I disagree since the virtual games could be played at all times and the ease of accessibility may cause difficulty to quit on some individuals. With live sports there are natural breaks between games whereas with slots and casino games there are nothing and there is always an urge to play. Discipline is essential because of that. It does not take long to get pathological once the emotions get involved and start chasing a loss or placing more bets than expected. Gambling is just supposed to be done as a form of fun and entertainment not as a method or making quick fortune but one should learn when to stop otherwise the consequences can be disastrous.
It's okay you have your own opinion, but, I say "if you (players) can't control yourself, don't force yourself to play slots". To be clear, this means there are serious consequences that can lead to financial ruin, as it can lead to the belief that winning small bets will lead to winning quickly by increasing bets. So, what's the difference between this and your opinion that it's harder to stop playing virtual games? It has a similar meaning, albeit with slightly different pronunciation.
I've never played any virtual games and have no plans whatsoever of ever playing it, seeing how this game is destroying alot of great destinies here in my country, from what I've personally gathered as information and learned also, virtual games are much more addicting that the normal betting on sports games we all are also familiar with.
I can liken or place virtual games in the same category as slot games, casinos games and so on, because like the other user have said or mentioned, this games have no break, a gambler can sit and play any of this types of games for hours without standing up, and the worst of it all being that as normal sports betting is seasonal, virtual games and slots games have no season, they are always available and are highly addictive without implementation of proper self consciousness and control.
