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

For example, in Finland:

Quote
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?


This might not be entirely be a bad idea but when this is done its completely going to change what gambling is all about. Gambling has a lot to do with personal choice which means that a gambler decides however you wants to gamble, it's left for him or her to have their own limits. Putting a restriction or setting a limit for gamblers might take the fun out of it even though it might be a way to deal with irresponsible gambling

It’s a loss limits. There’s no fun at all if you are losing already big time since it only means gambler doesn’t have proper bankroll management in able to encounter this increasing loss situation.

I agree on this loss limits but I’m sure it can be easily bypassed by various method available because casino operates online.

If they can implement this mandatory I will be happy to follow this limit instead of setting my own loss limit which for sure influenced by my own greediness.
