Online gambling games resemble the actual features of traditional gambling games but don’t offer a chance to stake, lose or credit actual-world currency.

Gambling creates a need for the reinforcement of social connections and group identity which allows people to form and maintain long-term relationships, often with those who share similar experiences, such as long drives or similar gambling methods.

In the main article there is a section titled “Prohibitions against gambling.”
