Gambling Or Game
What really is gambling? When you mention about the word gambling, everyone would think of Mac Poker, Blackjack, or any other casino games. To many people gambling is bad. If it is something bad, why are countries building it and why are nations encouraging it, and yet prohibiting it and telling people through various media that gambling is no good, you should kick the bad habit. Isn't it very contradictory?
My mother had just came back from Genting Highlands. She never gets tired of the place. She loves to go casino. That is the only game she knows how to 'play'. To the illiterate, what sort of computer games do they know? To my mother, playing casino games is her main entertainment. Is that gamble or is that leisure hobby? Of course it is gambling, when you are dealing with real money. But she is not addictive. She is not a gambler that indulge in gambling and forget all her duties and purpose in her life. She worked hard. Out of the whole year, she hardly got any 'leaves'. She hardly had any kind of enjoyment. She used to play Mahjong. She is very good at Mahjong. This got to show that she has 'brain'. If she ever has a chance to atttend school, she would have a different life today. She is intelligent and hardworking. But she is born in poor family and that is her fate. She was not sent to school.
Gambling, like money is neither good nor bad. It all depends on how you look at it. If you regard it as a game and nothing more, you are fine with it. Just like my mother. Her main aim is not to WIN, but the main aim is for LEISURE and PLEASURE. It is the thrill, the process of playing the game that she desire. She always LOSE when she goes Genting Highlands. She also know that she must leave when she wins. But she just wants to PLAY.
For people who are illiterate, like my mother, online computer games is definitely not for them. For these people, they would rather spend their money, travel to any nearest land based casino to have some fun. Soon Singapore would have its own casino. These people would have a chance to go to their own local casino. There is no need to travel to far places anymore. For people who are educated, there are so many varieties of games to choose on the internet. Besides Online Casino Bonuses, some people just enjoy the thrill of winning. To them, it is an achievement for them.
