Could be in any context. I do it a little on UFC fights but that's a relatively low amount and I can afford I to lose any time I do. It seems like it's becoming a really wide spread problem though, at least in the US. At the same time I don't see why it should be illegal. Granted I also don't think any drug should be illegal.

Personally, I think it's a total waste of money and addicting for some people. I don't think it should be illegal, but I do think that corpo gambling should be. Sportsbooks and their ilk are cancer, and gambling should not be something you can easily blow all of your money on from the comfort of your toilet.

    Yeah having it as accessible as an app is really dangerous for some people. Shocking how much damage you can do with just your phone now.
