Chinese New Year is coming. As everyone know that Chinese like to gamble, so it is the chance for online gambling website to catch gambler's attention. Those website will offer different kind of stuffs like free chips, membership or free gift. When people sign in to the website, they are required to fill in their personal particular and credit card number. When they lose a lot of money in the website, the website will auto charge to the credit card and when they can't afford to pay the credit card bill, they will start to borrow money from someone.

I'm sure everyone will always see news about loan shark. When a gambler can't afford to pay credit card bill and they unable to borrow money from relatives or friends, they will borrow money from loan shark. Loan shark will always say that they able to help u solve your financial problem but they will charge u some interest. Their interest is very high but a gambler still will borrow money from them as they think they will able to pay back to loan shark in future. But when they realize that they unable to pay the money to loan shark, is it too late for them to regret. Loan shark will always disturb your family members, beat you or make u can't live comfortable. When come to the worst, loan shark will kill your family member or make them suffer or even rape.

Everyone please think of your family when you are gambling as is it not your problem only when you owe someone money but it is your family problem.

Disadvantages of online gambling

The disadvantage of online gambling is that there is a chance that the player will not be paid for the winnings that were earned. Online gambling do this in the hopes that the person will lose it all later in the succeeding rounds. When you lost, is definately your credit card or auto transfer from you bank account will debit your money but when you win, is not probably you will get pay for the winnings.

Another problem of downloading such software is that there is chances that there is a virus that may also affect one’s computer. Downloading such online gambling software that the chances of getting virus is very high. There are some virus that you cannot heal with normal antivirus software, and you need to format the whole computer that cause you money and time and maybe your important file will be corrupt.

Some people think that gambling is the easiest way out of being in the slums. However, the odds of losing in gambling are much higher than that of winning. The online gambling is control by the owner. For example, they are many people buying casino NO.3 then the computer will not spin to this NO. This is all control by them that's why the changes of losing is higher than winning.

Any other disadvantages of online gambling that i din't mention above, please do leave a comment for me. Thanks

Experience On Online Gambling

Is online gambling good?On my opinion, online gambling is a no good activity. I remember my first time join online gambling is during FIFA World Cup 2006. During the first match which is Germany vs Costa Rica, the odds for the match was 1:0. My friend told me that bet on Germany sure win. At first Irejected but at last I have placed my bet because he allow me to bet for just RM30 and when result out just pay him if Ihave lose. The next day he give me RM28 and say that Ii have win. I am so happy then Ii cant stop for continue betting.

During the night,there are few more match is going on. I decided to bet RM50 for 2 match as I think is so easy to win the money. My friend give me a account on a online gambling website and tell me to bet there myself. Then I go to the website and placed my bet for the 2 match, I feel I am very lucky as I keep winning money. As I am lucky enough,I bet through out a week but of course I will losing some money but I still earning money.

Because of I have earn a lot of money, I decided to bet RM300 for a match. Unfortunately I lose the match. I feel that I will win next match so I bet RM300 on it again and i lose again. I just keep on betting and I owe my friend around RM2k. After that I feel that i should stop it as I can't afford to pay the debt. I told my parents about the debt and they agree to help me pay the debt but to promise them not to bet anymore. I am very appreciate for their help and I have never play online gambling anymore.

At last, I hope everyone think it before u bet.If you can't afford to pay the money you lost, please don't bet.
