This post was inspired by a thread I saw on the social media platform X which says that
betting companies are not your friend, their apps are designed to keep you broke and addiected". Well that's his opinion but left for me I don't support that statement cause those companies are not illegal, and they don't force customers to patronize them, moreover if they want you broke they won't advise you to gamble responsibly. Also, gambling is a game of luck and if every gambler acknowledge that and avoid being too greedy, then gamble in a responsible way, I don't think they'll go broke or get addicted. What's your opinion, do you support his statement?
That is one of their memo but this memo is a hidden one. Who doesn't like to bring their customers close to their business but the way they want you addicted is to make sure you like what you are seeing. If a casino is doing numbers, let's say 1M turn over if players in a month and 200k wager at least a total bet of $1000 in a month, that alone is $200m, if half lost the money that's $100m going to the casino pocket, we have not talk about other players. However, let's say the following month the number reduced by 50%, do you think the casino is going to be happy.
The system is designed in a way they want players to keep coming back to gamble more and more. Why do you think some casino come back with an aggressive marketing after a long time of promotions. Once a casino makes the number or their targeted customers, they lay low but as soon as revenue decline, you see a new pattern of ways to bring players back to base. That's when you see welcome bonuses flying around just to encourage people to gamble.
