He mentions it all the time, &quot;you won't break even, you won't win...&quot; He's quite transparent when it comes to this kind of content.8@imane I agree that gambling is something that shouldn't be advertised to kids, but I think people like train do it the right way.

If people weren't getting addicted and losing a lot of money then Train wouldn't be getting sponsored. Train saying those things doesn't matter because when you get addicted your brain doesn't think straight. That's what these sites COUNT On.111@Fabian129760 @imane There's no way of doing it right.

That being said, I don’t think RNG based gambling should remain on twitch in any form. Poker is fine to remain though as are other games of skill.8@1Mythos @imane Just saying “any gambling is bad” is incredibly short sighted and ignorant.

Twitch streamers are promoting the idea of watching/playing games for 10 hours a day which is extremely unhealthy. But is it twitch's/content creator's job to teach people how to live their lives?

Japan/Netherlands/Belgium have already banned lootboxes in games. UK is to follow I believe. If someone like twitch were to come out and say that yes, gambling is bad and we won't allow it in games. 1/24@imane This is for the people whining about banning games that have loot boxes.

But they don’t. They lose a lot and then hit a big one.That’s the problem. The big win is a big adrenaline rush and the viewer wants to replicate that… ain’t happening@imane The best advertisement against gambling and protecting kids would be if the streamer just loses ALL THE TIME.

Some feel that gambling streams shouldn't be allowed on such a major streaming platform at all, while others claim that it is extremely fun and engaging to watch.While the polarizing opinion of the steaming community remains, as far as Poki is concerned, she is definitely against these trending gambling streams on the purple platform.While it's something many known faces on the internet have called out, it doesn't seem to be declining any time soon in the future unfortunately.
