As what the question is, Do you think governments should set limits on how much one can gamble daily?

For example, in Finland:

Veikkaus has the following compulsory loss limits in place applicable to all of their games (excluding Casino Helsinki): €500/day; €2,000/month; and €15,000/year.

Should this is be good deterrent to at least minimized gambling in a certain country? Or does it force gamblers to uses illegal means or even travel outside of the country that has this strict law to continue with their gambling?

Rather than banning gambling altogether, such a restriction seems reasonable and practical. Perhaps the government's decision will help many gamblers, and this could actually be a good thing. If successful results are achieved, and I believe they will be, this approach is a better approach than a ban. There are indeed many countries where gambling is prohibited, and they should follow Finland's decision.
