I shall continuing from Xingcai's concluding remark, "the casino is a gun" on Casino Accepted Widely.
You can draw the horse to the water but you can't force it to drink. The Chinese had a similar saying but cows were used instead or horses. Cows are known to be more stubborn than horses. This made me think of the picture below.
The picture was part of a manga from SavySeph's webpage entitled Gambler Jailed for Life which she subsequently pulled out to illustrate the Irish's New Casino Law.
Here is where most people including gambling rehabs bodies or councilors get the wrong idea. It is not the casino or gambling that need to be blame but the individual rotten gamblers who are to be blame. Responsible gamblers with proper self-control do not hand their entire fortune to the casino. They know their limits. Gambling rehabs bodies or councilors should treat the rotten gamblers and not stereotype the casino and gambling. Thankfully, XingCai did not fall into this common misconception.
I see the casino as a coward.
ReplyDeleteI see the casino as my banker. If the pin is right you withdraw money.
DeleteCasinos did not point a gun at your head forcing you to gamble.
ReplyDeleteIsn’t it ironic that people blame the things instead of examining their own weakness?
