies like food or smuggled items. even their way of gambling is smuggled. cards, dice and even information from the outside are all smuggled.

the reason why gambling is prohibited tho is because it might escalate into fights if someone for example loses and doesn't pay their debts

just shows how gambling will always exist anywhere

It is a bit different when compared to prisons in my country, here it is common knowledge that prisoners can gamble in prison, whether it is like gambling or betting with other prisoners or online, but it is important to know that prisoners here can only do it according to their ability to pay for the freedom in these activities, so it will be different if a prisoner is in a state of inability or poverty which does not get certain freedoms, and has limitations like the prisoner you mentioned. Personally, I have never been a prisoner, but stories like the ones I told are already common knowledge and are circulating everywhere, including being told several times by former prisoners who have been involved in gambling activities, and various other things.

Let me get you correctly, did you say that prisoners in your country can gamble online? Or were you just using that as an example to explain what you were trying to say?

I don't know if there are prisons any where in the world where prisoners are allowed access to online activities, that would be awesome and I believe that prisoners can even live a hundred years in prison and won't feel that loneliness that goes with being in prison.
This is especially for those who love the internet and take it as their second home like my very self 😊
But I highly doubt any way, if such a prison exists any where though, as it's possible that even some prisoners can be in there and be making good money for themselves, living life like normal to be there lol 😁

Well, maybe you don't know about my country, and I think it is all because of the rampant corruption in this country, and even my country is one of the countries with a high corruption ratio, so you can imagine the possibility of something like that happening (gambling in prison). Even if you want to find out more, some YouTube videos from a famous interviewer, she once covered a prison for a prisoner who had quite complete facilities, so that alone can prove that what I said is true, or if you have friends who are here, you can try asking about it, and I am sure that he knows about it.
