I was hooked on the pokies for a long time, hence i'm so glad they're not in Thailand. The thinking is that your next spin will get that big pay .... and then you get nothing. I do know some thais who spend alot on football & lottery tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradiston Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I don't get it. If they're online websites, how come they've got 120 million in cash kicking around? You mean they regularly empty the mule accounts the hapless punters are paying into? Why? Why not go straight to coin or whatever? And buying such visible assets? Insane!

Gambling scams can be devastating to people. People who do this should be immediately put in jail. But there are legal methods for such games. Everything is mostly fair there. There are a lot of pirate games and people lose there. I recently read about no deposit poland, found https://casinosanalyzer.com/bonuses-by-countries/poland-pol for this. Not a bad option in my opinion. By the way, in many countries there is legalization for this. You can definitely trust them. In fact, everyone thinks they can win. There are many schemes for getting any person hooked. It’s just that at first they let you win a lot, the person thinks, well, I’m lucky and continues to play. He bets more and more, but loses. He just has hope that he will be lucky again like in the beginning. Edited February 26 by markhines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
