Do casinos profit from addiction, or do they truly promote "responsible gaming" as they claim?
As what we have seen, casinos are profiting from gamblers who can't control themselves and play as much money as they can and think that they can bring the house down. But we all know that the longer we play, the higher the chance that we are going to lose anyway.
Probably there are casinos that really have programs like self-exclusion and outright banning of players and promoting 'responsible gaming'.
But you have to ask yourself, If casinos eliminated all problem gamblers, would they still be profitable?
Even if some gamblers can control themselves while playing, they'll stop once they start losing, knowing they've already lost. That's why having discipline
and self-control is a huge advantage for gamblers.
Even though some players can take home their winnings, the majority of people in casinos still lose.
That's why the casino itself always wins in the end.
