Is the sports betting industry a huge mistake?

Literally got a fantasy app as an advertisement on this 😭👀

Underdog Sports betting played three ads on this video

Idk this making me wanna gamble 💯

Every year I put $100 in an app to gamble on college football, and that's all I get for the year. If I lose it, I lose it. Otherwise I keep playing. The fun is over when I've lost everything so there's still stakes, but it's not lifechanging. If I get up to $500 I take out $100 and have next year's fund secured already.

an ad with a 21 year old telling me how easy sports betting is just played before this video

Here in Brazil, the sport betting industry is already destroying the financial health of several families. The income of famous supermarkets are shrinking, a research showed that the reason for that is the growing number of poor people buying less food in order to bet more.
Besides that, the sport bet industry is the beginning for several others (ilegal) services, like Casino (which is ilegal in Brazil) and binary options.
Gamble is an addiction and when you mix that with aggressive advertising campaigns you get a serious social problem.

Legalizing gambling does not mean legalizing advertising to gamble. Now, governments are simply exploiting the population.

Kids watch sports and are subjected to ads for gambling and drinking every time they watch their favorite teams. It's proven that gambling is addictive and a disease. We are giving our kids the first hit for free!

Anybody get a sports gambling ad in the middle of this video? What a cruel irony.

my country is already ravaged by sports betting and iGames. its too late.

Gambling addicts are holding professional sports on their backs at this point.

Yeah sports will be Fixed and once a Sport loses its Trust with Fans it won't come back. The NBA has been Rigged since 2000 but this is the End of Sports.

Being allowed to bet with credit cards is insanity

i like to gamble

"i dont need help im just waiting for a big win"

Yes

It's pretty sad that the state is ok with gambling addiction so long as they get their cut, they're totally ok with people ruining their lives through gambling so long as the the money these people lose goes to them..

I’m Australian and the gambling culture and advertising here is unreal. It’s on pretty much every sports podcast and most the ads are about gambling as a social activity. The normalisation of gambling as a natural part of watching sports is grim.

Young men are targeted and lose so much money that they don’t know how to get back aside from continuing to gamble and somehow ‘winning big’. Financial frustration sometimes spills over into domestic violence surrounding major sports events. It is not a good sport landscape to be a part of as people don’t watch for the game, they watch to see if they won or lost money. This is not an industry America should want to indulge.

And Pete Rose is still banned…

Yes

When gambling you can only lose 100% of your money, but you can win 2000%. Do the math
