Unfortunately a lot of the new generation(s) gamble online, available 24 hours a day. And many lose not just a few baht but mass large debts, borrowing from relatives and loan sharks.
It's a kind of unseen disease, the gambler doesn't rapidly lose his/ her looks ( until the loan sharks sorts them out), unlike the methamphetamine and serious lao khao consumers who show obvious signs of wear and tear after a while.
